Four mile bike ride to Fermi Lab., restaurants, family-friendly activities, public transport to Chicago. Easy drive to Lisle (20 min.), Oakbrook and Naperville. Fresh baked muffins often. Thirty and sixty day stays welcome. It's old but well maintained eye popping experience. Loaded with antiques, parquet floors, chandeliers, and loads of quiet spaces. Our four daughters have "flown the coop" so decorating is feminine and eccentric. It is not a vanilla box. Note guests responses regarding your care. We strive to become a 5 star location. With a 5 bedroom home and three beds available we are booked often and can sleep 6 people. National historic landmark at end of street. Walk and bike on 40 miles of river view bike path, downtown watering holes, breweries, and Fermi Lab natural areas. Bus and METRA to Chicago about one hour. Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime.” Mark Twain
