I think you got a really great first “taste” of Lake Koskonong……..but there’s still so much more to explore…….. more bars and restaurants to go to next year. We’ll get you a pontoon boat that you can keep for your entire stay and you can have it at my pier overnight……… you can go up and down the north and south branch of the rock river about 7 miles each way…….Fun!…… almost all the lakefront bars and restaurants have outdoor stages and host live free entertainment, Thursday through Sunday during the summer months…… more fun!

First our host was very responsive and communicated relevant information in a timely manner. We thoroughly enjoyed holding our annual sibling reunion at this VRBO home. We enjoyed: the beautiful room decor with a variety of themes; morning coffee in the sunroom as we watched the sunrise; the firewood for bonfires in the evening; the large kitchen table for sharing meals and games; the hot tub for relaxing; the piano and ukulele for family sing alongs; and being able to charge our electric vehicle on site. All in all a terrific week for reconnecting with siblings.

What a wonderful place for our family gathering!! The view of the lake as soon as you walk through the front door was awesome! Lots of bedrooms! The kitchen is so well stocked and we didn’t have any shortage of utensils and pans while cooking! The solarium was so cool. You could sit comfortably (and temperature controlled), yet it felt like you were right on the lake! The older members of our group really loved this! The fire pit and hot tub were also a hit! Jim was wonderful to work with. He was very welcoming and prompt in his communication. Thank you Jim!

We stayed here for our daughter’s wedding and couldn’t have asked for a better place. The property is clean, cozy, and perfect for large families of all ages. The kitchen is fully stocked and made cooking easy, and the big yard with a fire pit was ideal for backyard fun and relaxing evenings.Best of all was the owner, Jimmy. He was an absolute pleasure to talk with and checked in often to make sure we had everything we needed. You can really tell how much pride he takes in caring for this home.Make sure to wake up early to take in the beautiful sunrise!We’ll definitely be back!

And I’m so happy and proud that my house provided a great backdrop to all of it.

Perfect Reunion Spot

We held our family reunion at the house. There was plenty of space for everyone and with the multiple sitting rooms there we were able to visit in small groups. The amenities were outstanding! The kitchen is truly a place a master chef would kill for. The sunroom has an amazing view of the lake. The musical instruments were a hit! The kids loved the playroom, we adults enjoyed the hot tub and exercise room, and everyone enjoyed the lake. Jim provided everything we needed, including toiletries that we had forgotten. He is an amazing host, so friendly and helpful. It was the best VRBO I've stayed at and I've stayed at places all over.

Thank you so so much for a great review! It makes my heart happy that your family had such a great time at the house and we can call the family reunion an outstanding success……… everyone traveled long distances and you just wanted it to work out perfect and I think it did ……your weather from looking, gloomy and rainy turned into quite the opposite….., just perfect! I appreciate the fact that you took time in your review to talk about the features of the house. I think it means much more to potential Guests to learn about them from past guests versus a list of amenities on a website. Thanks again for staying at the house. I hope our paths will cross again in the future.

About the host

Hosted by Jim Dovgin

Host profile image
I have been involved in Property Management, Hospitality Management and Real Estate all my life....if you stay at this gorgeous property you will not be disappointed.......I can not control the weather during your stay but I can and will try my hardest to make sure everything else is perfect! Please read my reviews - they will tell you a lot about the property and the type of host I am. I am proud of all my 5 star reviews! I do not believe in "Nickeling and Diming" people with a lot of fees.....for example the house is Professionally cleaned prior to each rental period. This is included in the fee you pay - not tacked on as a "Cleaning Fee". Why should Cleaning Be extra? You are paying for a clean house and from my reviews you can see you will be getting a very clean house. I appreciate the fact that my house has been the backdrop for wonderful family and friends occasions......from Birthdays to Anniversaries to Reunions.....some wonderful memories have been made at the house and that makes me so happy.

Why they chose this property

Definitely not your average rental......the past guests just love the house! Peaceful, quiet but yet plenty to do.......makes for a great vacation! Please read my reviews - I really take pride in providing this awesome property for all the families and friends to enjoy!

What makes this property unique

There is nothing like sitting in the Solarium with your favorite beverage and taking in the awesome lake views!....Wait...sitting on the pier in the early evening is so awesome too!
