My sister and I stayed here over Labor Day weekend to attend a My Chemical Romance concert, and we had an amazing time! This property was absolutely perfect for the two of us. It was super tidy and well kept, and we loved the neighborhood! We went on morning walks three out of our four day stay, and we loved the atmosphere of the neighborhood and surrounding areas. We walked on a trail close to the train tracks through the wooded area and it was so green and beautiful. We saw multiple wild bunnies in our yard during our stay as well as chipmunks and squirrels! Overall it was the perfect property for us as first timers to both Illinois and the Chicago area. I would absolutely stay here again.
We LOVED this seating area when the sun was starting to set and shining through the stained glass window

ABSOLUTELY perfect property for our family. We have teenage boys and the bedding accommodations were well suited so everyone had space. This is just a charming, well kept home.

Cute, clean cottage

This was a great place to stay for a short visit to Wheaton. It is very convenient to Wheaton College and downtown. Beds are comfortable and house is clean and well maintained. We appreciated the extra touches, like snacks and water bottles in the kitchen and fresh flowers on the table. Be aware that the staircases are narrow.

Cozy House by the Tracks

This house was great for our visit to Wheaton. It was cozy, cute, clean, and well stocked. The owners let us check in early and were great to work with. I would only mention that the house is right next to train tracks so just know that you will hear them often throughout the night and sometimes feel a bit of shaking. Other than that, the house and location was perfect.

Super cute home near Wheaton College and train station

This was a very cute older home within walking distance of the train station and very near Wheaton College. We stayed with our children when coming to Wheaton for a friend's wedding. It was very near a good playground, good restaurants, nice walkable neighborhood, and right by the College Avenue train station. If we had wanted, we could have hopped on a train into Chicago. The host communicated well and we enjoyed our stay. The beds were comfy and the space was clean and bright. The stained glass windows were a nice touch.

We Loved Our Stay!

Beautiful and cozy home! Location is centralized, safe and fantastic. This was our first visit to Wheaton, Illinois and we’re looking forward to visiting again. We were in town for a Christian conference. My husband and I stayed for three nights and enjoyed every minute of our stay. Extremely clean, comfortable, beautifully updated and lovingly decorated. Great neighborhood! We had everything that we needed. The property manager was welcoming and reached out in a timely manner with instructions for the easy to use front door lock before we arrived. We appreciated the little sign in the kitchen with house instructions that included the Wi-Fi code, etc. We felt so at home and had everything we needed. Would definitely stay again!
