We were so happy with the house as it had everything we needed! The huge tvs made watching anything with the family super easy! There was so much room and really met all of our needs! Super close to local food places we got to try out! I would recommend this home to anyone looking for a great place in a big city! We loved how simple it was to get to soldier field and we had a blast at the game!

Property was fabulous and host Myra was wonderful!! This lovely 4 bedroom / 2 bath (both are full bathrooms complete with showers) home was beautifully furnished and immaculately clean. The layout of 3 bedrooms with full bath on main level (1 king room, 1 Queen room, and 1 Full room) with additional large bedroom with 2 double beds and another full bathroom with shower on the lower level accommodated our large party extremely well! I will definitely stay again!!

Beautiful Home with Wonderful Host

We chose this home for the four bedrooms so our family could come while my husband was in a Chicago hospital for two months. We stayed here for two weeks and the home is beautiful, with a fantastic host! Myra was so kind and helpful, going out of her way to help us. Highly recommend!

We had a great experience. Myra contacted us prior to our stay to ensure we had all our questions answered and she even sent over suggestions of things to do while in Chicago during our stay. The home was clean and just as she described on the website. I would definitely request a stay again when back in Chicago with a large group. It was plenty of room for all 10 of us. Kim

Home for Graduations

I returned back to my Chicago hometown to visit with family and attend two graduations. I needed a house that could comfortably accommodate up to 7 people, with an ideal location on the south side of Chicago. This house was perfect. It had all of the amenities and necessities to truly feel like a Home Away from Home. Checkin was easy. The owner was a joy to work with and super responsive. The house was exactly as pictured and we loved everything about it. Next time I return to Chicago for a visit with my family, I will want to stay here again and again.

Chicago Home Away from Home

This house is truly a "home away from home" The host has gone to great lengths to provide the best in furnishings and ambiance! From the bed rooms, to the living room, to the kitchen to the closets, everything is newly renovated and in top-notch condition. With the potential to comfortably sleep 10 (we slept 8) this house is set up for groups. The basement is taylor-made for a family trip or for a group of friends to gather and make memories. Our group loved the arcade, board games, and card games. There were tons of laughs and memory making for our group. The atmosphere was literally like a home away from home. It's proximity to sports venues and downtown Chicago makes it the perfect launching point for a Windy-City Adventure.

Whether you're planning a family getaway or a fun trip with friends, our space is designed to accommodate up to 10 guests comfortably, so I’m delighted to hear that it worked out for you guys. The basement is indeed a highlight, with its arcade and various games, making it an ideal spot for creating unforgettable memories together. I'm also glad that our location was convenient for you. With easy access to major highways, sports venues, and downtown Chicago, you're perfectly positioned for a fantastic Windy City adventure. I can’t wait to welcome you back for your next trip!
