Holiday rentals with beach access in Illinois

We stayed at Ariel and Gabby's place several times and we always had a great experience! Their place is very welcoming and comfortable. The neighborhood is beautiful and peaceful, and the hosts are very nice and helpful. We hope to be back soon.

Great place and location! Thank you for letting us stay in your home!

Such a stylish and cozy spot in the heart of Andersonville! The beds were incredibly comfortable and the space had so much charm. Just steps away from great shops, restaurants, and everything else you would need near Clark street. Would definitely stay again!

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

We had a truly wonderful stay at Mike and Lora’s place. The apartment is spacious, spotless, and very well-equipped. The beds are extremely comfortable, the linens were luxurious, the kitchen was a real treat to use, and the Wi-Fi worked perfectly throughout our stay. The location is amazing - right in the heart of the neighborhood, just steps away from great cafes and restaurants. It’s a super walkable area, which made it easy and enjoyable to explore everything on foot. Mike and Lora were responsive, thoughtful, and kind throughout our stay. Communication was smooth and easy, and we felt very well taken care of. Highly recommended - we’d love to come back someday!

Our stay at Joseph’s place was exactly what we needed. We were there for 6 nights visiting our daughter who lives in Rogers Park. The apartment was comfortable and well stocked (dishes, towels, etc). The check-in was super easy and communication with hosts efficient and clear. We will certainly return on our next visit to Chicago.

A spacious and comfortable unit in a residential neighborhood close to popular businesses and entertainment in the Andersonville neighborhood of Chicago. Super convenient to get everywhere I was heading to. Hosts have thought of everything you might need, including ear plugs for sleep, and bicycles with locks and helmets available to borrow. Hosts were helpful and responsive and the welcome binder had great information without having too much. I had a perfect stay and would stay again.

Serg is an amazing host and his team for maintenance was extremely responsive. The area was close to Chicago and clearly undergoing gentrification but across the street from a firehouse which surprisingly was not loud at night or during the day. Great rooftop views and the apartment itself was spotless and magnificent. While not many high end restaurants due to being 5 minutes outside of the city. Great stay and great value.

Our family loved the country air and great fishing! We had some rain during our visit and got to enjoy the large covered deck until it passed. We hope to return again soon!

Alex was a Great host! His lake house was clean and cozy.. The view was beautiful! My children and I really enjoyed ourselves.. Thanks Alex!!

The home was absolutely as described. Lovely, cozy decor. Everything felt clean. The important things were updated (bathroom, carpets, etc), but all the charming character was left in tact. I would definitely recommend this place to others. Be aware the town is VERY small. Two small restaurants with limited hours. (The one we went to - Hometown Cafe - was great though.) While the house is near the lake, it wasn't a fishable area for us without a boat. Thankfully Eldon Hazlet park was only 15 mins away, so we got our fishing/ nature fix over there. The home was great to come back and relax in. We spent most of Sunday inside due to rain and it was still a very pleasant weekend!

Spent 5 nights at Bikash's AirBNB... May 26 - 31, 2025. Wife, dog and I were in the area for two Middle School Graduation ceremonies for two grandchildren. Overall, very positive experience. Very clean with well-equiped kitchen. Rain Shower in 2nd Bathroom a bonus. Would definitely come back. Bikash very helpful.

We had a great time celebrating our daughters graduation from college! It was nice to have a space large enough for our entire family together, to relax and enjoy the outdoor outdoors! George was a very responsive host and we thoroughly enjoyed the fire pit a couple of nights just sitting around and enjoying our time together!

This was a wonderful place. Our daughter graduated navy boot camp and she was able to sit in the backyard and relax by the lake. It was welcoming, inviting and peaceful and quiet. We will definitely be coming again. This was our first Airbnb and it exceeded our expectations.

Lovely place, I would absolutely consider staying there again. My friends and I all enjoyed our stay.

The Captain’s Quarters is a fun place to stay. We went for the outdoor activity but had lots of rain. No worries! The location is great and there was plenty to do inside - games, fireplace, television, and cards. The amenities are fabulous. Multiple grills (Weber, Blackstone), excellent galley kitchen, and appliances. Alex even prepared fishing gear for our stay. The home is full of light and quiet. The spiral staircase is a fun way to navigate floors.

It was a very cozy apartment with a nice set up. Easy access to university of Chicago and the lakefront trail. We really enjoyed our stay!

Beautiful, clean unit and Will was extremely responsive and helpful. Super clean, and the beds and furniture were soooooo comfortable! It looks exactly as it does in the photos and there are so many items included, in case you forgot something! A foot massager?! Amazing 🤣The location is perfect with lots to do close by and no shortage of options for places to eat. I feel extremely fortunate that I came across this one and will definitely book again in the future. Just perfect.

The condo is in a quiet and attractive neighborhood and the hosts answered my few questions promptly. The place was very clean and although the bedrooms were small, it was nice that each of us (nana and two teens) could have their own space.

Kyriako is a great host, and responded quickly to my messages. She gave very detailed instructions via video about how to check in and find the parking spot. This is a very nice rental in a lovely neighborhood only a few blocks from the beach! The building is quiet and secure. There are delicious restaurants within walking distance and the free parking spot in back was a real plus! I would definitely use this rental again in the future 😊

Chip and Lito's place is a dream! Spacious, clean, quiet, and convenient to restaurants, the "L", and the beach. Apartment is very well appointed, yet not cluttered. The shower is awesome! It was very nice to have a full kitchen, with coffee makers and dishwasher. I definitely plan to stay here the next time I visit Chicago!

This is a WONDERFUL one bedroom apartment that is both private and spacious! The owner/host has the space fabulously decorated with an eclectic mix of original contemporary artwork and antiques. Nothing is generic about the space and it has been outfitted for guests with loving care. The host, Kaye, clearly puts much trust in her guests with her charming decor and furnishings. The amount of space, the privacy and the home-y feel make it a place we'd love to return to.

WWWWOOOWWW!! This host team was EXCEPTIONAL! I’ve stayed in plenty of AirBnBs, and I’ve NEVER encountered a host that was so EXTREMELY accommodating, responsive, and kind! Other hosts should take a page out of their book! The only thing I would change, and it’s not a bad thing (just a matter of preference); I would have some type of blinds or drapes over the living room windows. This will allow for privacy when you’re sitting in the living/dining room areas at night with the lights on inside. Hands down, we would without a doubt book with this team again! Thank you Wendy, Matt, and your co-hosts for helping to make our time in Chicago wonderful!

We were absolutely blown away by how nice Danny’s place in Lincoln Park was. It was perfect for our first family trip to Chicago. The house was big, well decorated, comfy and private. The surroundings are peaceful and quiet and just a quick ride into the city. We used all transportation to and from with ease. Because we spent most our time walking the city, coming home to this Airbnb was so nice! I’d definitely stay again. Thanks for your hospitality Danny!
