HOUSE RULES:
Unregistered guests are not allowed on the property. The presence of more than 18 guests is unlawful. A guest is anyone at the property, staying the night, or just visiting. Minors need to have a responsible adult present. Primary booker is required to stay on the property and provide an ID. IDs will need to be provided prior to your arrival for everyone spending any time at the property for reservations made less than 30 days in advance. This includes overnight guests or any visitors. There is a counter installed. I utilize a private security firm. If the counter shows more than the registered number of people or if I get a noise complaint from neighbors, security will be immediately dispatched. A $200 dispatch fee will be charged from your security deposit. Should they be unsuccessful in removing you from the premises, they will involve the police. This is not a place for a local house party.

ABOUT THE NEIGHBORHOOD:
The house is in east Old Town- best neighborhood in Chicago for both families or if you are looking to have fun. While the street itself is very quiet, tree lined and barely has cars passing by, as soon as you turn the corner, you are in the center of everything! Wells street restaurants and bars are steps away. Lincoln Park with the zoo, farm, pond, open spaces and farmers market is a 7-10 min. walk. North avenue beach is the same distance. It is perfect for walks, picnics, boat rides or good old fun in the sand. The beaches are free to the public and have breathtaking city views. Grocery shopping is made easy, seeing as Plum Market and Jewel are located right in the neighborhood. Nearby coffee shops include a 24 hour Starbucks and La Fournette. There are 103 restaurants within a 15 minute walk including some of Chicago's top restaurants including Kamehachi, Topo Gigio, The Fireplace Inn, and Woodies Flat. Bars and lounges are abundant on Wells and are all 1-2 minute walk. Shopping in Old Town is a unique experience; the majority of shops in this neighborhood are boutiques rather than well-known chain stores. Therefore, each and every store is cozy, intimate and filled with one-of-a-kind goods. The Lincoln Park Zoo is a world of wildlife in the shadow of skyscrapers. The Second City only two blocks away and it is a famous theater that specializes in sketch comedy and improv, and has been delighting audiences for over 50 years. Oak street and beginning of Michigan avenue is about 15-20 minute walk.

GETTING AROUND:
The house is a five minute walk from the Brown Line and the Purple Line at the Sedgwick stop and an eight minute walk from Red line at Clark. It takes be about 15 min to walk to Michigan Ave and Wells street bars are a minute away. Buses and cabs are also easily accessible. It is about a 3 minute drive to get onto Lake Shore drive at LaSalle and about 8 minutes to Kennedy expressway at North Avenue.

The house is best for bachelor, bachelorette and friend groups as well as business travelers. It is not child proof.

Property was clean, manager was very easy to communicate with, lots of spacious beds / bathrooms, parking was easy and kitchen and living space included everything we needed. Location near Wells Street, North Avenue, Lakefront and Brown Line was perfect. Everything was easily walkable. This was a great house in the middle of a nice neighborhood for a large group.

A large group of us stayed here for 4 days to enjoy chicago - we were actually there for a wedding! It was a perfect hangout spot and provided plenty of rooms. The downstairs was great for hanging out together and there were plenty of seats. You can also book the basement unit - we had some friends book it and really enjoyed having the entire building to ourselves~ The area is also great for going out and the train was very close. The only con I would say is some details of the house are a little broken? But otherwise, the place is super clean and well kept. The rules are strict, but I think it helps protect the property. It was very worth it.

This property was everything described in the listing. It's extremely spacious with tons of living area and bedrooms. It was equipped with everything we needed for our stay and located in a very convenient place. The neighborhood was lovely. It was easy to get to the train, but restaurants and other activities were with in walking distance. The host was the best at communication that I've ever experienced. I absolutely recommend this place and would stay there again for future trips to Chicago. Many thanks!
