The "charming cottage" is aptly named - just so delightful! From the blue velvet couch to the stained glass windows, from the lovely updated kitchen to the beautiful bathroom, it was just a great property! And the proximity to Wheaton College is ideal.

Very cute, clean cottage with great amenities and close to Wheaton College. Hosts were welcoming and responsive…dropping off some dish towels when they realized the cleaning staff hadn’t given us any. We enjoyed our stay. Do note the proximity to the train tracks and bring earplugs for night sleep!

Really beautiful and safe neighborhood just 3 mins from the train station. Access to the city was really easy!Beds were very comfortable, the only thing I'd flag is the steep stairs may be difficult for elderly or people with mobility challenges. Other than that it's great spot for all.
