About this property
Charming Eastside duplex
After a long day at Milwaukee's legendary music festivals, the lakefront, a visit to the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, work meetings, family reunion, or whatever brings you here, we know that one of the main things you're looking for in your rental is a good night's rest! That's why we've invested in high-quality beds and bedding, extra pillows and blankets, air conditioning, and room-darkening shades to help ensure you sleep well. A portable crib is also available.
Before you turn in, wind down in the reclining sectional sofa with an episode of your favorite Netflix show on the large HD TV. And, in the morning, brew up complimentary coffee and teas with sugar, honey, half-n-half, etc. to get your day off to a good start.
The sunlit kitchen is well-equipped with pots and pans, utensils, dishes, and appliances, including a microwave for quick meals and a dishwasher for easy clean up. These amenities, together with a grocery store and bakery within walking distance, make it easy to eat in. Or, walk a pleasant four blocks to the local coffee shop, a variety of restaurants, local bookshop, and art-house theatre. There's a pharmacy nearby, too.
The kitchen open ups to a lovely sun room -- a great place to have your morning coffee or get some work done. The sunroom can also be converted into a 3rd bedroom, with twin bed, for longer stays.
The smart thermostat in the unit allows you to control your own settings for the central air conditioning and heat pump, which are powered by rooftop solar panels.
In addition to private access the entire upper unit, guests also have private access to the small balcony off the upper living room, including an outdoor table and chairs.
A parking space can usually be made available in a garage shared with the owners who live in the first floor unit, though most guests choose to park on the street directly outside the house. There is a (seldom enforced) 1 hr limit between 8am and 4pm on weekdays only. We will reimburse guests for fines for exceeding this limit. A permit (inexpensive) is required for overnight parking. See 'Map' for detailed notes on parking and / or contact us.
On-site laundry in shared basement laundry room is also available for guests staying longer than one week. Ask for details.

About the host
Hosted by David and Janet
After living in New York City, Washington DC, and London (where David is from), the next world-famous city for us to call home was Milwaukee (where Janet is from)! As recent empty nesters, we now look forward to welcoming other travelers to Milwaukee, and offer you a comfortable home to return to after your days at Milwaukee's famous music festivals, the lakefront, work meetings, family visits, or whatever brings you here.
Why they chose this property
Just blocks from beautiful Lake Michigan, the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, and a variety of local shops including a grocery store, pharmacy, art-house theatre, bookstore, bakery, coffee shop, and variety of good restaurants, we love our quiet, walkable urban neighborhood on Milwaukee's Upper East Side. Downtown Milwaukee -- for theatre, museums, more restaurants and shops, Bucks games of concerts at Fiserve Forum, and the intermodel train and bus station -- are just a 15 minute drive or bus trip away.
What makes this property unique
We know that one of the main things you are looking for in your rental is a good night rest! That's why we've invested in high-quality beds and bedding, extra pillows and blankets, air conditioning, and room-darkening shades to ensure you sleep well. A portable crib is also available to ensure any little ones traveling with you sleep safely and comfortably, too.
Before you turn in, wind down in the reclining sectional sofa with an episode of your favorite Nextflix show on the large HD TV. And, in the morning, brew up complimentary coffee and teas with sugar, honey, half-n-half, etc. to get your day off to a good start.
The sunlit kitchen is well-equipped with pots and pans, utensils, dishes, and appliances, including a microwave for quick meals and a dishwasher for easy clean up. These amenities, together with a grocery store and bakery within walking distance, make it easy to eat in. Or, take a short and pleasant stroll to the local coffee shop, a variety of restaurants, local bookshop, and art-house theatre. There's a pharmacy nearby, too.
The kitchen open ups to a lovely sun room -- a great place to have your morning coffee or get some work done. The sunroom can also be converted into a 3rd bedroom for longer stays.
A free off-street parking space is usually available in garage shared with owners. But as the garage space is tight most guests prefer to park on the street directly in front of the house. There is a seldom enforced 1 hour parking limit between 8am and 4pm on weekdays (no limit on weekends) though we will reimburse guests for fines exceeding this limit. A permit ($1 per night plus booking fee) is required for overnight parking. Ask us for details.
On-site laundry (in shared basement laundry room) is also available for guests staying for more that one week.
We, the owners, David and Janet, live in the lower duplex. We offer you complete privacy in the upper unit, while being ready at hand to answer any questions you may have.
