I only wish there were more stars. The Doe house offered everything we could have hoped for and more for our daughter’s wedding. The house was perfectly appointed and could not have been more comfortable. Highly highly recommend.

Thank you Sean! I am glad it worked out with your son and his friends to stay at The Doe House. They were respectful of the neighborhood and I am grateful for that. They also washed a set of sheets to help clean up! So nice of them. There was some beer spilled on the floors and rugs that our housekeeper will have to take extra time on but other than that, the place was treated well by the guys. Thank you for that!
Incredible property and owners were soooo nice ! Hope to be able to stay there again in the future. This is the nicest VRBO I've ever seen !

Thank you Danny for your nice comments! We definitely want you and any of your guests to join us again any time. The whole neighborhood loved having you there! Take care and hope to have you all back again next year!
The Doe House was the perfect choice for the two nights we were in Oshkosh, celebrating our son's wedding! The historic charm and elegance of the property, combined with the modern amenities, made it the ideal location for this special occasion. We were able to host the rehearsal dinner the night before the wedding, and also enjoy wonderful overnight accommodations for two families. We very much appreciated Becky's hospitality and excellent communication!

Thank you for your kind comments about our ancestral home! We were happy that the rehearsal party worked out for your group. Please come back and stay with us again some time!
We absolutely loved our stay at the Doe House! Our family along with some soon to be in laws stayed at the house and it was the prefect setting for a beautiful wedding weekend. The bridal party even got ready at the house and couldn't stop talking about how impressive the house was. We loved the history of the how well taken care of it is. Becky was a fantastic host and her attention to detail and small touches did not go unnoticed.

Thank you for staying at The Doe House! We loved having you and the whole group! I hope you can all come back again soon!
The property was absolutely sublime. Every bit as beautiful as pictured - immaculately clean, with A extras like heated bathroom floors, more towels than a family of six could use, and super cozy beds/bedding. The host went above and beyond to personalize our stay - texting in advance of our stay to get an idea of our visit with ideas for things to see and do, left us thoughtful treats, and was available for questions during our stay. Our family is crossing our fingers for a reading to return to Oshkosh and The Doe House.

I stayed here with close friends the night before my wedding and it was gorgeous! We had so much fun and it was very memorable. They also were kind enough to extend our check out time by an hour. They were super hospitable and if I get the opportunity I would stay again!

Congratulations on your wedding! And please come back again - you could have a reunion with your bridal party!
Was a great location for our weekend with family and friends from different states. Host added touch of local bakery items. Thanks!. I did take one star off of accuracy of rating since it lists a hot tub in amenities.

Thank you for your review Guy. We are glad you enjoyed your stay - you and your family were wonderful guests and I hope you come back. Thank you for pointing out the error for a Spa/Whirlpool. We have 2 lovely Steam Shower Spas with no place to list that amenity in VRBO. I hope you were able to indulge in them! I have removed Spa/Whirlpool as an amenity to avoid confusion in the future. Thank you!
The house is absolutely beautiful! We were in town for a volleyball tournament and stayed at the Doe House. It is a very cute, historic mansion with tons of space! Becky was wonderful and very responsive to everything inquiry. I would 100% recommend this place to anyone. Beautiful house and grounds.

The Doe House makes coming to Oshkosh feel like home!
The love and care put into the restoration of this property is the same love and care the owner shows you when making sure you feel at home staying at The Doe House. The kitchen and location makes you ask, should I be dining in or eating out. We always choose to do a little of both. Centrally located in downtown Oshkosh allowing you to access amazing places to eat, doing some quick shopping or grab a cup of coffee (all on foot). Do not hesitate when booking your next stay!

About the host
Hosted by Rebecca Brown
Rebecca and her husband Paul Williams bought the Doe House when it was on the auction block in order to save it. They worked with Laib Restoration of Oshkosh to replace pipes and get the house in livable condition again. Renting to people for parties and occasions is what the house is all about! It is quite an experience to stay in a 150+ year old Victorian Masion!
William Doe built the house in 1869 with renowned architect William Waters. Rebecca Doe Brown is the 3x great grand daughter and namesake of William Doe's 3rd child Rebecca Doe Jackson.
Why they chose this property
This property is historic and unique. With the 11 foot ceilings, old windows and creaky 150 year old floors, it is an experience to stay in a Victorian Mansion. Rebecca Brown's 2x great grandmother was married in the house in Jan 1877 and they loved to have parties and open houses on New Year's Day and July 4th.
What makes this property unique
Walking distance from Historic Downtown Oshkosh Main Street restaurants, the Grand Opera House and Leach Amphitheater. Two blocks from the historic Eagles Lodge - The Howard, The Gibson Social Club, Oshkosh Public Library and Downtown YMCA. Nearby is Menominee Park on the lake, the historic Oshkosh Yacht Club - The Waters, the Paine Art Center and UW - Oshkosh Four miles from the Experimental Aircraft Association Museum
Ballroom-sized living room with eleven foot ceilings for executive meetings and concerts up to 50 people. Bridesmaids can enjoy time together prior to the big event. Bridal portraits in a romantic & historic setting.
