This house was perfect for our stay. We had 3 sets of couples staying together, and the space never felt cramped. Everything was very clean and welcoming. The street the house is on felt like it was out of a movie. We walked everywhere and felt very safe doing so. I hope to be back again and will certainly rebook if available.

Great house in a great location!

Leisure weekend

We had a large group of all adults stay and the house was perfect! We don't get to see each other often so this house was great because we had plenty of outdoor space and seating plus Indoor areas to hang out! Jennifer was an amazing hostess and provided us with things to do in the area and left a great binder in the house with a guide about the house. The house had so much charm and the decor was beautiful! I would definitely stay here again!

One of the best

I have never left a review before for a property but this place deserves and A++ The property owner was immensely thoughtful. The house was so well stocked with basics and the property itself is gorgeous. Only pit fall is no on site washer and dryer but there is a clean and very nice laundromat not too far down the road. Would book again. And again.

Thank You, Jen!

More than happy with our stay in Burlington! Jen clearly takes pride as a host, going above and beyond in both her communication and her provisions of several small items (coffee bar, bug spray, spare hygiene products, to name a few) that make it clear she cares about her guests. Our group of 7 enjoyed time around the firepit one night and headed to a wedding ceremony and reception (in walking distance) the next. Thank you, Jen!

Highly Recommend

The property was very clean, nicely decorated, and spacious. The kitchen was the best I've seen at any rental I've been to thus far. We were just minutes away walking to downtown Burlington and a 20 minute drive to the Lake Geneva area. Jen was super accommodating and friendly. She was very quick to respond to any questions we had prior to and during our stay. She informed us about local events going on as well as updates made to the property since booking. Overall, a great stay and I would definitely recommend Jen and her space.

First time VRBO renter - great experience

I don't often take the time to leave reviews, however, the host (Jennifer) was awesome. She was very responsive and accommodating. We were in town for my son's wedding in late March. Wouldn't you know it, the overnight and morning of the wedding they were forecasting 5-8 in of snow! Jennifer contacted her snow removal service and had them prioritize us. As for the property itself, it's an older house that has been remodeled throughout. Very quiet neighborhood and a great place to rent!

Wow we had such a wonderful weekend at Jen’s place. Jen is one of the best hosts we have worked with over the years of renting places. Incredibly responsive, accommodating and really just went the extra mile in the small things. That extended to our experience at her place too. It was very clean, with plenty of space and bathrooms for the five (adults) of us to stay. Some of the little touches were above and beyond what I see at other places. The coffee station with syrups, fixings and tea. Beautiful decor in an older home filled with character. Extra backup personal care products. A great front porch for relaxing. It fit perfect with the vibe of Burlington.We loved that it was walking distance to downtown and that there was plenty of parking.Any trip back to Burlington we will definitely stay here. We highly recommend!

About the host

Hosted by Jen

Host profile image
Hi! We are from Chicago and love coming up to Wisconsin to get away from the city. We love that while we can relax here there's also plenty of things to do. We want to share our home with people in hopes that they can enjoy it as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with Burlington the first time we came to visit. It is such a quaint family orientated town with so much to do. We are also close to so many popular destinations like Lake Geneva, Alpine Amphitheatre, Milwaukee, skiing, and boating. But don't feel the need to leave town! With so many budding businesses there's so many things to see and do from eating and drinking to shopping.

What makes this property unique

When we bought this historic home it was in dire need of renovation. We saw so much potential and charm in this beautiful old home. While is was no easy task and there was plenty of blood, sweat, and tears, it was worth it to see the finished product. We hope you enjoy our home as much as we do.
