Cozy lakeside property that has everything you need. Our family enjoyed the deck, fishing off the dock, playing bags and especially the fire pit down by the water!

We enjoyed our stay at this lakefront house, especially our morning coffee out on the deck looking at the lake. The house was located not far from restaurants and other small towns. Jessica was very helpful with giving us suggestions of things to do, restaurants in the area, and helped with connecting the television. We definitely are thinking of staying again and perhaps renting the other three houses with family and friends next year.

My college bestie and I have started doing a short girls weekend and this area is the half point for both of us. We had a great time at this place. The lawn area is shared with 3 other cabins that I believe the owners own as well. Not a huge problem for us at all. There are two fire pits that you are able to use. It rained all day that we were there, but we watched a few movies in the morning and then the tv didn’t want to work any more, so we went out to explore. We traveled to Antioch and the Lake Geneva both are very cute towns with great shops!! If you enjoy shopping check those out. The bar next door on Friday nights has a band playing until 8 and then the dance club. It wasn’t that bad or loud, but bring an extra fan or ear plugs if you think you need them. Overall, we would suggest this place.

This was our first time staying in someone's home. We have always used hotels. I was a bit nervous. But Jessica, our VRBO host was amazing and put me at ease. The home was roomy, clean, comfy, well appointed with furniture and kitchen supplies. Best of all, the house was right on the lake front. We woke to beautiful mornings with the fog lifting as the days warmed. We will use VRBO for future travel. This was a real pleasure. Thank you!

The overall experience was fantastic! It was only about 40 minutes away from our home but felt like a Wisconsin get away. With being right on the water to enjoy some fishing to relaxing around the big fire pit in the evening. With also having a cottage with modern and up to date amenities this place hasn’t disappointed either of the 2 times we have visited! Thank you Jessica!
