Guestbook comments from the manager
What a delight to throw open the windows front & back (in August) and let the breeze blow through. We especially enjoyed the lake view from the master bedroom….the local hospitality & the goodwill & trust that allowed us to keep the rental canoe here all night for two wonderful days on Lake LuLu. The local bike path is nice - drumlin glacial.

Perfect escape for families or writers
We spent a delightful week at this lovely lake house in early August. A phenomenal book collection and artwork from around Asia give this old Victorian a lot of character and charm. Yet, the place isn’t so fancy or fragile that you’re worried about having kids visit. The caretaker was responsive, super friendly and gave great recommendations. (Elegant Farmer, a short drive from here, has the best apple pie I’ve ever tasted!) My young kids caught panfish and bass off the pier every day. The water there is clear and shallow enough that you can see the fish eyeing the bait. We rented kayaks and explored the lake. On our next trip we hope to paddle all the way to Lake Lulu, a no-wake DNR lake that's supposed to be gorgeous. For those who prefer swimming in pools to lakes, there’s a wonderful newer YMCA nearby in Mukwonago that has a zero-depth-entry pool and a waterslide -- much nicer facilities than the Ys we have in the Chicago area. One of my favorite parts of the trip was seeing all the cranes. We hear their distinctive calls when they migrate overhead in the spring. Now we know where these magnificent birds spend their summers. On our last morning as we packed up, a crane stood on the pier, the brilliant red feathers on its head shining in the sun. A perfect end to a perfect trip! We’re already planning our next visit. p.s. This would make a great writer’s retreat in any season. There's strong wifi and three distinct spaces for writing. The library is surrounded on three sides with windows overlooking the woods. The screened porch overlooks the lake, and the dining room has long table with plenty of room to spread out your notes. You’re in a serene setting, surrounded by books, not far from coffee shops, and there's no TV to distract you.
Great quiet escape
My family stayed at this lake house for six weeks while we transitioned out of the area for a move. The house was clean and beautiful. We enjoyed this secluded home with an awesome lake view from master bedroom, living room and front deck. It was stocked with everything we needed for day-to-day use. Janet, the property manager, was very responsive and always super helpful with anything we needed. We miss the place and would most definitely go back!
Great place for families...
The caretaker was very kind and answered all of our questions and even helped when we got locked out. She also even brought over toys for our kids and my niece. This charming lake house has an excellent view. We stayed here with my sister and her family and we all had plenty of space. We even hosted a brunch for our extended family and had plenty of room for everyone. We are from AZ and when we come to visit family in WI again, we would definitely stay here again. AND the price is great!
