Great location, safe, clean neighborhood. Unit was spotless, fully stocked, and first class. Our host Diane was an absolute superhero. We had a few bumps and wrinkles on the way to check in and Diane was there for us. She really went above and beyond to get us settled in and made sure that we made it to the Bulls game on time. Highly recommend this property and host.

Nice spot for a weekend stay! The host was communicative and rooms were as described. Comfy couch and nice seating areas on the front and back porches. There was not any coffee that we could find. The beach being right there is a big bonus! And not far from the red line and various restaurants/stores.

The property was exactly as listed. It is truly just steps to the beach and is conveniently located near the redline train station. The host, Diane, provided wonderfully detailed check-in and property access instructions that were accurate and easy to follow. Clean, well stocked with any and all essentials, new appliances in kitchen. Overall an excellent property and would definitely stay here again.

Everything was 'as advertised'. Very clean apartment. Street deadends at the beach which is just a few feet from the front door of the apartment. That made it a very quiet street. Safe neighborhood with convenience store nearby and several eating places.

Beautiful & L Accessible Stay!

We stayed here for a long weekend, and this was a perfect stay. Literal steps to the beach and lake, which you can see from the porch, was a real treat! Super accessible walk to the L made it easy to get around. Our host Diane was super helpful and made sure we had everything we needed. The amenities were great and everything was convenient and comfortable. We’d love to visit here again and can’t recommend enough!

I love this rental and I hope to return, the hosts are welcoming, friendly and easy to talk to. My one joke, in no way intended to take away from the glory of this rental, they have a strawberry stemmer, pineapple corer, kiwi peeler, apple slicer, cherry pitter, lemon zester, citrus juicer a bagillion wine glasses but not one serving spoon:)

This three-bedroom two two-bath home was recently renovated. The location was perfect - just a few blocks from the red line and a few steps from the beach. You can watch the lake from the front porch. Everything was perfect.
