Very nice!
The house is exactly as expected. Very nice, very clean, very spacious. The front stairs had a step that wasn’t the same height as the others so it caused some tripping for the first day. Other than that, everything was great! We didn’t use the grill, fire pit, or a lot of the other “amenities,” but the rooms and common space was very nicely laid out.

New Baby Visit with Another on the Way
We had a great stay with our 4 adult children, their spouses/partners and our new grandchild. The house was spacious, located in a great location and the host was super gracious and accommodating. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay again.

Family reunion
This is a wonderful property for a large family. We have all moved away from Chicago but came back together in our old neighborhood to celebrate grandmas 95th birthday. It was the perfect place!

Great place to stay with a large group
Most of the time when you find an home to stay in that allows for larger groups it is like packing your group into a sardine can, this was not the case here. We had plenty of room for hanging out, cooking and sleeping with plenty of space to spare. Our group's vacation was a great success and was elevated because we were able to hangout and live in the same space during our trip. Will definitely look to stay here again!
The home is stylish, clean, kept updated and has everything you could hope for compared to other listings.
