We loved the open floor plan and location a few blocks from a community beach on Lake Michigan, ten minutes to Northwestern and about a half hour to downtown Chicago by car. The beds were comfortable, shower had plenty of hot water, and the wi-fi worked great. Although we never cooked, the kitchen was well stocked with dishes and pans. We enjoyed leisurely mornings on the front porch watching the pair of bunnies staying cool in the shade of the hedge. We never met the hosts because there was no need- the house rules and check-in and check-out instructions were clear and provided in a timely manner.
