Guests are more than welcome to stay in a variety of accommodations, including Airbnbs and VRBO rentals. For convenience, we recommend booking a property in downtown or Lincoln Park if possible. This offers easy access to shopping, restaurants, attractions, and transportation.

Accommodations

The Cubs host the Giants on Friday, June 5th at 1:20 pm. Sitting in the bleachers is a bucket list experience. There are plenty of fun bars and restaurants in the area that are fun to visit during the day as well.

Wrigley Field

Enjoy this large green space along Lake Michigan with access to the Lincoln Park Zoo. Take a nice walk along the Lakefront Trail from Fullerton Ave or North Ave. Enjoy the shopping and restaurant scene along Armitage Avenue (start at Armitage &amp; Sheffield).

Lincoln Park

The architectural boat tour along the river is the best way to see the city. There are a few companies that do this, but we recommend Wendella and First Lady. Don't forget your sunscreen!
