We are a three-generation family of 8, from Florida and North Carolina. At breakfast before leaving, I asked everyone how I should rate the house. It was unanimous from ages 5 to 80 that it was a perfect five and that if we were to vacation in Chicago again we would want to stay there. Now if I have to find a couple of things: Furniture is that of a four-star hotel, not five (but as my son-in-law said, when you have kids you don't want five-star furniture); no separate game table (but does have toys and books), and no large desk or easy chair in master bedroom. Dining table for six, not eight but you can squeeze eight around it. Bathrooms terrific, including a sauna in one of them. Awesome refrigerator. Fine kitchen appliances. Lighting and temperature control perfect. Two W/D sets, one each on bottom floor and top floor. Not a large house for eight, but seemed spacious. My son-in-law, a builder, took a couple of photos for ideas. Erika a flawless hostess.
