Family Reunion

Jay was a perfect host, house location was great, house was clean, neighborhood quiet. Jay supplied us with coffee, which we were not expecting - thanks Jay, that was a bonus. :). If and when I come back to Chicago I know where I will be staying. Thanks again Jay. Best, Maddie

Great stay in Oak Park, IL

This stay is in a very comfortable bungalow just a few blocks north of Lake Street/Oak Park. It is easy to get anywhere in Oak Park from this location. We would stay here again.

Pleasant Stay, Gracious Welcome, Needs Anticipated

This was an immaculate older home in a very nice - and safe - part of Chicagoland. Convenient to Concordia University and not far from the restaurant/business district of Oak Park. The host welcomes you upon your arrival and provides and excellent, thorough survey of the property and answers any questions you may have. Unlike some VRBOs, there was no shortage of household items - practically every need is anticipated. I plan on staying here again in the future when on business in the area.

Our Charming, Delightful Stay in Oak Park

We had a small group of friends stay at Jay's property for our Homecoming weekend at Concordia University Chicago. It could not have been a more exceptional experience for us all. Jay left no stone unturned when it came to our accommodations! The smooth check-in and check-out process, games and entertainment center, and attention to detail helped make it a very memorable weekend. The personal touches within the home like the guest book and optional brunch service gave a next-level customer service unlike any other property I've stayed at previously. Jay has a gift for hosting, and we will definitely be looking to stay at his home in the future!
