A Warm Wisconsin Welcome to Home Port Vacation Escape, your luxury vacation home! This historic, 1865 Cream City Brick charmer is just 4 blocks from Lake Michigan & downtown Port. Home Port combines two exceptional apartments into one spacious family retreat.
We all know how frustrating it is to arrive at a rental and discover missing basics—like no coffee filters, a dull knife, or no laundry soap. That’s why I’ve gone the extra mile to make your stay at Home Port Vacation Escapes truly exceptional.
You’ll find a fully stocked kitchen with everything you need to cook and enjoy meals like home (sharp knives, quality cookware, spices, coffee, a coffee maker, and all the little extras). Contactless smart-lock entry makes arrival effortless. The washer and dryer are ready whenever you need them, with free plant-based laundry soap provided.
Every detail here is thoughtfully chosen to pamper you, reduce stress, and help you relax and enjoy Port Washington to the fullest. This century-old gem has been transformed into a jaw-dropping luxury retreat that’ll have you grinning wider than a pirate with a treasure map. Whether you’re here to work, play, splash, fish, shop, or just live your best “all-of-the-above” life, we’ve got the magic to make your heart do a happy dance!
Why You’ll Be Obsessed with This Coastal Dreamland: Buckle up for a tidal wave of awesomeness that’ll make you never want to leave: Cozy Up Like a Boss by the wood-burning stove—think crackling fires and marshmallow-roasting vibes.

Beautiful home for our traditional October family gathering. Host lives right on site so easily available for all or any questions. Home is very updated with all high end fixtures and beautiful furniture. Perfect place to stay.
We rented the whole house for my mom’s 70th and it was just perfect. Just a short walk to the down town area. The fire table outside was a huge hit as well.
Beautiful place in a great location. Restaurants and shopping was a short walk away. The place had a full kitchen. It was great to have the upstairs and downstairs space. If you are a quiet sleeper, I'd recommend the upstairs space. Downstairs you can hear the people walking around upstairs so if they aren't in the same schedule as you it could be distracting if you are a light sleeper.
We had a wonderful stay! The home is very charming with a mix of rustic and modern. I had hit some bumps with my booking and Dave was there to help through the process and was very attentive with responses during our stay. The house was in a great location plenty of stuff within walking distance. Highly recommend, thanks again Dave!
