Great location to good restaurants. Short distance to South Shore beach and beer garden. Fun family activity. Fenced in back yard and sitting area was nice. My five yr. old was able to play safely outside.We were short on towels for showers. Couldn’t locate them. Floor rugs were stained and smelledof past pets.

Overnight trip for a Brewers Game

My husband and I traveled to Milwaukee for a Brewers game. The house is about 10 min drive from the stadium. We traveled with two dogs and my 6 year old daughter. It’s was a great location, quiet neighborhood, and the house was perfectly sized. Check in and out was a breeze.

Had a great birthday getaway with my girlfriends! Messaged the host to confirm there was an air mattress and because he wasn’t sure of the condition it was in, he ordered a new one from Amazon and it was there when we arrived the next day!! Only complaint would be how much you can hear the upstairs rental unit but other than that, the space has everything you need and lots of fun bars and restaurants walking distance away.

Property was clean and bright. Trying to check in was frustrating. Ghosted by the host for over an hour. No toilet paper. Also, noisy furnace kept waking me up.

Fabulous spot and wonderful apartment

This place is fantastic! The beds and pillows are really comfy and they provide lots of thick towels. The apartment is really well decked out and decorated and in such a great position in Bayview with walking access to shops. I highly recommend this apartment.

Nice place, but double booked

When we arrived to the home another person was already settled in and scared we were breaking in. Almost got sprayed with mace! Found out the place was booked on 2 different sites.. She was too scared to stay there after that, left for a hotel with friends, and let us stay with our family. We had no number to contact the owner, but he did respond to our message and refunded us 30% off the the nightly rate. The place was nice and functional for all of us. The dining chairs could be fixed, as they are all tippy. Other than that & check in, we enjoyed the stay.

Baseball Weekend

Came into Milwaukee for a baseball trip to see the Brewers. Location was great - easy access to plenty of bars and restaurants. Apartment was clean, spacious, and well equipped. If we had better weather, we would have made use of the backyard, fire pit, and bbq.
