Board retreat and group reception
The house is well equipped, conveniently located. Our group was comfortable staying in the house and it accommodated a large gathering of 50 or so easily. Parking for the group was challenging but our guests
figured it out. Kitchen had what we needed and the Methodist Church nearby wa very grateful for our excess catered food. one of our fellows, a piano tuner, even gave the piano a thumbs up for being in tune.

Lake House with easy access to McCormick Place
We chose this place to stay off the congested highways & expensive toll roads & it provided easy daily drives to & from McCormick Place for week-long trade show via DuSable Lakeshore Drive. House & parking were as advertised & secure, no issues.

Beautiful artsy house
The property was very clean, warm and welcoming. Beds were comfortable, and kitchen well stocked. Property manager was great at checking in, and readily available. The location was close drive to downtown Chicago and soldiers field. This made it easy for us to get to the concert we were seeing at soilders field and exploring downtown. Great location and an awesome space for a group of friends to stay. The rooftop deck and balconies had views of the lake and a nice place to relax after a long day exploring. The art work was amazing . I would rate this ten stars if I could.

Our stay in the Lake House was an amazing experience! My family and I loved the place! We found the house in great condition: clean, welcoming and ready to stay in!
Jessica was also an excellent and kind host! She was very flexible with our needs, and very accessible to communicate with. Every time I had a question she would reply within seconds!
Truly the Lake House made my family and I feel like at home. Next visit to Chicago, we for sure know where we’ll be staying at!

Prefect for anak gathering and beautifully decorated
The home is just as described in the photos. There was plenty of seating. The kitchen is nice and spacious. We had a family dinner with about 25 guests and this was perfect. The Chicago natives at the dinner fell in love with this place. The location was great for the beach, Hyde Park and downtown Chicago with minimal traffic. I would definitely recommend this place. I think it would be even better in the spring to enjoy the outdoor spaces.

The property was breathtakingly beautiful!
Upon arrival and entry, I was amazed at how beautiful and gleaming the initial glance was. It’s even more beautiful upon further inspection. The two terraces off the bedrooms were a welcome addition. The rooftop terrace and large backyard was the deciding factor in rebooking this summer. The owner is very friendly, easy to contact and conduct business with. I’m very impressed with this gem less than 5 minutes from my home. Thank you Jessica!

Perfect Chicago Christmas
We had a family stay with folks from around the US. The home was exactly as listed with details such as towels and toiletries thoughtfully provided. Arrival and departure were smooth and Jessica was super responsive. This will be our home in Chicago whenever it is available! We are thankful to have had a beautiful Christmas!
