Cozy cottage with everything you need for a peaceful getaway. Super clean, with thoughtful touches like custom soap, wine, and all the essentials you need to cook during your stay. It’s close to great restaurants and wineries, has awesome views, and plenty of firewood for enjoying time outside. Highly recommend!

The cottage was so cozy and clean and even though it was a small area, it was perfect for my husband and I to get away and the wall of windows not only made the space feel bigger, but being able to look at the lake was incredible. Everything you need is there, all you have to bring is your food and drink. And decorated beautifully. And in a quiet neighborhood which I really appreciated. It’s perfect.

Beautiful property! The owners thought of everything that a renter may need and went above and beyond to deliver. The view was greatly enjoyed and the sunsets are incredible at this location. We were very happy at how centrally located this place was to Geneva on the Lake, many close wineries and walking trails. Looking forward to staying here again!

Great Spot!

We were very happy with this location! This spot along the lake was a perfect spot to view the total solar eclipse. Dan and Brenda were great to work with!

Quick, cozy get away

My husband and I took a last minute, overnight trip to celebrate our 16th wedding anniversary. The VRBO we choose was pretty and relaxing and so, so cozy. The cottage was clean and tastefully decorated. It had an electric fireplace, nice television and two great bathrooms. You won't regret your stay if you choose this location. Enjoy.

Perfection. Quiet lakefront cottage with gorgeous upscale amenities. Property is just as pictured. Made breakfast and enjoyed it on the large deck with full lake view. Built fires in the pit and sat on comfy gliders and watched the sun set. Watched sunrise as well! Napped in the hammock. Shower is amazing. Gorgeous flooring, lighting, and other touches throughout the cottage, with even the vent covers specially imported from Italy! Full, clean windows across the front of the cottage allow full view of lake from all but the bathrooms ;-)Many wineries and some decent restaurants close. Fun to walk through nearby Geneva-on-the-Lake reminiscing of childhood visits. Owners Dan and Brenda are on site and very responsive. They're pleasant to chat with but not the least intrusive; excellent hosts for our get away! Truly an outstanding property!

Even better than described.

We stayed at the Seaside Cottage for my daughter’s 13th birthday and were thrilled to find it even better than described. The lake side is in fact all sliding glass windows, providing an incredible view. The creative and thoughtful touches throughout the cottage made it truly memorable. The custom soap, spa shower, and incredible coffee table were some of our favorite things. There was firewood, fire starters, and a wagon to get firewood to the fire pit. The owners thought of everything. If you are looking for a special retreat and some time to stare at the water, this is it. I imagine this would be special even in cold weather because of the view from the cottage and the fireplace. The special touches impressed us all. We kept finding little things that made us smile. Even the autumn decorations in the front of the building were well done. A great experience!

Great place to stay. It was neat, clean, updated and conveniently located. You get the peace and quiet without the hustle and bustle of the strip. With 3 cottages to rent, you can have family and friends all with their own space.
