Charming, quiet, private retreat with all conveniences
Kate is a welcoming person who has created a very comfortable refuge for travelers. Nicely appointed furnishings, great shower, plus full kitchenette, good bed and bedding--everything you are likely to need. I love the courtyard and plantings. Parking on street and in lot on the weekends was easy--just as promised. We were happy here and hope to return before long..

Wonderful place to stay!
This is the cutest place ever. Walking into the back garden to get to the coach house was so unexpected--you go from a nice city neighborhood into a little fairy garden, then into a very sweet studio, equipped with everything we needed.

GUS Dance school visit
Outstanding studio near GUS dance studio in Andersonville. The walk to GUS is a mile through a nice neighborhood. The studio is on a property with great owners. They have a beautiful garden. The studio is very close to the redline with access to anywhere in Chicago. The lake shore is also very close. We would definitely stay here again when we go to Chicago again. Great place and great location. Lots of nice touches: water bottles, coffee maker.

Perfect Location for My Family
This VRBO experience was perfect every step of the way. I absolutely loved the property, and the price was right. Plus it’s 3/10 a mile from my son’s place , which is what brings me to Chicago. I’ll be back!

Absolutely Loved Our Stay!
My husband and I were in Chicago for a couple of days before heading to Wisconsin to visit a friend. What a wonderful stay we had! Beautiful location (very quiet and in a great neighborhood), very clean, comfortable and well appointed. We felt very much at home. We highly recommend this adorable space and will be staying here in the future!

Week long stay with every convenience of home
Visiting a large, energetic urban center like Chicago is exciting. On the flip side, I like staying at a place where I can re-charge my batteries, enjoy nice amenities, leisurely self-catered continental breakfasts and a good night's sleep. Magnolia Studios meets all my 'go-to' qualifications. The unit is accurately depicted in listing photos. And the lush, gardens surrounding the carriage house building mirror the leafy neighborhood street outside As the stay lasted a week, appreciated access to washer/dryer on site. Kitchen got daily use after grocery-shopping at WholeFoods grocery nearby. I did not bring a car this visit. Walking to food/drugstores nearby was easy. The Edgewater location was excellent for Lyft rideshare used the entire week. Conscious decision to not rely on public transportation or do much walking. Rideshare was good decision for me. Studio unit on the second floor with a series of stairs to reach the top. As one of the party recovering from hip surgery, the stairs did not create major problems. More than adequate number of outlets for re-charging electronics. Spacious closets to hold a week's worth of clothes. Shower and strong showspray were a relaxing way to decompress after touring. Next time, would like to walk to the lake shore and start of the Lakefront Trail near 'Hollywood Beach'. Would definitely return for another stay at Magnolia Studio.

Clean, comfortable
The studio was perfect for visiting our daughter at Loyola. Was clean, comfortable and thoughtfully equipped. Bed was very comfortable. Loved the rain shower head. Everything brand new. Looks out on lovely courtyard garden. Very quick walk to the red line with easy access to Loyola (just a couple of stops) and a quick train ride right into down town. Kate was very responsive and made everything easy. Will return!

Quiet Little Gem!
We just stayed 5 nights in this immaculate studio. It's in a very nice, clean neighborhood, with an easy walk to both Walgreen's and Whole Foods. Although the kitchen is small, it does boast 2 burners, oven, microwave, fridge, and enough dishes for 2 or 3 people. The bed was very comfortable! Bathroom modern and clean. The keyless entry process was wonderful! The area is a little north, about 2 miles north of Wrigleyville, but Uber and Lyft are there at the snap of a finger. Great alternative to a hotel room, and probably cheaper too!

Peaceful retreat, 25 mins from downtown on the Red line
Studio is as shown, perhaps a little smaller than photos make it appear. Clean and well equipped. It is in the rear of the owner’s property. Very peaceful although the ground floor (studio is one of two on first floor), is used as utility area by owners. We met the owner Kate briefly who was very friendly and welcoming. There is a local Wholefoods (10 mins walk) which is handy and it is 5 mins walk to the Bryn Mawr station to downtown. Good choice if you are happy to be out of the downtown area and don’t mind the commute.

Roomy, fully equipped, very clean and super comfortable.
The owner, Kate is a wonderful person. I had the joy of meeting her and her children. The accommodations were perfect for us. A kitchen, a beautiful bathroom with room to put all your essentials. The bed was very comfortable and lighting is great. I will definetly stay here again when we come to Chicago. It was the best rental we’ve stayed in. A gem.
