Welcome to The Blue Bungalow! Located in the heart of downtown Appleton and close to Lawrence University, our home welcomes you with 3 bedrooms (king + queen + twin beds), modern furnishings, a fully stocked kitchen, huge bathroom, gas grill and outdoor patio area. The cozy living room has a comfortable couch, decorative fireplace, and large TV. Our neighborhood is residential, walkable and just minutes from everything in Appleton and just 30 minutes from Green Bay and Oshkosh.
MAIN FLOOR • Kitchen: Stainless appliances, dishwasher, quartz countertops, fully stocked cabinets with everything you need to cook a great meal • Living Room: Comfy sectional sofa, decorative (non-functional) fireplace, TV with streaming capabilities (BYO passwords), hardwood floors. A small toy bin is available for our youngest guests. • Dining Room: Handmade barnwood table, seating for 6 • Entry: Hooks to hang your coats and bags and plenty of room for shoes • Front Porch: Enjoy your morning coffee on the couch during the spring/summer/fall

OUTDOORS • A high-quality Weber gas grill and paved patio area make the perfect spot for outdoor grilling on a warm summer night • Off-street parking for 2 vehicles
Note that this home is from the 1930’s. This means it has great character and unique charm, but it also means there is only one bathroom (on the second floor), and stairs that creak near the top. Sound machines are provided in every bedroom for light sleepers.
WHAT WE PROVIDE • Shampoo, conditioner, and bodywash are available in refillable containers as we do our part to help the environment. Guests are welcome to supply their own toiletries if desired. • Laundry detergent. • Coffee, creamer, and sugar are available, however we highly recommend checking out one of Appleton's local coffee shops like Copper Rock Coffee Company while you are in town.
LONG TERM STAYS • Interested in staying for more than 30 days? Reach out for long-term pricing. Note that a separate lease may be required through our company, Home Base Rentals, to protect both of us. Stays of 30 days or more also have a cleaning fee of $225.

About the host
Hosted by Amy
Welcome! Our family is so excited to host you! We LOVE to travel anywhere and everywhere. When our kids have breaks from school you can find us in Door County, Wisconsin, on a lake in northern Wisconsin, visiting family in Florida, or spending time in the Great Smoky Mountains. We enjoy going for bike rides, hanging out on our front porch in the summer, eating ice cream and spending lots of time with family and friends.
