Weekend stay
Clean. Everything worked. Location in very quiet neighorhood equidistant from Lake Geneva, Delavan, and Fontana. Beach in Fontana and Williams Bay beach close although too cool this weekend to use other than walking trails. Host accessible and responsive.

Last Minute Spring Break Trip
As with any rental, you are never sure what you're going to get. We were delightfully surprised when we arrived as the house was above and beyond our expectations. This house had plenty of space for our party of 5 (and dog) with an extra bedroom to spare. The kitchen has been nicely upgraded, along with the spacious bathroom, and top of the line laundry washer/dryer. Everything was clean, comfortable, and accommodating. There were also some special touches, like a charcuterie assortment and a local dining gift certificate for us to enjoy, along with all necessary cleaning supplies (although I brought our own). On top of everything, the house was very pet friendly for our pooch. The location was great, only 5-6 miles from downtown Lake Geneva and the drive was a straight shot down 50 leading into Main St. We had a great time and would definitely book this location again! Communication with the property manager was also immediate and extremely helpful :)

Quick ski getaway with family
House is cute and cozy and clean. There were two twin beds in one bedroom with a trundle, a full size bed in another, and two queens in two separate rooms so it had plenty of beds for our adult kids and no one had to sleep on the floor or couch. The house has been updated in both the kitchen and bathroom and we’re done very nicely. (loved the kitchen countertops!) We also loved that the host allowed pets which allowed us to take our Maltipoo-poo with us. We brought our own crate with us, but the host has everything else you might need such as waste bags, paw towel, and pet dishes. The host even left a charcuterie tray of cheeses, meats, fruit, and nuts which was such a nice welcome after a long drive- we were starving when we arrived! The house was located within just 20 minutes or less of two ski resorts and even shorter to get to Lake Geneva which was still decorated for Christmas. It looked like a Christmas Hallmark town! We very much enjoyed our stay!

Convenient location
Family shopping trip to Lake Geneva. We were there to sleep. Unfortunately I was not receiving any emails from VRBO as they were all going to spam, so there was some miscommunication from the start. I didn’t realize that I needed to update the quantity of people that came since I remembered it said a max of 10, (we said 5 and it ended up to be 7) but Christina quickly let us know. She did end up splitting the difference half way. If you aren’t comfortable being watched, this is not for you. It was odd to get a phone call as I was carrying my bags in the house. Nice place, nice location.

Great House in a Williams Bay
We had a great stay at our house in Williams Bay. It had all the amenities we would look for in a house, and everyone was comfortable and cozy. The check in and check-out process was seamless, and we greatly enjoyed our stay. Only wish would have been for better weather to enjoy the outdoor fire pit.
