About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Magic Factory Loft 2East 4 Bd/3 Ba Families Groups

This is THE place to stay for all things Chicago.
Everything you need is here:

* Fabulous well stocked chef's kitchen
* Extra large dining table
* Cable TV, superfast Wifi
* Spacious open plan lets you spread out & still visit.
* Elevator, single level home, no stairs!
* Our small property is the antedote to big hotel lobbies with lots of shared spaces.
* As live on site owners, our committment to your health and safety is PERSONAL.

Please note the frontline rate shown on some listing sites is for our minimum number of guests and may not include EXTRA guest fees or taxes or the housekeeping fee. Your final quote will include those totals. Pricing is always based on the number of guests.

Bachelor & Bachelorette groups love our space - but note that as live in owner's we're pretty particular about welcoming only the best behaved, so if your group is looking for a beautiful, comfortable space, and especially if you imagine sitting together around the dining table over a dinner or brunch together (we can even suggest local caterers) - we are THE vacation rental for you!
**If you're a group that's coming ONLY to bar hop and party all night - we might not be the space for you.... (we're a family friendly building and aren't keen on lots of drunken guests stumbling in at 3 AM ;-( **

Located at the crossroads of Lincoln Park - Old Town & River North - Old Town Chicago, Mag Mile, Fulton Market, Wicker Park & Wrigleyville are all just minutes away - without any of the urban noise and congestion.

This is a private apartment. You'll have access to all of the amenities listed. And for those who don't like stairs - you'll love that our Magic Factory Loft Two East is all on one level (and access to it is provided by elevator).

Located in Chicago's newest neighborhood - 'SONO', at the crossroads of Lincoln Park - Old Town & River North - we are just two blocks south of Chicago’s “little Michigan Avenue” and on the Halsted Street busline, the North Avenue & Division street buses as well as the North/Clybourn Red Line and the Sedgwick Brown Line. In short, there is nowhere you can't get to in pretty much a straight shot.

If you’re heading to Chicago and looking to be near downtown but want a more neighborhood experience with friendly, knowledgeable transcontinental hosts, our home on Halsted just might be the perfect fit for you.

We are always there for you!! Communication prior to arrival and trhough check-out will be via a private WhatsApp chat group that we setup for your group. For larger non-family groups, we request everyone be added to it - this avoids issues with arrival, check-in and offers you immediate responses from our team during your stay. This ensures a great stay!

The neighborhood is great: Vibrant and alive, with plenty to do, to eat, to drink & to be entertained by: Plus, everything you need is right here: We've got the second largest Whole Foods market around the corner with it's fabulous food court (5 dining options) and tables along the riverfront, a great neighborhood pub & wine bar, as well as Marino's Market and a Super Target for shopping.

When your stomach growls food options abound from great casual places like Uncle Julio's, Nando's PeriPeri, Earl's, Tecalitlan Mexican Kitchen & Margarita Bar as well as Mouse Trap / Off Color Brewery's taproom along with Goose Island Brewery if you'd like to sample a local Chicago beer. There's also a several great live theater venues up the street including Steppenwolf as well as comedy & improv stages at the Second City. The Mag Mile, Millennium Park, Chicago's amazing lakefront and Navy Pier, as well as the city's finest museums are all just minutes away - but you're still in a funky friendly neighborhood with great little local shops & cafes as opposed to being in the high rise heartland. Sports fans will love our proximity to Wrigley Field (3 stops on the train) and Soldier's Field and the United Center are minutes by car or cab.

Big Hit for Boys Bears Weekend!!!
We had an amazing stay here! We were 14 guys in our mid-50's in town for a long-weekend capped off by a Bears game. Everyone got their own bed, loved being in the space together, and found the location to be ideal, with tons of restaurants, bars, and shopping nearby. Jogging down to the lake and back - about a 3.0 mile loop was a favorite among the group. No regrets - would love to come back and do it all again. Carole was a delight to deal with.

Perfect setting for Chicago fun!
We are a group of friends in town for a wedding. Carole and Basil’s home was the perfect setting for us to gather and have some fun in the city. The home is comfortable, beautifully decorated and well appointed. Communication was proactive and clear and made for an easy weekend. Thank you for all of your help - we would love to come back soon!

