Loved it!
The location was something straight out of a movie. Seen kids walking home from school, Halloween decorations on the houses and the beautiful changing colors of the trees. The home was everything it advertised along with a great little book I used to do some work while enjoying the sound of the neighborhood high school practicing band through the window. Overall the place exceeded my expectations. It even had a couple coffee pods to welcome us in. Love it!

Well thought out
This property has a lot of nice touches for a temporary stay. All the horizontal surfaces are not crowded with knick knacks. There are USB chargers in the lamps in the master bedroom along with in several outlets around the place. The towels and sheets are nice. The place is well-maintained and comparable to how I would set up my own place. We felt right at home.

Cute Apartment
Booked this looking for extra room than a hotel in the city. Was perfect for our family of five. Parking was not a problem at the street. Commuted in and out Chicago was approximately 40 minutes. Pretty public beaches nearby will cost you parking and daily pass but was a welcomed break from going into the city. Apartment is well stocked with towels and household items.

Great Choice
We loved our 2 week stay at the apartment near our children. The location was great, the apartment was spotless and extremely well equipped. The only thing I would change would be the TV service. We didn't understand ROKU and would suggest a cable TV subscription for guests.

Better than imagined
This was perfect for relaxing on a large couch in a nicely set up, clean upstairs of a whole house. The kitchen and bathrooms were updated, as was most of the whole place. Easy drive to everywhere on Evanston, plenty of on street parking and very clear instructions to check in and check out. Would love to stay here again.

An Evanston Dream
We had a great stay at the Harvey House. The place was adorable, clean with added amenties like bottled water, Keurig cups and a fabulous backyard. The neighborhood was safe and quiet with great restaurants a short drive away. It was also just a ten minute drive to Loyola so it worked out great for moving our son to college. We would stay again.
