Amazing stay minutes from city hot spots
What a gem of a property. Everything was clean and well thought out. We enjoyed walks in the neighborhood. Kim’s place was comfortable and relaxing- we loved the special touches to make our pups feel welcome and comfortable. Will definitely look to re-book when we are back in Chicago.

Great Return Stay
This was our second opportunity to stay at City Sanctuary. Kim continues to be an outstanding host. She was responsive, helpful and flexible as we planned our Chicago visit. The rental is private, clean and comfortable and fully stocked with kitchen supplies and linens. The location is a straight shot to the lakefront and easy access to commercial areas. Without any hesitation, we’d recommend staying here!

Beautiful North Park location
So enjoyed this perfect sized home with everything you might need. Private and safe. Great communication. Beautiful sun bathed kitchen and bedroom. Fun Chicago neighborhood to walk in which includes Peterson's city park with many birds (Golden-Crowned Kinglets in a city park!). Also enjoyed the biodiverse backyard. Watched many birds rooting around for seed and such. Near our son's Andersonville apt and many great coffee houses, thrift shops and restaurants. At the end of a long full day, really enjoyed the wall projector movie set-up. Thanks Kim for a wonderful visit.

One bedroom, one bathroom, living room, fully loaded kitchen, outdoor patio and dining space, open concept living room with 20’ of mirrors, basic workout equipment, yoga mats, and high definition projector, which is great for workout videos and movies alike.

Amazing walking paths, including Chicago’s famous River paths, forest preserves, and even a waterfalls trail nearby at Peterson Park. You will be a short distance from all of Chicagoland’s best attractions, while surrounded by nature.

There’s fantastic restaurants nearby, including the epic brunch menu of Bryn Mawr Breakfast club and nearby Little India and the must see restaurants and shops of the Andersonville neighborhood.

What makes this property unique

Your home away from home. Cook a meal, take a nap on the sofa or workout with the projector playing a fitness video or music. Pet friendly.

This home has a 20’ x 9’ mirror and a high definition projector. You can face the mirror and take a dance or yoga class, or grill some dinner and swing in the hammock (seasonally in the warm months)