Home away from Home
This is a wonderful property that was a prefect setting for a friends' get away. It is wonderfully located near downtown in the Lincoln Park area and was close to restaurants and stores. Carole, Basil and Adrian made check in and check out easy and were always just a call away. The space was so inviting we stayed in for dinner on 2 nights and cooked. It was a great trip for us in a memorable setting.

Family Reunion for Memorial
My four siblings and their families transcended on Chicago - 12 total - to attend a multi-memorial event. This was a PERFECT place - comfort, size and location - to have the entire family under one roof. Even though we came together for solemn event, the accommodations made it a memorable and joyous occasion as we were able to gather together to remember our aunts and uncle who are now no longer with us

We stayed here for lollapalooza and we’re pleased with the Vrbo. The location is fantastic and the management team was nice. My group was a bit loud the last night but the management team handled it quite well in being respectful of both my group and the others who complained. I’d recommend this place

AWESOME Walkable Location!
We loved how walkable the area was and how secure our loft felt. TONS of beds and extras with the trundles underneath. Pictures don’t do the space justice, honestly. Perfect for a low-key bachelorette party (a group of 14). Basil is kind and a quick communicator.

In Chicago for Taylor Swift
We had a group of 10 in Chicago for the Taylor Swift concert. The loft is really nice and clean. Very spacious. Plenty of beds and bathrooms. It's close to train and bus stops, but also close enough to popular spots that the cost of an Uber was reasonable, especially for a group our size. The owners were flexible with our check-in and check-out times, they even held our bags after check-out so we could continue to explore the city before our train out of town. Even before arriving, they sent an email with instructions, that also included helpful information about what restaurants and stores were close by. All in all, it was a good experience.

Urban Oasis
The Magic Factory loft was a great space for our family to gather for our long weekend together exploring Chicago. The open floor plan allowed the 10 of us to enjoy our brief time together. It had everything you could need and it had a beautiful view of the city. The owners were very helpful and helped us feel at home and very safe. The appliances were good quality, the beds were comfortable, and there were plenty of bathrooms. The space was perfect for us to stage our adventures out into the city, close to everything, but on a nice quiet street.

Spacious Apartment & Free Parking!
Our corporate sales team enjoyed using 3 of the 4 bedrooms with lockable doors and private bathrooms while in Chicago for a trade show. The cost for three people was about one third of what the hotels were charging! It was clean, comfortable and very convenient.

Underrated Place to Stay!
The photos of this property just don’t do it justice - this place is great! Excellent open floor plan and very private. The location was perfect for getting around the city, and walkable to cafes, bars, and restaurants. We stayed here for a bachelor party with 9 guys, and the space was very comfortable. Every guy had his own bed, which was clutch. The host was easy to reach and communication was good, though the pre-check-in process is somewhat tedious (something that seems to be the norm when staying in Chicago). Overall, this stay is an excellent value (the best I found in the city) for its size, condition, and location. Highly recommend!

Bachelor Party
Everything was better than expected! I was very unfamiliar with the Chicago area and was nervous about the location before arriving. However, we had everything we needed within a short 10-minute walk. There was a Target and Whole Foods right down the street as well as restaurants and bars down the adjacent streets. The property slept 9 guys very comfortably, each one of us having our own bed and easy access to 3 bathrooms. The building was very quiet and the room was very private. There was only one other room on our floor, but we didn't see or hear a single person the entire time we were there. Check-in was very easy and quick. Would definitely stay here again!

Fantastic stay in a great city
The space was perfect for our group of 8 with enough space in the main area for us all to hang out and not feel crowded. The kitchen was well stocked, the bedding/linens were comfortable, and overall easy to get to with straightforward checkin/check out instructions from the hosts. If a completely dark room bothers you, note that one of the bedrooms (with two twin beds and an extra roll away) has no windows so is fully dark - on the other hand, many people like that - so it's not a complaint, just a heads up for those who may have strong feelings about it. All other rooms have great natural lighting and blackout curtains if the dark is your preference. Was a great stay overall - communications with the hosts were pretty easy and they responded within 15-30 minutes, and were very friendly and accommodating to our group, and the location definitely seems up and coming (new climbing gym coming in around the corner later this year if you're into that, although it wasn't open yet when our group was there).
