Quaint Home in Great Neighborhood

My friends and I had a wonderful stay at this property. It is very cute and conveniently located in a nice neighborhood (Oak Park/Forest Park areas) with easy access to 290 that takes you straight to the heart of downtown Chicago. The house had many amenities and you can tell the hosts are very considerate/thoughtful. Would highly recommend!

Great stay

The home is warm and inviting just like the pictures. Parking in the back of the house was easy. We cooked several times, pans, spices and dishes are available. The neighborhood is only about 20 minutes from downtown Chicago. The fenced in yard was perfect for our dog. We enjoyed our stay

Great stay

My friend and I used this property as home base for a weekend trip to Chicago. The green line is a 5 minute walk, and then 30 minute ride to downtown. We also stopped at the conservatory which was wonderful.The Frank Lloyd Wright house is a 20 minute walk. We ate at several restaurants within walking distance. Citrine was our favorite and the Broken Tart for coffee and cake.The house was very comfortable and well stocked. It is very clean. All the bedrooms are off street side, and very quiet. The dedicated parking spot was great. Parking is tricky in Chicago, so we never drove once we parked at the house. I would definitely recommend this house, we had a wonderful stay.

Great Chicago property

Property was in a fabulous location - near to the airport and easy access to freeways as well as restaurants and stores. Off street parking was great and house was neat & clean - older but nicely remodeled. Owners were easy to reach.

Great weekend getawat

My family stayed this past weekend and had absolutely no complaints. Property is as advertised and was very clean and comfortable. My last minute request to check out an hour late was met with understanding and flexibility. Neighborhood was quiet and felt very safe. We would stay again. Thanks to our hosts for a great weekend stay!

1 week in Chicago

The house was great and everything was as promised. Easy access to Green Line trains, a friendly neighborhood, access to groceries and many types of restaurants. As a family of five we couldn‘t imagine a better place to start off our explorations of Chicago. Very friendly hosts who answered quickly and were very helpful. Thanks again.

Great house, great location!

This is our second time staying at this lovely bungalow for a month. The location cannot be beat. Two blocks to the El, which takes you right into the Loop. It’s walking distance to shopping, restaurants and bars. It’s in a quiet friendly neighborhood. It has a completely fenced backyard, which was wonderful for us since we were traveling with our dog. The property is very well maintained and there are plenty of supplies and a well stocked kitchen. I would highly recommend this house!

Family Friendly With Everything You Need

This was my first experience booking anything on VRBO and it was such a positive experience. The property was exactly as pictured and described. I was pleasantly surprised to see that even cooking spices and oil were provided, as well as tea and coffee. The location was convenient for my family to visit Chicago and some of the other suburbs. I will definitely book again next time I am in Chicago.

Perfect home away from home

We had a fabulous stay at this beautiful, clean, wonderfully organized, well-stocked home. The location was in a beautiful neighborhood, yet only three minutes from Whole Foods and Walgreens, and an easy drive downtown and to surrounding suburbs. As a runner, I loved the gorgeous jog to and around Thatcher Woods. Having a designated parking spot was amazing. We were visiting family in the area, and will absolutely come back to this home on future visits. Thank you so much for this perfect home away from home!

Weekend Getaway

Jim and Michele’s place was perfect for our friends weekend. It was very close to the metro line and easy to go into downtown when we wanted to. It was also walkable to downtown Oak Park which was very convenient. The house itself was in a quiet neighborhood and had a lot of charm. The house was also clean and had everything we needed during our stay.

Overall stay was amazing. Property had everything we needed. Only thing that caught us off guard was when we were checking out, we didn’t realize that people were coming to do yard work. It would have been nice to know ahead of time since they were opening gates and coming back and forth.

Just what I was looking for

Very nice home in the Chicago suburbs. I'm a single traveler and I found the home and neighborhood comfortable and safe. Easy 7 minute walk to the "L". I travelled downtown and south to multiple destinations without having to drive. I highly recommend this home !

Amazing Place with attention to detail

We loved loved loved this property. Seemed like the owners read our minds; they had every single amenities availble. We just had to open a cabinet and the item was there, from oil, spices, coffee, tea and sugar and more. The place was decorated very tastefully and it was very comfortable to stay. Already planning the next stay in October 24.

Perfect location for visiting Chicago suburbs

This vrbo exceeded expectations from the photos. The vrbo was extemely clean, well maintained, and our dog enjoyed the yard. We also felt very safe walking at night and really enjoyed the proximity to Oak Park attractions, and the green line el stop is a 5 minute walk away. We intend to stay again when visiting the Chicago suburbs!

Best Home Away From Home

The property was wonderful. A nice clean home with just the right amount of feel of being at home. It felt so spacious and was nearby the cute downtown area. We did a lot of walking but it was so wonderful to have a space to park. The owners were so fast to respond and were so helpful when I realized I would be getting into town earlier than expected. Honestly I plan to book again when we go back to the Chicago area.
