Bring your swimming trunks and water shoes (Lake Como is a shallow soft bottom lake). The lake is only 10 feet at its deepest spot so the lake remains calm making it perfect for lounging, water skiing and tubing.

Great accommodations. Good communication with host. Had hoped to get in early but weren't contacted when house was ready, but worked out fine. Good recommendations for restaurants. One we really enjoyed was Cafe Calamari. We were 8 senior women golfers. Great golf options nearby. Awesome lake access and view; we didn't have time to take advantage of the lake.

The house was roomy, clean and updated. (And very beautiful, which was a bonus). The lake toys were awesome and we used a few of them. The house was amply stocked with pots, pans, dishes, silverware, everything. The only suggestion is more towels to be available. My 2 adult children, with their spouses and teenage children all fit comfortably. The huge couch in the living room and super long dining table were perfect. The view was magnificent from the moment you walked into the home, with windows all along the back of the house. We would all definitely come back!

Glad you had a good time. I see you mentioned the areas water issue, which didn't impact the house, but was a community issue. Nothing one owner could control.

Family fun!

Our extended family, ages 10 months old to sixty-five years old, enjoyed a week long stay at this beautiful lakefront home. The sunsets were amazing! We enjoyed kayaking, fishing and playing in the lake. This was our second stay at this home and we hope to return again to make more memories!

This home was perfect for a family reunion. The main floor bedrooms with adjoining bathroom accomodated a handicapped brother. The spacious kitchen contained everything we needed to prepare meals. The fireplace was cozy.We ate together, played board games, and enjoyed sharing stories about growing up together. The kids enjoyed a few games of pool.
FaceTime discussion with siblings who couldn't travel.
Sugar cookies and conversation in the spacious kitchen.
Siblings completing a jigsaw puzzle and having morning coffee while in their cozy pajamas.

About the host

Hosted by Daniel W Bishop

Host profile image
We built this home in 2007 to get away from the West Side of Chicago. Spending time in Wisconsin required passing the "cheddar curtain" (the border between Illinois and Wisconsin) and just slowing down to enjoy the pleasantness of the people, clean air, and wonderful wildlife.
