    The stairs are extremely steep, so if mobility is at all an issue this is not the spot for you. The place itself was as advertised and worked perfectly for us. You can even see the lake from the window.

    Such a lovely modern and clean property walkable to restaurants, pharmacy, gelato, and bakeries. On a busy Main Street however does not take a way from a quiet and peaceful nights rest as the bedroom is not street facing. Owner very responsive and has literally thought of everything her guests may need. Notepad and pen included. If you are looking for a contemporary spot where you have a mix of city living yet peaceful vibes then you should consider this space. You will not be disappointed!

    Property was great. Was a very cozy layout and was walking distance to a lot of places to eat, explore and go out for drinks. Everything was very clean and was a perfect layout for my wife and I.

    Just what I wanted, a nice, clean, cozy place to stay during a downtown Racine winter event over a weekend. Nice and private and perfect for two people.

    I had a fantastic Labor Day weekend at the graduate on Main Street and Racine . The modern cozy apartment was just a short walk from North Beach making it an ideal spot for Lakeside retreat. The queen size bed and smart TV were perfect for unwinding in the full bath and laundry facilities added extra convenience. The keyless entry made everything hasslefree the host’s Communication was exceptional, responsive and helpful throughout my stay highly recommend for a memorable stay with top-notch hospitality.

    My husband, son and myself stayed here a few days ago and absolutely loved it. It's exactly like the description. Angela was very accommodating and quick to respond anytime I reached out to her. Our son slept on the pull out sofa. It was a little loud out there but not enough to really bother him..just maybe something to think about if you're having someone sleep in the living room. We are going back to Racine in a couple of weeks and are staying here again!

    We had a great time checking out the city! Great food, great shops, great apartment! Safe, plenty of parking on the streets or parking garage, walking distance to the marina, shops and restaurants.

    Rented this place for a girls' vacay with my teenage daughter. She wanted to spend some leisurely time on the beach. North Beach in Racine is rated as one of the most pristine beaches on all of Lake Michigan...it does not disappoint. We also enjoyed the marina, many local restaurants and shops which are all within walking distance. The apartment is well appointed and immaculately clean. The bed was very comfortable and there are ample towels as well as kitchenware/gadgets (even a blender!) The landlord sent multiple emails to check in and provide schedule tips/reminders. This apartment is above the business district on Main St. So parking is as you would expect...metered on the street out front or in a public ramp within one block. The daily parking rate in the ramp is $3.50. Coming from a much larger city, this struck me as quite the bargain! As other reviewers have noted, access to this second floor apartment requires navigating a steep staircase...there is no elevator. We also noticed the street noise (as mentioned in other reviews) and agree that it is barely noticeable from the back of the apartment where the bedroom is situated. Neither of these things was too bothersome to us in the larger scheme of things. Rent with confidence and enjoy!! Also treat yourself to some gelato from the Italian coffee shop across the street!!

    Owner is WONDERFUL and very easy to contact. Unit is exactly as described- warm, inviting, stocked with all the essentials and very comfortable. We enjoyed our weekend stay in this nicely decorated unit. Our only notes are (1) the high ceilings are great for ambience but not fun walking up the steep stairs, (2) location had some really good restaurants closeby like Maple Table but overall a bit bare. If you enjoy walking, the waterfront harbor is only a few blocks away. For us, this unit was perfect for a relazing weekend getaway.
