Truly a delightful and once-in-a-lifetime stay (unless I return to Milwaukee, in which case I definitely stay again). Host was clear and helpful on all details. We are grateful to sleep in the presence of greatness. It’s south of the main tourist locations of the city but all drives are short.

This was a great place to stay. The period details of the house were a lot of fun. In addition to those details, the kitchen was modernized and was easy to work in. The dining room and living room were great spaces for family holiday gatherings, and the bedrooms had plenty of space to put things.It was an interesting experience seeing tourists walking down the block, looking at the house and the others on the Burnham block — not something that’s happened to us before.The hosts were kind and communicative, and there was no problem checking in or out.We’d definitely stay here again.

The stay was excellent. The only recommendations, is to make sure that front entry is cleared of dust and spiders and also the back porch. And there should be a note to watch for the step when entering from the front door, I had tripped not seeing the step in the dark when entering the house. Overall the my stay was excellent.
