The Tower | An Historic Accommodation
A jewel of Milwaukee history nestled within the Brewers Hill Historic District, "The Tower" is an 1880's Eastlake style Victorian that offers an epic array of gorgeous accommodations for large groups. The three levels of the home can function as separate units with their own amenities. The home overflows with character and grandeur. Wedding parties, reunions, and other gatherings will enjoy an unforgettable experience in this one-of-a-kind property. Professionally managed by our local team. The space Originally built by a German parlor furniture maker, we suspect this home with all of it's ornate detailing was something of a showpiece for the owner's talents and style. The home was originally located a few blocks away from where it currently sits and was moved (most likely by a large team of horses) sometime around the turn of the 20th century. The first and second floors each feature a large primary bedroom with king sized canopy bed, plus two additional bedrooms with queen beds. Each of the first two floors also offer 2 full baths, kitchen, living, and dining spaces. The third floor features yet another full kitchen and comfy open concept living room/hangout space with access to the inside of the iconic tower, plus two more bedrooms with queen beds and renovated bathroom with luxury walk in tile shower. There are front and rear staircases in the home to move between all three floors and the endless rooms and spaces to discover! Enjoy a total of 8 bedrooms, 5 full baths, 3 full kitchens, and 3 living rooms! Guest Access Guests will have access to the entire home during their stay. A unique access code will be generated for guests to access the home via smart locks on the side door and front door.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 5 bathrooms, and a balcony. There's space to spread out with 8 bedrooms and a dining area. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.

Family Trip to Milwaukee
My large family and I visited Milwaukee to visit our oldest daughter who lives there temporarily. The house suited us perfectly; it was large enough for us and eight kids. Warm and inviting, it was a perfect place to relax after a chilly December Wisconsin day.

Great stay with work group
The house was beautiful and as pictured. Everyone had plenty of space and the kitchens & bathrooms had everything we needed (bath products, hair dryers, plenty of dishes & even coffee). Bedrooms had outlets handy and labeled. Even though none of the rooms have a bathroom directly attached (because of the historic nature of the home) it was not an issue for our group of friendly coworkers - at most we had 9 people in the house (7 individuals & 1 couple) and it was still very comfortable - plenty of hot water for showers at the same time!
Having 3 kitchens & 3 living spaces was wonderful so that people could spread out to work or hang out in the evenings.
One thing to be aware of when renting the whole property is the arrangement of the staircases - access from 2nd & 3rd floor to the 1st, you have to walk through a bedroom or around the street door (3 doors into property from the street). We were able to leave those bedrooms open most of the time for general access and then walk around as needed, but may be good to know when planning sleeping arrangements.
Neighbors were lovely and checked in to make sure we didn’t get parking tickets (there was always plenty of street parking directly in front and it’s an easy & free online process to register plates) - neighbors also gave us recommendations of good restaurants & bars in the area.
The management was very responsive with any questions or issues. Such a beautiful, unique property, would love to stay there again!
