About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Bright Garden Studio

Not your mothers basement—Creating an atmosphere that is both sophisticated and inviting, this open STUDIO APT provides a sense of spaciousness, making it an ideal retreat for solo travelers, couples seeking a cozy getaway, or parents with small children.

Very Quiet— the only thing you’ll hear are the birds chirping. Tree lined street in a family oriented, upper middle class neighborhood. Diverse. Walkable.

CTA bus and train lines within walking distance.

There are plenty of street parking out front and especially on the side street. Pay attention to posted signage for street cleanings.

This place was everything needed for my weekend visit. Upstairs got a bit noisy for about a few minutes but after that it was fine.

Cute, clean and conveniently located Evanston studio apt.
We had a great stay in this Evanston lower level studio apartment while in town for our reunion and Homecoming weekend at Northwestern. The studio is clean, nicely decorated, good amenities, and conveniently located to both the NU campus and downtown Chicago. Having a dedicated parking spot was awesome too, as the off-street parking fills up quickly in the evening. My only recommendation would be replacing the really firm mattress with a softer one, or a memory foam topper. All in all we had a great stay and would definitely recommend this location to our friends and family.

Convenient fo Evanston and Chicago
This is a small studio but it easily fit three of us. Great if you're going to be out most of the day. Easy mile walk to the Purple Line.

Visit to Northwestern
I stayed for graduation weekend at Northwestern. Short Uber ride to university. Basement apartment was clean and well equipped. Craig was very responsive. Only caveat is that as this is basement apartment, expect to hear footsteps from the folks above.

Close to Northwestern
Husband/wife/teen needed a place for a weekend stay near Northwestern. The teen slept on the couch and was comfortable. Street parking was never a problem. It IS a basement property and you can expect some noise from neighbors above, but it wasn’t overly intrusive during our stay. Host very responsive and accessible. Worked out great for our needs.

Student in town for Intensives
I'm a seminary student, and I came into town for an intensive class. So, I was really only in the space in the evenings, but it was comfy. The location is amazing!!! The studio apartment was decently clean. The projector is VERY cool. There were a few details I could not find instructions for, like where to take the garbage out when I was on my way out. But I left a message for the owner and they were good about it. I would stay again. Recommend.

Beware
False advertisements all over. This unit is very noisy. The noise separation from the upstairs tenants is non-existing. If you need rest, this is not the place for you. This listing also indicated there was a hot tub. It’s actually just a dirty bathtub and nothing more. Beyond that, very dirty. Moldy not-functioning fridge. All my food spoiled. The toaster oven doesn’t look like it’s ever been clean. And the smell of the unit… I had to mask it with air fresheners. They made me sick with all of the disgusting aromas. The host was not helpful. I’d rather stay in a hostel than this place. Should be listed under $50/night at current status. Oh and the projector / tv was missing all remotes to function. I even downloaded an app and it still didn’t work. Maybe the VRBO from Hell?

Great for some just not for us
This garden studio is in a great location and was very clean. I liked the studio but my spouse and dogs didn’t. Here’s why they did not like it: my husband is 6’ 3” and the screws from the overhead pipes were at head level. The apartment was high tech (great for some but not for us); as two folks over 60 we had a hard time figuring out the lights and even the convection stove top. It would have helped if there had been specific instructions about these in the house manual. The 6 stairs leading down to the basement are painted black and they were difficult for my spouse and our one dog to navigate (they were steep and they couldn’t see them we’ll them; the dog was afraid of them). Because our dog was afraid it was a production to get her out—not the fault of Craig or the apartment but it did impact our stay. Finally, it was very cold and the thermostat didn’t turn on to adjust so we were cold most of the time.

Evanston apt hits the sweet spot!
My wife and I recently traveled to Evanston for a wedding, bringing along our two German Shepherd Dogs, and had the pleasure of staying for two nights at Craig's "Garden Apartment". It's hard to find a place to stay that will accept dogs, and even more so when there are two of them, each weighing over 70 lbs! So we jumped at the chance to be the first tenants of this new-to-vrbo gem! We found the apartment to be exactly as advertised, clean, neat and tidy, with what appear to be all-new kitchen appliances plus a washer and dryer in the back room. Craig supplied all the extras you might home to find, including little things like a range of teas and a supply of detergent pods for the washer. There is a huge ceiling-mounted and remotely controllable video screen mounted opposite the comfortable couch. In short, everything needed for a comfortable stay was provided. The neighborhood was nice and the neighbors I encountered while walking our dogs were invariably friendly. As Craig stated in his listing, there is ample on-street parking available. I would note that the stairs down to the apartment are quite steep and would perhaps be difficult for someone with impaired mobility to descend. That said, my wife and I are both in our mid-70's and had no trouble going up or down. Craig, the unit's owner, is very friendly and easy to deal with and stayed in communication with us when needed throughout our stay. What else can I add but 5-stars!
