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.

Worst ever
Dishes were left in the dishwasher. Clothes in both the washer and dryer. No shampoo,conditioner or body wash in either bathroom. Sheets unfolded and stuffed in closet. Pillows with stains. One wine glass and mismatched silverware. Way too expensive at $350+/day. I have steyed in dozens of Vrbo and B&B this was the worst ever.

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.

Great find for a small family or group
We visited Milwaukee to spend time with our son who was interning for Milwaukee Tool. Having a place that was close to his apartment as well as downtown Milwaukee and all it has to offer was important, as was accessibility for my FIL who can only handle a few stairs at a time. James' property checked those boxes. Along with it came proximity to adorable shops and delightful restaurants and bakeries in the lovely suburb of Wauwatosa. Nothing we wanted to do was ever more than 15 minutes away.
The house was comfortable and in a lovely, quiet, clean neighborhood. While the amenities in the kitchen were a bit light compared to other VRBOs we've used, we made it work. James was very responsive to our questions and needs. Beds were comfortable. Back deck was pleasant to sit on. Driveway allowed for three vehicles. The woodwork and decor gave the house so much character! Our family enjoyed its time together over Father's Day weekend.

Great neighborhood
My friends and I do an annual weekend in Milwaukee and have stayed in some bad places, and neighborhoods. Not this place. Excellent neighborhood. And the house was perfect. Clean and just the right size. Communication was excellent as well. I think we finally found our annual weekend retreat.

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!

Neighborhood was nice, quiet street. Beds a little harder than what I like. Very clean easy in and out checkout. Older home with some strange closets upstairs which weirded out my kids. Would be good for smaller family. All in all nice place

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.
This is an older home in good repair and very clean. It was great for us and our adult children. James made checking in and out really straight forward. Would stay there again.
