The property was exactly how the pictures/description was. I would recommend to others.

It is a very nice property neatly freshened attractively and practically, apparently recently. Great water views from four different levels. We stuck with the upper one. We did not swim in front. We found a great beach at Lake Geneva, and Crystal Lake, both of them great for kids, about 1/2 hour away. Make reservations for the animal safari near Lake Geneva. They were sold-out for several days when we visited. Enjoyed the local food. Nearest grocery store was very adequate. I gave 'location' 4* because I feel technically, the neighbor-house that probably has not had a dime invested in it in 20 years, looks slobby, but, it was fun watching the ground-hog sneak into its foundation and under its concrete steps. I do not feel it is a security or safety threat, but, I am not going to pretend it is a neighborhood of stately homes. The other neighbor has probably not trimmed his shrubbery for 5 years, but, it was not a problem. The remainder of the neighborhood is upbeat and nice. Do not be disturbed by the two neighbors. The neighborhood was not noisy or rowdy at any time while we were there. We enjoyed wandering through it walking our dogs. The family all left contented from a great vacation, thanks!

From the moment we arrived, it was clear our stay at this charming cottage on the lake was going to be a memorable one. Nestled on the tranquil shore of the beautiful lake, it was the perfect escape from the rush of everyday life. The cottage was as inviting as a picture from a postcard, a delightful blend of comfort and style. The interiors were spotless, cozy, and tastefully decorated, making us feel immediately at home. The blend of modern conveniences and rustic charm hit just the right note.

Beautiful home on the water. Everything was new and clean and my kids loved swimming and paddling on the lake all day. We could only stay for 2 night but wish we could have stayed longer.

very clean. great view

Family and I had a ton of fun. Highly recommended! Pretty much have everything you need for a short stay!

Great place with a beautiful lake view. Grill seemed to leak so we did not use it. Other then that was a great place

Pros – There were lots of pros, but I only have 1500 characters. :( Cons - Upon arrival, we went down to the gaming area and I went to use the half bathroom. The toilet seat was dirty and I could tell that it had not been cleaned, so wiped it clean before using it. I was weary of what else had not been cleaned, so I started wiping down the kitchen counters and noticed the floors had crumbs still in the corners, something skicky dried onto the floor, and the floors needed a good mopping. I reached out to Maria and so that she could communicate what I found with her cleaning company. She said she had been over after they cleaned and did not notice these issues, but came over to clean the toilets and Swiffer the floors again. In the morning we also found unidentifiable stains in the grout of the bathroom floor and dishes with dried food in the cupboards. I texted Maria and let her know that we would be checking out by 11am and going home. I expressed that our ideas of clean could be different and I am definitely a “clean freak” and since her house was rated high for cleanliness, I expected more. Maria and I were both frustrated with the situation as her home has been rated all 5’s till now. Had I not lived 1.5 hours away, I would probably have worked harder at a different solution, but I just did not have the capacity to tackle this issue when I was hoping to just spend the weekend relaxing.

Great spot on the lake if you have a boat! If you are not aware you have to purchase a pass to take a boat out on the lakes.

Amazing property owners. Beautiful views. Accuracy of description of property was on point. Extremely clean

We had fun in the cozy lake cottage. The view was beautiful, everything was in great condition, and it was a great location for lots of fun— like a day trip to Six Flags.

This beautiful home is just absolutely wonderful! The views are so breathtaking, having an upstairs and downstairs patio facing the lake was so fantastic, our jaws literally dropped when we saw the lake front view! It was incredibly clean and very well stocked with towels and other necessities. Maria is such an incredibly sweet and accommodating host, she even brought us extra bottled water the day we arrived, she went out of her way to make sure we had a wonderful stay. The downstairs area with the bar is so cool! We loved playing darts and poker down there together. We also got to see some really beautiful birds, hawks and robins (and a cute little fluffy guy who looked like a beaver!) My daughter and her fiancé had fun using the adjacent dock for jumping into the river on their inflatable tubes. I can’t say enough great things about this home, many thanks to Maria and Todd for making this a vacation to remember!

Such a wonderful place! Host is absolutely wonderful with excellent communication! The home is beautiful with amazing views. Bed were so comfortable with premium bedding. Can’t wait to be back!

Great property on the water. Easy process from start to finish.

This was a great property - greaat views of the lake, with lots of lush vegetation around. The property was clean and quiet.

My husband wanted to do something different for his birthday and they was just a perfect spot to relax and enjoy our time with our furry babies and our niece & nephew. We would love to come back with a better weather to really enjoy to outside nature

Stayed here for a girl’s weekend and it was perfect! The property was extremely clean when we checked in. The home is absolutely lovely and exactly as described. Kitchen was equipped with all cooking needs, beds were comfortable, and the fireplaces were a nice touch to add to the coziness. The property is also close to shopping and restaurants. The host was great and always responded very quickly. Thank you!! Can’t wait to come back during the summer to take advantage of the deck and lake!

Enjoyed a short break from our Naperville home. Lovely , modern, cottage with amazing lake views, cute downstairs area which teenagers loved with TV, Bar and Games. Sunrise was awesome. Owners were very responsive. Neighborhood is OK and homes are being upgraded around . Close to stores and restaurants. We would stay again.

Very clean and cozy. Wonderful lake view!

Nice home on the lake. Pretty clean with the exception of some dog hair. Very welcoming, cozy and comfortable beds. Great for a small group! Great hosts

The perfect comfy place to stay! My dogs and I loved the big windows facing the lake and the house was clean and recently updated. Enjoyed that it was a close drive to a lot of great parks to take the dogs on walks. Had a wonderful, relaxing time.

Had a great time here with my wife and dog. Very close to town and a great view of the lake. Home was cosy, hosts were responsive, and having a warm fire was a perfect touch.

Great weekend getaway for the family. The Volo museum is right down the road. Extremely clean house and great views !!!

This was a very nice place to stay at, and the owners made the process very easy.
