This Powers Lake property was the perfect place for our golf weekend. Centrally located between a bunch of great courses and close to Lake Geneva for nightlife. We loved the house and the lakefront property. Powers Lake was awesome as it was not as crowded as other lakes in the area. The Rock Bar was a plus for food and drinks close by. Would definitely stay again

We had a wonderful stay at the beautiful Laid Back Lake front cottage! What a beautiful view of Powers Lake! Our family enjoyed the large space of the house, stocked kitchen, fire pit, the deck and the nice lawn and dock. There were many chairs and lake floating devices. We all loved the large windows overlooking the sunset. Suzy (the owner) was very responsive and answered all of our questions. We will be back to rent this lovely home!

Found this property for a last minute get away to Powers Lake. Great location. We all have had a great time including my Portuguese Water Dog, Kinzie. Water was perfect and there was plenty of room for us. Looking to rent there again next year.

This was our second time visiting the Lakehouse and it didn’t disappoint! Ample room, scenic views and great place to bring kids. We didn’t have access to a working dishwasher until the last day, but the property manager and owner were very up front about it before we arrived. We highly recommend coming here if you have a larger group.

We rented this lakefront cottage for MDW 2023, and it exceeded all our expectations. We were a group of adults with our dog, and found that the house and lakefront property were exceptional. Very spacious, clean, and with lots of interesting history. I had been communicating with Susie in the weeks leading up to our trip, and she was very responsive and helpful in recommending other activities during our stay.
When we head back to Powers Lake, I will certainly try to stay here again.

This was an awesome property and vacation. The house was more than large enough and yet still very cozy. We played a lot of ping pong. We will be back. I also found the house history on the wall really interesting. Thank you for sharing that.

This is a beautiful place on a beautiful piece of property. The 10 of us had plenty of space, both indoors and outdoors. The lake view is unbeatable. We all had fun swimming, fishing & boating. The ping pong table was great for indoor fun. We appreciated how well-stocked the lake house was. Communication from the owner was excellent. I highly recommend this place!

The property and location is fantastic.. We had young children there and it was very safe for them in the shallow water. The house was perfect for all age ranges and provided a perfect vacation for our first trip to Wisconsin in a long time

We had such a wonderful time at this charming cottage on beautiful Powers Lake. The house was so clean and very comfortable. The views of the lake from the main living room and kitchen are stunning. We rented a pontoon from right across the lake and spent most of the days either on the lake or on the deck looking at the lake. We spent the evenings on the beautiful side yard playing bags and making s’mores around the fire pit. We would definitely come back to this absolutely perfect lake house!!

Lake Views and Relaxation
House was well stocked with everything we needed with enough of a cabin feel that just seemed to fit with the lake. We loved the elevated full deck, where we spent each night watching the sunset turn to cottage lights and boat lights around the lake. So peaceful!! Kitchen had a long bar type counter, great for breakfast conversation. Super clear lake water. Got up early each morning to sit on the pier with my coffee and watch the early morning fisherman do their thing.

Beautiful lakefront stay
We had the time of our life staying on this beautiful property. The beach and pier are in a small bay that is protected and quiet. Great for swimming & floating on air mattresses. House faces west, so we really enjoyed the sunsets. Loved every minute!

The perfect quiet spot for our fall get away. The house is well-stocked with plenty of space. This home is older, but has no shortage of character. The owner was great to work with and very responsive.

Liked this place. Was spacious enough for 2-3 families. Felt like going back in time a bit to the 50s. The boat dock was a key as was the firepit. It was a little bit buggy, but that is a lake house in September.

We enjoyed a couple of days at the house - the canoe, the pier, the proximity to the lake. It was all very nice.

This cottage belongs to a very intelligent family and has very interesting family history. Cottage is located in a pretty crowded lakeside neighborhood, however it’s a peninsula spot and the place is secluded and very nice. Cottage is staying directly on the Powers Lake and it has own pier for a boat. Kids may play and swim in the lake because it’ shallow water next to the cottage. It’s ideal place for family reunion. You will have everything you need during your stay. Early morning swimming and evening sunsets are amazing! The whole family, adults, kids, and even a baby enjoyed 3 days weekend stay. Everyone had very good time. Thank you to the owner and manager for keeping cottage in good condition! Thank you to the owner for sharing family happiness with us!

We arrived at the house on Thursday evening and it was spotless. The house was very clean and it had a cozy feeling to it. Everything we needed was there for us. The lake water was perfect to swim around and play in.The location of the home was ideal as it wasn't noisey or loud at all. I'll remember those peaceful sunsets from the deck for a long time to come. Hopefully my family will return again next season. Susan was a wonderful host.

At first glance, the property sits poised as a perfectly preserved time capsule amid modern, more updated lake houses in this quiet neighborhood. When you get inside, the view takes your breath away as you view an almost 300 degree view of Powers Lake. Situated on "the point" we loved both the downstairs access to the lake as well as the wooded area, upstairs, for family pictures. We needed an affordable place to host our grandfather's birthday and provide local family to come by and visit. We were so grateful we chose this property over the more pricey but smaller options on Lake Geneva.
The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. Labels were plentiful to take guess work out of putting things away. The rooms were clean and well lit with natural light. The well water tasted fine with the filtration system in the basement. No need to buy replacement filtered water from the grocery store.
The ping pong table was a huge hit with my kids (6 and 3 yrs). The calm waters of Powers Lake made daily swimming very easy. The water was clear and not too cold!
Even with the power going out for a couple of hours in the morning after a storm, Susie the property manager was very responsive and helpful on the VRBO message feed.
We cannot recommend this place enough. Coming from Arkansas and Texas, we loved this retreat and like many of the families in the guest book, we would have no problems booking again.
