Perfect for family wedding guests.
We were a group of 20 family members coming from all over the country for a wedding just a few blocks away. There was room for everyone, plus hairdryers, ironing board, iron, etc. needed to prepare for the big day. Target and Aldi, train station, and several coffee shops and restaurants, and parks within close walking distance made this the perfect location. Everyone loved staying here. We had good weather for porch sitting, and gathering outside after dark. Very helpful and available hosts too

Amazing
Home is classic Grand Chicago beautiful. Minutes from Target and Aldi and L station. Just a few blocks from the lake and loads of restaurants within a short walk. Home was very quiet, spacious and beds were comfortable. Well appointed kitchen and private/gated parking and yard. The host is beyond great. We got stranded in Chicago as a hurricane hit our hometown and all flights were cancelled. The host arranged for a longer stay and was beyond patience and compassionate

Super cute large house with amazing hosts
We used this house for my bachelorette party and it was the cutest old house vibes and absolutely huge! The hosts are sincerely the best and the house was incredible. The parking spots and back yard area was a huge plus for the property too. It was a little north of most the things we had planned but never had to travel more than 10-15 minutes in an Uber. 10/10 recommend this house to everyone looking for a larger house in the Chicago area!

Fantastic baseball trip
We had a blast for our father son baseball team trip to Wrigley. So much room. Loved the front porch. Our 16 year old boys loved the ping pong and pool table upstairs. Ana and Sebastian were amazing hosts and super responsive to everything we needed and even sent the boys donuts for our last morning. Easy 15 minute walk straight to Wrigley. 10 minute Uber to Michigan Ave and great restaurants. Having a Target a block away was key to getting groceries and anything else we needed. Clean house. Beds were comfortable. We had 10 people and were very comfortable. Would definitely stay again. If you are looking for a great place for a baseball trip, this is your spot.

Perfect for a big group
For a 100YO house, I was amazed at how clean it was, probably one of the cleanest rentals I've ever stayed in. Perfect for a big group - we had 11, a mix of couples and singles and everyone had their own bedroom. Front porch was perfect for the evenings, back patio was perfect for morning coffee. We made a couple Target runs during our stay, which is only a couple blocks away. Definitely walkable to Wrigley, about 20-25 minutes. Sheridan has some nice and not-as-nice areas along the way but we felt safe as a group. The walk to the closest lake area - Montrose Beach - is about 25 minutes too (the description says something about 3 blocks, but that's not true). We ubered to Mich Ave/Millenium Park, easy pickup spot on the street. The back parking spots were great, you just had to maneuver who was leaving when. It's ideal to have a buddy when you're the first person there or last one out since you need to go around to the front of the house for the key. Host was super responsive and sent us donuts one morning just because there was a shortage of wine glasses (and I had specifically asked about that). Not necessary at all (seriously, we can drink wine out of plastic cups) but very much appreciated! The kitchen got pretty hot because there wasn't a shade on the big window (that's one little suggestion I'd make) but it was functional, had a lovely sink, big fridge, nice big cutting board...and we all appreciated the nespresso and coffee maker!

Perfect place for a group trip
We were looking for a place where we can have our large group of friends stay together for the weekend. The mansion is massive with large communal spaces and high number of bedrooms, which gave us the perfect balance of private and communal spaces. Each bedroom had it's own window a/c unit too so we didn't have to worry about hot nights. Ana was a great host! She was very prompt and friendly in her communication. She had the kitchen stocked with snacks, drinks, and coffee. She even got us donuts for one of the mornings. The house is also conveniently located next to a Target, Aldi, and the Wilson redline stop, which made getting supplies or going into the city a breeze. The gated parking spots were also very helpful so we didn't have to struggle to find parking. Highly recommend!

Incredible Home, Hosts, and Location
We had a group of 14 adults stay for a low-key gathering and the property was perfect. Ana was so communicative along the way for all our detail oriented questions and we were able to get an early check in. The dining table was already set and ready and the chef we hired had everything she needed. Access to the home was clear and keyless access made it so simple for a group of our size. You do need to have semi skilled parkers to get 4 cars into the spaces in back of the house but as long as someone knows how to back in you are golden. It is an old chicago home, and with that comes creaky floors and radiator clicks. If you close the doors on the back staircase the noise doesn't travel up that side of the house. But be mindful if you have light sleepers to put them on the back side away from the main staircase. There was not a long cleaning list to complete for check out, so we were able to just do a quick sweep and head out in the morning. Overall, this was a 10/10 experience and the group is talking about booking the same home next time we get together.

Perfect house for friends reunion
Our group of thirteen college friends stayed in this beautiful house for a reunion weekend to celebrate almost 40 years of friendship. We had a fabulous stay—there were enough bedrooms and beds to accommodate everyone comfortably. The dining room table had enough seating for all of us. The kitchen was well stocked; there were even some snacks on hand. The house itself is beautiful and spacious, with large areas for all of us to gather, and small nooks for smaller groups to catch up in quiet conversations. Ana was responsive to all of our requests, and everything we needed was available. Great location. All agreed it was a perfect weekend. We will be back!

Perfect House for Friend Reunion!
I booked this house for a reunion of friends who met in the Peace Corps 25 years ago. It was the perfect house for us! The house is beautiful and spacious with plenty of common space for us to enjoy time together, but also 9 bedrooms, each with at least one queen bed so that we could all also have our private space with equitably sized bedrooms. The bathrooms are updated and gorgeous. The location was fabulous as a base for exploring the city. I would definitely stay here again with a large group. The hosts were incredibly responsive with communication, responding almost instantly every time! They also had lots of helpful recommendations for things to do! We absolutely loved our stay here. I would definitely stay here again if I come to Chicago with a large group.

Amazingly clean and spacious. The backyard outdoor space and the on premise parking made this the perfect choice for our all ages, family group of 17 to stay. A short walk to Target and Aldi made everything we needed so convenient. We definitely hope to stay here again.

Great location, great house for large gatherings
We had a fantastic time in this rental property. We had a large group of 20 people, and this house was able to fit us all. It is really close to Wrigley Field and all the great bars and restaurants in the area. It's literally a block from grocery stores, so we were able to stock up on food really easily. The L Train was also close, which made it easy to get downtown. The house itself was clean and functional. It's over 100 years old, which gives it a bit of a rustic vibe. But it definitely has been updated and looks great. Thanks for a great vacation!

Ana’s home is beautiful and charming and was ideal for our large family to celebrate my daughter’s college graduation. The home and yard are spacious and comfortable which is uncommon in Chicago. Their location is tough to beat and having an Aldi and a Target one block away was very convenient. Neighborhood is safe. We even walked with parents/grandparents to Montrose Beach.

Memorable Family Weekend
Our family convened at this magnificent house for an 85th birthday celebration. We had our meals in, and the well-stocked kitchen and grand dining room accommodated us perfectly. The living room with the large curved sofa was a great spot for Friday's arrival happy hour. And the upstairs billiards room was a fun place to hang out. The house is exactly as depicted and described - it is humongous! We had ten people staying overnight, so we had a couple bedrooms go unused. Everyone was comfortable with the sleeping and bathroom arrangements. The parking behind the house was a nice benefit. At one point, we had five vehicles parked there. The neighborhood was great, with enough places just a quick walk away (Starbucks inside Target, for example). This home is something special, and it was a great place for a memorable family gathering.
