    I rented this home for my daughter's boot camp graduation ceremony which was super close to the house. I heard there was a lot of traffic going to the naval Base and I wanted some place where I could just walk to the ceremony and this was a perfect solution. It was a 45-minute walk to the gate to the the Navy boot camp center. The home definitely felt homey and cozy. It is an older home and It could use a deep cleaning, it was easy to overlook this because of the cozy vibes and easy access to my daughter's graduation. They gave plenty of towels and washcloth to use. Fully stocked for cooking. Very quiet neighborhood. It's kind of out there in the middle of The suburbs so I definitely suggest getting a rental car to get to nearby restaurants or stores. I felt very safe in this home and in this neighborhood. If you're just wanting a nice place to relax with your graduate from the Navy and be able to just unwind, this is a perfect spot!!! We had a little hiccup when we arrived with a refrigerator but seriously after texting with the issue there was a maintenance guy within 5 minutes. The problem was solved and the maintenance guy was super sweet. Very great communication, very easy stay, And if I was to ever go back to this neighborhood I'd definitely book this place again.

    Home was represented accurately in pictures. It is an older home so some issues may be expected. It just looks like it needs a dose of TLC and attention. If you're looking for something decked out with amenities for guests, this isn't it. We had the basics, but there were a few issues with items missing or not working. Prior to the stay, we had a really difficult time reaching the host. They didn't respond to messaging. Following our stay, they responded to the concerns we had and were much more responsive then.

    My family came to the area for Navy Graduation. It was perfect. The host was very attentive and our stay was amazing! We wanted a place my family could be together instead of different hotel rooms. There is a great outdoor area as well with a patio table and chairs. Very Clean and the vibe was great. About a 10 minute drive to the base and the route we took to graduation only had us in traffic for about 30 minutes total. Perfect location for those attending graduation.

    Our stay was so positive. And there are not enough stars in the heavens to reflect our experience. From the house location,1013 Argonne Drive, and the proximity to the base: to Ellie 847 347 2052, our coordinating manager, to Kevin who immediately responded to a thermostat issue, we caused; to Ned, Great Lakes Taxi 773 738 1083, who was so helpful to us. We want to thank you.

    Not what we expected for a rental home. Hardly anything in kitchen to cook a meal with, it was a struggle. Very dusty. Broken cabinets. Kitchen was aweful. Didn't use yard because weeds were really bad and furniture was dirty. Eating area was nice and beds were comfortable, bedrooms were decent, but dusty. Living room was comfortable. Also had to buy wash cloths for bathroom, they weren't provided. Air conditioning would shut off at 10 pm, we would sweat all night We made the best of it for the sake of just enjoying visiting our son, but we were so disappointed. Would not recommend at all.

    It’s a great location to Great Lakes navy grad. I was impressed that they supplied trash bags and paper products. One room looked to be an addition, it got a little cold. Heaters were provided tho. I didn’t like not having access codes til I was in Chicago and trying to reach owners. All in all, it was great.

    This was my first booking with VRBO, we were in Chicago for my niece's Navy graduation. Sam, the host, was extremely communicative. I had sent him a question in the inbox and he called me within 3 minutes. The property is spacious, only 4 minutes from base and very close to a multitude of restaurants. Very clean, kitchen was not lacking in glasses / plates / accessories. We had a wonderful stay and I highly recommend Sam's house. Thank you again, Sam!!
