Friendly, comforting, and supporting are amongst the things that first come to mind when I think about this trip. Pete was very supportive of our stay, and was readily available for questions, or concerns. House was in great condition
Twenty of twenty one members of our children and grandchildren gathered for a 4 day reunion in East Peoria. We were greeted by our host and his new wife and given a room by room tour of the premises. Even though we knew what we were expecting, we were still astonished at the size and beauty of what we saw. Choosing who was going to sleep in which room was difficult but it was finally accomplished.The host was excellent in taking care of our needs to the best of his abilities and each of us ranging in age from 9 to 72 had a fantastic time.
2 coworkers and I came out for a business trip. Great place to unwind and relax. Pete was great to show us around and Great Host! We will be back for our next business meetings for sure. Thanks again
We really enjoyed our 2-night stay. The owner was fantastic to work with & accommodated us if possible. Grandkids were mostly young so hope to come back in a few years. Definitely recommend!
This place was perfect for our gathering. Pete was a fantastic host. There was something for everyone to do with plenty of space to accommodate 20 of us.
Medley Manor has become a family tradition. Pete is a wonderful host I highly recommend staying at this property. Our family tries to stay here at least twice a year. We have no complaints, just plenty of praise!!! Canât wait to go back.
The place was even better than expected! We had a group of over 40 family members of all ages and fit comfortably. In the diner area we had more than enough space to ring in the new year and spend quality time together. The rooms were clean and the themes were very cool. The game room was a huge hit with kids and adults alike! Pete was the best host! He was very accommodating and willing to assist with any odds and ends. We will certainly be returning to Medley Manor!
Medley Manor was perfect for our family reunion, easily accommodating the 24 of us. Owner Pete has put a lot of time into decorating each room with a unique theme. The rooms were clean and attractive. We appreciated his availability to answer any questions, and the tour of the whole facility upon our arrival. We enjoyed our stay at Medley Manor and recommend it highly.
This is a fantastic, unique great house for parties small or large.
Pete has thought of everything with this place. You could seriously vacation just by staying on the property. If you want to check out the rest of the city, great food and bars are close.
We will be back. Awesome house.
First rented Dec. 2019. Great time then. Rented Jan. 2023. Even better with all the improvements. Plenty of room for gathering with family. Plenty of things to do whether staying at manor or going into Peoria.
We had a WONDERFUL time staying here! Pete was amazingly friendly, gave us a personal tour when we arrived and made sure we were all set up.
The property and rooms were just as described and so much fun! The pictures really don't do it justice and just entering is jaw dropping.
The game room was amazing, especially when the lights were off. We loved the common space for parents and the let the bridal party have the basement mostly. We are already thinking of gatherings we can have back here as it is perfect!!
We booked at Melody Manor and a great time was enjoyed by all. Pete meet us at the door and gave us a wonderful tour and information sharing time. The photos are a great replica of the rooms, each one so unique and a theme for all to enjoy!! We never left the Manor until check out because there was so much for our 20 grandchildren to enjoy and do while the parents enjoyed our family time together and played board games and cards and ate way to much. The kitchen was well stocked with kitchen wares and the complimentary snack bar was a hit! We would recommend this VRBO to any family or large group, you wont be disappointed!!
First off, let me say, our ENTIRE family of 27 loved the space and accommodations and amenities. The lower level game room definitely a PLUS for all kids and adults. The upper commons / food / visiting / area was amazing. None of us with several families ever felt cramped or in each other's space. Each room was as described and such a great fun overall experience! Our family unanimously agreed to rebook for our future gatherings.
Wonderful place for family gatherings and Pete is an amazing HOST meeting & greeting us and leaving "extras" and feeling at home touches throughout. We couldn't of been more taken care of and we thoroughly enjoyed the weekend.
OMG!!! We had SO MUCH FUN at Medley Manor! The themed rooms and bathrooms are EXACTLY as pictured, spacious, and clean. There was SO MUCH space! No one fell crowded or cramped. We had over 40 people of all ages (2-75) and had beds to spare. Pete was THE MOST responsive and generous host Iâve ever encountered. He left complimentary treats and water for us. There were an abundance of games. Nearly every time has a television. Pete was very respectful of the space being ours while we were there. He answered any question we had and offered suggestions for the area. We will definitely be back!
The place was great, large for family gathering. Noone was on top of another, many things to do for the young (or old) downstairs in the game room. We really had a super great time. Pete was super attentive and very knowledgeable as well. Only regret was wished it was cleaned from the many spiders/webs from the inside. Downstairs bedrooms were the most affected. But at least no one got bit. lol. It definitely needs more storage in the kitchen, as most, the one shelf is on the floor. not super hygienic there. Esp. if you plan on cooking and having lots of food, there is no storage for food. Maybe add a pantry closet???? And dishes from prior tenant did NOT clean the dishes, still had coffee rings in the cups But definitely will use again despite the nuances. Thanks Pete!
This was the absolute coolest house I have ever rented! We booked the Medley Manor for a combined bachelor/ bachelorette weekend and it was perfect! We had 25 people attend and we still had a ton of room for more. This house is great for couples or different families due to the amount of separated rooms. It can be hard to find houses to rent for large amounts of people with more than just bunk beds. This was perfect for that. Pete the host was absolutely fantastic! He was present upon arrival and gave us a tour of the whole house! He was quick to answer questions and even gave us some great recommendations for restaurants and bars in Peoria. Large projector in the main area for tv use. 3 refrigerators to store food for a large group. And the best game room with so many different sports/ activities. 14 different rooms, some with multiple beds, and they were all a super cool theme! This house accommodated everything we could have possibly needed. Everyone in our group was so taken away by how awesome it was and everything it had to offer. I would give 10 stars if I could. Hope we can return at some point!
Great place to stay! Pete was easy to communicate with and very helpful during our stay! The kids loved the arcade room and the bedrooms were very cool and creative!
We had just under 30 people who came to stay in this hidden gem of a place. The owner, Pete, was beyond incredible! We were given a tour of the rooms so we could pick which ones to use. How genius that the superhero room connects directly to the game room! His imagination and vision make each room awesomely unique. It's on a quiet street, yet just a quick drive to stores, a casino, and the river. Just know that if you are looking for a posh, upscale, extra fancy place to bring your group, then this might not he what you are looking for. If your fellow vacationers love to do something different and out of the ordinary and are there for a good time, then this place fits the bill quite nicely. Our family loved it so much we already have the placed booked for next year.
I love friends and adventure! I believe living life to the fullest! I purpose to know the great places around my home that have great food and entertainment. I love meeting new people and sharing experiences. I receive great joy by giving my guest a unique lodging experience they will never forget! Food and fellowship has to be part of a perfect day!
