Very comfortable, beautifully furnished

With four adults, having the nice kitchen, large fridge, big bathroom, and comfy couches was very helpful for our weekend event. We needed lots of space and we had it. This unit was newly decorated and super comfortable in every way. Ben communicated with me very well. We were glad we chose this for our stay and we would come again.

Beautiful apartment

We visited whitewater to go to the CrossFit Games at Madison. The journey a pleasant drive through Fort Atkinson only 40 mins. The apartment is beautiful, tasteful decor and everything you’d need. Ben as a host was fantastic gave full and clear instructions and was very helpful throughout our stay. There was plenty of space in the apartment for clothing and luggage the kitchen was great and fully equipped. The local amenities were nearby, shops and restaurants. Though some restaurants were closed due to it being out of season. Gus’s pizzas was very good. I’d highly recommend this accommodation for a central place to discover Wisconsin, Milwaukee was only an hour away.

Wonderful Stay!

I would highly recommend this property to anyone in the Whitewater area! The apartment was immaculate, the host was super friendly and quick and easy to communicate with, and there are lots of thoughtful extra touches such as bottles of water, k-cups, games, fans in both bedrooms, etc. A lot of thought has been put into the decor and comforts of home during your stay! Location was great as well! We would absolutely look to stay here again if we’re in the area, or in other properties by this owner!

UWW Homecoming

The minute we walked in the apartment we were beyond satisfied! So cute! Spotlessly clean! Perfect for our weekend away. Ben was easy to work with. He graciously accepted our early entry so we could park there and get to the campus tour. He checked up on us periodically to be sure we were satisfied with the apartment. I highly recommend this apartment! Location to campus and food was super. And our quiet evenings there were so comfortable! Spectacular weekend away. Thanks Ben!

Amazing!

We loved everything about this place. It was my husband , my adult daughter and me for the weekend. The unit is so spacious. The beds where so comfy and the linens were top of the line. The place was spotless. Ben has thought of everything and it had so many nice touches. One of the things I find when I stay in a rental is the lack of mirrors when we are all getting ready at once—not a problem here—there are amazing light up mirrors in both bedrooms with a table and stool for getting ready! I now have to get that mirror for my own bedroom-I loved it! Ben responded immediately when I would send him a message. This is a luxurious gem to find in a college town! I would definitely stay there again!

Clean, Charming, Pet Friendly

We loved our stay! Ben was a communicative and thorough host. The unit has all the amenities needed. The unit is just like the pictures: clean and cozy with modern updates. Everything smelled fresh and clean. We brought our two dogs and it was a very accommodating and affordable option for traveling with pets (including pet waste bags in the common area). We 10/10 recommend staying with Ben and would book again.

Clean / Cozy / Convenient

This was an awesome place to stay for my family. Very clean and had everything we needed for our stay. Our host was very helpful and made great suggestions for restaurants in the area. We were within a few minutes walking distance to UW Whitewater which is where our events were for the weekend. We could easily walk back to the rental to let our dogs out and grab a snack. Three TV’s made no arguments about what to watch. I was nervous about noise being so close to the college but it was very quiet, even at night. Almost felt like we were staying at our own house. I would highly recommend this property if you are looking for a place to stay in the area.

Sparkling clean, nicely decorated, comfortable

We were here for a few nights to get our son checked into the dorms. The location was great. Super close to Walmart (less than 5 minutes to drive) and restaurants, etc. Quieter than we expected, being so close to the college. The building itself is older but once we stepped into the condo you would never know. Very up to date, nicely decorated, very comfortable beds and space. Loved our stay. 5 stars, for sure.

Above and Beyond!

My Mother and I went for a 5 day vacation to see some family. This VRBO was every bit what the ad shows and way beyond! The rooms are decorated so tastefully and the bamboo flooring is beautiful. The beds are very comfortable with quality linens. The kitchen was equipped with all that we needed for perfect "stay in and cook" mealtimes. The wet bar was great for complimentary Kureg coffee selections, and we bought cold sodas, juices, and waters and kept them handy in the separate wet bar fridge. We found great movies on the tv entertainment selection they offer and even played some provided cards in our spare time. The lighted mirrors were a nice touch and the shower was awesome with a wide head adjustable massage sprayer. They have plush towels that felt luxurious. They didn't miss a trick when it comes to comfort in this rental. We will definitely be back! J'ohnell Cook Godfrey IL
