This was a great place to stay. The period details of the house were a lot of fun. In addition to those details, the kitchen was modernized and was easy to work in. The dining room and living room were great spaces for family holiday gatherings, and the bedrooms had plenty of space to put things.It was an interesting experience seeing tourists walking down the block, looking at the house and the others on the Burnham block — not something that’s happened to us before.The hosts were kind and communicative, and there was no problem checking in or out.We’d definitely stay here again.
The house is a restored Frank Lloyd Wright jewel of a home. I spent 4 nights there and absolutely loved every minute. Joan is prompt answering my questions and the house had everything i needed. Lovely lovely comfortable furnishings

Thank you for your great reviews! Thank you for your kind word in the reviews! thank you for you keep the house so so so clean and tidy! We appreciate your support the Frank Lloyd Wright house!
The stay was excellent. The only recommendations, is to make sure that front entry is cleared of dust and spiders and also the back porch. And there should be a note to watch for the step when entering from the front door, I had tripped not seeing the step in the dark when entering the house. Overall the my stay was excellent.

Thank you!
We loved staying in this property on our Frank Lloyd Wright weekend! It’s a two hour drive from Taliesen, but really helped the weekend feel complete to stay in this spacious house that was right on theme. We loved all of the details and the kind host.

This was a such a lovely house as a center of our reunion. We came from four states to MKE and it gave us a wonderful meeting place for the WI folk to visit. So much history. Also very convenient for all our city explorations.

We loved being able to stay a Frank Lloyd Wright-designed house for a few days. It was pretty easy to get to all the Milwaukee attractions on our list as well.

We stayed with a group of 5 friends for a 3 day sightseeing trip. We all loved being able to stay in a FL Wright house. The house was spacious and really nice to relax in after a day of sightseeing.

Once in a lifetime opportunity to stay in a historic property designed by one of the world’s greatest architects. Very roomy, several sleeping areas, 2 1/2 bathrooms and a responsive, accessible host. Loved it.

As a big fan of Frank Lloyd Wright, I was surprised when we first time saw the house. Former owners David and Jillayne Arena and their family spent 36 years and did a great job restoring the house.
