My friends and I had a weekend getaway here and there was tons for us to do. The properties Kayaks, Firepit and Hot tub were easily the highlight for our weekend stay. Property was clean and well kept for our trip and in a great area.
House was clean and in a great location, close to downtown Waterford and right on Fox River. Our family had such a great stay there. Wish it could have been longer! Owner had instructions for everything and even gave gifted us supplies for smores! Highly recommend this place!
My daughter had her wedding in nearby Burlington. The location of this house was perfect. The house was very clean and had everything we needed. The beds were super clean and comfortable. We did not use the hot tub or kayaks since we were busy with wedding things. Overall this was a lovely house.
From the moment we walked in to this home we felt comfortable and at ease, beautiful view, quiet neighborhood.
Completely enjoyed our stay, we were there for the weekend to attend a family members wedding so unfortunately we did not get to enjoy the hot tub or canoeing that onsite , maybe next time.
A definite thumbs up👍🏻
This home is perfectly updated and entertains well. The property boasts riverfront access for kayaking and fishing on the Fox River. The hot tub was warm and clean. Kitchen had everything we needed. Basement has an entertainment area with a bar and a very large bedroom with two queen beds. We have nothing but very positive things to say. Check in was very simple. Had no need to contact the host.
Sleeping arrangements were wonderful, but what really made the property was the hot tub, giant backyard, and kayaks. We had a wonderful time and would definitely stay here again!
Our daughters wedding was in Burlington WI. We stayed with our daughter, her fiancé and their dog. The property was only 10 minutes the venue. The house was the cleanest VRBO house I've ever stayed at. Perfect for families.
So I was celebrating my 40th birthday with some family and friends and the house is gorgeous and had more than enough rooms to hang out in, the sun porch was great in the morning, while we were drinking our coffee. I had basically everything we needed and the hot tub was DEFINITELY a BONUS!!! The girls and I had to so much fun hanging out on the deck and then went into town to this antique store called Fox and Fork and got a glass of wine while we shopped; definitely have great smelling soap and candles...This beds are so comfortable to sleep in, they had darts too. I definitely will never forget this AMAZING 40th Birthday Celebration for years to come!! Thinking about booking it again in the future!!
