OH MY GOD...this place is unbelievable.  My husband and I stayed in the Garden Room.  Perfect on the 2nd floor of an old Victorian house set in Oak Park. With the exception of the Metra train very close and within ear shot....it was perfect.  The heart shaped tub in the room and yummy brownies that were waiting for us when we arrived.  Our breakfast we pretty much made to order and coffee was brewing.  She had any newspaper, body wash, tampon, whatever you need she has it. Wine glasses, wine, free use of kitchen and house.  

We saved $40 by buying gift certificates at Costco!!  

Beth is a gracious host and we can't wait to go again!

We loved everything about the Harvey House - except the owner.  The house is beautiful, everything is very clean, it is close to the train, the food was great.

During our stay, we were surprised by the stories the owner told us.  She told us how well she was doing, how many bookings she had to turn away, which she was pleased with because she was trying to buy the house next door and proving her success with Harvey House should help.  She told us how hard it was to get a loan, all the while bragging about her credentials repeatedly.  We found it odd, but didn't think much of it, as other than her stories, we enjoyed our stay.

We posted a 4 out of 5 star review, after which she emailed us to ask if the review was from us because she was concerned that, given the bad economy, her business would be negatively affected.  This was only a couple weeks after she bragged about how much business she was turning away.  4/5 stars is a very good review.  While originally we probably would have returned to Harvey House, given her reaction to our positive review, we certainly will not return.
