Great house in a neat little town. Less than a five minute walk to the Sun Prairie downtown area. Owners live nextdoor and are super helpful. Easy access to anything at UW. It was a quick weekend trip for us and two adult kids for a wedding at UW. House was perfect for our needs and we would definitely stay again.

I cannot rate this stay high enough. A Pleasant Retreat is amazing. The owners could not have been better hosts. I really mean could not. There was no room for adjustments upward! What an absolutely fantastic trip. There are "wows!" everywhere and "oh my's" in reserve. The gold standard of stays. Enough said.

Girls weekend with 3 of us. We each had our own room. The Frank Lloyd Wright inspired décor and the Georgia O'Keefe artwork was great. The hosts are friendly and made sure we had everything we needed at check in. Fresh flowers on the table were a nice touch. We would definitely stay there again.

Beautiful Stay accomodating all ages

What a beautiful home and stay. The owners truly care about their guests and ensure you have everything you need to feel comfortable. Travelled with my parents, my 90 year old grandmother and my 5 month old - 4 generations! The home was perfect for all, allowing my gran to have a beautiful suite on the first floor and provided a pakn'play for my babes which was huge bc travelling with a little one requires far too much extras already! It was a great central location in a peaceful neighborhood. The host even set out a beautiful flower arrangement which was the icing on the cake, I mean who doesn't love fresh flowers! Not to mention the back garden is a work of art. Thank you so much for sharing your home with us, and not making us clean the house when we left like most places, which was a HUGE plus!!

Friendship Reunion

The property was perfect for our day of visiting with our friends we had not seen in three years. The accommodations were cozy and comfortable. The amenities met our needs offering a warm atmosphere and areas to have appetizers and play games. The sleeping accommodations were comfortable and spacious. The location provided plenty of options for restaurants for dining. We will definitely think of this property for a return friendship reunion in the future.

About the host

Hosted by Randy & Connie Burmeister

Host profile image
The Burmeisters have lived on Dewey St. for the past 49 years and enjoyed raising their family in their 112 year-old four-square home. Connie is a retired elementary school teacher. Randy retired from law enforcement after 43 years of service.

Why they chose this property

Randy and Connie live next door and are the property managers for 213 Dewey St. They purchased this property in 2017 because they enjoy renovating older homes and landscaping. They are committed to their unique historic neighborhood.

What makes this property unique

213 Dewey St. is a classic Cape Cod home. The home was renovated and a first floor master bedroom, master bath, deck, guest bathroom and first floor laundry addition were completed. All mechanicals were upgraded. New kitchen appliances were installed. The wood floors were refinished. The exterior and interior colors are traditional for this 1947 home. And new Arts and Crafts furnishings were purchased to complete the classic feel of this cozy home! We encourage long term stays and family gatherings. Bookings over 30 days have no state and county sales tax added.
