Very nice, relaxing stay

The property was very well maintained. Inside was staged nicely. I felt like I was in a "home", not a rental. Very generous of owner to leave a care package waiting for us of snacks and a nice bottle of wine. Location was awesome, 2 blocks from the lake. It is on a busier street but it wasnt really a problem when we were inside. Sound machine provided to block out any noise while you're sleeping. Nice to have the freedom to move around a place rather than feel "boxed up" in a hotel room. Loved it!!

The house was extremely close to the water and the beach area was great! Easy to get around town and locate restaurants and stores. Only issue we had was there were so many spiders outside, we could not enjoy the patio/deck. We thought about having a fire but the spiders were everywhere. I personally don’t know the city of Racine but the road the house is on is noisy. Lots of cars and dogs barking through the night. If you’re a light sleeper, bring ear plugs!
