This place is a gem. Denise is delightful. The lower garden area is so lovely, and our elderly dog had the time of his life taking in all of the sights and smells. Highly recommend!

Cozy Oasis Stay!

I stayed at Denise’s lovely home for the month of June. She was warm, friendly, helpful and provided everything I needed for the stay. I highly recommend Denise as your future host. Her gardens are gorgeous and I enjoyed sitting out there daily. The location is perfect and is an easy walk to downtown. Most mornings I walked to Bonita Bowls for my açaí bowl and brought it back to the gardens to enjoy. I look forward to next summer and visiting again!

We happen to pick a week that was very hot. The A/C window units took a while to cool rooms down and were loud to try to sleep through. Being in the heart of downtown Downers Grove was a convenience. That being said, Denise was a gracious host.

In the heart of Downers Grove. The host was very helpful in finding the place. The area was well kept and amenities abound. As a tall person I had to duck, but that was no problem. 10/10 I would rent again. It was very convenient.
