From A Relatively Obscure Neighborhood That Locals Referred To At A Time As Germantown Or Little Europe, Lincoln Square Has Become A Destination Spot For Those Who Want To Shop Its Unique Specialty Stores - Merz Apothercary, Timeless Toys, Gene's Sausage Shop, Book Cellar, To Name A Few. There Are Also Many Restaurants, Taverns, The Famed Old Town School Of Folk Music, Art Fairs And Festivals, Farmer's Market And Many More Activities Catering To Diverse Tastes And All Ages That Have Attracted An Increasing Number Of Visitors.

The Property Is Three Blocks Away From The World-Renowned Old Town School Of Folk Music, Where You Can Catch Jazz, Flamenco, Samba, Salsa, Cajun,  Reggae, African And Other Genres Of Folk/World Music In An Intimate Setting. Half-Acre Brewery, Which Has Made A Name For Itself Among Craft Beer Enthusiasts Anywhere, Is A 5-minute Walk And Their Saturday Tours Are A Must For Beer Lovers. Their Daisy Cutter Is My Favorite. 
 
Right Next Door To The Property Is Grand Tour, A Newly Opened Sports Bar/restaurant Whose Specialty Is Its Offering Of Cuisines From Different Countries Every Month, Not To Mention Its International Weekend Brunch And Extensive Beer Selections. A Walk Around The Corner Is Lutz Continental Cafe And Pastry Shop, A Chicago Institution Famous For Their German Pastry And Cake Specialties.

If You'd Rather Just Hang Out And Grill In The Backyard, There Are Stores Close By Where You Can Shop For Meats, Produce And Other Grocery Needs. A popular option is to have a picnic at Welles Park, which is just a block away. Owner will  provide a portable grill for this option.

Very nice and clean place


We had a great time in Chicago. The property was exactly as it was described and Virgil was an excellent host. Highly recommend this property for anyone looking for a location walking distance from good restaurants, parks and the train station to go downtown.

Enjoyable stay


Everything was accurate as described. The location was wonderful. Quiet, safe, family oriented neighborhood. Everything I needed was within walking distance. Grocery stores, restaurants, shopping, parks were 5-15 minute walk away. My purpose was to visit my son and his family. I had a 5 minute drive to Larchmont Ave. perfect for my needs. Definitely read the suggestions provided by the owner. Great place to return to after being out all day. I was pleased with amenities, cleanliness, ease of communication with owner and definitely the ambiance. It was an older place yet well cared for. Brought back memories of my grandparents homes which I enjoyed Seriously consider this property
