The house was really nice and the upstairs space was plenty big enough for our group to comfortably exist in without tripping over each other. The house had so many bathrooms! Each bedroom had one! That was a great help having a house full of women.
Western Springs, where we were going for a music festival, was walking distance which very convenient .
The only downside was the suspicion that was shown to myself by the hosts about throwing a party, and when I was honest about my intentions(our group + handful of friends and a cheeseboard) and asked if that was okay, I was told no visitors on the property despite this not being stated on the listing. I was also told the host would be popping in on the Saturday and instead he was there on Sunday without a heads up, felt a bit like we were being checked in on.
To their credit they advised of some great restaurants/bars we could meet at instead with our friends and were very fast at responding.
