Beautiful family reunion getaway
We met at this place for my parents 50th wedding anniversary and it was beautiful! We enjoyed the grounds and all it has to offer with the pool, basketball & tennis court, 9 hole golf course. The inside was spacious. Kitchen is small for that large of house, but lots of bedrooms and bathrooms. We would stay here again!

Perfect For A Retreat!
This property is amazing. So many gathering areas throughout the house and grounds, in addition to multiple bedrooms (many en suite), two kitchens, and so much more. The pool and fire pit were delightful locations for both group activities and just hanging out. Great space for putting out buffet style food ourdoors and many tables for group dining. And lake access was a huge bonus! Daphne was wonderful to work with. We couldn't have been more pleased. We hope to do a retreat there again!

Forever young
Great property for a large group such as ours (15 adults and 6 children) ranging in age from 3 to 77. Lovely pool. Enjoyable 3 par golf course. Eclectic art… Burt, the caretaker is a real asset - attentive when needed and otherwise unobtrusive. Just one major negative- the owners/managers have chosen to do no recycling!

Great meeting space in relaxed surroundings-
Our board had a great meeting at this location - mixing retreat time with business. The spacious great room allowed us to meet in a relaxed setting with enough tech available (large TV to display presentations and great internet) to have an effective meeting. The kitchen allowed us to be self-sufficient meal-wise and the spacious dining room allowed a more formal meal or two, with catered-in food. The bedroom/bath set up are phenomenal, each unique. Thanks for hosting us again (twice before covid and now back again!) and allowing the team to make great memories!

Perfect property for large group
What an amazing stay!! Property was perfect for a group of 16 friends so we could all have our own Private bedroom And bathroom. Hired a local chef who made the stay even more amazing (Zac- with culinary abstraction). I Highly recommend him as well. We didn’t leave the property the entire time. Golf, tennis, pool, all of it works great. Burt, the groundskeeper was very helpful as well. We needed a couple little things (like firewood) and he promptly helped us out. We will likely return for a future trip!!

Gorgeous place for an active family
We LOVED our stay at Tir Na Nog! The outdoor space was serene and immaculate. There were plenty of activities for everyone - swimming, paddleboarding, kayaking, fishing, pickleball, golf, walking the grounds (bring your own gear!). The grocery store was 5 minutes away, so we could easily pick up dinner fixins regularly rather than needing to plan out multiple days in advance. Burt, the caretaker, was quick to respond to questions and communicated clearly with us. The house itself is spacious. It took us a few days to figure out the layout. Plenty or room for 16 of us to find a quiet nook or come together.

“Can we come back here again?”
Truly outstanding, century old summer home, updated with two modern kitchens and gorgeous bathrooms, mostly arranged en suite. The pool is unusually large, very well maintained, and a huge hit with the kids. You will need your own beach towels and pool toys. The 9-hole golf course belongs to the property, and appears quite nicely maintained, although we are not really golfers. The caretaker is instantly available and very responsive. Lake view is beautiful. There are convenient grocery stores, but when on-property, you feel like the only people in the world. Our (now) 17-member family goes to a different site every year — but this year, for the first time, the children asked if we could return to Tir NaNog.

Perfect for a family reunion
Our family of 9 adults and 4 children gathered to celebrate a 90th birthday in this amazing space. Adults all had their own en suite bedrooms (complete with bath products) which was great for those times when the togetherness got to be too much. While we spent most of our time at the pool, we also used the tennis courts, and a few fished on the lake. The kids loved the basement game room, and with several living areas everyone was able to relax and watch the sports games they preferred. The first floor kitchen was well appointed. We had a personal chef make dinners for us and he was impressed at how well stocked it was! I highly recommend this property for those special family occasions.

Magical experience for Family Reunion
We have rented so many vacation homes over the past years. This one was the best communication we have ever had from a host. Daphne went above and beyond to always respond immediately, even if it was 2 am ! We had so many questions and concerns, and she continually worked with us at every turn to make sure our family reunion vacation was perfect. The outdoor spaces and grounds were kept impeccable by Burt, the caretaker. He cleans the pool and empties trash daily, which is so important when you have a group of 20. You dont notice him there, but if you need him, he is always reachable quickly. It is hard to believe you are so close to Chicagoland, because once you make the drive down into the grounds, you truly feel you are in another world. But so close to run to the store if you need something. Beautiful outside porch to watch the sunsets. Access to lake, which was crystal clear and made for great kayaking. The golf course was amazing -and made for many family competitions. The guys got to golf with fathers, sons, uncles, cousins and grandpa - priceless. This could not have happened anywhere else. The final night we got to see a couple deer run across the vast lawn. We stayed so busy at the beautiful pool that we never made it to tennis or basketball. Great basement rec room with pool table and many small sitting areas throughout the house and decks to get away from the crowd when needed. Thanks for a great week!

Lovely time
20 of us met for a family reunion. the 10 bedrooms and multiple bathrooms made accommodations easy. Several fridges to store all of our groceries. House was spacious and allowed for quiet time away from the group. Pool and tennis court was a big hit with the kids. Outside grill was large and clean, although the grease trap was full. 9 hole golf course was used daily. Only draw back was lake access - a pier to fish off of would be a nice addition. Overall great property.

A Great Experience
We have been renting luxury villas since 2008 and this was the best experience. Some owners are clearly in the business just for the money and don't show an interest in the guest's experience. I've had several of these lately and was about to give up. This owner obviously cares. All 17 of us had a great time.

A wonderful place to reconnect with my siblings and extended family
We especially liked getting connected with family while Catering by Lisa took care of all the shopping and cooking food for the first three days. Without her taking care of the meals, we could not have spent the time with our family and she prepared much better meals than me. It was truly the highlight of the trip. The golf course and pool also provided an experience we could not have imaged. Thanks again, from Gary anbd Jayne

Wonderful House for our Family Reunion
This was a perfect house for our family reunion. Everyone enjoyed the space and the area. The inside space was comfortable and very well set out, well furnished. The pool was refreshing and well maintained. The golf course was in good, if not great shape. The tennis court needs some love but we played pickle-ball so no complaints from us. Also the property is like staying in the tranquil woods but just a few minutes from the city. Lovely time.

Great location for a group getaway.
We had 15 adult friends stay here for a low-key bachelor party weekend and it was great. 9-hole golf course, pool, a perfect space for yard games, several TV rooms for watching sports, plenty of sleeping rooms and multiple kitchens. We were extremely happy with our stay. Some of the areas were obviously less used and had a few cobwebs, which is the only reason I knocked a star off on cleanliness.
