I stayed here with my family of five while we were on a road trip vacation. This was the perfect place to settle down for a few days while we visited the area and it was every bit as described. Very cute home with plenty of room for everyone to have their own space with a great location with lots of attractions nearby, we will be back!

The location of the home was perfect for my stay. I felt safe and it was near restaurants, shops, and gas stations. The bedrooms are very spacious and are able to accommodate a large party. The living area and kitchen was well decorated and up to date. I loved the host’s communication and support.

Great place, just a couple of bumps

The house is spacious, clean, comfy, well appointed and fun for a family. I think perhaps it’s a fairly new rental so some things are being worked out. Initial communications with host were great, but when check in time was approaching. we didn’t get a code to check in and host was unreachable. This was quite stressful since we were coming from several locations and it was cold! Had to make alt. game plan. Once finally in, we figured out how to turn on the water, but there was a leak in the ceiling. I think with a few more months this will be a great rental situation. It just presented a few hard issues for our group. I doubt the next group will have these issues.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review—we truly appreciate you highlighting the space, comfort, and family-friendly experience of the home. We also want to sincerely apologize for the stressful check-in experience you had, especially given the cold weather and coordinating multiple arrivals. That’s not the level of service we aim to provide. We’ve since addressed our communication process to ensure all future guests receive timely access details well before arrival. Regarding the water and ceiling issue, thank you for bringing that to our attention. It has been fully resolved, and we’ve taken additional steps to ensure everything is thoroughly checked prior to each stay. We’re grateful for your patience and for recognizing the potential of the home. Your feedback helped us improve, and we’re committed to delivering a smooth, 5-star experience moving forward. We’d love the opportunity to host you again in the future.

About the host

Hosted by Michelle Velasquez

Host profile image
Hi, we're Martin and Michelle — a husband and wife team and proud Chicago locals. We're family-centered people who love serving our community and creating spaces where guests feel genuinely welcomed and cared for.

Hosting means the world to us. Every guest who walks through our door comes from somewhere different, with their own story, and we love being a small part of their experience in the Chicago area. We put real care into every detail of this home because we want it to feel comfortable and lived-in — not just a place to sleep, but a place to truly enjoy.

This rental is also personal for us. It helps support our children's education, which means every stay directly makes a difference for our family. We're grateful for every guest who chooses to stay with us, and we work hard to make sure you never regret it.

We're responsive, attentive, and always happy to share our favorite local spots. Welcome to our home — we hope you love it as much as we do.

Why they chose this property


We chose Brookfield for its safe, family-friendly feel and the kind of walkable neighborhood charm that's hard to find anymore. There's a genuine sense of community here — tree-lined streets, friendly neighbors, and a downtown that actually has personality.

Being minutes from Brookfield Zoo was a huge draw for us. It's one of the best zoos in the country and practically in the backyard — something our own family loves and something we knew guests with kids would absolutely appreciate.

What we enjoy most is how everything comes together here. Great restaurants, local shops, parks, and the Metra just one block away — it offers the perfect balance of quiet suburban comfort with quick, easy access to downtown Chicago. You can spend the morning at the zoo, grab lunch on the block, and be sitting on the Chicago Riverwalk by mid-afternoon.

It's a place where you can truly relax, explore at your own pace, and feel right at home. That's exactly the experience we wanted to create for our guests — and Brookfield delivers it naturally.

What makes this property unique

What Makes This Home Stand Out

Space, location, and genuine care — that's what sets this home apart.
Most properties can offer one or two of those things. This one delivers all three. Comfortably sleeping 10 to 12 guests, it's one of the few homes in the Chicago area that truly accommodates larger families and groups without anyone feeling cramped. Four bedrooms, a private office, open-concept living, and a master suite with its own living space give everyone room to breathe and gather on their own terms.

The location is unmatched for what it offers. You're right in downtown Brookfield — steps from a beloved local breakfast spot, a spa, an ice cream shop, and a neighborhood pub — yet on a quiet residential street where you'll actually sleep well at night. Brookfield Zoo is just minutes away, the Metra is one block from your door, and downtown Chicago is 30 minutes from there.

But what we hear most from guests is how the home simply feels cared for. We thoughtfully renovated every detail with families in mind — because we're a family ourselves. We know there are many options out there, but at the heart of it, we designed this home for what we love most — getting family together for real quality time. That's the feeling we want every guest to walk into.

This isn't a flipped investment property staged to look nice in photos. It's a home we're proud of, maintained with attention, and offered to guests we genuinely want to have a great experience.

That combination — the size, the neighborhood, and the personal touch — is what keeps guests coming back.
