Host profile image
•Huh-DEE-yuh• of Elegant Homes here!

Positive, enthusiastic, and ambitious professional who is a Chicago native. I am a real estate agent and a business coach/public speaker, and my life's goal is to make a positive impact. As a host, my friendliness, thoughtfulness, and attention to detail is what makes me stand out, and I'm excited to host guests at my listings. As a guest, I respect people's homes, & I love traveling for fun/biz!

Why they chose this property

Waupaca is a beautiful little city in central WI, and the Chain O'Lakes area is a serene and wooded piece of nature. This home is in a very quiet and peaceful area with almost 2-acres of land in a nice residential area. Although we do not have a dock, it is a few minutes walk to the lake, and there are docks/launching points nearby for those with boats and toys.

What makes this property unique

The tent bed in the "kid's room!" It is one of my favorite design features in this home, and I could see myself as a kid (or even adult!) loving getting that bed! . Also, the amount of space in the home is special as we can comfortably sleep 16+ people (up to 21!), so it is perfect for large groups, family reunions, corporate events, and more! Everyone can enjoy cohabitating instead of splitting into multiple homes.
