600 S. f. Quonset home overlooking horse stable in Beautiful Trout Valley. Fully renewed home located in the valley with walking trails, trout ponds on shared lot with owners estate home. Come Relax & Renew
Our stay was so relaxing and great we've already booked again. Property is beautiful and the house is perfect for a couple. Hosts were super nice and helpful. We definitely recommend!
This private cottage is nestled in a very pretty wooded area with horses and hiking trails. It was a perfect weekend getaway. Our hosts had everything in tip-top shape and ready for us. It truly is set up as a home, and we loved having a full kitchen and outdoor deck.
Place was as described. Very comfy and clean. Neighborhood is great. Only issue we had was not receiving our check in instructions and it taking a while to get the code for the door after we arrived.
This charming accommodation is so lovely and very relaxing. It is charming with the right touch of elegance in the interior appointments. You feel as though you are living in a private forest yet all the necessities for an enjoyable trip are within 5-10 minutes.
Trout Valley has a very engaging and interesting history. Be sure to read the books provided by the Host who makes sure you are properly settled in for making your stay the best it can be.
We will definitely return.
The Quonset hut was awesome. It has a beautiful setting that includes horses and wonderful hosts.
The hut is beautifully appointed, with lots attention to detail. You will not want for anything at the hut, save more time. It is very spacious and looks toward a historical barn. It has many walking areas to enjoy.
The hosts were gracious in their communications. This is an excellent property.
This is our second time staying here and we love it. The ability to walk around in the beauty of this community is what we enjoy the most. The owner is phenomenal and kind.
Would stay again when in the Chicago area the next time.
We enjoyed our time at this property. The Quonset Home was nice, clean and relaxing. We enjoyed walking the area that included a trail and animals. The owners were very kind and communicated well. If ever staying in the area again, we would definitely stay here.
Host was incredibly accommodating and friendly. Awesome property with interesting history- my son loved watching the horses across the road. Perfect location near trails, restaurants, and shopping!
This property was awesome! It was very clean (and Iâm a bit of a stickler), well-appointed, and in a lovely setting. The host was very communicative, which was reassuring. My trip was really to just unwind for a few days and I was really able to do so here. It was also still convenient enough location-wise for me to pop into the city for a quick day trip. I will look to stay at this property again and highly it recommend it to others.
The property was exactly what we needed. It was clean and conveniently located. Bruce answered all of my questions quickly. Definitely recommend. Thanks!
We enjoyed our stay and had just the right amount of everything to use this as our home-base while we visited friends and family across the area.
My favorite time was always first thing in the morning where I could enjoy a cup of coffee sitting on the front deck overlooking the horse property. Just such a beautiful and relaxing setting!
We purchased this property in 2014 and have fully rebuilt & renovated this original 1890's farmhouse. The Quonset was placed in the 1950's and we fully renovated it in 2017. We lived in the Quonset hut during the renovation of the main home until this past year.
When you drive into Trout Valley, you will feel like you have escaped to paradise. Unlike any community in the area you will experience rolling equestrian countryside. Trout ponds and streams, Tom Saywer pond, hiking trails and private roads that ramble down to the former Polo field and Fox River front park
Trout Valley was the home of John Hertz (Hertz Car Rental Founder) back in the 1920's. This area was his private estate until 1950. At that time the Otto Scherring family(Curtis Candy Founder) purchased this estate and made it the home of his private farm used for growing livestock & produce they used for his candy making. In the 1960's Scherring sold the property to a developer who built out the remaining homes that you will find in the Valley. We love calling Trout Valley our home.
