First, this little cottage was super cute and well-appointed. The bed was comfortable and there was an air mattress for the kids. The hosts were SUPER responsive when 1) we arrived and I couldn't for the life of me find the email with the door code. Vince answered his phone in the middle of his dinner and got me the code immediately and 2.) We got lucky enough to get to experience a once-in-a-lifetime heatwave and they delivered a second fan right away.
Also, the proximity to Green Lake and the zoo are great.
The downsides: I do not blame the hosts for this little home being an absolute oven during a record-setting heatwave, as buildings in this region are not designed for such weather. That being said, don't come during a heatwave. It was almost unbearable. Second, and I know this was mentioned in other reviews, if you have a window open, the road noise that is basically in the backyard is VERY LOUD. We arrived on a Saturday and it sounded like a busy freeway, complete with people honking and revving loud engines until at least 2 or 3 am. The other nights were quieter but morning traffic noise started back up around 6 am. If you are noise-sensitive, this is not the house for you. We did discover earplugs in the drawer.
In a nutshell: Really great hosts, meh location.
