Lovely home close to town

This is a very clean, comfortable home that was perfect for four friends to spend a weekend. The decor has been beautifully updated and it is a short distance from town. The host was very accommodating and always responded promptly. I would gladly stay here again!

Great home and location

We enjoyed our time at The Lighthouse. The location to downtown shops and beach worked out well for our teens to explore. The home provides two separate sitting areas, and this along with the four bedrooms, provides a lot of space. Easy parking. Nice outdoor patio area. Many extras provided by the homeowners with toiletries and kcups, a very welcoming touch.

Beautiful home!

This property worked very well for our high school reunion with 6 women. Lots of space to gather and close enough to town to walk to dinner, shopping and the lake. I would definitely book this property again. Thanks Lisa!

Great place for our reunion

Everyone in our group was delighted with the comfort of the property. It is spacious, with many beds! We enjoyed hanging out around the large dining table and on the comfy sectional and chairs in the living area. The kitchen is large and we found all we needed for fixing meals. Friday night some of us ate at the nearby Mexican restaurant. It was delicious. We took an easy walk to downtown on Saturday. We did not use any of the outdoor amenities - it was a bit chilly, but the fire pit area looked inviting! I received kudos for finding such a great place! Thanks!

We loved our stay at this home. The owner is so very helpful and accommodating. Comfortable beds, lovely spaces to hang out for a larger group. We are a group of 6 women ages 47 to 54, and it was such a lovely place to hang out for a long weekend. The house is walkable to shopping, restaurants, and the lake path. We would definitely return!

Amazing house!

The property is beautiful and Lisa was very communicative and helpful. The house had everything we needed for a weekend away (dishes, towels, etc) and is within walking distance of the lake (about 15-20 min). We had 2 toddlers with us and in addition to the house being great for adults it was also great for children.

Best VRBO spot!

We just stayed this past weekend for a girls trip and it was the most perfect rental! The house is extremely clean, well equipped, and beautifully decorated! We happed to be there during a snow storm and sent people to clear the snow from the sidewalks as well as all of our cars! Lisa was beyond gracious and supplied us with all the information needed as well as suggestions for weekend activities. We could not have asked for a better place to stay! 10/10 recommend!

Delightful house with a delightful host!

We stayed here for a bachelorette weekend in Lake Geneva and had the best experience from start to finish. The house itself was gorgeous, we loved the multiple sitting areas so that people could get some alone time or sit with the group as they chose. The rooms were all very comfortable and the decor was just the cherry on top. What really made the stay though was the care and attention provided by Lisa. She was very communicative in the lead-up to our stay and was super accommodating, even giving us a late checkout (which we needed after a bachelorette weekend). From start to finish, she made the trip a relaxing and fun experience. I would highly recommend staying here for a wonderful trip with family or friends!

Perfect getaway at a gorgeous house!

The house was perfect. From the time we booked to when we shut the door to leave we couldn’t believe how perfect the experience was. Lisa was so accommodating and thoughtful with every last detail. The house is kept in pristine shape and has everything you need. Completely redone, the house has the beautiful architecture of an older house but perfectly updated. We already have talked about coming back and staying here again. It was a quick walk to downtown and the beach but far enough away from the water since we have small children. This property made our first experience in Lake Geneva perfect!

I rented this property for my daughter's wedding,specifically for the bridesmaids to get ready before and then for my family to stay at the night of the wedding. My daughter and I had a wonderful, first night, the bridesmaids were all able to get ready together in the bright, open floor plan of the main floor. I would highly recommend this property!The owners were also very responsive and had all information easliy accessible.

This house was amazing, 5 ! Location was perfect, we walked to dinner and drinks with plenty of options. Walked to the beach and there was a lovely art fair going on. Sat outside in the gazebo area and played yard games. Fell in love with Lake Geneva which started & ended with our resting place! We went to Alpine Valley (which was dynamite as well) and this was a perfect place to stay.

We liked the convenience to downtown area, walking 10-15 minutes. Nice living space and upstairs bedrooms that were comfortable and well-appointed. The kitchen was large with a with a dining table that seated 8 and counter top w barstools. A few kitchen amenities need to be re-stocked and the list was texted to the property manager. Check-in was straightforward. We enjoyed our stay--thank you.

About the host

Hosted by Amy at the Lighthouse

Host profile image
Hi! We’re a couple from the Midwest (that’s me!) and Maryland (that’s David!) who share a love for cozy spaces, good company, and creating places people can relax and reconnect.

Why they chose this property

When David first saw this house, it reminded him of a lighthouse—something strong, welcoming, and full of character. So, The Lighthouse was born. It was renovated with care, blending vintage charm and modern coastal style, to make it a retreat for family, friends, and weekend adventurers.

What makes this property unique

The Lighthouse is more than a place to stay—it’s a place to connect. Whether you’re sipping coffee in the sunroom, laughing around the firepit, or winding down in the cozy Beacon Room, we hope it becomes a part of your memories.

We know what it’s like to travel with family, plan girls’ weekends, or sneak away for a much-needed break. That’s why we’ve tried to think of everything—so you can just show up and enjoy.

Thank you for considering our home for your time in Lake Geneva. We’re honored to host you.
