About this property

Steps from Downtown

You can walk to everything downtown! All the restaurants and bars, the Fox Cities Exhibition Center, the PAC, the art and history museums, Lawrence University, all the downtown events, and more. And if you're driving, you are only about a half hour from Green Bay or Oshkosh.

You will have the entirety of this fully renovated house. 3-4 bedrooms, 2 baths, and lots of extra space. Tons of original character, hardwood floors and a clawfoot tub. Fully stocked kitchen. Driveway will comfortably park 5-6 cars.

Just so you are aware, the house is located on a busier street with a railroad crossing nearby. But that also means that there are businesses nearby for your convience such as two restaurants across the street and many others within a couple of blocks.

Great stay!

Beautiful house with plenty of space for our family Christmas gathering! It was spacious and well-stocked, making our stay very comfortable. The only minor drawback was the tight parking, but given the area, it’s understandable and not something easily changed.

Charming House

The house is meticulously clean. It has plenty of charming touches and interesting decor. It offered comfortable sleeping spaces for us and our two teenage sons. We had planned to watch some college football, but the house isn’t equipped with a regular tv service and we struggled to find a way to stream with our own subscriptions. Not a complaint, just something to consider when booking. There are probably plenty of places nearby to catch a game. It is in a very loud area, which is generally disclosed in the host’s description of the home. Revving cars, two separate emergency vehicle incidents and Sunday morning church bells made sleep elusive in the master bedroom. But our son who slept in the bedroom at the back of the house said he was not disturbed by any of it. I wouldn’t deter anyone from staying here as long as a restful stay isn’t the priority. It’s a lovely house in a very convenient location if going out on the town is the main attraction.

Siblings Getaway

We chose Appleton as a place to gather and do a siblings weekend. The house was beautifully decorated, organized, clean, and stocked with all the essentials. The fact we were able to pretty much park my car when we arrived and not use it again was huge! Downtown is literallt a 5 minute walk and everything you would need is there. We did the farmer's market on Saturday morning and that was fun to explore also! If we are ever in this area again we definitely will be looking to see if this rental is available! Thanks for the great hospitality and letting us make some amazing memories!
