Great location and property.

The hosts were wonderful. check-in couldn''t have been smoother. The location worked perfectly for us. We had a wedding to attend on the other side of the lake and the boat shuttle was in Fontana. Going the other direction Lake Geneva City is just a short drive away. The house was well furnished , If the weather hadn't been so beautiful we would have spent more time there.

Great Little Getaway

From the first steps of making reservations, to checking and checking out, the process was smooth and with great communication. The house was clean, quaint and comfortable! It's just up the hill from downtown and the lake. We took a lovely walk down the lake path on a wonderful day. People in the area were so kind and friendly. The only complaint I have is that we didn't have more time there!

All the little things!

It was a lovely property! Everything was clean and the house was so comfortable. The owners didn't miss a detail. They offered so much more than listed. The house was stocked with things you'd never think of and wouldn't expect. I'm booking again when I come back to visit family!!
