A total gem!

My husband and I were over-the-top happy with the boutique. It was a wonderful stay on a cul-de-sac right near a delish coffee/bagel place. We met the nice owner of this amazing space that she meticulously and beautifully decorated. It will be our go-to place from now on!

Nicely updated new “old” home in the of Oak Park

Clean, updated and conveniently located property with bonus 2nd bathroom and well equipped kitchen. Complementary coffee and tea was available as well as standard spices and cooking oil. Having a 2nd living/tv area plus yard would be great feature for the warmer months. We loved how it was on a quiet cut-de-sac but close by to restaurants. What a treat not to worry about street parking in this area!

Clean home and charming neighborhood

The place was spotless and Krystal was super welcoming and clear with our communications. The neighborhood has lots of cute old homes and is convenient to a few restaurants, including Giordano's Chicago style pizza and a local ice cream place. We'd totally stay again.

Cute place!

The property was very cute and spacious. The neighborhood was chic and safe. The only recommendation that we would have is for the host to get a full length mirror for the girlies ;). Other than that the stay was perfect and the beds were so comfortable.

Wedding weekend

We stayed at the property while we were attending a family wedding. It was exactly as advertised in the listing. It was very clean. And had the amenities we needed to get us through a family wedding weekend. We enjoyed going for walks to the local parks, the neighborhood felt very safe. Our host was readily available if we had questions and responded very quickly.

Perfect Accommodations!

We had a wonderful weekend at the Chic Boutique! Location was fantastic - lovely, safe neighborhood. Parking was great - that was an area of concern for us but the quiet cul de sac was perfect with plenty of places to park. The house/apartment itself was perfect for us. Beautiful, well appointed yet comfortable - it had everything we needed and more. Quiet at night, too! We especially loved The Daly Bagel nearby. Highly recommend!

Pleasant home

I was pleasantly surprised about the 1/2 bathroom! That was a bonus with having four adult guests. Home was clean and beautifully decorated. We visit annually and hopefully this unit will always be available when we travel. As it is close to our relatives. Only suggestions would be extra bedding/linen/towels as a backup and a full-length mirror in one/both of the bedrooms. We enjoyed the complimentary water and herbal tea. Thank you!

Adorable rental

The property was just as it was listed and more. It was absolutely adorable and a wonderful place to stay. Very cozy and spacious. We enjoyed making meals in the beautiful kitchen that had everything you need. Great backyard and place to eat outside as well. Parking was easy. Chicago was only 8 miles away, so it was easy to hop on the tram to go into Chicago. Oak Park was fun to explore as well. So much architectural buildings (Frank Lloyd Wright and the Cheney House) in Oak Park. Krystal was very responsive if needed and gave us a list of things in the area to check out. I would definitely stay there again and also recommend it to everyone.

About the host

Hosted by K. Hagler

I am an attorney, born and raised in Chicago. I enjoy working out, running and reading. I chose to become a host because I enjoy providing visitors with a great local experience vs staying in a hotel. I ask that guests are respectable and follow all house rules.

Why they chose this property

Oak Park is a historical district and western suburb of Chicago that I have loved and enjoyed since a young child. The scenery and architecture are some of the best in the US.

What makes this property unique

Very cozy, residential property that sits on a very quiet cul-de-sac. This is a family oriented block and neighborhood
