At Wonderful craftsman home in Wauwatosa, guests highlight a very clean, comfortable house in a quiet, walkable neighborhood with easy access to Milwaukee sights, plus responsive hosting and convenient driveway parking for multiple cars.
Several note the older home's character comes with creaky floors, angled ceilings upstairs, and varying mattress comfort. Kitchens are generally basic, and one review cited housekeeping lapses such as leftover laundry, dishes, and stained pillows. Overall, expect a charming, practical base for families or groups.

If you are headed to Milwaukee, this location is so close to most everything 20-30 minutes drive. There are plenty of things also in walking distance. The house is on the older side so it had very squeaky floors and some janky DIY fixes around the place. Overall a great stay for my family. Be careful if you are tall because the stairs and rooms on the second floor have some angled ceilings. We did not use the fireplace. Kitchen had the basics needed for a brief stay. Appreciated having some salt and pepper available rather than buying all new and having to toss it out. Owner was very responsive to messages.

Location and layout of the "Wonderful craftsman home in Wauwatosa" was perfect to host our annual weekend gathering for 5. A first-floor bedroom and full bath made it easier for one of us with reduced mobility. Four beds and another full bath on the second floor was convenient and allowed us to spread out. We had 2 cars so it was nice to have a driveway, rather than an alley or street parking.

We visited Milwaukee to spend time with our son who was interning for Milwaukee Tool. Having a place that was close to his apartment as well as downtown Milwaukee and all it has to offer was important, as was accessibility for my FIL who can only handle a few stairs at a time. James' property checked those boxes. Along with it came proximity to adorable shops and delightful restaurants and bakeries in the lovely suburb of Wauwatosa. Nothing we wanted to do was ever more than 15 minutes away. The house was comfortable and in a lovely, quiet, clean neighborhood. While the amenities in the kitchen were a bit light compared to other VRBOs we've used, we made it work. James was very responsive to our questions and needs. Beds were comfortable. Back deck was pleasant to sit on. Driveway allowed for three vehicles. The woodwork and decor gave the house so much character! Our family enjoyed its time together over Father's Day weekend.

The home is in a good location, close to the highways, a 17 minute drive to the airport. It was difficult to cook due to poor lighting in kitchen. The fireplace in the living room is a tripping hazard. Beds were uncomfortable. Rooms upstairs need black out curtains as the sun comes up early. The towels were cheap and the bathmats were placed as rugs in the bedrooms. For the price we paid the stay was not ideal, but perhaps we had higher expectations.

Family lives nearby and we needed more space for Thanksgiving. This home had everything we needed and was clean, comfortable, and charming. The check-in/check-out was uncomplicated. We'd be happy to stay there again.

Dishes were left in the dishwasher. Clothes in both the washer and dryer. No shampoo,conditioner or body wash in either bathroom. Sheets unfolded and stuffed in closet. Pillows with stains. One wine glass and mismatched silverware. Way too expensive at $350+/day. I have steyed in dozens of Vrbo and B&B this was the worst ever.

Lovely home in a super quiet, walkable neighborhood. The host was responsive and check-in and checkout were easy. This is probably the cleanest VRBO I have ever stayed in. It was spotless! The neighborhood is very quiet with sidewalks and tree-lined streets, about 1.5 blocks to the main street in Wauwatosa with many shops and restaurants in easy walking distance.

We loved our stay! We were a group of work colleagues who typically work remotely and we’re together for a few days of informal work together. House was exactly as described online, and the location was great to be able to walk to food and drink options.

Fast and thorough communication! We mainly used the house as a place to roost while at night while gone to a convention all day long, and it totally met our needs for that. Cozy, comfortable, and love the big house plants!
