Short get-away

My husband and I stayed in Kathy's home for a quick get-away. Her home is beautiful as well as the neighborhood. Quick walk to the L to go into Chicago. Kathy was a gracious host and we would definitely stay there again!

Sad to leave

We had the most wonderful stay. Kathy was an amazing host, extremely helpful and very friendly, I will miss her. The apartment was perfect, lots of lovely space and with all we needed and more. Lots of light and fresh air. The teenagers could find their own space. We loved sitting out front on the porch, watching the birds and greeting the neighbours who were very friendly. I will miss Floyd in particular. I hope we get to come again. Oak Park is lovely to walk around and explore. Frank Lloyd Wright architecture is stunning. Chicago was great, what a lovely city. Thank you for hosting us Kathy.

Loved location as it kept me close to everything I needed while in town for high school annual picnic. Kitchen was fantastic as I was able to do some baking and cooking for family and friends,sine this is my home town. Kathy is an EXCELLENT host and I plan on using her lodging again in the future.

Great neighborhood, perfect location

Just blocks from my husband’s childhood home; lots of good old memories! Quiet neighborhood, quiet upstairs guests. Close to downtown Oak Park, shopping, restaurants, parks. Apartment is very charming and cozy; kitchen stocked with needed dishes, basic pantry supplies. Kathy, the host, was friendly and available through texts, but was not a bother. We would stay there again!

Amazing

This location is beautiful, well maintained and we loved staying here. It was a little tough to manage only one bathroom but besides that, this place is perfect. The host was also very flexible with us and had great communication. I would highly recommend this location and I would stay here again when visiting Chicago.
