Brightside Bungalow - Quiet and close to Campus!
Welcome to Brightside Bungalow! The light is always right in this house, we promise! Our bungalow is perfectly positioned just less than a mile from downtown Champaign, which is also a quick drive or bus ride to UIUC campus. Located on a quiet street, you get the respite of a cozy stay with curated amenities while being close to the action of Champaign-Urbana.
For the two bedrooms (one king and one queen bed!), we use high quality toiletries from Public Goods and high quality linens on our memory foam mattresses. There's a porch out front, a well-lit backyard, wine glasses, a cocktail set, and toys for the kids. Tons of chargers, a yoga mat, and a pack-n-play! What else could you ask for?
