Oregon, Illinois
Sitting in the Rock River Valley, Oregon, Illinois is a charming town with much to offer visitors. Three state parks full of hiking trails are nearby. Rent canoes or kayaks to float down the scenic Rock River.
Walking distance from our home is Park West with a trail, tennis courts, play area, splash pad and a sledding hill. Downtown Oregon's restaurants, bars and stores are a short drive or a pleasant walk.
For business travelers, the Byron plant, Woods, Etnyre and KSB Hospital are short drives.
The space
This downstairs unit of a two story duplex house has 2 bedrooms, bathroom, full kitchen, and living room area. This listing is for renting the downstairs only (we do not rent the upstairs if there are guests in the downstairs unit). The back yard has a small deck and is completely fenced - you will not share the backyard with anybody else. Well-behaved furry friends are welcome. The house sits on a quiet street with easy parking.
Guest access
There is free parking on the gravel driveway next to the house and also free street side parking as long as cars are parked in the direction of traffic. Oregon has no public transportation options so walking, biking, and driving are the options for getting around.

It was such a cozy home with top notch hosts!
Another great stay at Kathryn’s place. So communicative and helpful — a great spot to stay at both for visiting the state parks nearby and grabbing a bite in town.
We have stayed at this property twice now. My extended family lives in the area and this has been a great way for us to enjoy time visiting family, while also having a place to call home when the kiddos are ready for bed. They love taking turns on the day bed and trundle bed. It is nice having a full kitchen and all the luxuries of home while we travel. It is so much easier than trying to keep quiet in a small hotel room after the kids are ready for bed. We will certainly return whenever we are in town again.
The perfect getaway. Kathryn was the nicest host who provided the perfect amount of information ahead of and during our stay. The house is peaceful and cozy, the yard was perfect for my dog to run around in, and we loved adventuring through the state forests nearby and the proximity to town for a bite. Highly recommend checking out this area and staying here!
