Wedding Weekend

We had a wedding in the area and this property was perfectly located to downtown lake Geneva and many resorts. The property had two bedrooms upstairs for the kids, one was a loft with two twin beds but worked well to put a pack and play. Property was clean and decorated cutely. Definitely would stay again!

Perfect home-like feeling

This place was perfect for the 5 of us sisters. We had a wonderful time, the place is wonderful with all we needed. It is well stocked in the kitchen, the bath and bedroom supplies were plentiful, and the place is in excellent condition and well maintained. If we ever go to Lake Geneva again, this will be the place we choose to stay! It has been the best VRBO we've had in the few years we've been using them!

Terrific stay

Very clean, nicely renovated house. Well equipped kitchen. Very quiet location. Very nice owners. The owner came on a Sunday morning to snowblow the driveway to make sure we could get out after a snowstorm the night before.

perfect summer cottage getaway!

We had a great stay at Karla's place! the place is very cute and clean! You could definitely tell whoever stayed before us did not respect the outdoor space and left it a mess but Karla did the best she could cleaning it up in the short amount of time she had before we arrived and made sure we were taken care of. She was extremely responsive to any questions we had and provided us with anything we needed. We would definitely come back and stay!

Family getaway

It was a nice little home in a quiet neighborhood. We enjoyed the change of scenery. One night the electricity went out and we were concerned as we had breastmilk and medications that required refrigeration. The property manager communicated with us during the process and worked with us through this inconvenience. Overall great stay but would recommend to double check the dishes in the cabinets as some still had food particles.

Great stay!

Perfect for a week-long stay and very family friendly. Big yard that the kids loved running around in! Also really appreciated the baby gate and high chair! The decor was really welcoming and furnishings were very comfortable. No complaints about the property whatsoever. You just have to make sure you shop and prepare in advance for food, etc. because there’s no place nearby to make a quick run to a store if you forget something. It’s about a 10-15 minute drive into town. But as far as amenities, appliances, cleaning supplies etc., it’s all there!

overall excellent with some suggestions

Hello - we would suggest that there be bedside lamps in the guest bedrooms as there were none. The information regarding the TV remote was somewhat confusing in the book at the home and the TV remote had no batteries. The light on the stairs to the two second floor guest bedrooms did not work, and the smoke detector was not there, just an empty folder. The kitchen was well appointed. The furniture was comfortable and nicely arranged for conversation. I would highly recommend this accommodation to others. The suggestions we have are relatively minor and easily fixed.

Great location with plenty of room

You can't beat this place for the price and the location. We lived on the large deck in the evenings. You have all of the amenities that you need. You may have to search a little for some of them, but they are there. The house is literally 10 minutes from Lake Geneva and easy to get to. It fit our needs and provided us a place to spread out and relax. Karla is very easy to work with and quick to answer any questions. One item of note...if you have AT&T as your cell phone provider, you will not receive much reception at the house. Wi-fi access speed was really good, though, so we communicated that way. We would stay here again.

Comfortable house in great location

This house was perfect for the 4 of us who were attending a reunion. However, there are a few things that could make your stay more enjoyable, such as adding a dresser in the upstairs bedroom that has twin beds. There's no place to put your clothes in that room. Adding lamps to the upstairs bedrooms would also be nice - we brought 2 up from downstairs so we could read. Also, when taking a shower upstairs, the water went completely off for several minutes when a toilet downstairs was flushed. That definitely needs to be fixed. All in all, it was a comfortable home. We enjoyed sitting outside in the back yard in the morning and evening.

Perfect place for a bachelorette party

This was the perfect place for our group of 7 women, celebrating a bachelorette party. The house had everything we needed and plenty of space for everyone. It seemed like it would be family friendly too as there was a high chair in the kitchen. The only complaint I can think of is that some of the dishes were not as clean as they could have been. Overall, we enjoyed the stay and I would stay here again!

Enjoyable stay

We enjoyed our stay. It was a mild inconvenience that we could not drink the water but we picked up some bottled water nearby. The location was close to the activities we planned. Note that the room with the twin beds does not have a door that closes because of the odd shape of sloping attic ceiling. It does however feel fairly private because it has a hallway that leads to it and turns a corner. We enjoyed playing the games in the house.

About the host

Why they chose this property

We wanted a peaceful, quiet home but the convenience of being close to amenities and lake life in town. This offered both.

What makes this property unique

Beautiful and peaceful back deck to enjoy summer BBQ's while kids play in the fenced in yard or family plays outdoor yard games. Located within an mile of boating piers, you're just minutes from home to water and back for the best of lake life.
