Perfect Little House
This charming house was very clean and all of our accommodations were wonderful. We attended a wedding at Mercantile Hall just a few blocks away, so the location was perfect. It was walking distance to everything downtown: breakfast, dinner, bars, wedding hall, coffee shops. Our group of 4 was very comfortable but there was plenty of room for a couple more. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and highly recommend this house!

Retro Magic!
Donna is a wonderful host and the house was fantastic! Perfect location and just right for our group of 5…we were close to Lake Geneva for walking the shore line and other activities and we were able to go on a great bike ride right from the house. Next time we will definitely bring our kayaks and check out the Fox River. Thanks for your hospitality!

Charming and comfortable stay
We were attending an event at the nearby State Recreation Area (VRBO won’t let me actually include the name, IYKYK) but didn’t want to stay in a hotel in Kenosha. This location was perfect - less than 15 minutes away - and the accommodations were quiet and very comfortable. The house has a very retro vibe, most of us grew up in the 70s and 80s and felt right at home. Host Donna had clear instructions and responded quickly to all of our questions. Highly recommended.

Family Wedding
Great location! We were within walking distance of downtown Burlington, which had a nice street festival taking place and was close to excellent food. In addition, we were just minutes away from the venue for a family members wedding. The place was clean and exactly what was described in the overview of the place. Would definitely stay there again!

Clean, comfortable and cozy!
We had part of my daughter's wedding party stay here for my daughter's wedding this past weekend at Veteran's Terrace. They were so happy and said it was very clean, comfortable and cozy. They were also able to walk to all of the locations that were part of the wedding. It was a great alternative to staying in a hotel.

Quiet, fun place to stay
I always try to consider all elements of a stay in my rating. Overall it’s a fun and great place to stay in an area with limited options. Reasonably priced for the surprisingly large interior. It’s deceivingly spacious, and sittti g outside you’d never know it was so big. We didn’t get to use the patio area, but it looks like it’d be fun. Awesome finds throughout the home as well. No critiques on the home, but the parking is very tight for pickups, especially large pickups. Thank you Donna for a great stay! We’ll be back!

Perfect house for our family of 4 adults.
This is a cute clean property. We were in town for a couple days to attend a family wedding. We opted for this location which was in walking distance to the wedding venue. It was so nice to have the extra room with our 2 adult kids. The covered patio in the back was perfect for our morning coffee. Some additional pluses on this property are comfortable beds, plenty of towels, one and a half bathrooms and stocked coffee!

Fabulous property for weekend wedding in Burlington!
My stepdaughter's wedding was at Veterans Terrace in Burlington this past weekend. I booked this VRBO almost a year in advance (I'm an OCD planner) and am so glad I snatched it up when I did! Although I arrived after dark, the owner had left porch lights on with clear instructions on accessing the property. She also left a six-pack of local beer in the fridge for us - what a nice touch!! The beds were comfy, the kitchen fully stocked, and the house was toasty warm despite the fact that it got bitterly cold while we were there. The decor is truly mid-century modern which brought back some fond memories. We managed to make 1.5 bathrooms work with 4 adults - no issue at all. Donna responded to messages within minutes. The house is in an ideal location - super close to everything. If it had been warmer, we would have walked everywhere! I definitely recommend the Town Fryer diner which is 400 feet from the house - we ate there for breakfast and lunch during our stay, and it was yummy. Overall, I'd give the house, location, and owner 100 stars if I could!

After breaking my ankle the night before our trip, Donna was gracious enough to allow us to change our trip dates. She didn’t have to. She could’ve pocketed our $ and turned the other way. Thank you Donna for being so kind.

Perfectly Serene
We stayed here for a wedding that was about 30 mins away, the property is super comfortable and clean. There are extra pillows and blankets. The listing down plays the beauty of this home. It’s like going to grandmas house. The back yard is beautiful and so comfortable to lounge in. The amenities are great, snacks and extras in case you leave anything behind. Full size shampoo, conditioner and body wash too. The town is beautiful there are plenty of places to walk end we ended up walking to get dinner most nights. If you like to fish bring your poles and get the license. Wish we would have had more time to stay and explore the area. Only suggestions I would have is a fire pit in the backyard would be great even if it’s propane and different colored towels maybe color coded for room. I washed towels almost everyday since my kids were losing track of their washcloths. Donna was a great host and checked in on us. There was a tornado warning but the basement was comfortable and clean to wait it out. The town is policed well and is very family friendly. Thanks again!
