A quiet place to stay
This unit is the downstairs of a duplex with a quiet tenant upstairs on a quiet street. It was a very calming and comfortable place to stay while visiting a loved one at the local hospital.

Perfect spot in Milwaukee
This is a lovely home and just a quick walk to a Metro Market store, and several eateries. Also, easy to get downtown. The home is filled with all amenities and great hosts that are very responsive. It was a lovely stay and great place. Comfortable accommodations and everything one needs. Stayed almost a week and was just wonderful. Will definitely look forward to staying here again for future visits to the area.

Nice location and good accommodations
Lots of good things about this property. Easy to find and drive to. Nice neighborhood for walks and safety. Lisa pizza highly recommended. One drawback is noise from upstairs neighbor. But yu knw that going in and it wasn't terrible just a minor issue.

Nice home in Shorewood, WI
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!

Shorewood getaway
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.

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!

Comfortable, cute property with great hosts!
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!

Absolutely fabulous!!!
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.

Short stay
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.

Great experience
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.

Clean, open space with plenty of natural light and modern appliances.

Charming
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!
