Yes our kitchen and butler pantry is fully stocked for all our guests needs. The Porch is a guest highlight and favorite. We offer discounts for returning guests and hope you will consider our home again!
Super cute house in a neat part of town, and Linda was really easy to work with. Loved our stay there. We had a family of 6 there, and it was a little tight in sleeping arrangements (probably best suited for 3-4 people) but we worked it out and the location and house were worth it. We’d stay here again if back in the area.

What a great cozy home for a visit to Milwaukee! Not only was there off-street parking, a comfy living room, a working fireplace, efficient kitchen and nice beds; the bungalow is full of charming architectural details. We loved being just blocks from a terrific coffee shop and restaurants. The host was helpful and we enjoyed our stay - now to come back when it's warm enough to sit on the fantastic porch!

In town for a garden club flower show and meetings downtown, I appreciated the great communication and friendly welcome by my host. I brought my two golden retrievers, and this house was a great fit - clean and cozy!

Thank you for your stay and hope you return again to the area! We strive to communicate with our guests and appreciate your visit
This property is so cute! Check in was easy & the neighborhood had a dog park within walking distance that was great for our pup to run off some energy. A few restaurants within a few blocks as well and an easy drive to downtown. The host, Linda, had great communication and made sure we had everything we needed for our stay.

Our first trip to Milwaukee. We brought our teenagers to see a concert. This property is exactly as it appears in the listing. It was a great neighborhood, and we loved the proximity to downtown. The owner was great with their communication and we would definitely stay here again!!

Thank you Kevin for your family visit to Milwaukee and The Best Bungalow in Riverwest!
Indeed, we are so closely to downtown. Hope you return to Milwaukee again :)
Spent a weekend with friends in this lovely house. A large enough space for five people to comfortably hang out and sleep. Communication was great with the host and I really loved that there wasn’t a long list of chores to do at checkout, like a lot of other rentals. I am local to the area, but will definitely recommend this place if I hear about anyone visiting from out of town.

Riverwest is an exciting and unique Neighborhood:)
Thoughtfully updated 1920s bungalow with everything you could need during your stay. Kitchen was well stocked with every utensil and appliance you could need to prepare a nice meal and walking distance to local coffee/breakfast/lunch at Colectivo. Short walk to river and Oak Leaf Trail. Everything was clean, tidy, and additional details like facial wipes, fancy hair dryer, light timers, and USB outlets made it all that more comfortable. Lots of nice touches for visiting pets too (we didn't bring ours, but maybe another time). We have family in town and look forward to staying here again.
The house was great. Perfect location and had everything you need for the comforts of home. Walking distance to dining and bars! Close to downtown and the activities. Host was great and quick to answer questions. Would definitely stay here again!
House is wonderful and very clean. The king bed is a bit too hard but nothing we couldn't tolerate. Host is communicative and helpful. Neighborhood was quiet and nice. Would definitely stay again if given the chance.

Hi! Sorry to hear about your bed satisfaction. The King Mattress is a Memory Foam and we use high-quality linens, and no prior guests have complained.
The neighborhood is definitely unique.
Thank you for your stay:)

Host is a great communicator. The house was clean and the location was perfect for our various wedding venues. Kitchen well stocked including coffee and wine glasses. The shower had good water pressure. Bright spaces with natural light in all rooms. Love the front porch for hanging out on the beautiful summer morning. Quiet neighborhood.
