I rented the property as a surprise for my husband and 9 friends to celebrate his 50th birthday. They enjoyed it. They loved sitting outside on the rooftop and having the workout equipment. The accommodations were nice. The property was clean. Communicating with Nancy as I was planning the trip was very informative and timely. Nancy is a great host and I would definitely recommend this property.

Very nice stay in Wicker Park Area

The home was very clean and the host was great at communicating. We had a couple of power issues at the house so that should probably be looked into but outside of that it was a very comfortable stay in a good neighborhood.

Thank you for staying here with your family Tom. You took wonderful care of the home. We hope you will return again. For clarity, the primary bedroom’s switch tripped, which needed to be reset; something very minor. I don’t want future guests to think the entire house was without power :)

Great place and worked well for our family. Only tiny complaint was that if you stayed in the downstairs bedrooms if people were in the kitchen it was very loud. Otherwise it was perfect.

Thanks Jennifer. Yes, two bedrooms are downstairs so itʼs inevitable to hear some noise since the main level is above.

Windy City

House was comfortable for all guests. Easy access. Good location. Garage was a plus but a tight fit to get into with a large vehicle from the narrow ally and several trash and recycling bins. Roof top deck was a great space to socialize.

Thank you Annemarie. The city unfortunately moves bins during trash pick up. These can be moved to the side to allow room to enter the garage.

Family fun

House worked well for all of us. We enjoyed the multiple gathering spots, especially the outdoor space when weather allowed. Easy access to the 606 trail. Nancy was great about letting us know about events happening that could affect travel plans, as well as giving recommendations for restaurants nearby.
