Perfect trip

This home is cozy and a perfect stay. It is a bit small but for a couple or a family of 4 it’s Perfect. The area is very central to Milwaukee and racine and the neighborhood is quiet and we felt very safe. The beds are comfortable and the house has been updated so it was great. Chris and rebecca are very quick to respond gave some really great advice on restaurants to check out and the farmers market. If your on the fence just book you wont be disappointed we weren’t.

Cute house - felt homey

I went to WI to visit my older son, so 2 bedrooms was a must. Absolutely has everything you need! Nice towels and bedding. Full kitchen. Great to have a washer/dryer. It was nice to sit in the living room, watch tv and chit chat. Quiet location in a nice neighborhood with easy access to major freeways. Just a few minutes to walk to a Starbucks, grocery store, and a Home Depot. It was exactly what I wanted. The host even checked on me to make sure all was good!
