My husband and I could not have asked for a more well appointed setting to compliment our visit in Evanston. A perfect location with everything we could possibly need and hosts who were lovely and also very respectful of our privacy. Can't wait to come back! So grateful to have found this home away from home :)

This may have been the best VRBO property that we have ever rented, Ginger and Jim were great hosts and thought of everything to make our stay as close to stress free as possible. The house is well equipped and included many unexpected extras, including bikes, beach totes with beach passes, and more. The backyard garden is like an arboretum, but totally kid friendly. It was a PERFECT week!

We had a wonderful stay in this former town market. The hosts are ever so thoughtful in how they have prepared their lovely home for guests. Immaculate, decorated with care, filled with information and stocked with all kinds of goodies— drinks, snacks, coffee, robes, truly everything you’d need for your stay. Perfect for anyone visiting Northwestern or Evanston. A nice neighborhood within walking distance of Lake Michigan. One of the most welcoming VRBOs I have ever stayed in.

This was the perfect location for my husband & I during visit to relatives on the Chicago North Shore & as a jumping off spot to Chicago highlights with our daughter & grandson. Easy highway access to airport and city, picturesque neighborhood routes (mid century modern homes, charming landscaping) for local travel. There is a spacious, bright living area on the first floor & large, multifunction bedrooms on the second floor—plenty of room for a family to spread out during downtime for naps, showers, diverse TV fare. Our grandson periodically chilled out in the bedroom with his iPad & the smart TV, & my physician husband set up a mini Office in the master bedroom to handle some patients calls, etc—where there was great internet, plenty of outlets, a small side-table-turned-desk, great lighting and quiet. The accessible back garden is a virtual horticultural center: meticulous & artfully landscaped—a functional haven with seating & barbecue. Every vacation-typical culinary need was anticipated, & the hosts stressed their availability to help problem-solve if we lacked any appliances (we didn’t). Important amenities like a real stovetop fan vented to the outside for searing or frying, 3 coffeemaker options & a grinder, a BIG colander, good knives, etc) were in evidence everywhere. Hosts were nearby but not intrusive, helpful via clear signs & instructions left inside. Charming & homey, crisp & arty decor. ❤️ will be back!

As advertised, this property is full of thoughtful amenities, with helpful labels and even a customized “how-to” guide. What created an exceptional experience for me, though, was a single gesture from Jim and Ginger. I had shared that I was out in Evanston to visit my daughter who was having knee surgery. Much to my surprise and delight, when I went to the common area, I found a set of crutches laid out with a note saying “in case she needs these.” What a touching display of kindness. I’ll definitely be back here again!
