Family friendly, lovely home, friendly neighbors, kitchen is awesome with all needed utensils. The view from the balconies and the patio are amazing. Beautiful sunsets and views of the Chicago skyline. Walking distance to the beach and zoo. Made many family memories.

This was a great house and location for a guys trip. Eight of us in our upper 30s stayed for 3 nights on a long weekend in August. The beach is a 5-10 min walk away, with a convenient path two doors down to get down the hilltop without having to follow the road around the long way. The beach itself is excellent; it is well groomed, a wide beach, the water was comfortable, and the shore slopes so slowly that it's great for playing catch and games in the water with plenty of space before it gets deep. Back at the house, we enjoyed the large living room and kitchen. The TV worked well, the sound bar was great for playing music, and the kitchen happened to be equipped with many useful spices, condiments, well-organized dishes and more. The fridge water dispenser and ice machine were not working, but we just made do with the faucet. The back patio was great, larger than it seemed in the photos. The fire pit was fun to use (the host provided a bit, and we found someone on Facebook marketplace to deliver us extra wood). The view overlooking the lake was great, very fun. The upstairs was more spacious than we expected. The master bedroom was very large, very nice, and had a great ensuite. Excellent views from this room. I appreciated the power strips attached behind the nightstands; easy to plug in for charging phones at night. - Guest rooms were great, love that each has a full bath- Even the double bunk room was spacious, good enough for 4 adult men1500 char limit, sry

Lovely home in a great location

We loved this home and had a great stay. It’s a very beautiful home that sleeps lots of people and has lots of bathrooms. It is super close to the beach. The host was kind and a great communicator. I can’t give full stars to the accuracy of the VRBO because some things weren’t working: one of the showers, the grill, and the ice machine. We weren’t able to use the garage which was a challenge since there is going to be lots of cars when an house sleeps that many people. Additionally, the sleeping arrangements changed since photos were last taken. This was noted in the listing but photos of the new arrangements were not available at the time. One room had bunk beds with pull out beds under them. This would be a great set up for kids, but there was no room to even walk in the room with the pull out beds out. Overall, I would recommend this home and would stay here again!

Incredible views!

We had a wonderful stay - house was beautiful and extremely clean. The views were really amazing - day and night. The layout of the house was great with the bedrooms upstairs (all with attached bathrooms) and the living space downstairs. Sunsets from the patio were awesome. Way more to do in the area than we had imagined. Great experience for all of us.

This is a gorgeous house. The views are amazing from everywhere in the house. A lot better than the pictures. With 4 bedrooms and 4 attached bathrooms, it is perfect for 4 couples. Justin is very helpful and very easy to communicate with.. we will definitely rent again.
