Honestly the cutest place we have ever stayed! The Halloween decorations were a fun touch for our spooky little family, and our toddler especially appreciated the toys and books. It was such a special, cozy stop that felt like home. The location was perfect: tucked away in a quiet neighborhood but still close to downtown. The host, Jaimie, even gave us phenomenal restaurant recommendations. We definitely hope to be back one day! Thanks again!

Our stay was short, but this home was the perfect overnight getaway for our family of 5. The home looked exactly as described. It was so clean, welcoming, and comfy. We loved the attention to detail throughout the house and the personal touches too. The gazebo was a great place to relax at the end of the day too. We’ll definitely look to stay here again next time we’re in the area!

Great Stay!

Great communication! Super price for the area. We've stayed her two times now for a sport's tournament and it was the perfect place to relax each evening. Clean, cute, had everything we needed and much better than staying in a noisy hotel with the rest of the team :) The owners are great--super friendly too!

This house is a great little place to stay while in Lacrosse, 5 or 10 minutes to some great boat ramps accessing Black River and Dresbach Dam. Lots of food options and fuel is close. Enough room to back a boat into the driveway for safe overnight parking also!Thank you, Jaime and Spencer for offering this space for everyone to enjoy!
