We had an absolute blast at Connelly Farms. It’s a magical place — perfect for relaxing and reconnecting with a large family. The house was incredibly well-stocked, spotlessly clean, and had every amenity you could possibly think of. Truly, compliments to the homeowners for creating such a thoughtful and welcoming space. We had a wonderful stay and can’t thank you enough. We’ll definitely be back!

My group of 12 golfers had the pleasure of staying at Connolly Farms recently, and we highly recommend it!We’ve had an annual golf trip for the last 20 years and have stayed at destinations in Gull Lake, Swan Lake, and most recently the two in Lake Geneva - Geneva National and Grand Geneva. The rising costs and increasing lack of customer service, particularly at Geneva National, drove us to consider alternative options, which lead us here. To a man, this property far exceeded our expectations!The kitchen has every possible thing one could need and also has incredible view of the pond in the morning as the sun is rising. We utilized the outdoor grilling space which is equally impressive. The hot tub and sauna were used in the early morning, while the pool was most popular after golf. The common area with bar and TVs is incredible, whenever we weren’t outside sitting by the fire, fishing, playing bocce, or throwing bags.The entire property was extremely clean and communication with the host couldn’t have been easier or more pleasant. We highly recommend this property and will be returning in ‘27!

Great place for an all in one type stay. The pool, outdoor play area and pond were perfect for the cousins. They could play and have adults in sight. Adults loved being able to enjoy being together at the bar after the kids were settled for the night. The lighting in the sleeping area hallways were on automatic setting so there was no need to worry about finding your way through the hallway. Make sure the doors are shut before going to sleep! The fans allow you to turn the lights off but keep the fans on for air flow. The bunk room has no window so a night light is recommended.We wished the air hockey and fuseball tables were in the room by the pool table instead of in one of the bedrooms. We would have used them way more! We are a family that loves to cook so the double oven, huge oven and grill space was awesome. Lots of dishes so we didn't have to worry about running out. The second fridge by the pool area and the mini fridges in the bar area were perfect for keeping everything cold while without resorting to coolers. We are already talking about our next family gathering at this location next year.

Mixed reviews-beautiful, well maintained property and very family friendly however disappointing property management. Internet was sparadic, movie room was unavailable due to audio issues, no instructions were provided for pool,sauna or cleaning supplies and the coffeemaker broke on our second day. Property manager stated someone would be by to fix audio/internet (no one came), coffeemaker would arrive within three hours (never arrived).

Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed the home. An instruction sheet for the theater room is provided. We promptly sent someone to assist and from our communication understood the theater room issue had been resolved. A replacement coffee maker was delivered the same day but was mistakenly left by the guest house instead of the main house. We appreciate your feedback and will continue improving the guest experience.
