House in Quaint Neighborhood near Downtown Milwaukee Pet-Friendly!

The Fonz, Laverne & Shirley!
Happy Days MKE is located in a tidy, safe, quiet neighborhood 3 min - AMF; 12 - Fiserv Forum, and 5 - Petit.
Concerts, Zoo, State Fair, golfing, Brewer's Baseball Stadium, skating, curling, shops, pubs, & restaurants (within 3-12 min).
The Happy Days House is great for a medium-sized group or comfortable for 1 or 2. This spacious (13Ksq ft) beautiful remodel has a 50's era cottage feel where Fonzie and the gang are remembered like old family friends.

This corner lot house on a hill is set in a quiet Milwaukee neighborhood. You'll love the porch where you might have your morning coffee and look out down the beautiful mature tree-lined streets.

As you enter you’ll go through the well-loved backyard to the back door and begin your experience at our cottage-like home. Enjoy the outdoor dining table, fire-pit, and Bar-B-Que grill and hot-tub!

Inside on the first floor, you have the kitchen, dining room, and living room which are open and connected. This area is perfect for people to gather, and relax, yet it has a cozy feel.

The kitchen is large and well-appointed with everything you might need for coffee and cooking. You can easily seat 8 in the dining room (6 at the table and 2 at the peninsula). There is also a large window seat just beyond the dining room table for extra seating.

The kitchen's peninsula counter and bar stools are a great place to set set up when remote working. That's what I like to do when I'm there.

The living room has a queen-sized pull-out bed with a beautiful fireplace anchoring the space and original leaded glass windows.

You have one full bedroom on the first floor, a twin daybed & trundle.

Upstairs, you’ll find the bathroom.
To the right is the queen master bedroom.
Opposite the hallway, you’ll find the bunks (twin over and under full).
Both of these rooms have long walk-in closets.
Down the hallway, you’ll find a fourth bedroom with a twin bed.

Please note:
-We take extra care with cleaning using hot water to sanitize all sheets; we thoroughly clean the bathroom and all other surfaces.

-The house is not wheelchair accessible and has lots of stairs. It could be difficult for an elderly person or someone physically challenged.

I didnt realize that the hot tub was not available in winter months. The listing notes that the ambient temp needs to be 45 but honestly, just say its only available may- september. The house is old, charming, tidy and comfortable with plenty of room to cook in the kitchen. The beds we slept in were very cozy. Hot water takes a while to make it to the bathroom but you're on vacation- whats the rush. This is out of their control but there is massive road construction all around the home (3/2026). Its close to the city and there is a wonderful coffee shop 5 minutes away. The host was super responsive, left snacks for us and water in the fridge- such a nice thing to find in a new place. Thank you!

Peaceful relaxing and comfortable

The owner of this house really has guests comfort at the forefront of this VRBO property. The house was beautifully decorated but beyond that it has so many "extras" that I would never have expected, snacks, bottled water, coffee, beverages in the fridge etc.. I thought that generally if It I needed it, it was provided. Great place to stay.
