The house was everything we had hoped it would be and more. My wife and me, along with our four adult children were in town for a funeral. We couldn’t have been more pleased with the cleanliness and accommodations than we were. It was perfectly comfortable and relaxing considering the stress that attending a funeral can bring.
This was my first time booking here and it was amazing. The host was quick to communicate, and everything was smooth and easy to do. Definitely will book here again the next time my family is in town.
5 star all the way. Great home, plenty of room, clean, spacious and beautiful! The neighborhood is wonderful; close to restaurants, shopping, train, etc. Gracious host with speedy replies to questions. Our family had a restful, fun, family weekend. Thank you!
It was a lovely house very cute. Had a lot of character loves how much space we got plenty of rooms for our whole family. Beautiful neighborhood very well kept property so charming little downtown walkable right next to the Frank Lloyd Wright Museum. But more importantly for us, it was close to family. This was a wonderful location to see all of our family in Chicago. We will definitely be staying here again. And there was a cute family of bunnies that kept popping up every night that we see in the front lawn.
Great house with old world charm in a nice neighborhood. The property manager was fantastic. The only thing to be aware of is that all the bed rooms are upstairs, but there is only one bathroom upstairs and the other is downstairs. Overall, great stay.
You can’t go wrong with the neighborhood we lived there 9-12 years ago. The house has been maintained Very well. The hosts were very gracious Overall, great place. My kids were well adjusted and the weather was perfect.
The house is very charming and we had a wonderful time all being together, and celebrating my niece who was having a baby shower in Chicago. The host was very responsive and helpful with great restaurant suggestions. My sister left an important package behind and the host made sure to retrieve it and mail it back to her. Overall, great experience and would stay again.
This was a great listing for families. There is a park across the street. And the library and an additional park just down the street (less than .5 miles).

Beautiful house in a great location. It was beautifully warm during a very cold week in January.
The house was perfect for our family. $ adults and 2 children. Comfortable beds.
4 bedrooms and 2 full baths. One bathroom is on the main floor.
Comfortable furniture. Books provided for adults & the grandkids. Able to walk to restaurants. School across the street that the grandkids used the playground on Sat & Sun. So, the washer & dryer were used too!
There is another park playground down the street a couple of blocks too.
Will definitely try to book again next year.
Thank you for your hospitality.
Great place to stay for our conference in Oak Park. It was a great home in a beautiful neighborhood, and the owner communicated promptly throughout the process.
We were grateful to have this lovely, well maintained Oak Park home to stay while we visited our family. We had 8 people in our group and the home was the right size, and perfectly located. The neighborhood is beautiful for walking and the people were friendly. The owners were very attentive and a pleasure to interact with. While we were gone all day and didn’t spend much time in the home, it was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. Thank you Jerry and Gaby!!
Beautiful historic home in an awesome neighborhood. Easy walk to Oak Park restaurants, shopping and public transportation. The home was well-stocked, including a high-chair and playpen for our granddaughter. We were initially concerned that the rooms had window air conditioners, but the house stayed very cool. The owners were quick to respond to requests and questions. We highly recommend!
Family friendly home in safe, historic neighborhood
We had a wonderful stay! We loved this beautifully decorated home. We especially loved the welcoming front porch, the walkability (it was within walking distance to many places in town), the provided puzzles and games! We will definitely be booking another stay!
Wonderful experience all the way around! We hope to book this house again sometime this summer!
Best experience- I was a little leery being only the second guest but glad to have taken a leap of faith. The bedding is very comfortable & fresh. Coming & going was very easy with the electronic lock box. We came in for a funeral for my aunt & were thrilled to have been able to stay in the neighborhood that my mom & aunt grew up in. Lots of memories & love - we love Oak Park, IL!
