Re-imagined 1880's cottage walking distance to Highwood, Metra, Lake Michigan

Escape the city and relax in our newly renovated historic cottage and gardens. Peaceful yet centrally located, vintage yet modern, Mere Cottage has so much to offer.

Inside:
You'll enjoy updated amenities in harmony with a distinctive vintage charm. The common area has an open layout, perfect for socializing. The kitchen and pantry (my favorite room!) are new from top to bottom and are fully stocked with any cooking gadgets you may need. Two bedrooms are joined by a Jack & Jill bathroom. The living room has a sofa that pulls out into full size bed.

Outside:
Jordan and I had fun redesigning the grounds from front to back. Enjoy the front garden from the rocking chair on our wrap around porch. Out back we've added a vegetable and perennial garden for you to take in. Dinner out on the back deck overlooking the garden is highly recommended!

Location:
Our cottage is located in Highland Park, about 25 miles north of Chicago on Lake Michigan. We like to think we have the best of both worlds- being in a quiet residential neighborhood with walking access to numerous amenities right around the corner. We're a quick 5 minute walk to Highwood (the north shoreā€™s restaurant district) and an 8 minute walk to the Metra train that can take you from Chicago to Kenosha and any place in between. We're also right on the North Shore bike path (bring your bikes!). Fort Sheridan is also close by and worth exploring for its interesting history, architecture, and nature trails.

Getting around
On foot:
Many errands can be done on foot. We have some of the best restaurants and watering holes north of Chicago within walking distance. There is also a Walgreens convenience store 2 blocks away.

By car:
Getting around by car is also easy. Parking is readily available almost anywhere you'll visit. You can get to downtown Chicago in 30 minutes in ideal traffic.

Train:
The Metra (our train system) can also conveniently get you to and from various attractions including downtown Chicago (a scenic 45 minute ride), Ravinia music venue, the Chicago Botanic Gardens, Great Lakes Naval Base and many more.

Bike:
Pack your bikes! We're located on the north shore bike trail. Head north on the trail to check out the beautiful Fort Sheridan, Lake Forest, and quaint Lake Bluff. Head south to Ravinia, Chicago Botanic Garden, and numerous other beautiful villages along Lake Michigan. I bike often and will gladly point you to some great hidden gems!

If you're flying into O'hare, we recommend taking an Uber to our cottage. We're about a 30 minute drive from the airport.

Six Flags Great America is also a 25 minute drive away.

Lovely!

I truly think this is the nicest rental we've ever stayed at. The space is so thoughtfully and beautifully furnished. The kitchen was set up so well, there were cute notes everywhere giving tips on how to use everything, and the outdoor space was enviable. Also, the owners were across the street, which was great to know in case we needed anything (which we didn't!). It was perfect for my family.

Perfection.This beautiful property has been so lovingly restored. My friends and I had a wonderful, relaxing weekend! It was delightful coming back from our Frank Lloyd Wright tour to our own tasteful ā€œhomeā€. There were so many thoughtful touches, like fresh eggs from their (off-property) chickens. We hope to return soon!

This was truly the most beautiful well maintained rental property I have ever stayed! Check in and check out were simple and uncomplicated. The beds were comfortable, and the location was super convenient for the event we were coordinating. Our only regret is that we didnā€™t have time to take advantage of the beautiful yard. Thank you again for being wonderful hosts!

A Very Special Gem

This is a small but very special gem of a house. Meticulously outfitted, spotlessly clean, and comfortable in every respect. The owners are attentive and generous, and very kind. Iā€™ve recommended it to good friends who go to the Highland Park area, and I plan to return. Itā€™s really lovely!

A Dream Stay

We had an amazing stay at Mere Cottage. Not only was it beautiful and immaculate but our hosts were so responsive and phenomenal. We will be coming back to this historical home and the incredible hosts that we had. We were gifted fresh eggs from their chickens, our 22 month old daughter LOVED playing in the backyard. They have a gorgeous set up and set smelled and loved on every tulip in the garden. The beds and amenities were so immaculate and the cleanliness was perfect. We cooked every meal at the house and we had every pot, pan, baking sheet and utensil you could need. They had the high chair and pack n play ready for us with clean sheets and a silicone bib ready for my baby! It was super adorable and they provided the most beautiful bouquets for the table for the dining room table, right from their garden!!! Highly recommend staying because itā€™s a breath of paradise away from the hustle and bustle.

Excellent location with charming, stylish and recently remodeled cottage. Very welcoming and a treat to stay there. Excellent communication with owners and we even had our favorite dark roast waiting for us. Although we didnā€™t have Thanksgiving dinner here, we had a few lunches and dinners and kitchen is well stocked. Had the weather been warmer we wouldā€™ve enjoyed the backyard for sure, thank you so much!

We stayed here for our wedding weekend and could *not* have been more pleased. Daniel and Jordan made our stay extra cozy and welcoming, with flowers, a card, and more. Check in was a breeze and they were around for every day question we had; they are the definition of hospitality. This little cottage is the kind of place youā€™d see in a magazine. Every bit of it is thoughtfully designed and considered. Stay here ā€” you wonā€™t regret it!!

Amazing Stay

This place is legit. We had great communication with the host (Daniel) before arrival. He was quick to respond to questions and very helpful. On arrival, it was apparent that they take great pride in their home. The gardens are absolutely beautiful. The front porch was darling and the keyless entry made it super easy to get in. The place is decorated so nicely. The set up is perfect. We used it as a home base for visiting friends and it made it a great place to relax before and after heading out. Comfy beds, nice sheets and towels, and although we brought our pwn pillows, theirs seemed to be good. The back deck is perfect for having some morning coffee or evening drinks. The garden back there was a mix of vegetables and flowers. My friends took note and said they wanted to do similar things to their place. The kitchen was clean and had everything you could want. Even the quality of the glassware was impressive. The hosts live across the street and are very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed speaking with them and they gave some good suggestions. You can't beat the location. Walkable to many restaurants, bars and shops. The town is just really cute and very easy to get around. I can't say enough good things about our stay. Next time we are visiting our friends, we are most certainly going to stay here again.

gorgeous historic cottage in dreamy gardens

Our family of four stayed in Highwood while visiting family in the area. This home is lovely. Beautifully updated with incredibly thoughtful touches both modern and vintage in every room - from cozy blankets, designer wallpaper, kitchen equipped with everything you could need for cooking. We visited in the summer and spent much of our time in the stunning garden admiring the flowers, vegetables and fireflies. In fact, we hosted dinner out on the back deck every night we were here. There is a sweet very easily walkable downtown just a couple blocks away. And a park and lake beaches the other direction. But honestly one of the best parts of the stay was Daniel and Jordan, who live across the street and were super responsive to questions and with secret suggestions for making the most of the area and the visit. Cannot recommend highly enough.

We really have fallen in love with this little cottage since the day we got the keys. Bringing this old gal back to life continues to be a special experience for us. We hope you enjoy her charm (quirks included) as much as we do! In addition to the home, this property is situated on a beautiful ravine edged property. Take a walk in the back yard gardens and you'll instantly get lost in nature.
