We spent spring break (first week in April) with our three kids in the house on Newport Avenue and it was perfect! Plenty of room for us all to stretch out on two levels, plus a great back yard and garage to park our van. It is in a great neighborhood. It's within easy walking distance to the red and... More

My three boys and I spent a fantastic spring break in Chicago. The boys ranged in age from almost 7 to 14. All of us enjoyed the neighborhood restaurants and sites. Staying so close to Wrigley was awesome - even for non-Cub fans. Each night after the boys had decided where each was sleeping (she has the most comfortable beds... More

We are a family that is scattered all over the world and tend visit big cities often together. We hosted a wonderful baby shower in the guesthouse and it was PERFECT for our event. It housed most of our out-of-towners. There was space for the party and then some. It was in excellent condition. AND it was stocked with all... More

My husband and I have always stayed in downtown Chicago to be near tourist attractions but we really wanted to get to know the "real" Chicago, where locals live and play. We spent a long weekend at Shoreline Suite with my parents and it was perfect: very easy to get to the Art Institute, close to great theaters (we saw... More

We stayed at the smallest apartment on Henderson - two bedrooms and a bathroom. It was plenty roomy for us - three adults and a small child. I have stayed at a few residence hotel type places in Chicago and this was by far the best! To start - free parking on or off the street will save you a... More

Teri, I wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed staying at your vacation rental home. I've stayed in a lot of vacation rental homes, but this was by far the nicest one I've ever stayed in. Everything about its location was perfect -- proximity to el stops and groceries, nice walk to the lake shore, great little family... More

This place has a living room, dining room, den, nice kitchen, breakfast area, 2 balconies, 3 bedrooms, 2... More

We loved our stay at Chicago Guest House, the Lakeview Suite. It was a great location(3 blocks west of Wrigley, great restaurants, bars all within a short walk through a beautiful neighborhood), and fabulous apartment. Every detail was thought of by you- the guide book you’ve put together is amazing, the kitchen fully equipped and baths perfect, lots of guest... More

Well what a fantastic property we stayed at, the Southport Suite was perfect for our needs and the location was absolutley phenomenal. Everything you... More

Upon our arrival in Chicago our group of 3 couples enjoyed a relaxing first evening in the lovely backyard/patio of our "home" on Newport. What a great way to acclimate to the faster pace of the next 3 days! We were able to park our van in the garage, and walk to Wrigley Field & all the shopping & restaurants... More

Official Description (provided by the hotel):
A fabulous alternative to a hotel. Each apartment is distinctive, warm & inviting--beautifully furnished, fully equipped and guaranteed to exceed your expectations. I promise! We're in Lakeview/ Wrigleyville - approx 4 miles north of the heart of the city. This is one of Chicago’s many amazing, lively and very family friendly neighborhoods; I have no doubt you’ll love it here as much as I do. The neighborhood’s claim to fame is the Southport Avenue Corridor and of course Wrigley Field. ... more   less
