It was newly remodeled and clean, plenty of room for 5 people. I appreciate that the kitchen was actually fully equipped to cook in-- more than just a quick breakfast like some rentals. There are also plenty of extra blankets and extra towels.

Phenomenal place in downtown Racine. Close to great restaurants (Asiana and Ole Madrid). Thoughtful extras at The Beehive such as very well stocked kitchen, full length mirrors, black out curtain, well stocked laundry room, cute decor- this list is long! We will for sure stay next time in Racine. Thanks Angela!

We absolutely loved this property, great host. Timely responses to any messages. Perfect for a getaway in a small Wisconsin town near the lake. Walked out to the pier each day.Decorating and theming of the place is top notch loved all of “the hive” themed things.Very clean place, comfortable beds, great shower/bathrooms. If I’m ever back in Racine this will be the first place I try to book.

Came back to see Racine where my family is originally from. We wanted a place as close to the downtown area near restaurants and St. Lukes Church. This was the perfect location. Very cool vibe and very comfortable accommodations. Loved sitting on the upper roof top as sun set. Great location near really wonderful restaurants. It appears that this area of Racine is starting to get refurbished, but even with some vacant buildings around we never felt unsafe. Would stay here again if given the opportunity…hard to say goodbye to Racine. Thanks to the Hive!!!
