My three kids, husband, and I had a fabulous time in this charming space, and our only regret is we were so on-the-go with the tempting sights/sounds/foods of Chicago that we didn't spend more time just chilling in the home/neighborhood. There is a large grocery store and several yummy restaurants that are walkable, and the proximity to the Brown Line made using public transport super doable. The hosts were great with communication (very quick to answer any messages and even caught us before we left town b/c I left my laptop charger behind!) and there were so many clever/welcoming touches in the place: snacks, selfie station, and a glorious book collection foregrounding wit and curiosity. The kitchen was well equipped with staples and even surprise (!) pancake mix which saved the day for breakfast in the AM. The balcony in the front was an oasis; breezy and lit up at night and surrounded by green vines and trees. Just an FYI as others have said this is an older house; you will hear pitter patter foot steps upstairs (bring your white noise machine if you want to sleep in much) and the kitchen table was a bit sticky from years of use. But overall just such a lovely stay with super considerate hosts. Book it!
