Family gathering to celebrate birthday & Fathers Day

This lakehouse is perfect for a family gathering. Very spacious, beautiful outdoor space for playing games in the yard, sitting on the dock watching boats go by, fishing and barbecuing. I helped my 2-year old grandson catch his first fish off the dock and flew kites with my granddaughter on a breezy day. The view is relaxing and the entire community is quiet and peaceful. I highly recommend this as a destination for families!

Great Space!

10 of us stayed here for a long weekend and had a great time. The yard if a perfect size for games and the kitchen was very spacious. Only thing to note is that swimming is actually not allowed on the property per the house rules and signs posted on the property. Carey was extremely responsive and a pleasure to work with - thank you, Carey!

Great alternative to Lake Geneva

Spacious home with 5 bedrooms & 3 full baths. Lovely open concept main floor for gathering. Only disappointment was the lake itself. Full of green scum that we would never have swum in had it been warmer. Perhaps this is end of the year algae??
Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2024
Response from VrboOwner on 8 Oct 2024
Hi Debra, So glad you had a nice stay! Unfortunately the algae levels do tend to spike at the end of the season, and since this home is on an inlet it isn't the best spot for swimming. We recommend guests rent a boat and swim on the main lake. Hope to host you again sometime! Thank you, The GLV team

Lovely, clean home. Perfect for family getaway.

We stayed at Carey's home over the Christmas holiday. We are an extended family of 8 and house was perfect. The large, open, beautiful kitchen was perfect for holiday cooking and hanging out together. We played many games, did puzzles, and enjoyed the place very much. Beds were comfortable and clean as was the house itself. The master bedroom is huge with a great view of the water from upstairs. We enjoyed watching the hawks, muskrats and geese from the many windows across the front of the house. Thank you for a great stay!

We were pleased with the property overall. I felt there were a few improvements that could be made. The porch windows did not look like they had been cleaned all summer. The porch also needed to be swept and cobwebs removed. This did not deter the enjoyment of the property but it might have just made a more welcoming first impression. The amenities were very adequate for our entire 10 guests. The patio tables were very inviting and we loved the bench at the end of the pier! Very relaxing! We had a wonderful three days and hope to return again next year!

Weekend reunion

We had a group of friends stay at the house for the weekend. We had a great time cooking out on the grill and cooking breakfast in the kitchen. We used the pier for a ski boat and enjoyed skiing on the lake. One night we visited a bar that’s in walking distance from the house, and we had lunch at pier 290 in lake Geneva (~5-10 minute drive). We enjoyed sitting around the fire at the fire pit in the evenings. The house was well equipped to sleep our group of 8. The kitchen had pots, pans, plates, cups, etc for grilling and cooking. We had a great weekend, thank you!

11 days of Family Fun at the Lake

Carey's Lake House was the perfect place for a family gathering. From catching bullfrogs to watching movies while sitting around the fire, everyone made memories that will last a lifetime. There was something for everyone from age 2 weeks old to 80+ – most importantly time to get to know one another. We spent several days on the water: kayaking, canoeing, and we rented a pontoon for tubing and swimming (although pontoons could not pick-up on the inlet, we learned you can dock at Lakelawn Resort which is easily walking distance). Renting two lake houses next to each other was ideal – Carey's house (sleeps 11), Kevin's house next door (8), then we had additional family at a nearby hotel, but Carey's house served as home base for all 28 for 11 magical days!

Our family time at lake house

Our stay at this house on Lake Delevan was a wonderful weekend experience for our family of seven adults and four children! There were so many things to do such as fishing off the piers or watching birds flying around the lake. The house had plenty of things to do with games and books; also the kitchen was well stocked with utensils so we could cook for ourselves or bring in food from nearby.

Great for a weekend getaway with friends

A few friends and I wanted a quick weekend getaway for New Year's Eve and Carey's place was perfect. The home was exactly as described in the listing information and pictures, and Carey was very responsive to anything we needed. The kitchen was also very well appointed, which really came in handy for us making dinner together. Alpine Valley is only a short drive from the home, so a few of us were able to go ski, and those of us that didn't took the short drive into Lake Geneva to shop and eat. All in all it was a great place to stay for our group, and we wouldn't hesitate to come back!
