Glenesha, is a wonderful host! We were in for Navy graduation first time in Illinois even, the house is out of the way of alot of noise and traffic. Easy to get in and out of drive and streets, felt like just being on a different block in my town really. The place was as listed under some touchups and remodeling or what not, so of course our luck we had a bit of a hiccup but our Host was very attentive and graceful. I would highly recommend Glenesha and her property especially after renos are complete, shes been very busy and we cant wait to see the final result! We thank her for her grace and allowance of staying in her home for our families treasured memories! Keep up the work we love what you have done with the place!

Bootcamp graduation stay

If you are looking for a place to stay for bootcamp graduation this is a great place. It’s minutes from the base. The pictures are accurate and the house had plenty of space for five people. Close to shopping, fast food, and casino.

Our stay was wondering and the house is adorable. The location was convenient to the Naval base where our son is. We were there for his Navy bootcamp graduation. Nesha was absolutely wonderful and she made this trip to see our son that much better. If we come back, we hope her house is available!

North Chicago Home

Overall was okay. Very clean home. Keypad needs to be updated. Didn’t have access to some rooms. No washer and dryer available. House needs a few updates. Ice maker didn’t work. A/C didn’t work properly. Shower head broken. Fence gate needs replaced. It wouldn’t close or latch. Back porch not stable. Having to share a driveway was not the best. The neighbors parked on our driveway. We had to ask them to move. Closet doors were not in the tracks. Not a house I would rent again.

Proximity to GL Recruitment Center

The proximity to Great Lakes Recruitment Center, Sarge’s Meet & Greet, restaurants, etc. is perfect. We were in town for our son’s boot camp graduation and knew we wanted more room to hang out than a typical hotel room would offer. It was great to be able to relax, watch movies, just hang out with our sailor for the precious two days we had. This place has location, location, location if you’re coming in for boot camp graduation.

Lovely house

Check in instructions were easy. Nice neighborhood. Nice deck. Mostly fenced in back yard (fence has a few holes in it). House was very clean and spacious! The bathroom is kind of small so not much room for things in there. Only complaint were the beds. They were kinda hard. But we would stay again if we ever come back with the same amount of people!

There is a reason this property is so highly rated. First of all, from the time I reserved it, the owner was constantly in communication with me. Her directions were clear and she made herself available. When I arrived she was there making sure everything was in order. Her demeaner was kind and professional. The house is spacious and yes it is an older house, but the owner has done so many things to update it, we were very pleased. Finally, the cost was entirely reasonable. This was an all around wonderful experience and I wholeheartedly endorse this rental! Thank you for making my trip even more memorable!

Perfect for Navy graduation stay

We spent Wed-Sun for my son’s PIR, and the house truly felt like a home away from home. So many great memories of a lifetime made in the space! The best part was the hostess-Ms. Nesha, she worked with me on EVERYTHING, including giving me an extra 7 hours before we checkout due to our plans changing and not wanting to leave my son alone for his last afternoon of Liberty…which was SO meaningful and appreciated! The neighborhood is a *real* Chicago feel, and the neighbors are so polite and wave/speak when prompted-big deal for us southerners! I hope to be able to return to this house someday, I highly recommend it to anyone needing a memorable week/weekend with their future sailor!

The home is exactly as described…VERY comfortable beds and living room. Bed linens and towels are a great quality. Clean all around. I can tell great effort has been made to make our stay comfortable. Great location, as the home is just minutes away from the Great Lakes Navy Base where we attended Bootcamp Graduation for my daughter, as well as taking her back and forth from Base for her Liberty time. Close to shopping and dining.Only 35 minutes to O’Hare Airport, which was an easy commute. The owner, Nesha, was fantastic to work with!!! Please note that this is an older home, so a few squeaky doors and floors, which is normal. Also, a steep staircase as you enter the home, which can be difficult for some people. Overall, I highly recommend this home.
