Very thoughtfully appointed home. I did not initiate much communication with the host during this trip, but the one inquiry I made was addressed swiftly and effectively. Hopefully we did not disturb the neighbors too much with our trying to double dutch!

Superb stay!

We were at the property for a week, and it was perfect - great property, exactly as described. Clean, super comfortable beds, every room had more than what we needed. And, we were greeted with fresh baked muffins. Lots of extras that the host obviously does out of kindness. We’ll be back next year! Thank you!

No issues would stay again

Yes this property isn't in the best area, but the house itself is amazing. The beds are comfortable. The fire pit is nice and they even have a s'mores kit! There are games, balls and a hula hoop for the kids. We stayed here to see Beyonce in Chicago and we'd do it again. Even had a free parkpass to get to the beaches l. It's a 10/10

This home had everything we needed for our trip splitting time between Chicago and the Indiana Dunes National Park. The kitchen had every gadget we could have dreamed of needing, including a waffle maker. It truly felt like we were staying at a home, not an investment property with the bare minimum. But, the best part was walking in the home and smelling (and seeing!) how clean it was on arrival.

Great House, Neighborhood not great

While we had no issues in the neighborhood, it felt a little unsafe. The house is EXCELLENT. Clean and comfy beds. Everything thought of. Secure doors and great decor. So very cute inside. Loved the house itself!!
