This was a great place to hang out with friends and our family. A nice selection of sleeping space, a big table to eat or play games together inside, and a well equipped kitchen.We especially enjoyed the backyard- pictures and descriptions are accurate. With the pool, grill, and multiple seating options, it was a great place to have some fun and hang out and visit. We highly recommend staying here!
Had an awesome experience! The rooms were beautiful and comfortable. The environment and scenery was beautiful, esp the garden! Parking was also great. The entertainment facilities are over the top. Overall greatly satisfied because everything, in general, was very well put and I had an awesome time. Thank you so much Marzena!
Great location, not far from some of the must sees in and out of the Chicago area. The backyard is awesome, it unfortunately snowed during our stay but during the summer months, you wouldn’t need to leave. The kids loved the themed rooms and all the Coca Cola things. Quiet neighborhood, owner was very responsive to questions, we would stay again!
Really lovely rental with a great amount of space. Property manager has put a lot of care into cleanliness and providing items for a relaxing stay. Food was available from coffee to breakfast bars to chocolate and more. I absolutely adored the cute game area set up which was particularly great with 2 littles. Definitely recommend.
The duplex was very clean. The decor and backyard was very entertaining. However, we thought we were booking a house and the unit was a duplex with a shared wall to neighbors. The reason we filtered VRBO options for a house was that we brought our 1 and 2 year old grandkids that can cry in the middle of the night. The signs in the house about noise sensors made our stay a bit stressful about keeping kids quiet. The listing should be clear that this is a duplex.
The host was so amazing and helpful! The house had so much charm and was a great location. Would book this place again the next time I’m back in town. Highly recommend.
The house is really beautiful and spacious, the host left us treats the kids enjoyed. The backyard was amazing, online says it has a pool but that was taken down but that didn’t matter there were swings and toys for the kids to enjoy. It was so easy to communicate with the host and she was fast to respond. I will definitely be coming back.
Our host was extremely accommodating and quick to respond. We were provided with everything we could possibly need and also thoughtful little amenities. The back yard was whimsical and enchanting. Both the yard and house were filled with toys to keep the little ones amused. Everyone had a wonderful time and I wouldn’t hesitate to book again and highly recommend a stay. Marzena is a kind, caring host and has gone to great detail to provide a wonderful experience.
Rentals like this which are so easy to find, enjoy and take care of are few and far between. This property has so much care it even has a multilingual storybook and all. You won't forget the wifi and there's tons of entertainment around so you know the whole time the owner has thought about making sure your stay is easy. That was the best part for me: easy of getting in, staying and leaving. I definitely recommend this rental for any group of up to 6 adults comfortably, especially in nice weather seasons with the MASSIVE back yard full of ways to relax. The owner is also VERY responsive, so you don't have to be worried about being left out to dry.
