About this property

Chicago Bootlegger House Sleeps 11-22 with 3 parking spots

This is a single family home that was originally built and owned by a bootlegger during the prohibition period of the 1920's. He had a boat in nearby Belmont Harbor and would sail to Windsor Canada to pickup whiskey and then sell it from the backyard to locals. He was always on the lookout for cops. There is one remaining "escape door" in one of the bedrooms on the main level. We keep it locked, but it still works to get you outside fast.

Large enough to sleep 22 people with plenty of space to mix, mingle and play (including a foosball table). 2 car garage and outside pad for large vehicles. Awesome location in East Lakeview near Wrigley, Lincoln Park and more.

Family friendly for group of adults. Great garage rooftop patio to sit and enjoy time together. House has multiple large gathering areas (large dining room table, family room w/ adjacent front room-this has 2 high tops that seat 8, and large basement family room with adjacent game areas, besides the patio). Kitchen is sufficient to facilitate meals, and having a dual 12 cup coffee maker assures you won' run out of coffee quickly in the am for a large group. Location is such that it is located at the end of the block in a relatively quiet neighborhood that you can access the city hustle and bustle by walking a block or 2, but you're buffered from most of the noise. Our group walked to Wrigley Field about a mile plus to the northwest but were able to also walk south to north Lincoln Park too. Like the neighborhood, this home is older, historic with lots of character. Our group had a very nice stay here.

Great house, really enjoyed our stay here! Very comfy, plenty of room, had character and we liked it more than the pictures, and very convenient to get downtown or to Wrigley from. Bus and metro stops are right nearby, and also a short trip on ride-share apps. It's an older house so a bit squeakier in the basement than upstairs, but that's to be expected and I'd happily stay here again on future visits! I really liked the character, style, and location of the house - was very comfortable and we really enjoyed staying here!

Just stayed here for the 3rd time! The owner/manager continues to keep the place in great shape and even seems to have added small “niceties” to the property. Many places you stay at over time, start to get “let-go” but this one just gets better. We’ll be looking to book again as soon as our next dates are set!!

Over all a great place to stay if you want to see the city and all the attractions. The house was clean. The Foosball table needs some work missing a couple of screws, lots of board games for the kids but a lot of them were missing pieces and need to be thrown out.

Great Family Stay!

This place was wonderful! It was so clean, had plenty of space for our group and had everything that we needed. Location was perfect! Even though we had a rental car, there was so much within walking distance. So many great restaurants. Having that garage to park in was the cherry on top!

A unique property in a very safe, friendly neighborhood. The house was lovely, clean, in excellent repair with lots of room, beds, chairs, TVs, dining area, rooftop patio and everything you could possibly need. Walkable neighborhood with many places to eat and get groceries. Walked and took the bus. Garage was plenty big. Park your car and get out and see the city.

Fantastic stay at the bootlegger

Flew into town with a large group for a bachelor party. Walked up to Wrigley for an afternoon game, easily took the train downtown and to/from ORD, had a lot of fun at the myriad bars and restaurants in the area. The host was very accommodating and gracious, I couldn't recommend this place any higher.

Great stay, lots of space

Wonderful location, plenty of room, thoroughly enjoyed our stay! We were a group of 30-somethings in town for a weekend. Really enjoyed how close we were to the lake and to coffee shops, restaurants, and transit, but still on a quiet street. It was super convenient, really easy check in with door codes. We enjoyed the roof deck on one nice day, and overall had a great time. Lots of space for all of us! We would happily stay here again.
