Stay with the parents

The house was perfect! We truly enjoyed our stay. It is such a nice way to spend time with family instead of them getting a hotel and having to eat out every meal it was like having them into your own home. Our home is a fifth wheel so no room for guests. Plenty of room for everyone to relax!

Wonderful place for a stay with the family.

We wanted a place to escape from our small apartment in the city, and found this place online. The best part about it is the very accessible owner, who is easy-going and communicates quickly to respond to any questions, etc. The property itself is clean and the beds are super comfy. Very close to the zoo and the lake for family trips. Would recommend for a low-key place to unwind with friends and family.

Beautiful home!!

Our family really enjoyed our stay over Memorial Day weekend. Chris is a very gracious host, and responded to any communications immediately (not that we had any issues...just responding when I let him know we’re on our way, had arrived, etc). Home is beautifully decorated, and in a very nice neighborhood. We look forward to renting this home again in the future...thanks Chris!!

Wonderful little getaway in Racine!

We loved our stay at this home while in to visit family. Special little touches throughout, amenities galore, treats upon arrival, fantastic communication with Owner, easy in/easy out, comfortable, warm & inviting. This property is the poster child for how VRBO properties should be managed! We would 100% rent again from Chris when in the area. Thank you for the quiet getaway at the end of our evenings. Delightful!!

Great Escape from Florida!

We had a huge family reunion in town, and needed a spot for many ages. Chris was wonderful with communication and helping us prepare. He even got a hose for us so our littles could run thru the sprinkler in the awesome backyard. The house has great living spaces and “lives big.” The beds were comfortable (including the sofa beds and futons), and the linens were great. Games and workout equipment were nice touches. A bottle of wine and a local pastry were happily received. We enjoyed grilling out and made many meals in the easy-to-navigate kitchen. The neighborhood was also great for walks and my kids walked to the local Culvers for a treat. We would totally stay here again if we are back in the area.

Family Getaway

The property was exactly as it was listed. Very clean and had a lot of amenities. Chris responded quickly to all of my messages and was very helpful. My only complaint is the hidden fees. The house holds up to 14 people, but there are additional charges per person per night for any more than 4 guests. This price to stay at this place was great, but adding people can quickly make it very expensive.

Great Stay in Racine

We stayed at this property for several nights to attend a local wedding. We had more than enough room for our family of 4 and so the house would be ideal for larger groups. We especially liked the big main floor shower, being able to use the garage, and the quietness of the neighborhood. The big TV in the family room was a hit with my husband! There's also a grocery store just around the corner which was very handy. The owner Christopher checked in with us several times before, during, and after our stay and even though we didn't need anything from him in particular, his availability was appreciated. Overall, no complaints and I would recommend this property to anyone.

Nice clean property in a great neighborhood

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house was clean and comfortable. The backyard was fully fenced in, with nice grass, a table with umbrella and grill. The grandchildren enjoyed playing in the backyard and it was a pleasant place to sit and drink my morning coffee. check in and communication with the owner was easy and straightforward. The neighborhood was pleasant and quiet. Sidewalks and minimal traffic made it nice to walk around with the grandchildren on their scooters. Location was great— short drive to playgrounds, zoo and a beautiful beach. Would stay here again. Tips for those traveling with young children— bring a security gate as there are stairs leading to the finished basement. We managed to childproof kitchen cabinets by tying grocery bags on the handles
