We loved our stay here. Williams Bay is a beautiful, smaller community on the Lake and was only 10 minutes from downtown Lake Geneva. The house was very nice and had all the things we desired. Would highly recommend others stay here!

Great house. Close location to Lake Geneva. Perfect for the 5 of us. Since it was cold, didn’t get to use the deck or backyard, but a very nice setup in the yard.

Cozy Summer Spot

We loved our stay! Everything was just as mentioned in the listing. We were a group of five adults and had plenty of space. The home was beautiful and had all of the key necessities. We loved the coziness and homeliness of the house. We sat out on the porch in the afternoons and grilled out one night. Would definitely stay here again.
