About Us
We began managing short term rental properties in 2017 with a pair of our own vacation rental cottages in northern Wisconsin. Building on that experience, we began managing properties for other owners in the Milwaukee area a couple years later. We have steadily grown the business, along with our amazing team of cleaners, handymen, and other trusted partners.
Adam brings 20+ years of experience in building construction and maintenance, real estate, and hospitality to lead StayMKE to be the premier short term rental management company in the Milwaukee area. Lauren uses her design expertise to make our properties shine and manages the daily operations of our housekeeping team. As a former high school teacher of 15 years, she is the “Queen of Procedures” and keeps many plates spinning at once.
We’ve hosted many thousands of guests over the years and consider it a privilege to simultaneously provide a wonderful experience for our guests, and the owners who entrust us with the care and management of their properties.
