Absolutely perfect stay! Very clean… very comfortable… all beds were super comfortable …the house is super cute inside! The host has everything you can possibly think of! Close to base and everything you need! (Maybe 10 mins with traffic but probably less) I will say I gave location a 4 star as the street is a little run down however we stayed for four nights and did a couple uber Eats deliveries and walked daily at all times and had zero issues! Everyone was very friendly and there is a church at the end of the street. The alley to parking is a little tricky, it’s the first left and then first right if you are coming in off Belvidere. Can’t thank Jesse enough for a hassle free stay! I would definitely stay here or at another of his properties again!

Cozy space to relax. Very easy travel to naval base. Less than one mile away from train that takes you right into Chicago. The train also stops in Great Lakes if you want to avoid long traffic lines. Also less than one mile away from Waukegan Beach.

A home away...

Very nice home with a parking spot in the rear. Neighborhood was quiet with non-existent traffic. Short drive to Six Flags Great America. More amenities than we needed, however very nice that they are there for family needs. Laundry, exercise space, free Wi-Fi, connected TV. Check-in was easy. Host responded promptly to messages and proactively inquired about our stay. We felt very safe with cameras and motion activated lights on the property. I slept in the bedroom while two teenage girls slept upstairs in the 2 bed loft with plenty of privacy. My daughter likes to sleep in a freezer so she appreciated the A/C unit up there. Central air for the rest of the house. Fully stocked kitchen for meal prep and cleanup. We plan on doing the Six Flags trip annually and will definitely rent this home again if available.
Only picture I took in the house 🙃

The owner was super easy to communicate with and the property was wonderful. Came for Navy graduation. It was about 15 min to base. It took a few minutes to find alley entrance north of home to get to parking in the back but everything was great.

Great Condo/sketchy area

Overall great unit, the location was not in a great neighborhood. Jesse was easy to communcate with. If you aren't picky about the area, I would still recommend. Alley for parking was nice and off the street, but hard to identify the right house.

Great location for easy access to everything

This place was as advertised! The house was clean and well stocked with everything you needed. The parking in the back of the house took a moment to find but was easy to access. The proximity to the Navy recruit training base was great and has several great restaurants near by.I would stay here again!

Naval Graduation

We stayed here when our daughter graduated from the Navy. House is as described and sticked/furnished with all you need or would expect. House was clean. Neighborhood seemed a little "sketchy" but we had zero issues or concerns while we were there. If you are coming for a Navy graduation location is good. Less than 10 mintues to base except on graduatiin morning. Traffic is horrendous but were still able to get from home and in our seats in less than 90 minutes. Would recommend and stay again

Fantastic Host & Property

Pros: The house was great, newly renovated and clean with laundry in the basement. It was well stocked with items you would need and check in/out was super simple. Jesse communicated often and we did not have any problems. I told him we had an infant and he provided a high chair and also had a bassinet available. Cons: The location was the biggest con, not in the best part of town and the parking is behind the house in an alley that was difficult to get to due to a moving truck company blocking the alley a few times. The main bed was also uncomfortable and sinking, I slept in a separate room from my wife which had a better bed. She didn't mind the bed as much as I did.
