Great Place to Enjoy Nature
Very nice and well stocked home with a huge yard to enjoy with our dog and appreciate nature. We saw deer several times each day along with all sorts of birds and other wildlife. Convenient location in town as well.

Nice Little Place
This is a nice little place in a quiet area of Dixon, easy to get to off of the main route. It was a great central location for us to stay while we visited family in the area.The two rooms downstairs worked out well for two of the guests that couldn't do stairs well and my son and I shared a room upstairs.Brought back many memories of going to my grandparents' farm. The old wood doors and floors just made it feel and smell the same as my childhood. Even saw some wildlife during our stay and we really enjoyed the front porch.

Highly recommend—great old farmhouse! Clean, cozy, and comfortable. My dog loved the 10 acres! Saw deer & hawks. And it was right in town, close to everything including a couple of beautiful state parks. Exactly how it was described in the ad. Note: it’s not terribly modern and chichi but it’s a cool house with lots of nice touches! Hope to stay here again.

Perfect Rustic Respite
My family rented the King Estate Manor for a long weekend and found it to be a perfect spot for meeting up, breaking bread and getting a good night’s rest in between the busy-ness of wedding festivities.
The home is definitely “rustic” but very clean and comfortable. Two downstairs bedrooms and bath were perfect for our elderly parents; while the upstairs bedrooms and bath were perfect for us more limber adults.
We all agreed that the best room in the house was the quaint screened-in porch with wildlife sightings galore! Watching my 80-yr old father’s eyes light up with each deer sighting was priceless!
Bottom line: The house was established in 1912 so it is quirky with old-school charm. With that said, our stay couldn’t have been more perfect. Thank you!

perfect for the whole family
we were in town for a wedding and had enough room for everyone, lots of deer in the early mornings. a older house and little rough around the edges but clean. landscaping could have been kept up a little better, but could have been the time of year fall and leaves and spiders/buggy, but over all a good stay.

Beautiful backyard
This was not the fanciest house we have ever rented but the huge backyard made the stay great. Beautiful trees and very secluded yet close to town. We spent the whole weekend around the firepit. We all slept comfortably in simple but very clean bedrooms. The whole house was very clean. The only downside was the very small kitchen but we cooked on the Weber grill so no big deal. Great Labor day weekend.

The house was very comfortable and guest ready. The yard and surrounding tall trees were beautiful. Our family thoroughly enjoyed themselves. Extremely glad that our furry family members were allowed to be with us.

Great Getaway
My only regret was not staying on the property more. We were greeted by an 8-point buck, two young bucks and a doe upon our arrival. Perfect bonfire setting. The back yard is way prettier than the photo. A bundle of wood and charcoal were left for our convenience. When we went inside the house, I was surprised we had to make all of our own beds. Bedding was laid in a bundle on the corner of each bed. The old house quirks were a bit challenging at times, like forced air to the upper level (bring a fan), tiny awkward kitchen, and the toilet parked right in front of one of the door ways of the jack and jill bathroom downstairs. None of that would keep me from returning though. It was a very homey, cozy accommodation. We were two families with 4 teenage boys. All the boys stayed upstairs with their own bathroom, while the parents had their own getaway downstairs. It was perfect.

Great to be back Home!
We truly enjoyed seeing all
The updated changes in Dixon and loved the secluded , wooded property and location of the house. The wildlife was pretty spectacular . We were lucky to find a pet friendly rental as well. Enjoyed the history of the family farm house and hope this house gets the necessary updates required for an older home especially to the upstairs to cont to make it one of the desirable VRBO’s in Dixon.

The house in the woods
Grand old farmhouse, clean, host was great. Could use a better entrance stairway with handrails. If you like tall vegetation this is the place. Short ceiling in some places upstairs. All this said the house is a good bang for your buck!

Wonderful time in Dixon!
We had so much fun on the property and exploring the surrounding area. The farmhouse is so comfortable and home-y. and the surrounding acreage...wow, what an escape from the city! We also went for many hikes in the state parks and big bike rides on the rail trail. What a great vacation!

Family getaway
Nice older home with a nice wooded property.
We took our boys 14, 12, and 8 on a mini spring break getaway. The home has a lot of doors and rooms to explore for younger kids. The woods have plenty of area to roam around and see families of deer. The deer were very active early in the more in hand the evening. We did find a deceased partially eaten deer in the forested area so be careful with smaller dogs. The kids thought it is pretty cool and understand it’s part of nature. There are plenty of trails and wooded area and the rock river to explore nearby too.

Sweet home with lots of outdoor space
We really enjoyed our stay in Dixon, IL! Found the Homestead to be a great place for the 6 of us- 1 child, 5 adults- plenty of space inside and outside. We took advantage of the HUGE backyard and the walking paths. The living room and dining room were our main spaces, but also taking time alone in a bedroom was easy.
As it's an older building, the central heat wasn't consistent, but it also didn't leave us freezing. I recommend that you stock up for the kitchen, we ended up at Walmart (10 min drive) to get things like tin foil, storage bags, additional cooking pans, etc.
It snowed a few inches overnight while we were there and the plow came out the next day, just had to shovel the stairs and a path to the car. We went into town twice and found multiple coffee shops and a bookstore- it's worth walking around and supporting local businesses!
