Lovely, comfortable home. Perfect for visiting while there was a snowstorm outside. It seems like a perfect set up for a summer visit which we would like to try in the future!

Thank you for taking the time to review your stay. We are so glad that you found our home comfortable during the snow storm. I hope you enjoyed the gas fireplace. The yard and patio are very nice in the summer with a gas fire pit and charcoal grill. We have a great beach nearby. We would love to host you again this summer.
Historic home provided a great space for our family during our stay. The bonus was proximity to walking trails along the lakeshore and strolls through the historic home district.

Thanks for taking the time to review your stay. We are happy to hear that you enjoyed the Lakeshore trails and historic neighborhood. We enjoy looking at historic houses and Lake Michigan. You had beautiful weather for a wedding on the lake. Our daughter and son in law were married at Dekoven Center.... Gorgeous. We hope you return in the future.
We are glad that you enjoyed the house and your time in Racine. We don't allow events. This was a party of 6 friends. Thank you for leaving the house so clean!!
Our hosts were wonderful! They were very easy to work with and very responsive to any questions. The neighborhood and house were beautiful. The house was very clean and had everything we needed for our family weekend. We would stay again!

Kitchen was beautiful and had everything we needed. The only utensil missing was a pizza cutter. We loved the coffee options and big clean fridge. The kitchen was super cute. Food and groceries were only about an 11min drive that was super convenient. Neighbors were kind and it was a very quiet neighborhood.

The location worked well for us, close to downtown Racine, WI
The house was large enough for us and close to downtown Racine which both were important to us. The shower was updated and clean, kitchen nice. The outside porch needed to be cleaned of spider webs. Ps, didn't see a toaster anywhere, it would have been nice.

Thank you for your review. We are glad that you enjoyed the location. Thanks for the feedback on the toaster.
We enjoyed our stay! The house is a great size for our big family. We traveled with grandparents, teenagers and a baby. It is close to a nice beach and about 40 mins to the Milwaukee zoo. It was a very nice and relaxing few days staying at this property. We really enjoyed our stay. The hosts are great.

The house was clean, beds were comfy and the owners made sure to have everything on hand that we may need. We even needed an extra folding chair for the tournament on the beach and they had that too! I highly recommend this property!
