About this property

Lakefront Retreat - Private Dock, Fire Pit & Panoramic Sunset Views

This inviting, fully furnished three-bedroom lake home offers the perfect balance of entertainment, relaxation, and the comforts of home. Nestled on the shores of Okauchee Lake, this newly remodeled retreat boasts stunning lake views throughout and a spacious, open-concept great room with seating for six, a breakfast bar, and a fully equipped kitchen. For those who love to cook, the kitchen comes stocked with all the essentials, while an outdoor gas grill allows you to prepare meals while enjoying the fresh lake air.

Step outside to enjoy multi-level decks, including a totally rebuilt composite deck spanning 500 square feet—ideal for sunbathing, dining, and socializing. Designed for durability and low maintenance, this expansive outdoor space offers the perfect setting to soak in the breathtaking lake views. The private dock provides easy access to the lake for fishing, launching a kayak, or docking your personal watercraft. While swimming conditions may vary due to natural lake vegetation, nearby swimming spots ensure plenty of opportunities for a refreshing dip. After a day on the water, unwind around the outdoor fire pit, roasting marshmallows and sharing stories under a starlit sky.

The lakefront features a unique 15’x16’ party room (dry-finished boathouse) with a refrigerator and seating area—an ideal spot for lakeside gatherings. Guests can also enjoy two complimentary kayaks, lifejackets, floats, and an aqua lily pad, providing endless fun on the water. If you're looking to explore the lake further, boat rentals are available nearby at Tinus Marine and Golden Boat Rentals, offering pontoon boats, jet skis, and more.

Inside, the home features three comfortable bedrooms: a master suite with a king bed and panoramic lake views, a second bedroom with a queen bed, and a third bedroom with two sets of bunk beds. Central air, a cozy fireplace, and ceiling fans keep the home comfortable year-round.

Okauchee Lake is known for its fantastic waterfront dining, live music, and vibrant nightlife, all just a short boat or car ride away. Nearby, the charming towns of Delafield and Oconomowoc offer a variety of boutique shopping, antique stores, fine dining, breweries, and a stylish martini bar perfect for a relaxing night out. Whether exploring Delafield’s historic downtown or enjoying Oconomowoc’s beautiful lakeside parks, there’s something for everyone.

No matter the season, there’s always something to enjoy! The home is just a short drive from the Kettle Moraine Forests, where you’ll find scenic hiking trails, cross-country skiing, and snowmobile routes, making this an ideal getaway year-round. Whether you're taking in the vibrant fall foliage, enjoying a snowy winter adventure, or basking in the summer sun, this property is the perfect home base for outdoor enthusiasts.

For even more adventure, we are just a half-hour drive from the Milwaukee County Zoo and nearby outlet malls, making this the perfect home base for both relaxation and family-friendly activities. Additional attractions include Wisconsin State Fairgrounds, The Pettit National Ice Center, Country Springs Water Park, and the outdoor theater at Lapham Peak.
