3 BR / 2 BTH unit steps to the beach and close to Loyola
Amazing lake views from 2 outdoor spaces! This spacious 3 bedroom, 2 bath unit has a front balcony with plenty of seating looking out to the lake and also a rear deck with additional seating and lake views as well. The unit was recently renovated and has updated kitchen, bath and lots of entertaining space. The unit features in unit laundry as well as well. The space is approx. 50ft from the beach and is walkable to the Loyola train stop, as well as a variety of bars and restaurants along Sheridan. Also, there is a Starbucks on the block right across Sheridan. We supply extra linens, bath and cooking essentials and laundry detergent. We also have lots of games and books in the living room and during the warmer months, we have kayaks and paddle boards available to rent. So much to love in this amazing space! Exterior security cameras are present at the property. The camera locations are (2) in the front of the building, (2) on the west side and (2) in the backyard area of the property. There are no interior cameras in the unit.
We had an amazing time staying here. The location was wonderful, the accommodations were perfect and Diane was a fabulous host. We would stay here again!!
The property was exactly as listed. It is truly just steps to the beach and is conveniently located near the redline train station. The host, Diane, provided wonderfully detailed check-in and property access instructions that were accurate and easy to follow. Clean, well stocked with any and all essentials, new appliances in kitchen. Overall an excellent property and would definitely stay here again.
Nice spot for a weekend stay! The host was communicative and rooms were as described. Comfy couch and nice seating areas on the front and back porches. There was not any coffee that we could find. The beach being right there is a big bonus! And not far from the red line and various restaurants/stores.
Everything was 'as advertised'. Very clean apartment. Street deadends at the beach which is just a few feet from the front door of the apartment. That made it a very quiet street. Safe neighborhood with convenience store nearby and several eating places.
I love this rental and I hope to return, the hosts are welcoming, friendly and easy to talk to. My one joke, in no way intended to take away from the glory of this rental, they have a strawberry stemmer, pineapple corer, kiwi peeler, apple slicer, cherry pitter, lemon zester, citrus juicer a bagillion wine glasses but not one serving spoon:)
We loved staying here! Itâs a perfect way to experience Chicago. The beach is steps away, the neighborhood is beautiful and its blocks away from the L. We went downtown everyday and caught a game at wrigley and never had to get our car out of the parking garage! If you are driving to Chicago a parking spot is a must, we never would have gotten a spot out front. The only suggestion would be a shade on the front porch, on the east side (beach side). The neighbors have a sun porch and they donât use window shades so it felt a little weird hanging out there when they were napping but didnât stop us! The front porch is a perfect spot to hang out and enjoy a coffee or beer at night :)⊠we would recommend Dianeâs place to anyone and we will be cack for sure!
We had the best time in Chicago and Dianeâs place was perfect for us! We went to the beach every day because of how close it was. Diane was great to communicate with and we will be staying again next year!
This is the place to stay while visiting Chicago in the summer. It's a short walk from the L station red line and steps from the beach. The host provided towels and beach chairs, which made packing for our trip easy. The beach was clean and has lifeguards, it was never overly packed, even on a 95 Saturday. The apartment was immaculately clean and well stocked with kitchen utensils. I enjoyed drinking my coffee in the morning on the front porch too. The air conditioning was effective, so no one was hot. Will definitely recommend to friends.
We stayed here for a long weekend, and this was a perfect stay. Literal steps to the beach and lake, which you can see from the porch, was a real treat! Super accessible walk to the L made it easy to get around. Our host Diane was super helpful and made sure we had everything we needed. The amenities were great and everything was convenient and comfortable. Weâd love to visit here again and canât recommend enough!
The description about the property was very accurate. Very nice and clean. The kitchen was well stocked with cookware. I highly recommend this place. The pr
We were visiting our kids who go to college in the area. It was such a great location and place to meet up. The garage was a nice plus - we just parked for the weekend and rode the el to get around. The apartment is well appointed and cozy.
The place was exactly as described, clean, modern and easy to find. Off site parking is a little difficult as it is in an alley way and only fits small to mid size vehicle. You're backing skills will be tested and you have to embrace your inner Austin Powers. The biggest issue we had was the upstairs apartment because they were very loud the first night, but that wasn't something the hosts could control.
This is a great VRBO, very very clean, walking distance to the beach and several restaurants. Host was quick to respond and gracious with a last minute late check out request.
Had a wonderful time. The place was spotless and very quiet! Enjoyed sunrise on the beach. Close to everything you may need. Easy check in and check out. Will stay again when in the area!
I know there are already a number of positive reviews about this place, but I'm adding one more. I grew up in Chicago but have moved out of state for the last 20ish years. This is the type of place I would LIVE in. I loved it. Here is a rundown of all the things I loved:
*THE LAKE - I took a walk on the lake every morning
*The outdoor space on the front and back of the unit is covered and usable
*The couch in the living room is so comfy
*The beds were very comfy
*Everything is updated - kitchen, bathrooms, washer/dryer
*The "little" things - shampoo, soap, pancake syrup, ketchup, mustard, salt, pepper, detergent, TWO PLY toilet paper!
*Communication with Diane was clear and quick
It was a great stay. After long and tiring days out and about I felt like I was coming home.
Great Location to Loyola University and Lake Michigan Beach
Fantastic rental close to Loyola and beach of Lake Michigan. Property was clean and was well equipped with anything you may need. Great patio in front and back and spacious living room to gather and hang out. Property owner was responsive and helpful with any questions. Would highly recommend.
This house was everything I could have imagined and more! Just steps to the lake and a beautiful path. And a couple of blocks to coffee, sushi and all manner of food. The Whole Foods is walking distance. the house is beautiful, well appointed, and warm. I'll be back!!
This place was great! Less than a 5 minute walk from the Loyola stop on the red line. It was super close to the water! The neighborhood is quiet at night. The place was super cozy and clean and the host was extremely kind and responsive! Everything was amazing! We couldn't have asked for a better weekend or a place to stay! We would definitely stay here again! Highly recommended!
Everything was as described, and the place was beautifully kept. The beach access was literally steps away as were several restaurants. We were visiting our Loyola student for a long weekend, and the location was perfect for this.
Had a great stay at this lovely and impeccably clean apartment. The owner, Diane, was very accommodating and so responsive. Loved the location with a short walk to the campus. Would stay again!!
