About this property
Sunny Coach House in Historic Oak Park
This bright, cozy coach house is your ideal base in Oak Park. It was originally the coachman's quarters behind a 1909 Prairie-style house, now converted into modern guest lodging.
The coach house is above the garage at the end of a long driveway (free parking included!) on a quiet street, in the heart of the Frank Lloyd Wright district. It's a short walk from the FLW home and studio, Ernest Hemingway's birthplace, vibrant downtown Oak Park, and trains to downtown Chicago.

The coach house was absolutely perfect for visiting family in the area. The location is quiet and restful and the owner was very responsive. The entire stay was perfect.
The place was really cozy. 2 adult sisters - One of us slept in the bedroom and the other on the couch which was perfect. The coach house is very convenient to restaurants and shopping areas in Oak Park. Very walkable. Its on a beautiful street. Check in instructions were clear and the host was very responsive and friendly. Getting there from O'hare was quick and easy. We would book again.
Great location that is only a few minutes walking to multiple Frank Lloyd Wright houses and his studio. The area is extremely beautiful and quiet, multiple great food choices and the green line elevated train are only a few minutes away walking. Great location, great stay.
The place was really nice and accessible. Also offered parking on site which was very convenient. It has everything you need for a quick stay and I’d book again.
My husband and I are in our 70s and we found that our safety and comfort level was more than satisfactory while staying at this lovely Coachhouse. A real plus was the beautiful neighborhood. Also, our host was responsive within minutes to the couple of questions we had when we first arrived. Our stay was overall a wonderful experience!
Nice apartment in a great neighborhood. The apartment was clean and located close to several restaurants in Oak Park.

Beautiful studio in the heart of the historic district with a very homey feel. I work in Chicago and this gave me an ability to cook meals and feel more “normal” than in a hotel. Beautiful street, nice neighborhood, comfy bed, great hosts. I would stay there again.

We had a lovely stay at the coachhouse. Everything was as described and the neighbourhood was just beautiful. Off street parking was such a bonus in Oak Park. Very happy to recommend this home!
I was in Oak Park to help with my niece's new baby and this place was absolutely perfect. Off street parking, and quiet after long days of baby wrangling. Thanks so much!

This was a great location for our weekend visiting family in this area but also for taking the train downtown. It was a comfortable space and roomier than being in a hotel. Location is very quiet, unless owner opens the garage door which is immediately under the sleeping area. I recommend this spot if you need to be in the Oak Park area!
Check-in was a breeze. Location is wonderful, very close and walkable to restaurants and small shopping strip.
The host is very receptive and attentive to our essentials.
Bright, open property complete with kitchen, large living room and walled sleeping room. We enjoyed the location and beautiful neighborhood of this 2nd floor Coach house. Excellent bed, and quiet for sleeping. Mini split worked well to control temperature of the rooms. Ceiling fan was helpful as well.If we need to come back we will probably rent again.Host was quick to respond to any questions and provided detailed instructions.
Overall we had an enjoyable stay. The garage door opener/closer (just below) is a bit noisy. The mattress was comfortable which provided a good night's rest. Very desirable neighborhood.

A VRBO property that was private, well stocked, free parking and affordable. The hosts were easy to contact though my stay was problem free. The Oak Park neighborhood is beautiful, historic and a paradise only 9 miles from the Loop and a short train ride into a great American city. And for a fan of architecture and Frank Lloyd Wright this property is a wonderful home base.
The Coach house is quite beautiful inside, and quite comfortable. It is in a very safe neighborhood, and close to mass transit, downtown Oak Park, restaurants and the Frank Lloyd Wright home & Studio. It was all we needed! Any issues we had were tended to quickly.
We would definitely stay here again!!!
My husband and I stayed in the Oak Park coach house for the weekend of the Wright Ride (a bike ride around Oak Park and farther w/stops at Frank Lloyd Wright houses). It was a quiet and relaxing accommodation, and the perfect location for the start of the ride. I would recommend the coach house wholeheartedly!
