About this property

Brightside Bungalow - Quiet and close to Campus!

Welcome to Brightside Bungalow! The light is always right in this house, we promise! Our bungalow is perfectly positioned just less than a mile from downtown Champaign, which is also a quick drive or bus ride to UIUC campus. Located on a quiet street, you get the respite of a cozy stay with curated amenities while being close to the action of Champaign-Urbana.

For the two bedrooms (one king and one queen bed!), we use high quality toiletries from Public Goods and high quality linens on our memory foam mattresses. There`s a porch out front, a well-lit backyard, wine glasses, a cocktail set, and toys for the kids. Tons of chargers, a yoga mat, and a pack-n-play! What else could you ask for?

Our stay was perfect for moving our son into his dorm at UIUC. The bungalow was cozy, spotless, and very well appointed, with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Communication was excellent throughout. We would definitely recommend it!

The property was absolutely perfect for our needs—the size was exactly right, and we couldn't have asked for a better location. It really made our time in Champaign both comfortable and convenient.Everything was well-maintained and welcoming, and we truly appreciated the hospitality. We would be happy to stay here again the next time we are in town and would certainly recommend your place to others.

This home was perfect for our visit to Champaign! We chose it because of its central location. The house is close to our family that we were in town to visit & gave us all the amenities that we needed! Our stay was just over a week long & we found the beds & furniture to be very comfortable.A problem did arise during our stay but because of Erin’s prompt communication & effort to fix the issue, I wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again! The reality is issues arise and there is nothing you can do about that but being confident that the host will be responsive & make every effort to resolve any problem makes all the difference!

Carole, you have no idea how much that means to us. We truly hope that everything goes smoothly for every stay, but just as in your own home, things break and need maintenance at the worst times! Thanks for your understanding and writing that here. We hope we can host you again when you come back to visit your family!

Clean, cozy bungalow on a quaint quiet street, just blocks from two bakery/cafes! Well appointed rooms - cozy throws in the living room; comfortable beds with quality linens, pillows, and duvets; and plush, large towels in the bathroom. Plenty of hot water and great water pressure. We were in town for a long weekend including a show at The Virginia Theatre, a five minute drive. Home is very close to many great restaurants - Sun Singer, Big Grove, Neil St. Blues, KO Fusion to name a few. Highly recommend this home, and looking forward to staying here again.
