“Live Free” — original painting

YOUR HOSTS

A little about us, if you're curious.

We paint the town we host in.

Henson Places is run by two people who happen to also make the art on the walls — so what you’re staying in isn’t a rental, it’s a sketch of Evanston someone actually lived in first.

ALREADY BOOKED?
WHILE YOU'RE HERE

Settle in like you live here.

Home away from home, literally.

Our welcome guide covers the practical stuff and the personal stuff — where we’d go for dinner, which trail loops back to the house, and who to call if anything’s off.

CURRENT GUEST?

Everything you need, in one guide.

Wifi password, check-out time, the good coffee shop two blocks over — it’s all in there.
