We needed a place to land for a week between a conference in Chicago and a wedding in Stevens Point, WI as we are from the Philadelphia, PA area and flying back and forth seemed silly, and unnecessarily expensive. I did what I always do when faced with such situations, I went to VRBO. I was not disappointed.
Though we had fewer people than I originally planned on, it was a great place for my husband and daughter to be able to work remotely, without getting in each other’s office calls, my Son-in-Law was able to relax and unwind during his short break between Medical school sessions, and we could visit with my Mother-in-Law and Sister-in-Law and one of her kids. The house is comfortable, the outdoor seating areas are lovely, there are plenty of bedrooms and they are all well appointed and quite comfortable. The house has great natural light, and was spotless when walked in. It’s within a nice stroll to the down town area and a short drive to Lake Michigan. For a rental, it has a very nicely kitchen. I say this last as I’m the odd one who cooks 99.999% of the time when I do a VRBO rental, so always look for a good kitchen when perusing rental possibilities. This house had a nice kitchen, great space, and a lovely water view.
We had a great week, and it was a wonderful place to transition to the intense(and intensely fun!) family wedding that followed.
