Stayed a long weekend with some friends. The living space was set up nicely. Pool/ping pong table and other games filled in our down time. Plenty of sleeping space. 10-15 minutes from downtown.

The space was great for our family… the kids loved the games and the big family room was ideal for us. The host was very responsive and we appreciated his local recommendations! Easy to get to various neighborhoods in Milwaukee. Had a great week!

A group of us came to Milwaukee for graduation and stayed at the Blue Store House. We loved the house and it's quirkiness. It was also centrally located to all our points of interest. The host is gracious and responsive. We had a seemless experience and will go back there as soon as we can.

Enjoyed 3 nights in Milwaukee with my family (husband, mother-in-law, 4 kids- ages 9, 3, 1, 1). We were excited about this house and the entertainment it offered for the kids. The layout was perfect, as everything is on one floor. 3 of the bedrooms are in the back of the house- perfect for when the younger kids went to bed earlier than the rest. The kitchen was equipped with a Keurig but only had enough k-cups for one cup of coffee per adult each morning. When we contacted the owner for more, he was very responsive and we were able to get additional coffee for our stay. The home is definitely old and has a few quirks (I.e. “meat locker” bunk room door does not close, toilet paper hung in the front door window panels in lieu of curtains). We were extremely disappointed with the overall cleanliness and didn’t feel the house had been thoroughly cleaned in a while. We found a bowl with what looked like moldy food in one of the closets and there were nails and a brick in the corner of the bunk room on the floor. We provided this feedback, with pictures, to the owner upon returning home. Overall, the house suited us for our visit but would not stay again and would not recommend.

We booked this property to have a family gathering for my dad’s 90th birthday, and it was perfect for our needs. The front room that was formerly a store is spacious but still comfortable. It has beautiful wood moldings, tasteful accents of blue and black paint, a marble nook that was likely an old desk. It’s very funky but charming. The attached back quarters was great with a second, small living area and some bedrooms. Our two young granddaughters shared the former freezer-space-turned-loft-bedroom. It was lined with wood and was cozy for them—we loved this room. The kitchen, though small, was workable, fun, and well-stocked. We were able to make the front area festive for the party and everyone had a great time. There was a great assortment of games for all ages--foosball, board games, video games, and a giant connect 4—such a nice variety and it made it fun for everyone. The outside was inviting with the colorful mural. The location is well situated for going any direction in Milwaukee, and communication with the owner/manager was timely and helpful. There's plenty of parking, but a couple of off-limits spots, which the owner explained very clearly.
