Summary: We stayed with family for a short trip. Overall, it’s a nice old house. Although it’s on main road, it felt quiet as there was not a lot of traffic. It’s short drive to Devil’s lake state park where we went. We didn’t end up going to WI Dells but it’s close enough. We were able to check in early which was nice. Dining table was big enough to fit us. Living room had plenty of furniture for us to relax and chat. There were enough beds for us. Basement beds are both sofa beds. Wifi worked fine. Overall, we enjoyed our stay here. Only drawback was that upstairs bathtub didn’t drain well so water would collect for a bit before draining out. Downstairs bathroom in basement worked fine. Kitchen was functional but small as expected with older houses.
