Great apartment. Great neighborhood.

We very much enjoyed our stay at The Arnold. Beautiful furnishings, well stocked kitchen and a quiet block that’s walking distance to coffee shops and restaurants. It was the perfect location for my family to either travel into the city or visit family in the northern burbs. Thanks John, you made us feel very welcome.

Delightful place to stay!

We very much enjoyed our stay in the apartment and felt right at home. John and Amy are welcoming and attentive hosts and went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. The location is terrific--walking distance to the local district with cute shops and restaurants. The apartment was large, well-equipped, and comfortable. Definitely recommend!

Great location!

This is our 2nd time staying in the very large, 3bd, 2 bath, 3rd floor unit. We've also stayed twice in the smaller garden apartment. You can't beat the location -- 1 block off the shopping district of Central St, and 1 block to the Metra to go downtown (or a handful of blocks to the "el" . And a 20 min walk to the beach. Perfect! John is a great host and totally responsive to any needs.

Great spot and awesome neighborhood

The property comfortable, hip and vintage. The neighborhood was great with tons of cool spots to eat and cafes all within walking distance. Also very close to public transportation if you want to visit the city. Great spot.

Beautifully decorated large apartment with lots of windows. 1 block off Central St with shopping, restaurants, coffee, bakeries and the Metra into the city. Also a lovely walk to the beach and Northwestern's beautiful campus.

Excellent

This summer we took a four week vacation in Evanston to be closer to our daughter and grandchildren. The Arnold was a perfect choice. It was within walking distance of the grandchildren and even closer, when we had time off, to restaurants, shops and parks. The apartment was spacious, clean, quiet, safe; in short, everything we were looking for. We will certainly be back.

Great Temporary Home During Remodel

We stayed here for a few weeks while our kitchen was being remodeled. Our family of four (two elementary school age kids, two adults) really enjoyed our stay. The apartment is very clean and well stocked with essential supplies in all areas, the decorations and art are very interesting/fun and the neighborhood is awesome for folks interested in seeing the sights/living daily life on foot. John is a great host and was in touch throughout our stay whether just saying hello as we came and went, or addressing any questions or concerns we had. We would recommend it for both vacationers and for others like us who are looking for a more long-term, yet fully-furnished rental solution.

Excellent stay in Harrison Evanston

We have spent two and a half months in John and Amy's apartment, first in Casita Reva and then the Arnold. Everything was magical; the neighborhood, the apartments, the location of the house and the hospitality of John and Amy. We will definetly return back to Harrison Evanston. Thanks for making our summer unforgettable and thanks for making us feel home in Evanston.

very nice condo in very nice part of Evanston

John and his wife are very hospitable and this condo worked out very well for my family. We were in town for a tennis camp. Lots of room and the place was very clean. Each child had their own room and large living room to relax. I would definitely recommend this place to others.

Fun flat in Evanston

We had a great stay at this quiet, clean, and beautifully decorated flat in Evanston. The property owners care about your comfort and satisfaction during your stay, and they have put a lot of heart into this unique property. We loved the location and walkability to restaurants, coffee shops, and a variety of fun stores just down the block. We will definitely recommend this property to friends and family.

About the host

Hosted by John Fell

Host profile image
I'm a lifelong North Shore resident who has a passion for the area and wants to share it with guests. We choose the 'off the beaten path' accommodations when traveling ourselves and we wanted to offer that option to others visiting our community.

NOTE: We have another VRBO rental - Casita Reva - listing #374086 in the same building. It's a 1 BR that we've rented since 2011 with many favorable reviews.

Why they chose this property

The building was built in 1927 and we wanted to recapture the elegance and decor of an earlier time. The apartment has plenty of natural light and soulful charm. Soft light and vibrant colors mixed with antiques and eclectic art throughout take you back to an apartment almost a century old - with the modern convenience of today.

What makes this property unique

The apartment is 2000 sq foot and would be perfect for a visiting professor or someone working in the North Shore or Chicago.
