\"St Geneva\" Private With River View! 10 minutes to Lamplight Equestrian Center
About this house rental
Situated in Saint Charles, this lovely house for $134 per night is a great option for your next vacation. Welcome to "St. Geneva"! I call it that because of the home's ideal location between 2 gorgeous and quaint towns-St. Charles and Geneva. Between the two towns there's plenty of shopping and night life to be had. The home is located along The Fox River. Just cross the street you can access miles of biking/walking trails. Feel free to take 2 kayaks over to the launch just a couple blocks away. Walk to the farmer’s market for fresh food to prepare in the fully equipped kitchen. I'm currently occupying the upstairs unit, so the common areas are the screen room, utility room (washer and dryer), patio with tables and chairs, and a grill. For chilly weather there is a gas operated fire pit. Sit around the fire on a cool night with your favorite beverage for a chat or roast marshmallows without smelling like a forest fire! Please give notice when you want to use the grill, fire pit, kayaks, and fishing poles. There is Netflix, Amazon, PS3, DVD player and WiFi access. I have plenty of apps for other streaming platforms that you may sign in with your credentials. In addition, there are good old fashioned cards and board games. Games and toys for children also. Take advantage of the spacious yard for lawn games, which are also provided. The neighborhood is mature with lots of large trees and beautiful parks. At the back is the Fox River with a street between the house and river and just to the south is a park that at one time was a Civil War training camp. Just across the river is Mt. St Mary Park with tress and a walking trail. Great for cleansing morning walks. The park also contains a basketball court, tennis court, skateboard park, pavilion, and children's playground. The neighbor to my north is very quiet. Shopping and dining are awesome both in Geneva and St. Charles. Fests and fairs are a large part of both towns. Some of Arcada Theatre general acts include: tribute bands, comedians, oldies bands, and murder mystery dinners. Particular artists include: America, Dokken, Herman’s Hermits, The Guess Who, Jon Anderson. For a different turn on live local theatre, the small yet charming Steel Beam Theatre in St Charles is a must. The Paramount Theatre, located in Aurora and just 30 minutes away, hosts broadway style musicals and plays. 10 minutes from Lamplight Equestrian Center. 7 minutes from The Q Center. If you want to visit Chicago, there is a train station in Geneva that will get you there. Guests will be given an entry code 1-3 days before check in which will allow them access to the screen room to their secure door where there will be a key for the deadbolt. Most often I will be around to greet guests when they first arrive. If I’m not able to be there I will definitely inform my guests. **** When booking, please let me know what brings you to the area and who will be staying with you in the house. Please be sure to register the correct number of guests so there will be no surprises once you are here. Extra guests will still be charged according to my rates even after check in. It’s better to be open and honest up front. All those traveling with you as well as those you entertain at the house will need to be informed of and be in agreement with the house rules. Please put any furniture, plates and utensils back in the original location before checking out**** Some guests have made mention of bothersome road noise. There are fans located in the closets which can be used as white noise. Ear plugs available upon request.

We came from 3 states for a longtime friends gathering. The attention to detail and amenities at the house were outstanding. Location super for walking into St. Charles or Geneva. And we simply enjoyed visiting in the comfortable living area. The host couldn't have been more responsive. Definitely set the bar high for future VRBO stays.

Michael is the perfect host! Friendly and available if anything is needed! The attention to detail in every aspect is foremost! We chose St. Geneva for our Sister in law getaway! Michael greeted me and gave a tour of his cute VRBO! It is spotless and fully stocked with everything you will need! We visited just after Thanksgiving, so it was decorated for Christmas and was beautiful!
The location is perfectly situated between Geneva and St Charles! Across the street is the Fox River and a trail that connects you to both cities! I highly recommend St Geneva!

Great location. Accross the river from a world class park and just minutes to great coffee houses and restaurants. Everything you need for an enjoyable stay is here. The host, Michael, stays behind the scenes but is ready to help in any way he can. Very clean, very tidy and a place I can recommend to anyone. Scott Deitz

I came to town with a friend to run a marathon in Geneva and our stay couldn't have been better. The house is adorable and Michael is extremely hospitable and detail-oriented. You can walk to shops and restaurants or just enjoy the tranquility of the property. If I come back to Geneva I will definitely stay here again!

My husband and I along with my sister stayed at Michael's house over a long weekend as my Son and his family in Batavia were hosting my daughter's family of 5 at their house. Michael was a gracious host who met us at the house to provide us with a tour. He was very thoughtful by providing my husband and I with a bottle of champagne 🍾 for our 40th anniversary as well as snacks and yummy banana bread from Harners. We enjoyed sitting outside in the morning and watching the bikers, walkers, fishermen and the occasional kayaker. The property is beautiful and in a good location for us. Thanks again Michael!

What a perfect place to connect with family. This lovely and well appointed apartment was the truly the best part of our trip. We spent our mornings and evenings relaxing and chatting in the living room in front of the impressive window view of the river. Our days were spent exploring Geneva and St Charles many offerings. Michael is the perfect host who is knowledgeable and accessible but never intrusive. We look forward to returning.

Well Appointed
The owner, Michael, met us as we arrived had snacks for us (delicious cranberry walnut bread, etc). He even brought an umbrella to my car because it was sprinkling. He explained how the door lock worked and then showed us around the immaculate, adorable, well appointed house. We plan on staying there again.

The place is well decorated, comfortable and has all you need (and more) for a wonderful stay. We loved the house. The location just can't be beat - with a lovely view of the River from the windows. It's a quick walk to the downtown area and you are next to two great playgrounds. It was an extra surprise to find a few kid toys in the closet. We will definitely stay again when visiting family.

Perfect Location and View
What a hidden gem! Right across the street and great view of the Fox River. We walked 5+ miles on the bike path and explored both St. Charles and Geneva. Michael, the owner, was a great host and the house has everything you need. Highly recommend.

Lovely stay at "St Geneva"
Our stay at "St Geneva" was a lovely experience! The property was very clean, comfortable and Michael made sure to welcome us with an overview of the house, the area and he had also stocked snacks and water upon our arrival. The house was fully stocked with comfy linens, everything we needed in the kitchen and I personally enjoyed the Nespresso machine. We loved waking up to the river view and quiet courtyard... the neighboring geese were always a treat to watch too! Hope to be back next summer!

This is our 2nd time renting this property and as before it’s a great comfortable rental for our family when visiting people in and around Chicago. Michael is very easy to work with and many amenities are available for use during the stay (coffee, laundry and soap, and more). Plus, so convenient to all the shops and restaurants of St Charles and Geneva. Will definitely return for a 3rd visit!
