Romantic Tiny Home in Alton, IL
House
Alton, Illinois, USA

This historic carriage house was built in 1910. We added modern touches but really wanted to keep the character! You will have a bedroom with a queen bed, kitchen, bathroom with shower and living room. There is very fast Wi-fi, Smart TV, record player that also connects via bluetooth to your device, and hot tub. You also have a private outdoor area with seating.

We are in the process of renovating the large home on the property!

Guest Reviews:

- "This space is exactly as advertised. I booked for one night and wish I would have done two! It is secluded enough for you to enjoy privacy, but also close enough to stores if you forgot to bring something essential (like I did). The kitchen is stocked with basic cooking supplies and has retro appliances that work perfectly. The hot tub is a great touch for added relaxation. The bed is beyond comfortable… memory foam! Honestly, nothing I write here will do this space justice. You may think the price is high for a small space (saw that in some comments before my stay), but I thought my rate was fair and accurate for how the owners have curated it. When my stay was over (sad), it was nice to be so close to a must go place in Alton (Fast Eddie’s). I will be booking again in the future! "

Big enough for the entire family, multiple families or a group of friends!

I had no idea at the time that the home my parents first lived in when they married in 1954 was across the street! Your home was comfortable and welcoming as we gathered and told stories, relived old memories and built new ones. It was precisely what we needed!!

Cozy Ranch 2BR home with Office & Large TV
House
Godfrey

With coziness and small town charm, your home away from home combines spaciousness, comfort, and function. Nourish yourself in the well-equipped kitchen, or enjoy your favorite content on the 65" TV. Decant your wine with a candlelight dinner, and feed your soul by playing electric piano or guitar. Spectacular river views and hiking near. Owner stays here sometimes so there are a few personal items, but plenty of space for your things. Neighborhood rules require a request to book (not instant).

The space
This ranch-style 3BR house features an extra large flatscreen TV mounted in the combined living room / dining space. One 'bedroom' has been converted to an office/music room with antique writing desk, electric piano, and guitar.

The combined space ("L-shaped") along with the corner windows give lovely daylight to the main living area and a sense of spaciousness. The decor is traditional (primarily light oak finish with some dark wood finish in certain rooms). Washer/dryer also included.

Guest access
You'll have access to the entire upper floor with the exception of the closet in the office/music room, where cleaning supplies and other items are stored.

No access to garage or lower unit (guest house).

Climate control is set remotely. Please let us know if you'd like the thermostat adjusted.

Other things to note
Stays of 30+ days require an extra cleaning anytime between days 21 and 35, and once a month thereafter. This is to keep the space from getting run down, and create well-being during your stay. These long-stay additional cleanings are not included in the original booking's cleaning fee - but if you need them to be we can make a special invoice that includes them (for instance, if this is going to be paid by an employer, school, or reimbursed as a business expense). I'm always glad when I'm on a long term stay and get cleanings - I'm always happy with it afterwards. :)

We are required to screen guests that do not yet have a strong track record as guests on AirBnB - this means 3 or more positive reviews. If you don't have this requirement, we will request that you
1. provide a legible photo or scan of your Drivers' license or passport, plus
2. names and phone contact information for three character references, including at least one work-related reference and not including family members.

If the references give a good report and we receive your valid ID, your booking will stand; if not, it will be canceled without penalty on either side.

Occasionally, we may need to schedule a viewing of the property for potential guests. If this happens during your stay, we’ll notify you at least 48 hours in advance of the tour so you’re aware and can have the space tidy to showcase its best features.

***If your booking is less than 48 hours in advance, you’d need to get your references to call on your behalf ASAP. If they can do this, reply ‘yes’ so that we can accept your booking. After it is accepted, at that point, we will have access to each others’ phone numbers

Washer • TV • Smoke alarm • Fire extinguisher • First aid kit • Central heating • Carbon monoxide alarm • Piano • Hot water • Air conditioning
