Had some small issues like coffee pot and dishwasher not working, but host was quick to bring us a new coffee pot. Overall, it was a very pleasant stay and it was a very comfortable house that everyone that stayed with us enjoyed.

It was truly a home away from home. We visited the area for our son’s Navy Graduation. The home was warm and cozy, giving us a perfect place to reconnect.
My family came to the area for Navy Graduation. It was perfect. The host was very attentive and our stay was amazing! We wanted a place my family could be together instead of different hotel rooms. There is a great outdoor area as well with a patio table and chairs. Very Clean and the vibe was great. About a 10 minute drive to the base and the route we took to graduation only had us in traffic for about 30 minutes total. Perfect location for those attending graduation.
Great stay! Highly recommend. Host was ever attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. House is big and spacious and close to lots of restaurants and everything you’ll need to enjoy your stay. Would give 10 stars if I could. Thank you.
This place is perfect for anyone staying for their navy recruits graduation. Very close to base and lots of room for everyone. Our host was awesome. Had a few issues just with getting settled and she was great. Took care of everything extremely fast. Checked on us every day. I would highly recommend this vrbo.
We stayed for 4 nights, quiet neighborhood, super close to the base, host is awesome and a long time resident of the area. Great place for bigger groups coming to see loved ones graduating from the Navy!
This was a great stay. Cute house with all the amenities . The neighborhood was quiet and close to everything. Definitely recommend for any families coming in for Navy graduations, the house is five minutes away from Great Lakes Navy base.
Our stay was so positive. And there are not enough stars in the heavens to reflect our experience. From the house location,1013 Argonne Drive, and the proximity to the base: to Ellie 847 347 2052, our coordinating manager, to Kevin who immediately responded to a thermostat issue, we caused; to Ned, Great Lakes Taxi 773 738 1083, who was so helpful to us. We want to thank you.

Home was represented accurately in pictures. It is an older home so some issues may be expected. It just looks like it needs a dose of TLC and attention. If you're looking for something decked out with amenities for guests, this isn't it. We had the basics, but there were a few issues with items missing or not working. Prior to the stay, we had a really difficult time reaching the host. They didn't respond to messaging. Following our stay, they responded to the concerns we had and were much more responsive then.
Host was very hospitable and understanding. The house has a lot of character and is charming and homey plenty big enough to accommodate many people . Very clean it was equipped with everything you may need . Thanks Chicago ..
Great stay for our Navy Sailor’s graduation, minutes away from the base.

Host was responsive. Beds were very comfy. We needed extra towels and hand towels and they promptly accommodated. House was over priced for provision. We paid a lot because we wanted a nice atmosphere to spend time with several family members. The house was slightly dirty and dusty and
Its comfy family house.Near in Naval base,super market and restaurant. Well recommended to stay for graduation or vacation. The owner is fast to communicate. Our overall stay is ❤️.Thank you so much💕💕💕
