The house was spotless and very comfortable for our needs. Best of all it was not far from our son’s home in River Forest which made going back and forth convenient.
Great location in a quiet neighborhood! Beautiful Victorian house that was perfect for our company. Every amenities you could ask for and washer/dryer was excellent for our international co founders and they were very impressed with dry time. We will be staying here every time we are in Chicago.
A classic Oak Park home with easy access to Frank Lloyd Wright historic district, shopping and restaurants. Modern amenities and upgraded bathrooms. Safe neighborhood and a great front porch.
Perfect home for the Northwest Oak Park/Historical District. Property was clean and as advertised. The communication was excellent and the check-in was seamless. I would highly recommend this home and would stay again when needed.
The house was great although a lot of windows don’t have curtains. You can see through the entire house just by looking through the front door. The area of the house is nice.
Our family was in town to attend a memorial service. This home was perfect for our needs. Clean house nestled into Oak Park. The property owners communication was perfect and compassionate to our needs through a tough time with the loss of my brother.
House is older but matches with many houses in the neighborhood which makes it appealing. Updated appliances and clean throughout with plenty of space. Walking distance (20 min) to shops and restaurants.
We had a lovely stay with our relatives from Canada. The frank Lloyd wrightuseum was well worth it.I never could find the check in information on VRBO. That was probably my own ineptitude. The host messaged me right away and were super helpful.
It was a very nice neighborhood, with many restaurants and retail establishments in proximity. We really enjoyed our stay and our host was an excellent when it comes to communication.
