Lovely Weekend Getaway

Charming home just far away enough from the city to give a nice neighborhood vibe but close enough to drive in for sight-seeing. Our host met us at the house to point out different aspects of the residence and was able to give us tips about the surrounding area as well as transportation accomodations. Would highly recommend!

Just far enough from Chicago to commute back-and-forth, let alone the beauty and quaintness of Oak Park and so much to do there. Some of the best restaurants we've ever been to.

Great suburban location

If you don't mind driving or taking the train into Chicago, this spot was great. Lots of character in the little old house, and we could tell the owner was putting in a lot of effort to maintain its charm. The neighborhood is fantastic too...walking or a short drive to grocery, great restaurants, parks, etc. Would stay again!

Wonderful place to stay!

This is a great place - a real Oak Park classic Craftsman house with original design features, lovingly maintained and updated where it matters. Our stay happened to coincide with a freak heatwave, and in spite of mid-90s temperatures and soupy humidity for most of the week, we were always cool and comfortable in the house. The neighborhood is safe and cheerful, with lots of interesting houses and well-tended gardens - just a really nice atmosphere. And the location is super-convenient: everything we needed was within walking distance, with Downtown Chicago is just a short drive away. Ray, our host, was extremely responsive and friendly. Would happily stay again!

Excellent spot for lollapalooza!

Wanted a place to stay outside of Chicago for lollapalooza and this place did not disappoint! The house is gorgeous and in a great neighborhood. We walked to at least two different playgrounds and I felt very safe going out for runs. It was easy to walk to the train station and ride into the city. The host is also very friendly and gave us great local food recommendations.

Great Chicago Stay

We had a great time staying here. The property was an the perfect size for our family. Community was nice and quiet. Grocery store and parks were right around the corner. Easy access to the Highway and city. Backyard was amazing to sit and enjoy the evening. I would highly recommend staying here when you visit chicago.

Great place, just one suggestion

The house was great, comfortable, clean and convenient. Ray was friendly and responsive. The only issue was that the sheets and towels were washed in a very perfume-y detergent and we’d have preferred fragrance free.

Fantastic stay!

The house was amazing, especially the space you get for the price. It’s located in a beautiful neighborhood with grocery store nearby. The house was so clean, great house with character. Raymond was so helpful at check in, and accommodated us as we underestimated traffic and came in an hour later than planned. Kitchen came equiped with everything we needed. If we ever come to Chicago again will definitely try to grab this place again.

About the host

Hosted by Raymond Thomas

Host profile image
I'm a lifelong Chicagoan living in Oak Park for 28 years. I'm a graduate of DePaul University and a Technical Business Analyst for a major financial institution. For a good challenge I've finished the Chicago Triathlon 8 times and hope to do more in the future. In my spare time I enjoy time at the gym, motorcycle riding, and enjoying Oak Park and the City of Chicago.

Why they chose this property

In a word 'Location' answers the question. The property is blocks from the train. In a very safe neighborhood. Easy entrance to the expressway. On the nicest block. Just a great place to retreat after a long day of sight seeing.
