Magic Factory Lofts by Chicago Vacation Rentals

🏈 **Football season is back in Chicago — who's coming to Soldier Field?**

The Bears have a great lineup of home games this fall, which sounds like a pretty good excuse to call a few friends and turn game day into a Chicago weekend.

**Coming up at Soldier Field:**

🏈 Sept 20 — Vikings
🏈 Sept 28 — Eagles
🏈 Oct 4 — Jets
🏈 Oct 22 — Patriots
🏈 Nov 8 — Buccaneers
🏈 Nov 22 — Saints
🏈 Dec 6 — Jaguars
🎄 Dec 25 — Packers
🏈 Jan 3 — Lions

And yes... **Bears–Packers on CHRISTMAS DAY.** 🎄🏈 Seriously, NFL? 😂

If you're coming in with friends, skip the separate hotel rooms. At Magic Factory Lofts you can each have your own bedroom (and in some of our lofts, your own bathroom), then meet back in the kitchen and living room for pizza, drinks and a little post-game analysis.

**Football may be the excuse. A weekend in Chicago is the bonus.**

Time to talk autumn in Chicago.

I get the hesitation-I had the same questions before I started hosting. But once I saw how much travelers were actually paying in hidden fees on the big platforms, it clicked. When you book direct with me, there's no middleman taking a cut, no waiting hours for a response, and no guessing whether the host actually cares about your stay. You're paying less, talking to a real person who knows Chicago and your family's needs, and supporting a local host who'll make sure you have the best trip possible. That's the difference between a transaction and genuine hospitality.

From deep-dish pizza to Michelin-starred tasting menus, music, museums and summer festivals, the city feels big and lively without being exhausting.

Stay in one of our loft-style vacation rentals with locally owned, owner operated hosts. Book direct for transparent pricing and responsive local hosts who can help you choose the best of Chicago for your stay. Search Availability on our website at magicfactorylofts.com.

We break down the math so you can see exactly where those hidden fees go - and why booking direct with us means your money stays with the people who actually own and manage your Chicago loft. No algorithms between you and your host. No surprises at checkout. Just transparent pricing and real people ready to help you experience the city like a local.

When you book with Magic Factory Lofts, you're not just saving $400-600 on your stay.
