Excellent location for grabbing a Cubs game or just for a quiet stay outside downtown Chicago. But easy access to downtown via the EL or bus. Beautiful home and rooms - the pictures don't do it full justice. Lots of places to sit and relax indoors and out. And loved the community fridge idea. We will definitely be staying here... More

Tried to book downtown but due to Marathon everything was booked or over priced. Checked B&B's on trip advisor and found Cat's Cradle. Great choice. The house is perfect. Large rooms and completely modern baths. Kitchen is well stocked and can be used anytime. Bos service(CTA) at front door and "L" 2blocks. Bob and wife great host.It takes about 30... More

My husband and I stayed at Cat's Cradle for 3 nights in August, 2012. We highly recommend this B&B! Here are a few details: Location: It is located in Roger's Park, which is the farthest north one can go in Chicago before leaving the city proper. It is also two blocks from the Lake. The neighborhood is safe and there... More

Having never stayed in a B&B before, I wasn't sure what to expect. Upon arrival at Cat's Cradle, I was warmly greeted by the owner and given a tour of the magnificant home. The detail to restoration was extraordinary and the house had a rich history to the area. Everything was immaculate! The community kitchen was fully stocked with all... More

The house is beautifully restored and the public spaces (living and dining rooms, sun room & basement) are spacious, comfortable, and homey. They offered us use of their grill... More

We have just returned from a four night stay. During that time the trash was emptied once at our request. The beds were not made, the room and bathroom not cleaned, supplies were not restocked. We had one face cloth, one face towel and one bath towel apiece for four days. When we left the waste baskets were overflowing. We... More

We agree with the comments made by all previous reviews. Will add that it is more like you own home away from home, right next door to a Frank Lloyd Wright house as well, much in the same line. Breakfast selection is great and well stocked in a completely modernized kitchen, please of room for dinning and just plain relaxation.... More

Lovely bed and breakfast. They have thought of everything you might need. Great location.

We stayed in a nice, clean room in this beautiful house. It's all very new, bright and shiny! Two blocks away from L-train, 20 minutes ride from downtown Chicago, and very close to the lakefront. And lovely hosts as well!
