Lovely home in a super quiet, walkable neighborhood. The host was responsive and check-in and checkout were easy. This is probably the cleanest VRBO I have ever stayed in. It was spotless! The neighborhood is very quiet with sidewalks and tree-lined streets, about 1.5 blocks to the main street in Wauwatosa with many shops and restaurants in easy walking distance.

Great family stay

Great house for a family stay

This was a terrific property, large, clean and spacious with ample parking and easy access to wherever you need to go in Milwaukee. The host left clear instructions and was extremely communicative. Would definitely recommend this spot for a family get-together.

Stay was great!

We loved our stay! We were a group of work colleagues who typically work remotely and we’re together for a few days of informal work together. House was exactly as described online, and the location was great to be able to walk to food and drink options.

Wedding Weekend in Milwaukee

What an ideal location for our downtown Milwaukee wedding. More reasonable than getting multiple hotel rooms, and allowed us perfect space to spread out, but also congregate as a family when we weren't at the wedding. Lovely home away from home!

Cozy Sisters Weekend

Location and layout of the "Wonderful craftsman home in Wauwatosa" was perfect to host our annual weekend gathering for 5. A first-floor bedroom and full bath made it easier for one of us with reduced mobility. Four beds and another full bath on the second floor was convenient and allowed us to spread out. We had 2 cars so it was nice to have a driveway, rather than an alley or street parking.

Good location, house needs improvement

The home is in a good location, close to the highways, a 17 minute drive to the airport. It was difficult to cook due to poor lighting in kitchen. The fireplace in the living room is a tripping hazard. Beds were uncomfortable. Rooms upstairs need black out curtains as the sun comes up early. The towels were cheap and the bathmats were placed as rugs in the bedrooms. For the price we paid the stay was not ideal, but perhaps we had higher expectations.

Quiet neighborhood. Loved to sit out on the front porch. Easy driving access to attractions. Great to have a downstairs bedroom and bathroom for those with mobility issues.
