Just far enough from Chicago to commute back-and-forth, let alone the beauty and quaintness of Oak Park and so much to do there. Some of the best restaurants we've ever been to.
This property is in a great location, neighborhood was very quiet but not far from downtown!
The house itself was spotless and so cute. We loved all the character in the home and it had tons of space!
Charming home just far away enough from the city to give a nice neighborhood vibe but close enough to drive in for sight-seeing. Our host met us at the house to point out different aspects of the residence and was able to give us tips about the surrounding area as well as transportation accomodations. Would highly recommend!
If you don't mind driving or taking the train into Chicago, this spot was great. Lots of character in the little old house, and we could tell the owner was putting in a lot of effort to maintain its charm. The neighborhood is fantastic too...walking or a short drive to grocery, great restaurants, parks, etc. Would stay again!
Wanted a place to stay outside of Chicago for lollapalooza and this place did not disappoint! The house is gorgeous and in a great neighborhood. We walked to at least two different playgrounds and I felt very safe going out for runs. It was easy to walk to the train station and ride into the city. The host is also very friendly and gave us great local food recommendations.
This is one of the best properties I have ever rented! The house was beautiful and immaculate! The neighborhood was safe and quiet! Host Raymond was incredible! He met me at the door, provided a walk through and was very friendly. I cannot recommend this property enough! I will definitely look for availability here on my next trip to the Chicago area!
The house was great, comfortable, clean and convenient. Ray was friendly and responsive. The only issue was that the sheets and towels were washed in a very perfume-y detergent and we’d have preferred fragrance free.
We were in town for a long weekend to attend a k-pop concert at the United Center. This house was perfect not only because it was just a few driving minutes from the concert, but is located in a beautiful, safe neighborhood. The CTA, grocery store, and places to dine were all within a few blocks radius. Raymond met us when we arrived and he quickly responded to any questions we had. The house was beautiful and cozy and I would definitely stay here again!
The property owner Ray was friendly, accommodating and very polite and responsive to all our needs. He met us on arrival to ensure a smooth arrival and explained where everything was and how to access all we needed. Ray is quick to respond to all inquiries and nothing is too much bother. We would have no hesitation in recommending Ray and his home. It was clean, spacious and has everything you need home from home.
We’ve stayed several times in Oak Park, and this place by far is the best place to stay. Quiet residential street, convenient to everything. It was spotless. Beautiful bathroom. Comfortable beds. Plenty of plush towels. Well stocked kitchen. Plenty of room, and Raymond, the owner, was terrific. I locked us out and broke the coffee pot. He was responsive and really nice about both things
quiet, safe and family-friendly stay in neighborhood
Our stay in this "Relaxing Oak Park Home" lived up to every one of our expectations. Our host Ray was super-helpful and informative before, during and after our stay. He was available and communicative when we needed him and conveniently several blocks away at his own home in the same neighborhood when we didn't.
This handsome Craftsman-style Bungalow provides those that appreciate this style with a genuine experience of simplicity and minimalism typified by the early 20th century Arts & Crafts movement. At the same time, the modern decor, furnishings, appliances and fixtures blend well with the Craftsman aesthetic and vibe, providing guests with all the early 21st century conveniences expected in other VRBO listings.
If you crave a quiet, relaxing stay in a safe and family-friendly neighborhood, within a short 5-10 minute walk to various amenities and local businesses in the vibrant Oak Park, Berman and Forest Park shopping districts, or a 25 minute drive or 40 minute train ride to downtown, this property is for you.
The property and, Ray, the host, was excellent. We had rented the home due to its proximity to Fitzgeralds. Ray was on the spot, easy check in. The weekend was HOT! The house was cool and comfortable. The kitchen was fully appointed. Street parking was fine.
Raymond the host is very thorough and actually meets the guests which is nice. Just some small housekeeping needed but nothing major. We had to buy and donated to the house a cookie sheet as none supplied except pizza pans. I made a big mistake of losing the key but Raymond thankfully got it rekeyed and was very accommodating in adjusting his schedule to help our situation. He definitely went out of his way to help us have an enjoyable stay. I would happily stay there again and would recommend it to anyone.
