Chicago holidays
We had a lovely stay with our relatives from Canada. The frank Lloyd wrightuseum was well worth it.I never could find the check in information on VRBO. That was probably my own ineptitude. The host messaged me right away and were super helpful.

Family get together
House is older but matches with many houses in the neighborhood which makes it appealing. Updated appliances and clean throughout with plenty of space. Walking distance (20 min) to shops and restaurants.
