We came to the MKE area to visit our son and his wife. The house is walking distance to morning coffee, lunch and dinner places. Very nice location and home!
Clean comfortable duplex with character and great location
We stayed here for about a week in July with small dogs and a kid. We had a very comfortable stay in a great neighborhood for walks, playgrounds, and walking to lots of nearby restaurants and stores. We hope to stay here again!
We returned to Shorewood for a visit with friends after 5 years away (40 years living there). This house helped us feel back at home. Everything was comfortable, clean and well-supplied. If we make another visit, we will look to rent it again!
We loved the location. We drove to the beach and ate at cute restaurants within walking distance (Milwaukee Brat Company and Starbucks). You are just minutes from downtown and Glendale (Sprechers Brewing). This quiet safe neighborhood was a relaxing getaway for the weekend!
Our stay was simply perfect! Quaint, clean and charming apartment with all the necessities that guests could want. The hosts were incredibly easy to communicate with and we loved having tea and coffee to enjoy! We will definitely return....
Stayed in this cute house with my family (4 of us) and we were very comfortable. We didn't realize from the listing that this was the bottom floor of a duplex. The upstairs neighbor was very quiet, so it worked out well. Very convenient to lots of things to do. Hosts were very responsive and kind. Would definitely stay here again!
This property was in a very nice residential area in a great location ! We were able to walk our dogs every morning - walk for coffee - walk to the beach area . The owners thought of everything you may need in the home . It worked out perfectly !
It is a beautiful little place, plenty of room for my sister and I to stay. Updated but keeping the old- doorknobs, windows, and hardwood floors. It is walking distance to many stores, coffee shops, the lake, and my brother’s house! I’m hoping my husband and I can stay next month.
Here are some characteristics of the Casita that we liked:
Clean, open space with plenty of natural light and modern appliances.
Quiet and peaceful neighborhood
There was a problem with hot water supply. Otherwise, we would have rated this place 5/5
This unit is amazing!!! It was immaculately clean and beautifully decorated. The attention to all details was perfection. The turn table and albums is a whimsical touch that we enjoyed immensely. These hosts have gone above and beyond to supply their guests with amenities that most VRBO owners do not, especially in the kitchen and bathroom. I will definitely book again when I visit the Milwaukee area in the future.
It was an awesome apartment located in a great area. The Shorewood area was very nice place, very close to the lake filled with beautiful older homes. We were about a ten minute drive from Marquette and a few blocks from the lakefront. The home was clean and the pictures were spot on. Thank you for hosting us!
Well maintained property. All needed updates. USB ports in every room. Host was immediately available for two minor problems and thoroughly explained check in and parking. One recommendation would be window coverings in kitchen and two small side windows in living room.
Great location. 1 mile walk to Atwater beach and several good restaurants within short walk. Recommend Benji's Deli and Buttermints for fine dining.
Great place to relax on your Milwaukee vacation.
Fridge was stocked with drinks, vinyl ready to be played,
the fire pit waiting for you to sit and chat with friends. Decor and furnishings made for a pleasant return from the day's adventures. A couple of things made me drop the rating from 5 to 4 star though. The home is a duplex so you stay below another tenant. Although they were not loud, their audible footsteps above, entering the shared doorway, and their front door repeatedly cracked open kept reminding me we were sharing the home with a permanent resident. I didn't feel the privacy that VRBO promotes. Also since there is only 1 bathroom it would have been nice for it to have a fan installed. The fire pit and grill share a propane tanks, so don't expect to operate those simultaneously. In general it was a great place in a nice location. If you go in expecting to share the house and crack open the bathroom window when necessary, you should have a pleasant hub for your Milwaukee trip.
