    5/5

    Great location to Eastern Illinois University. Clean and well equipped kitchen. If we have more work in Charleston we will definitely stay there again.

    5/5

    Great property! Will stay here again! Better than pictures show! Only issue was communication with company that is supposed to exclusively assist us, (Evolve) was less than ideal. Property owner was great and not aware of over 24 hour response time….

  • Beautiful home, great proximity to EIU!

    5/5

    This VRBO certainly lived up to its top-tier reviews! We reached out for an early check-in and the owner quickly replied and was extremely accommodating. It’s a great location and 5-6 minutes to EIU and Charleston destinations. Owners have really done a lot of nice updates to the house - modern appliances and decorating was perfect! We lit a fire one night and enjoyed the stars in the back yard. Highly recommend!
