Excellent stay. I needed a place to stay for three weeks on relatively short notice, and I am so happy I found Sara’s place. Great hospitality, comfortable bed, convenient location, and cute decor. I loved the access to the golf course and walking paths right out the door.

Great place to stay. Was here with my 13-yr old son while he attended a week-long program at Northwestern. We walked to the campus every morning, and he walked back to the apartment every afternoon. Ideally located.Host was very communicative. We had a major storm (like, tree limbs falling and lighting and downpour) during our stay, and she was completely in touch to make sure everything was all right. Lastly, I worked remotely from the apartment during the weekdays, and the wifi was solid for video calls.

Our host was absolutely amazing. The place was super cute and cozy feeling. Everything was very clean and neat. The airb&b is only 5 minutes drive to Wilmette which has really fantastic restaurants to indulge in. It also is very close in walking to the water. If we come back to Illinois we will definitely stay here again.

Spacious and peaceful home away from home

The apartment is beautiful, very roomie, and has lots of amenities. The kitchen has everything you need to cook a home cooked meal. The bedroom is quiet, comfy, and lots of storage. Bathroom and kitchen have heated floors! Garden area is very peaceful and vibrant with a variety of plants. The couch is very large and comfortable. The apartment has a very large well connected TV, and another large screen TV in the bedroom. Host was incredibly helpful with tips for the area and flexible. Great location if you're visiting Northwestern or hoping on public transport to Chicago. We'll definitely book again next time we're in town!

Great location. Clean and quiet.

Located in a nice, quiet neighborhood. The included parking spot was a definite plus. Very close to Northwestern University if you're in town for a visit. We were there to visit Loyola, which was a little further away, but a very easy (approx. 20 min.) drive. Close to the "L" train, which we took to downtown Chicago for some sightseeing. The basement apartment was exactly as the pictures showed. Everything was clean and well maintained. The heated floors were nice. It was perfect for my daughter and me. Also, the host (Sara) was prompt with her responses to any questions that I had and wanted to make sure that we had everything we needed.
