The communication, ease of booking, the location, the accommodations - they were all wonderful. What a beautiful little home, it was perfect for what we needed and wanted!We could not get the coffee maker to work, but thankfully we brought another option, and we used the French press that was provided. It was pretty dusty, kind of like it had been closed all winter and this was the first time anyone had been in it. I’d recommend giving it a good cleaning before the next people stay. But it was ONLY dust - everything else was so nice and clean and beautiful.

The kitchen was very well equipped. I thought the Bunn coffee maker was broken, but it was operator error on my part. You have to pour a couple of pitchers of water in it to fill the reservoir, before you plug it in. Then it has to be on for 15 minutes to heat the water before you make a pot of coffee. There were no instructions. After communicating with the host, I watched a YouTube video and read the instruction manual online. Then it worked! I would have much preferred a Keurig machine. I only gave the check-in process 4 stars because the house wasn't ready at 3PM, or 3:25 PM when we tried to check in. That was annoying after an 8 hour drive to get there. There is a smart TV with streaming apps so you can log into the same streaming services you use at home, like Netflix, AppleTV, and Max. We couldn't watch a local broadcast of a Packer game because we don't have a TV provider at home. (we use an antenna and stream shows). The TV could have used some instructions regarding the 3 remotes. I had a little trouble figuring out how to enter the dates of my stay, which is the first thing you have to do to watch. We were there in late December during a snowstorm. The house is tight and was warm. There is a smart thermostat that sets back the temperature to 62 degrees at night, and warms up the house early in the AM. Some instructions regarding the thermostat would have been helpful. The bathroom is compact with limited counter space. The shower was ok.

Cody had clear instructions on how to get into the home and check out instructions. We loved how charming the house is with a guitar and turn table to play vinyls. the house had all the amenities and was so clean!

The house was a great place for a weekend trip in northern WI. It had a close proximity to the lake, and was in a great part of town. Host was communicative and friendly. We had a nice time and would definitely return!
