Spacious! 3 bedroom apartment in Edgewater!
Awesome apartment in the Loyola Chicago neighborhood. Easy access to the loop with the red line. Host is super responsive. The place was spotless and well stocked when we arrived.

The Lakefront Lookout (2BR)
Enjoyed staying here — loved the view and proximity to great sites and shopping. Stephanie let us drop off our bags early (so helpful). When we checked in later, she was attentive and responsive. Good communication.

Super responsive host and I loved the candles they had! The place was super clean and is exactly how it is listed on the photos

Pristine Lakeview| Boystown |Wrigley Haven |Beach.
Wonderful stay in a beautiful part of Chicago! There's lot to do in the area and it's just a quick walk away from the lake shore. Would highly recommend for anyone looking for a clean and cozy place to stay in northern Chicago!

The place was almost perfect. The Walls are very thin so you can hear everything other than that not bad at all oh and find the SERK art this is an insider for those who will pay attention at their stay.

Great location. Plenty of space. Responsive host. We hope to return in the future.

Cornerstone - Mins from Downtown & Lake Michigan
Angela’s place is amazing. As a host she is extremely responsive and went above and beyond to address anything that I asked about. I l love the primary bedroom because it’s large and the bed is really comfortable. My husband enjoyed the jetted tub.l in the upstairs bathroom. We also made great use of the workout room (my husband did). The open concept first floor suited my family needs well. Overall we enjoyed our stay and are appreciative of Angela for being a great hostess!

House 5BED/3BATH/1PARKING close to Downtown & Lake
The home is well maintained, very clean, with great amenities. I appreciated that Junni reached out to me before the trip to clarify any questions and provided detailed instructions for everything. I will be returning! Thank you Junni!

Exec Lux home wth 3 Level,6 Bdrms/3bth & 2 Kitchen
This is a Beautiful Home, with a peaceful atmosphere. A Great place to walk into and relax after a long trip, and spacious enough for a small group to enjoy one another's company without feeling overcrowded. 2 Full Refrigerators and 2 Full size stoves makes this location a rare find.

Cozy 4-Bedroom House with Patio
One of the best host we have ever stayed with!!

Woodlawn Oasis: 5-15 Mins from Food, Fun, Dining
Good location restaurants and shopping not far. House was clean, great space and provided the basics. First night wasn't working the host responded immediately and was able to troubleshoot and fix the issues!

Private Downtown Retreat with Rooftop Oasis
Perfect location and plenty of space for our party. It was the first time to Chicago for most of the guests and it was the perfect introduction to the city. Florin was accommodating and made sure everything was great for us. Clean, spacious, and priced fairly. Strongly recommend.

Edgewater Beach Home Steps to the Lake
This place was great!!! Clean and LOTS of space. We barely left the house except to grab a few meals and it was great! The deck was so nice (we got lucky on weather) and the kitchen was super well stocked!! Would highly recommend!

Executive Contemporary Duplex
We had a WONDERFUL time at Olusesan's place! It was spotless, very comfortable, and well worth the price. He was also very responsive! If you are picky about where you stay, I HIGHLY suggest this Airbnb. It is immaculate. We can't wait to stay here again!

A Stones Throw from U Chicago South Campus!
Great location within walking distance of University of Chicago and in a safe neighbourhood. Basement apartment with 2 bedrooms. Bed was comfortable & extra pillows & blankets were provided. Toilet & kitchen facilities were slightly dated but functional. Appreciated the use of washer/dryer & complimentary coffee/tea. Very hospitable host!

Studio flat in the heart of Chicago's Gold Coast
This is our second stay here. the location can't be beat and we will continue to stay here when we are in chicago. I will note that it is VERY loud. Depending on who you have above you can make it even louder. the pipes for the heat are also extremely loud. This doesn't bother us so much as we go in expecting it. This is also not the fault of the host at all and this airbnb and host are both still great!

RockStar Pad W3A BoysTown/Wrigley Field/Parking
Will's place is exactly as described. We were in town to visit colleges for our daughter. The location is close to public transportation which allowed us to visit both schools without a car. The unit itself is in a nice part of Chicago. There are several restaurants in walking distance. We absolutely loved the decor and added touches of the unit Will was also very responsive and accommodating.

The Ramblers Inn, Northside NEW Reno w/parking!
We were in town visiting our son for Easter and this place was exactly what we needed. Unbeknownst to me, my son lives in the building behind the Rambler Inn so it was so convenient. My daughter drove in from Ohio so the parking space was a bonus. The house was very spacious for the four of us and we were able to have family meals in the dining room. The hosts were great about communicating and we definitely plan on staying again in the future.

Jarvis Gardens - 1BR/BEACH/Wine patio/fire pit
I recently had the pleasure of staying at this charming Airbnb, and I can't say enough good things about it! From the moment I walked in, I was blown away by how beautifully decorated the space is. Every corner is thoughtfully designed, making it feel both cozy and stylish. The host was incredibly responsive and quick to answer any questions I had, which made my stay even more enjoyable. It’s always nice to know that help is just a message away! The location is fantastic—perfectly situated to explore the local sights and hidden gems. I loved being able to step out and find great restaurants and shops within walking distance. One of my favorite features was the record player! It added a nostalgic touch to my mornings and evenings, allowing me to unwind with some great tunes. And let’s not forget about the shower—it was absolutely breathtaking! It felt like a spa experience every time I stepped in. Overall, this Airbnb exceeded my expectations, and I can’t wait to return! Five Stars!

2BD/2BA MAG MILE MASTERPIECE (+Rooftop)
WWWWOOOWWW!! This host team was EXCEPTIONAL! I’ve stayed in plenty of AirBnBs, and I’ve NEVER encountered a host that was so EXTREMELY accommodating, responsive, and kind! Other hosts should take a page out of their book! The only thing I would change, and it’s not a bad thing (just a matter of preference); I would have some type of blinds or drapes over the living room windows. This will allow for privacy when you’re sitting in the living/dining room areas at night with the lights on inside. Hands down, we would without a doubt book with this team again! Thank you Wendy, Matt, and your co-hosts for helping to make our time in Chicago wonderful!

Pets OK | Walk Score 95 | Desk | 1,750ft² |W/D

Andersonville: 3-bed, 2-bath w/ Dining RM & EZ PKG
Just as described. Easy walk to transit, restaurants, coffee shops and more. Slept 5 of us easily and comfortably. Clean and updated space with plenty of amenities. As well, the host is great with communication. Would absolutely stay here again.
