Escape to Your Own Private Island with Two Cabins in the Rock River! Enjoy 5 Acres to Roam! Only 1.5 Hours from Chicago!
Island living! Enjoy the secluded island life on this tranquil 5-acre island in Oregon Illinois.
Few can claim ownership of an island! But, this rare opportunity exists just an hour and a half from Chicago!
Your island sits just a short distance from the city of Oregon, Illinois along the banks of the Rock River a tributary of the Mississippi River, and one of the most beautiful waterways in northern Illinois. Nestled in the midst of over 11,000 acres of public lands, the town of Oregon boasts beautiful local and state parks, vibrant annual festivals, world-renowned arts and sculpture, riverboat rides, and so much more!
To make your “island life” just perfect, there’s a fully furnished main cabin plus a furnished dry cabin. The main cabin’s design includes a great room that opens to the kitchen. A wall of windows looks out to the peaceful river and fills the cabin with natural light. There’s a new oversized eat-in kitchen featuring a large island, electric cooktop, stainless steel refrigerator, and plenty of cabinets. Pine doors, walls, and ceilings of the main cabin add to the rustic feeling of your island home.
Sliding barn doors throughout the home add a touch of country charm and make great use of space. Both bedrooms feature cedar-lined closets and newer windows. The bathroom has been nicely updated with a new shower, toilet, sink, vanity, and ventless washer/dryer combination unit. Included is a new metal roof. The separate dry cabin, meaning that it doesn’t have plumbing, is also fully furnished. It can certainly work as a guest house or is great for kids.
In addition to all this, your island escape includes a new metal 36-foot L-shaped dock with bench and ladder, a 2008 Bass Tracker TXW with a 60 HP 4-stroke Mercury plus a boat trailer. There is a public boat launch about a mile south of the island. Enjoy fishing, boating, camping, and relaxing on the beautiful Rock River.
