Sunny Coach House in Historic Oak Park

This bright, cozy coach house is your ideal base in Oak Park. It was originally the coachman's quarters behind a 1909 Prairie-style house, now converted into modern guest lodging.

The coach house is above the garage at the end of a long driveway (free parking included!) on a quiet street, in the heart of the Frank Lloyd Wright district. It's a short walk from the FLW home and studio, Ernest Hemingway's birthplace, vibrant downtown Oak Park, and trains to downtown Chicago.

Beautiful studio in the heart of the historic district with a very homey feel. I work in Chicago and this gave me an ability to cook meals and feel more “normal” than in a hotel. Beautiful street, nice neighborhood, comfy bed, great hosts. I would stay there again.

Lost 10 lbs
A great property. Great location. A bit difficult to find at night. The bathroom mirror, is the best feature at this location. When you look in it, you look at least 10 lbs lighter Only two improvements I would suggest is a way to find it at night and a little more pressure coming out of the showerhead.

Excellent Accommodations, Safe Location
I was in the area for a professional conference and greatly appreciated everything about this rental. It’s increasingly rare for everything to work as intended these days, but this stay was perfect: communication was clear and accurate, the lock set to my phone number functioned properly, the QR code in the room promptly got me on the net, and the climate control worked perfectly.

Great location that is only a few minutes walking to multiple Frank Lloyd Wright houses and his studio. The area is extremely beautiful and quiet, multiple great food choices and the green line elevated train are only a few minutes away walking. Great location, great stay.

Beautiful Location, Peaceful Stay
Thank you so much to these hosts. My family was in town during a very difficult time in our lives. These hosts provided us with a quiet, peaceful, and beautiful place to come back to and decompress. It was a short walk to several parks and other activities, plus the historical house were so neat to look at while we walked around the neighborhood. Bonus tip from the host about a farmers market on Saturdays with some of the best donuts ever!😊 100% will stay here again if we are back to the area.

Enjoyable Stay at the Coach House
The Coach House was comfortable, very quiet, with privacy and windows to let light in. . All the necessary amenities were present including WiFi, smart TV, a good quiet air conditioner and an easy to use padlock for downstairs door. The bed was very comfortable and the kitchen had all the amenities needed. The varied restaurants , parks , Hemingway and Frank Lloyd Wright houses and Green Line train to Chicago were easily accessible by walking through this beautiful residential neighborhood . An Oak Park taxi service had very reasonable fares on local trips as well as to O'Hare Airport . The hosts helped make this experience easy and pleasant by promptly responding to my questions and by their booklet with further information about the house and the surrounding neighborhood.. The hosts are organized and communicate very well. I will definitely recommend this Coach House to relatives and friends. Stan K.

A VRBO property that was private, well stocked, free parking and affordable. The hosts were easy to contact though my stay was problem free. The Oak Park neighborhood is beautiful, historic and a paradise only 9 miles from the Loop and a short train ride into a great American city. And for a fan of architecture and Frank Lloyd Wright this property is a wonderful home base.

Perfect accommodation in beautiful neighborhood
Came to area for short getaway to attend Cubs game. The rental was just as described. Clean, quiet and comfy. It had all the things we needed. We took Lyft in our two main outings as we didn’t know the area for feel up for the trans system. We enjoyed the outdoor area at the house. It has a firepit you can use with purchasing wood from the host. Tempting.. but it was very hot the few days there. The host, Andy, was 100% quick to respond to inquiries and I appreciate that! Just a note that there are stairs to enter the unit and if you have mobility issues plan accordingly. I would love to visit again!

Oak Park Stay
Although quite small, the place is cute. There are some important elements in place to assure a comfortable stay, such as good lighting, good water temperature and appliances in good working condition. We are very familiar with the town, that's the reason for our choice, especially available parking. Sadly, the place wasn't clean. Dirty fridge and furniture very dusty. Too bad.

Charming Garage Apartment
Wonderful location and neighborhood with responsive hosts. Garage apartment with charming ceiling details (watch your head going up the stairs if you're tall) and antique armoire with extra bedding inside. Easy walking to downtown Oak Park with lots of restaurants and shops. Close access to highway for trips to far suburbs and downtown. Off street parking is awesome. A bit of a challenge getting in and out with a larger vehicle, just watch out for the tree stump on the north side of the driveway. Just wish we were there when we could use the awesome patio and firepit!
