Waterfront holiday rentals in DuPage County

Amy is an excellent host! She was so proactive about reaching out ahead of time and checking in on us. The unit was extremely clean! Easiest check in I have had with Airbnb—clear/specific directions. Amy was also super accommodating with our checkout time—we had a late flight (7:45pm) and we were able to check out at 5pm instead of noon which allowed us to maximize the last day of our trip! SO close to Loyola beach and has easy access to public transit. There are just a few improvements that would make this a perfect Airbnb: 1) the mattress is uncomfortable (extremely firm), 2) there is a beautiful kitchen but it is not well stocked with the basics (strainer, cooking utensils, pots, etc)—we made do by getting a little creative! Not a problem if you plan on eating out the whole time. 3) A few end tables would be nice for setting a glass of water/coffee etc, 4) needs a few more towels for being so close to the beach! Nonetheless, I would love to stay again and highly recommend!!

"Our stay at this Airbnb was fantastic! The apartment was clean, stylish, and had everything we needed. The location was perfect, with easy access to public transportation and great restaurants. The host was super responsive and helpful, providing great recommendations for local spots. We especially appreciated the thoughtful touches, like the welcome basket and detailed guide to the neighborhood. Would definitely stay here again!"

The living room was very comfortable and provided a great space for all our group to hangout after a wedding. The extra bedding and coffee was a nice plus!

Man this place was awesome! It was so relaxing and peaceful. Everything was the way it was described. Definitely coming back!

Would highly recommend for those traveling with pets! The park across the street was an amazing perk. Street parking is also very available.

Appreciate the great communication and beautiful accommodations, perfect for our multigenerational group. Would definitely come back and everyone in my family felt the same way.

Loved my stay! There was a little bit of confusion when it came to checking in and they responded to me almost immediately—which I was so grateful for after a long day of traveling. The amenities were great (me and that Keurig got along like a house on fire) and the apartment was, as described, cozy. It was perfect for me as someone who was traveling solo. After I checked out, they saw that I’d accidentally left my glasses behind and reached out to me to make sure I could grab them. Just a stellar experience from start to finish. Will definitely try to stay here again if the opportunity arises!

Awesome hosts & amazing place, would stay again.

Beautiful setting close to everything I needed to do. Quiet and peaceful Everything promised and pictured was accurate. I would highly recommend this Airbnb. Loved being on the Fox River with the geese, ducks, squirrels and rabbits.

Beautiful peaceful wonderful experience definitely fell in love with the location

Melanie was an excellent hostess. She provided very useful information about the temporary closure of part of the Fox river trail. In addition she told us how to circumnavigate that closure. This was really great information as we had planned bike rides and with her info we had no problem at all. Enjoyed the towns along the river with numerous restaurants and museums and we even got to use outstanding outdoor public pickleball courts that were near by. This house is in a truly fantastic location and we can’t thank Melanie enough for offering up her house. With any luck it will be available for a return trip next spring.

Lucy was a great host. She offered an early check in which helped and communicated with us which I appreciated. Would stay with her again. Thank you!!

Phenomenal house. My group of 12 was able to stay in both units of the house and it was a ton of space. Everything was extremely clean with modern finishes, comfy beds. The house was fully stocked with everything one would need including beach towels, kitchen equipment, firewood. There were even amenities added after we booked including in a sauna in the backyard. The backyard is the best part with a huge dining table new and spacious grill setup, large fire pit area, hot tub, and sauna. The surrounding area was beautiful and highly recommend 3 oaks recreation area for a beach, water obstacle course, and beach volleyball. Can not recommend this place enough.

My group of friends booked Erik & Cindy’s place to attend a local house concert. Tucked in a cozy neighborhood with their background touching the river… serene and peaceful ☮️ Sleeping 😴 accommodations for our group of 5 was perfect! Master bed round for a couple, room with bunkers for 2 single females and a pull out couch for our male friend. Erik and Cindy were greatly responsive and ensured we had everything we needed for an enjoyable visit! Only wish our house concert 🎶 didn’t end so late so we could have enjoyed a pit fire 🔥 by the river! Next time! Would highly recommend booking this accommodation!!!!! 🐝🌈☮️🙏

The home was lovely. The backyard was wonderful to be able to sit by the lake or under a netted gazebo was wonderful. The house is very spacious with a huge, dynamic bathtub/shower. An overall wonderful experience best Airbnb I’ve stayed in by far.

This place is just the best. We felt right at home. The deck is beautiful! The kitchen has everything you need. We loved the kids games and kid friendly areas also. The view and neighborhood was spectacular.. makes you feel like you are definitely not in Illinois. 10/10 would recommend. Beds and pillows super comfy, everything very clean, etc. I could go on but I’ll save it. Book it!

The Airbnb was clean, exactly as described, and in a great location. Check in was easy and we were able to get settled right away. William was very proactive in communicating instructions well before our arrival. Overall, we had a lovely time visiting Chicago and would recommend staying here!

We enjoyed staying at Kaye's place and felt right at home. It was perfect for visiting our son, who also lives in Rogers Park. We've come to love this neighborhood: It's so peaceful, and within walking distance of Lake Michigan and good places to eat. Kaye's garden apartment is on a quiet street and has a very secure entry. The photos are accurate, but if anything it is actually more spacious than it looks. Kaye is a generous host: There’s plenty bottled water, plenty of towels, comfortable bed linens. We would definitely stay here again!

This was truly one of the best Airbnb experiences I’ve ever had. From the moment I arrived, everything felt warm, welcoming, and thoughtfully prepared. The space was not only beautiful and impeccably clean, but it also had so many special touches that made it feel like a true home away from home. What made this stay exceptional, though, was the host. They were incredibly kind, attentive, and genuinely cared about making my visit as perfect as possible. Every question I had was answered so promptly, and they offered wonderful local recommendations that made my trip even more memorable. It’s rare to find someone who goes above and beyond with such sincerity, but that’s exactly what this host did. I left feeling not just like a guest, but like a friend. I am so grateful for this experience and would return in a heartbeat. Highly, highly recommended to anyone considering this stay — you will be in the very best hands!

This place is near so many spots it was awesome! to go down and get food right below or just walking across the street and grabbing some food. the place was very well cleaned, had great spots just to sit and chill. beds very comfortable, rooms very spacious. water pressure can be very in and out sometimes but water was warm/hot and lasted a full shower.

The place was perfect for a solo stay. Has everything you need and easy to get around the rest of the city or suburbs. Very close to the lake and the el. Parking was also super easy. Niah and Ken were super responsive and helpful for anything I needed.

William's place was very comfortable, clean, and spacious. The location was excellent, within walking distance to restaurants and shops, but still tucked into a neighborhood where it was very quiet and peaceful. The unit itself had a lot of character, culturally decorated, and beautiful views of the city. We would definitely recommend William's place to anyone who is looking for a comfortable place to say next time they visit Chicago! We didn't bring our kids, but if you have kids I'm sure they'd love the bunkbeds in the extra bedroom :)

Without question, this was one of the nicest Airbnb properties that I have ever stayed in. It was immaculate, located in one of the best parts of town, quiet and completely enjoyable. I cannot wait to stay there again next time I am in Chicago.

excellent protective host. great place. enough towels. very peaceful community and private. 5 stars. world stay again
