Beautiful home in Waupaca!

I stayed in this home with family members for a weekend in December. The home is beautiful. There’s lots of living space. It’s close to everything Waupaca has to offer. Checking in and out was seamless. I recommend this home for any group needing a place to stay in Waupaca.

It was a beautiful home but could hear everything within the home due to the openness. Outdoor furniture was a little rundown but it still worked for us for the most part.

Girls Weekend

Had a good time in Waupaca and the house was exactly what we needed. It has a beautiful spacious kitchen and large table for playing games and crafting. The kitchen was very well stocked with dished, glassware, cookware and pantry items. It was the best stocked kitchen of any VRBO property I have ever stayed at. Both the owner and the property manager were attentive and communicated with me during my stay. They gave good dining recommendations as well. Will definitely keep this place on the top of the list for futuren trips.

Wonderful Quiet Stay

Property was wonderful with plenty of space for everyone. Process of checking in and boat orientation was quick and efficient. Back area for fire pits had plenty of room and wood to burn. Even if the fish weren’t bitting for us, was a wonderful time to go on the pontoon and coast on the lakes and take in the views. Would definitely come again!!!

Great home to have a family reunion

We hosted a very special family reunion at Paul’s home this past July. Paul was so helpful as was Willie. Very nice beautiful property to stay in with all the comforts of home and more. The home is beautifully appointed with extra seating room and a big kitchen island to entertain. Property is well kept and Very clean and spacious. Property has a huge deck for sitting outside and visiting. The beds are comfortable and bedrooms are spacious. The water access is down the road and a boat rental is available. We would love to return. Thank you so much for your hospitality.

Spacious house and good location but…

This is a spacious house with a location close to restaurants, stores and kayak rentals. The price for renting the host’s pontoon boat for a week was very reasonable. We enjoyed the outdoor patio… just a little loud since the main road is right there. The backyard is very steep so we didn’t use it. We only had one major complaint… The air conditioning wasn’t working. I had to call the property manager and then the owner to discuss the problem. Luckily it was fixed pretty quickly because the house got up to 80°. The pontoon boat (you have to walk down the street to get to it) ran well but we could not use it at night because the running lights didn’t work. We had 12 adults in our group… Three of which had to sleep in the unfinished basement. I would say this is a more comfortable place for eight people since there are three bedrooms (master suite on the first floor) and one queen size sofa bed in the loft.

Appreciated how comfortable the home was. The kitchen was well stocked with basic needs and a huge pantry for storage. The short trip down to the pier wasn't any problem and there was ample parking. The owner seemed very friendly as well. Nice neighborhood too!

Great place!

Our family had a wonderful time with our week-long stay. Accommodations were perfect. Fun time on pontoon boat all week, too. We fixed the pontoon door, bought a new anchor and rope and cleared out the dryer vent in the garage. Great air conditioned home with beautiful features. All beds very comfy. Beautiful kitchen, woods view, and a great den-like office space upstairs. Our adult kids all found their place in the large home; nice bathrooms as well. Handy, nice washer and dryer available. We did see a mouse in the basement by the sofa but not a big deal, since it was in the basement, just an FYI. Thanks for the great time!
