Great property !

This property was spotless. Beds were comfy. Wine, cheesecake kringle, chips, and bottled water were waiting for us. Close drive to the beach. One thing to be aware of is it is below another property. If someone is currently in the property above ,you will hear then walking around.

We loved our stay here!!! The property was very clean, we loved and appreciated the snacks provided!

This was a nice house in a nice area. Close to shopping centers, grocery stores, and highway entrance and exits. Communication with the owner was easy and clear. The beds are comfortable and the place was spacious!! Access to washer and dryer with washing liquid and dryer sheets was much appreciated. So much better than staying in a hotel. Check in and out was super easy. Would definitely stay at this house or another of the owner’s properties another time. We were there for a family member’s memorial and the stay was the easiest part of the trip.

I’m not sure what happened to my review from this a.m at 9ish. We enjoyed our stay. The home is very nice. I love unpainted oak in homes. The living room windows are awesome. One suggestion is a light over the kitchen sink, other than that great. Thank you

Spotless clean, safe, and convenient location plus personalized welcome board, keyless entry let us feel so welcomed. The heart felt welcoming message from the host Christopher delivered beautifully by gift of wine, bottles of water, variety of snacks and sweets. It is you who made our vacation so memorable! Thank you for having made extra effort for our first time experience in WI.

Homes by Christopher Kenzie

We stayed two nights as we visited family and attended a wedding. For adults enjoyed the two nicely appointed rooms and found the spaces to be very comfortable. The floors upstairs creak when people walk on them, but that’s just part of being in a beautiful old home. We would stay at this VRBO home again.

Cool Racine

The property was as described. We found the property easily and the check in process went very smoothly. We really loved the welcome, "Gail and Family" message on the board as we walked in. The property was in a cute neighborhood and close to the downtown area. There is a lot of great architecture in Racine and we enjoyed walking around downtown. Our visit to the SC Johnson facility was wonderful. We also rented bikes from 3rd Coast Bikes and rode along the shoreline. We really had a great time. We would stay at Chris's again.

Great home away from home

This was actually our 1st airbnb experience. I must say, Chris has set the bar HIGH. From the personalized sign and bottle of wine that greeted us to the Kringle and bottled water and snacks left for us...this place really felt like home. Chris is just a text or email away. He responded to us quickly and with a fabulous demeanor (actually a funny guy). We will try to book here again for future visits. Thanks for everything!!!!

Nicer than Home away from Home!

This was a great home for my family to unwind in at the end of some very busy days attending our annual church conference. It was our first experience with VRBO, and we enjoyed it so much that we have already booked one nearby our Conference location for this coming summer!
