Guest rating: 5.0 / 5
Overview
This designer-decorated 2-bedroom rental sits in Bridgeport, an artistic, centrally located neighborhood on Chicago's South Side. The hand-picked modern decor and abundant natural light give the unit a bright, curated feel that stands apart from a standard rental.
Rooms
The unit offers two comfortable bedrooms, each with a cozy queen bed and plenty of storage space. An open-concept kitchen and living area provides room for cooking, relaxing, and entertaining, while a dedicated desk space is set up for remote work or business needs.
Amenities & Recreation
Outside, guests have access to a private patio for morning coffee, a backyard fire pit area for evening bonfires (with fire-starting wood available on request), and a cowboy pool with lounge chairs for cooling off, open seasonally from March through October. Indoors, the unit is equipped with air conditioning, heating, a full kitchen with microwave and oven/stove, cable TV, a washer, and free Wi-Fi, and is entirely smoke-free.
Location
The property is just a short walk from a CTA bus stop and train, about a 5-minute drive to Chicago's Chinatown, and roughly 10 minutes to downtown/the Loop. It's also close to the Museum Campus, home to the Shedd Aquarium, Adler Planetarium, Field Museum, and Soldier Field.
Best for
This property suits small groups, couples, or families seeking a home-style stay with two private bedrooms and a full kitchen, and it's well suited to remote workers thanks to the dedicated desk space and free Wi-Fi. Its Bridgeport location with nearby CTA access, free parking, and a quick drive to downtown and the museum campus also makes it a strong fit for sightseers and business travelers alike.
Travel tips
Take advantage of the nearby CTA bus stop and train for a car-free trip into downtown Chicago or the Loop, about a 10-minute drive away. If visiting outside of March–October, note that the cowboy pool is closed for the season, though the fire pit and patio remain usable year-round with fire-starting wood available on request. Free parking on-site is a convenient option if you're driving in from outside the city.
