Fitness-friendly vacation rentals in Illinois

I had a great stay. The apartment was so comfortable and welcoming. The location was perfect-- steps from public transportation and tons of restaurants. The hosts were very nice and quick to respond to my questions. Would totally recommend!

We really enjoyed our stay and appreciated how responsive and accommodating Stephanie was! The view is beautiful and the surrounding area was great. Being right above a coffee shop was also extremely convenient.

The apartment was great - the building was lovely, especially the gym which was great to be able to use. Super close to multiple bus stops and an L line, which made getting around super easy. The apartment itself was clean and looked like the pictures! Only downside was I that I was not able to check in on time, however I was able to drop bags off, which was really helpful, and they were super responsive to any question or concern I had during my stay. Would definitely stay here again!

Great 1st floor town home on the boarder between Rogers Park and Evanston, right on the waters of Lake Michigan. Lots of sunlight (and able to watch the sunrise over Lake Michigan in the morning) and a couple of parks next door. The bathrooms (especially the showers) were great--full size, nice water pressure. I was able to work remotely while I was there without any issues. As others have noted, parking is on the street; but if you're proactive or book with Spot Hero or similar, it's very manageable. I really enjoyed my stay!

Loved our stay at The Foundry! The unit was beautiful and comfortable and the views were incredible. We had everything we needed and communication from Cloud9 was clear. There are great places nearby to walk for coffee and food — including an amazing Whole Foods.

Our stay at the farm loft in Carrollton, Illinois was absolutely delightful. The space is adorable, tastefully decorated, cozy, and incredibly comfortable. It was the ideal retreat from the summer heat, staying refreshingly cool even on the warmest days. The location couldn’t be better. Nestled right in the heart of the quaint town of Carrollton, the loft is just a short stroll from a variety of charming boutiques and local gems. Whether I was enjoying a relaxing morning coffee or exploring the nearby shops, everything I needed was right at my fingertips. I can’t recommend this place enough for anyone looking for a peaceful getaway with small-town charm and thoughtful touches. I’ll definitely be back!

This was my first time booking with Airbnb and all I can say is that it could not have been a better experience! Aaron was so nice and beyond helpful. The apartment was the perfect size for my husband and I. It is in a good location, we were able to get to anything we needed or wanted with just a short walk. Not only that but the building itself was so cool, the lobby is beautiful and the amenities were spectacular. We ventured to the rooftop many times because of how nice and peaceful it was. We attended a concert at the Aragon Ballroom and it’s the first time we’ve not stressed about how to make the trip there and back. It was maybe a 3-5 minute walk at most! Overall it was beyond what I was expecting. If available, anytime we will be in the area this will be our first choice!!

We had a very pleasurable stay in the apartment. Absolutely perfect accommodations. We found everything that was promised in the listing to be accurate, clean and of high quality. The short walks to Michigan Ave and “EATALY” made it an extra bonus. The parking provided was easy to find and very efficient to negotiate. To have this “known/available” parking was an excellent feature of the stay. My second favorite feature was the “how to” videos that the host provided to ensure that all entry, access and locating the parking were stressless.

Great location to attend a Cubs game! Nice place, nice backyard to relax outside. Comfortable furniture. Fun part of Chicago for food and shopping

The best AirBnB we have stayed in while visiting family in champaign . Definitely will stay here again if it's available next time we come up.

Milan runs a professional Airbnb service and promptly responded to all our queries. We stayed at Apartment No. 605 which, was clean and had all the required amenities for a comfortable stay.

Close to the green line for easy transportation.

Will’s flat was exactly what my son and I needed on our trip to Chicago. It completely met our expectations and felt like home. My son was impressed with the comfort of the Murphy bed. The master bedroom was palatial and well-appointed. The kitchen had everything we needed, though we only used it for breakfast each day. As we were there primarily to take in a couple of baseball games we couldn’t have been happier with the location- Wrigley Field was only a few minutes away and we were close to the red line which took us to where the White Sox play. Will was very helpful with instructions and quick to respond to our questions. Absolutely would recommend this place without hesitation.

We were in a bad spot emotionally as we suddenly lost our grandmother. Patricia was quick and responsive and was able to accommodate our immediate needs. Highly recommended.

Wendy and Matt's place was comfortable and homey. The location was great, the apartment comfortable, and we had essential amenities. The building is mid-century modern and designed by famed architect Harry Weese that incorporates thoughtful references to Chicago architectural history throughout while still remaining visually cohesive. One minor issue is the stove, which is electric and somewhat underpowered. It's good enough for minor work like breakfast or heating leftovers but you may struggle producing more elaborate meals. It was a very minor quibble but worth noting for those culinarians wanting to prepare their own meals. The oven is decent but there is only one. Overall, my stay was excellent and I recommend Wendy and Matt's place wholeheartedly. They are excellent hosts as well.

Thanks for your kindness and support! The host and the place were amazing!!!

Stayed here for a sisters weekend- and it was great for 6 sisters between the ages of 60-75. Two bedrooms on main floor and 2 downstairs worked great for us. Things were a little dated- but hey- so are we. We had a couple of issues that needed attn and James was most attentive and took care of them immediately. I would recommend. Great value for 6 women with varying needs! Especially loved the hot tub in the natural surroundings!!!

The condo was immaculate and comfortable. Check in was easy and the host provided helpful information about finding the local store as well as a route suggestion to avoid exiting the neighborhood on a blind curve. Would definitely stay here again.

Our family—including me, my wife, our daughter, and our puppy—had a wonderful time. Ginger was very kind and provided detailed information, including how to use the amenities like the swimming pools. The property was clean, cozy, and conveniently located near downtown, where we had a great time exploring. We’d definitely recommend this place to any family and would love to return on our next trip to Galena.

Brian and Jonny were very responsive and communicative from beginning to end. It was a last minute trip and we were lucky to find a pet friendly place during the start of the summer season. The house was clean, cozy and close to walking trails. Although we did not take advantage of the outdoor grill or hot tub (they have a wood burning fireplace for the winter), we enjoyed the screened in porch and open concept layout of the house, as pictured in the profile. The house is situated between two other houses blocked somewhat by the trees. I would describe as semi-private where we could see their back patio/hot tub/fire pit and vice versa. But whatever your personal comfort level, you can’t beat the proximity to trails, Owners Club, and easy access to Hwy 20 to Galena! We enjoyed our stay and exploring!

Great location. So close to everything. Would definitely stay again!

In town for a high school soccer tournament. It was wonderful to be "at home" after long, extremely hot days at the fields. Kourtney is a great hostess. The description of the property is spot on and spotless! Traveled with my dog who also felt right at home - the fenced yard and quiet area was a bonus (there were even bowls and toys for my dog). Kourtney is an active communicator and has an amazing attention to detail - house was fully supplied with necessities for travelers. Kourtney even shared recommendations for local restaurants and ice cream! Definitely visit Whitey's! I highly recommend this Cozy Cape Cod and will return for our next tournament!

We had such a great time! We took the whole family (10 people) and there was plenty of room. The basement was great for keeping the kids entertained. They were wore out from playing video games, air hockey, basketball, and hot rubbing. The area has beautiful views, and feels very private even though there are houses close buy - which we prefer just in case we would need help. We all wished we could have stayed longer! We highly recommend and will definitely be back!

Always a great time in Galena. This space was perfect for a small group, and had a lovely view.
