HIGHPOINT

This large beautiful home is located in the desirable southwest shore of Lake Geneva in the quaint village community of Fontana. It offers 2 divisible living quarters and easily accommodates multiple families. Our home has been the perfect setting for family reunions, get-away vacations, and other special gatherings.

The open floor plan of the main floor offers the perfect environment for entertaining friends and family, including seating for 16 in the dining/kitchen area and vaulted ceilings in the adjacent living room with a new 52” flat screen TV, Bose sound system, and large seating area with views to the balcony overlooking beautiful Lake Geneva. A laundry room and full bathroom are also located on this level.

Step down to the second level where you’ll find 4 bedrooms (with a large walk-out deck) and 2 full bathrooms. Walk down to level one to enter the “apartment.” This walk-out lower level has a separate entrance and deck, with a full kitchen, 2 bedrooms, family room with large screen TV, a full bathroom, and its own laundry facilities. There is an additional bedroom between each of the three levels complete with sleeping arrangements (one single lofted bed in each) – a perfect escape for the kids.

Within a two block walk, there is access to nearby restaurants (Gordy’s and Chuck’s), the Abbey Resort & Spa, boat rental and ski school, lakeside swimming beach (6 beach passes included with rental), public park, public library, and access to the private pool at the Abbey Yacht Club (Harbor House).

                    We had a fantastic trip!! The weather cooperated perfectly. The kids were able to sled right next to the house and we went to Alpine skiing and then walked to Gordy's that night for dinner. The set up of the house was perfect for all of us, although several of us on the middle floor kept having to remind ourselves to go up instead of down. ;) Best of all, my parents were pleased. We convinced them to do this instead of presents this year and we were all thrilled with the end results. It felt like we were at home except with a lot more room to spread out. I think our favorite feature was the kitchen table which we were all able to sit around and play games. The kids liked the huge screen TV to play the wii as well. I couldn't have asked for anything to be more perfect for our Christmas (and my 40th!). Highly recommended to anyone looking to get away for a large family gathering!!

                    It was a great house! More than ample space, cozy, immaculate, warm and comfortable. My friends and I had an absolutely amazing time! The area is absolutely gorgeous in wintertime and ther is a nearby skiing resort 15 min away. It is a perfect house to rent if you want to unite a large group and yet give everyone their own personal space! The owners were very pleasant to deal with, cooperative and helpful. Highly recommend!

                    We had a group of 12 of us up there. It is a fantastic space with plenty of room. The property was clean and accurately reflected in the pictures. There are two great restuarants in walking distance........... however the best part of the trip was the huge family room and kitchen. We spent most of the weekend grilling and watching football. Fantastic time and space. Would recommend to anyone.

                    We had the opportunity to stay at High Point in the Summer and Winter months and had enjoyed both seasons up there. We love going to Fontana as there is so much to do...swimming at the beach or the yacht club; boating, ice fishing in the winter, sledding, skiing or a day at the spa. But the highlights of our trip is staying at High Point with our friends. The houes has the most perfect set up for large gatherings with children and adults. Plenty of clean bedrooms, bathrooms, washing machines and our favorite is the large kitchen and eating area. Our family has many good memories at High Point.

                    We recently stayed at High Point and had a couple's get-away. This large house is perfect for several families too. It was very clean and well maintained. The large open kitchen and sitting area was ideal for us.We enjoyed cooking and wine tasting in the evening. There are eight bedrooms on several levels of the home.Some people stayed up late and talked in the sitting room without disturbing others. The harbor is just a few blocks away, and The Abbey is also very close. We enjoyed seeing Fontana and the walking path around the lake. We had lots of fun too in the town of Lake Geneva-many unique shops. I definitely recommend High Point!!! It was a beautiful home!!!

                    Our family has had the pleasure of staying at Highpoint a number of times over the past few years. The open living area is perfect for dining and gathering with friends & family. The views from the deck are beautiful; another great place to dine and socialize. Having 8 separate bedrooms and plenty of bathrooms makes it easy to accommodate a number of families. Two sets of washer/dryer is also a nice bonus. Many nearby activities for the whole family; neighborhood park, public beach, restaurants, library, marina, etc. Winter fun too; local indoor water parks, skiing, etc. The house and grounds have always been clean and well maintained. My husband especially likes the new flat screen TV. This family owned home is the perfect get away for a few nights or an entire week of fun & relaxing. As I think about the good times we’ve had there I look forward to visiting again soon!

                    What a wonderful experience! Our extended family (18 people @ 7months to 67 yrs old) recently spent 5 days at Highpoint and were more than satisfied with the cleanliness, layout, amenities, and the close proximity to the lake, harbour, great restaurants, and walking trails. Also enjoyed shopping and sightseeing in nearby Geneva. Highpoint actually exceeded our expectations. My wife and I were particularly pleased and surprised that, even though there were 18 of us, the layout of the house comfortably allowed all of us to be together or to have privacy and quiet time whenever we wished. We would definitely return and would highly recommend Highpoint to family and friends.

                    I would definitely recommend this property for a family get away. We took our family and grandchildren. They loved it, swimming at the beach and the pool. The house is beautiful and well maintained. I loved sitting on the top deck and looking out over Lake Geneva. Fontana is a beautiful town with lots to do for the whole family. Went on sight seeing walks around the Lake and was amazed at the old homes with so much history, We also liked driving over to Geneva to shop at all the nice shops. Our grandchildren went to the movies and the loved going play miniature golf. I would recommend Highpoint to all of my friends and family, and I have. I hope to make this a family tradition and go every year.

                  Year Purchased: 2004

                  Why the Owner Chose Fontana:
                  We purchased this property with other members of our family to provide a space where we can spend time together to celebrate holidays, birthdays, special occasions, or just "get away." 2012 will begin our 9th year at Highpoint where we have enjoyed watching our kids (ages 6 - 22) experience memories of a lifetime. Grandma and Papa have enjoyed watching the little ones grow and all have welcomed the opportunity to spend quality time with family and friends.

                  The Unique Benefits at this House:
                  Family game night, talent shows, watching movies, making sand castles or burying Dad at Fontana Beach, swimming at the Abbey Yacht Club (Harbor House), getting pampered at the Abbey Resort & Spa (2 blocks away), taking walks along the beautiful Lake Geneva shoreline, going into town for ice cream, dinner or a movie, sitting on the deck to watch the 4th of July fireworks or just to watch the sun go down. Memories of good times with the ones you love.
