About this property

Sunny Coach House in Historic Oak Park

This bright, cozy coach house is your ideal base in Oak Park. It was originally the coachman's quarters behind a 1909 Prairie-style house, now converted into modern guest lodging.

The coach house is above the garage at the end of a long driveway (free parking included!) on a quiet street, in the heart of the Frank Lloyd Wright district. It's a short walk from the FLW home and studio, Ernest Hemingway's birthplace, vibrant downtown Oak Park, and trains to downtown Chicago.

Cozy little place. Great, walkable neighborhood. Close to Oak Park and the Greenline to downtown Chicago. Driveway was sort of tight but that comes with this type of neighborhood. It was nice to have safe, off- street parking. I would stay here again.

Bright, open property complete with kitchen, large living room and walled sleeping room. We enjoyed the location and beautiful neighborhood of this 2nd floor Coach house. Excellent bed, and quiet for sleeping. Mini split worked well to control temperature of the rooms. Ceiling fan was helpful as well.If we need to come back we will probably rent again.Host was quick to respond to any questions and provided detailed instructions.

The owner of the property would answer my questions immediately. He was kind and explained everything. When we arrived the rooms were warm and lights were on. They had a book inside explaining everything as well. It was just a sweet small place we needed to visit our daughter for a short weekend. It was safe and quiet. I highly recommend staying here.

Windy visit

Overall we had an enjoyable stay. The garage door opener/closer (just below) is a bit noisy. The mattress was comfortable which provided a good night's rest. Very desirable neighborhood.

Lost 10 lbs

A great property. Great location. A bit difficult to find at night. The bathroom mirror, is the best feature at this location. When you look in it, you look at least 10 lbs lighter Only two improvements I would suggest is a way to find it at night and a little more pressure coming out of the showerhead.

College visits

We wanted a central location to visit several local universities. This was the perfect home base for us in a beautiful neighborhood. Bed was comfy. My son slept on the futon and had no complaints. Only issue was he is 6 foot and kept hitting his head at top of stairs for entry into living space, but we got a lot of chuckles out of that. They did provide directions to use mass transit, as well. We just weren't ready to take that leap. I would highly recommend.

A peaceful retreat

The coach house was a comfortable retreat from the hustle and bustle of Chicago. The apartment is spacious, clean, and well appointed with everything we needed for our stay. While our main focus was visiting sites and family in downtown Chicago, we also enjoyed strolling around beautiful Oak Park admiring the Frank Lloyd Wright houses. We also had some wonderful meals on Lake Street. The only time we had a question, our hosts answered almost immediately. Thanks for making us so welcome.

Oak Park Stay

Although quite small, the place is cute. There are some important elements in place to assure a comfortable stay, such as good lighting, good water temperature and appliances in good working condition. We are very familiar with the town, that's the reason for our choice, especially available parking. Sadly, the place wasn't clean. Dirty fridge and furniture very dusty. Too bad.

The place was really cozy. 2 adult sisters - One of us slept in the bedroom and the other on the couch which was perfect. The coach house is very convenient to restaurants and shopping areas in Oak Park. Very walkable. Its on a beautiful street. Check in instructions were clear and the host was very responsive and friendly. Getting there from O'hare was quick and easy. We would book again.

Great Location

Loved this location. Beautiful surroundings. Very considerate hosts. The cottage is located above a garage. For someone who has accessibility problems, you need to be prepared for maneuvering the steps. I must say that Andy was very accommodating by carrying our luggage up and downstairs.

“Older” travelers approve

My husband and I are in our 70s and we found that our safety and comfort level was more than satisfactory while staying at this lovely Coachhouse. A real plus was the beautiful neighborhood. Also, our host was responsive within minutes to the couple of questions we had when we first arrived. Our stay was overall a wonderful experience!

This was a great location for our weekend visiting family in this area but also for taking the train downtown. It was a comfortable space and roomier than being in a hotel. Location is very quiet, unless owner opens the garage door which is immediately under the sleeping area. I recommend this spot if you need to be in the Oak Park area!

Needs some attention to detail

Beautiful property in lovely part of town. It’s comfortable and just enough space for two. However it needs a good deep cleaning including rugs and baseboards because there is a build-up of dirt, dust and grime. Could also use a fresh coat of paint.

Wonderful!

Very nice little place in a very nice neighborhood! Intimidatingly nice houses around, lots to look at. ONLY issue is the place is above the owner’s garage, so the garage door opening and closing is a little loud. Not a major issue though! Very nice, would stay again.

Perfect location for trips to Chicago

My 15 year old and I stayed here for two nights when we came to Chicago for a concert at United Center. I loved having off-street parking right in front of the garage. The kitchen has every appliance you could need for preparing meals and the living room and bedroom were both comfortable. The neighborhood is gorgeous and there's so much to see and do within walking distance. Getting to United Center was quick and easy. We had everything we needed and the rental was clean. There are many options nearby for picking up groceries for or going out to eat. The communications on check-in and check-out were clear and easy to follow. It snowed during our visit (not a problem since street are cleared quickly and it's to be expected in Chicago in February) but we did enjoy just driving around Oak Park when we had spare time and taking in the beautiful homes and historic locations. My son and I agreed we want to come back when it is warmer and we have more time....we plan to stay here again.
