Good location
I liked the old, established neighborhood. It was convenient for getting around Milwaukee, not far from the lakefront. Our group had three cars. That worked fine. Theoretically, the parking area in back has room for four cars. That might have challenged our senior driving skills. Owner was responsive to our questions. The house is very spacious. It's not a decorator showhouse, but it more than met our needs.

Only girls weekend
Property was in a great location. Rooms were very spacious. Description said only one bedroom had a full size bed. Actually 2 bedrooms had a full size bed. The bedrooms could really use light blocking shades or drapes. We all woke up with the sun whether we wanted to or not. The bed linens and towels were wonderful. The floors looked ok but after walking around in bare feet (after showers), the bottoms of our feet were black. Kitchen and bathrooms were clean. So overall it was a good house and I would rebook.

Great House for Family Gathering
We had a large holiday party for our extended family of 30. This was the perfect spot because we were able to accommodate both local and out of town guests. The entire first floor allowed room to eat, play games and dine comfortably. The 6 bedrooms were more than adequate and the third floor space was a great hangout for all of the kids. We loved the butler pantry and found the house well supplied with linens,towels, and cooking supplies. We loved our time here and would gladly return.

Great location and plenty of bedrooms
This house is in a good location in Milwaukee. We were able to get to shopping, restaurants, and bars with a quick 5-10 minute Uber ride. The house has a lot of bedrooms with comfortable beds. Since it’s an older house the floors are a little noisy especially at night. Overall we thought this was a great house for a large group.

Great MKE location
This very large house is lovely! The kitchen is fabulous and the whole house is incredibly spacious. They are not kidding about sleeping 16 people (no pull-outs or roll aways!). We stayed almost a week and thoroughly enjoyed being close to so many sites, both lakeside, downtown and nearby (state fair!). The hosts were very responsive and informative. This was a great find and we were lucky to book it!

Beautiful home in a great location
Before we even arrived for the baby shower, the communication was extremely thorough - including a visual diagram of the parking / shared drive. With 16 guests, that was ideal! We arrived right as the cleaning crew was leaving, and everything was immaculate. House rules were clearly displayed throughout the house so all questions were answered at a glance) Incredible location close to the river path, Downer, and plenty of parks, restaurants, anything else you'll need. Housing 16 without renting a frat house is a challenge, but this was perfect! So glad we found this home for our big but quiet weekend away.

Beautiful, spacious home
We had the best weekend in Milwaukee staying in this beautiful home! There was plenty of space to accommodate a larger group without feeling overly crowded. Adam was so accommodating and made the check in/ out process so easy! Next time I am in Milwaukee I will definitely look forward to staying in a StayMKE property.

Girls Weekend in Milwaukee
This house was perfect for our girls weekend! There were 15 of us and there was plenty of space for all of us. The house was very clean when we got there and the house was in very good condition. It was in walking distance to bars and restaurants on the east side which was ideal so we did not all have to Uber places. I would recommend to anyone going to Milwaukee with a large group.

Great place to stay
We met as a family of 12 from Michigan and Minnesota and had an amazing weekend together celebrating a 70th birthday and Christmas. It was a beautiful home with lots of fun areas to explore. The kids had a wonderful time playing hide and seek. The beds were very comfortable and the house is in great order. We will definitely stay there again!

Perfect for Large Groups
As seasoned vacation renters, we were impressed with this house. It is huge and can easily accommodate large groups. With bedrooms on 3 floors we were able to spread out. Each bedroom and bathroom was well equipped. Adam was very prompt and easy to communicate with.
