Texas trip
We are Pewaukee residents and known about the “boat house”for years. When we found it was available thru VRBO, we jumped on it. We had family from Texas visiting for a long week end, we reserved the boathouse. I can sum up there view of the house as fantastic. Not only was it unique, it was clean and fully equipped for their stay. Will definitely sign up for another stay.
