Weekend trip

We came into town for the Margarita Festival. By chance, we were able to check in early. No issues with getting into the house. Lots of parking right outside. The house is beautiful! Cute patio in the back! Reginald was very responsive. Even the neighbors were nice! One gentleman told us what a “great guy” Reginald is!! Everything was clean and well equipped. If you are looking for a relaxed vibe Reginald’s place should be on your list of places to stay.

In Town for Promat Expo at McCormick Place

What a wonderful way to experience our first time to spend more than a few hours in Chicago! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Had about 3 seasons worth of weather during our time in town, was very interesting. The home is comfy and unique. Shopping centers are very convenient to the property. Thanks so much for a fantastic stay at your property :)))))

All Good in Kenwood

Very comfortable and enjoyable stay. Quiet location, with nice restaurants in the area and a short distance to the paths along the lake. We were in town for a wedding, and there was ample room for our group. We all slept well, and enjoyed all the unique spaces in the home.

Great Place!

We came into Chicago for the weekend and spent two nights at this property. It's very spacious and quite comfortable. Parking is on the street but we had no trouble finding a spot right out front and then took an Uber everywhere in the city. We would definitely stay here again.

Affordable and lovely

We really enjoyed our stay at this property. The updated home was clean and featured an eclectic assortment of fun furniture arranged with various nooks for family members to find a place to chat or relax. We all agreed our beds were very comfortable. We were delighted to use the paddles and pickleballs provided by the host, there is a court located a short walk from the house. It was very easy to walk a few minutes and catch a bus uptown, less than 30 minutes total to get right in the heart of the city. We would definitely stay here again, thanks Reggie!

Home away from home

The property is beautiful and spacious. The pics on the site were identical. The small patio was especially a tie breaker for me and my family. It was equipped with patio furniture and grills. The kitchen had all necessary appliances and seasoning allowing us to prepare dishes for the family reunion. The home had more than enough towels in both bathrooms and the 1/2 bathroom was a beauty.
