Forest Park, Illinois
This newly remodeled space is an elegant retreat featuring 10 foot ceilings, local art treasures and plush linens. Our location in the Madison Street Shopping/Dining District puts you within steps of acclaimed restaurants and pubs, unique boutiques, and minutes from downtown Chicago and the United Center. Two blocks from the train to downtown, it's the perfect space for entire families, couples, adventurers and business travelers!
The apartment is a charming unit in a two unit historic home built in 1912. It combines historic details with modern conveniences such as central heat and air, a dishwasher and washing machine and dryer access. The Monroe House is a stone’s throw from historic Oak Park and just three blocks from the CTA Blue Line making downtown Chicago a 30 minute train ride away.
Beautifully decorated home with all the extras. Home was stocked with all the necessaries. Very comfortable home and very accommodating hosts. Already looking forward to our next stay.
Over the many years of staying at VRBO homes, our experience at the Monroe House was absolutely one of the best. Jordan and Jeremy have presented a home that represents the best in hospitality. It is wonderfully appointed, very clean and so comfortable. The location gives easy access to the western suburbs, as well as downtown. I highly recommend it!
We had a very enjoyable stay with Jeremy & Jordan hosting…. The home is in a very pleasant neighborhood and only a block away from historical downtown Forest Park… With the green line about a mile away and the blue line only 2 blocks away we had easy access to the city of Chicago… If you enjoy staying in a turn of the century home this is the one for you…
The second we entered The Monroe House, we knew we had made the right choice. Clean, beautifully decorated, and well-appointed with all the modern conveniences: this is the total package. I also appreciated the free off-street parking and the location, with the closest CTA stop a relatively short walk/drive away. Even though we didn't have any issues or problems, the hosts stayed in touch with us and made sure we knew they were available if needed. Oh, and the beds in both bedrooms were very comfortable, too. I hope this place is available the next time we come to the area!
Everything was as stated online. Will certainly stay here again if available.
Our family loved our stay. Communication was great! Walking distance to some food and shopping options. There were about 5 stairs to get to front door and back door. Parking was super easy with a designated spot. Would definitely stay again.
We liked it. Tried to see if we can book for 3 days next week, and can't find it. Must be booked. Will use again when a plaCE IN cHICAGO IS NEEDED.
Excellent stay at a charming property with responsive, gracious hosts. Location is everything and this spot is perfectly situated with easy access to the city and suburbs. All our needs were anticipated before arriving. Comfortable, clean and attractively decorated. Excellent.
Everything was perfect!!! I typically give feedback as in if there were mine I would want to know..... I have nothing!! Everything was wonderful, kitchen and bathroom both were stocked. We definitely would stay here again next year!!! They even thought to place a Dunkin donuts directly behind the apartment for me!!!!! Only thing that could have been better is if they would have had dinner waiting for us when we got back at night!!! LOL!!!
Our family enjoyed the stay - the bed and pullout couch were very comfortable, it was very clean, and the location was great for either heading into Chicago or visiting friends/family in the suburbs. Would definitely recommend
A good size property super cute and clean. Location convenient walking distance. Being located near the busy retail food area, there is a lot of traffic noise. Not enough to be too disturbing. Would be a great place in the spring/summer w a cute enclosed patio. Would absolutely stay again.
We really enjoyed our stay here. A very nice neighborhood, close to plenty of amenities. The house itself is quite nice. Jordan and Jeremy have done a wonderful job with it. Lots of special touches and pretty much everything you need. Sheets and towels are great. Beds were very firm, but we slept well. Couch and living space are super comfortable. Garbage trucks were loud very early two of the three mornings we were there. Not a huge deal, but do note that you can hear them in the house while they pick up! Otherwise the neighborhood was very quiet and peaceful and safe. Communication was excellent. Check in was very easy. Our hosts were always available to us, but gave us complete privacy. Overall a wonderful VRBO experience, and we would most defintley stay here again if in the area.
We really enjoyed this comfortable Forest Park home. It is spacious and clean with thoughtful and plentiful amenities and is decorated with vintage charm mixed with modern comfort. We loved being on a quiet residential street just a short walk to the restaurants and shops of downtown Forest Park. Would definitely stay here again.
Ditto to all the great previous reviews. We couldn’t have asked for a better place for our purposes. Highly recommend.
This VRBO is very conveniently located near the Forest Park/Oak Park area. You can walk to both downtowns from here. You are right in Forest Park and about a mile from Oak Park. The property is clean. The beds were comfortable. There is a good amount of space, and the kitchen and bathroom are very well-stocked, much better than your average VRBO. We really liked the outdoor table and other seating. The property owners were friendly and very helpful. I would definitely recommend this property if you want to stay in this area of Chicago.
