Immaculate home and beautiful view

The pictures in the listing do not do this home justice. The home is much bigger than we thought and is immaculate. You can tell how well loved and cared for this home was. It is definitely dated but that adds to the charm of it. The view of the lake is beautiful and we spent time fishing and swimming off the dock. We will be back!

Great place to stay!

Our family has done an annual vacation on Green Lake every year for most of the last thirty years. This year we had the good fortune to rent the Bella Vista property on Blackbird Point which is our favorite location on the lake We found the cabin to be everything we look for when we rent a property for the week. The accommodations were ample for our needs and in great condition. With three watercraft, we found more than enough parking for vehicles and trailers. Access to the water could be improved with the addition of a ladder to assist the elderly amongst us in getting into and out of the water, but we managed. We will definitely consider the property for next years vacation!

Old School Home w/ Cozy Feel

This property is in a very nice quite area of Green Lake. Home is as pictured which is quaint but everything is definitely vintage from the coffee pot to the hair dryer and the bedding on the beds. Two things to note - the second floor is not really air conditioned and relies on the HVAC fan from the first floor. If you are a hot sleeper it can get warm up there. Second, if you are going to attempt to dock your boat even if just for a few minutes to use the bathroom the deck is soooo short and the owner's boat occupies most of the dock so its impossible to pull up to the dock even to load or unload people/supplies.
