Had a great stay at the Delavan Haus. Check in was a breeze. Location was perfect for us. The house was great. Very clean and organized so thoughtfully for guests. Plenty of room to spread out. Loved the screened in porch for morning coffee and all the game choices and ping pong for winding down in the evening. Would definitely stay here again!

Great for a family trip!

We stayed here for a weekend with my family-- my parents, siblings, and their young kids (two under 3). This house was perfect for the mixed group, in a great location, and coordinating with the host & the property manager was very smooth. Thanks for a great stay!

Wonderful property with plenty of room to relax for your vacation.

We loved the cleanliness and amenities associated, especially the screened in porch and the double bunk beds. Plenty of room to host a number of people and not feel cramped at all. All appliances are up to date and make cooking meals a breeze. Everything you could need for a vacation right in the house, it was a great place to relax and catch up with friends.

The perfect place

Everything about this house made for the perfect weekend. So spacious and clean, it's easy to tell the owners take pride in their property - down to the smallest details. Communication with the host was wonderful. Excellent location, a walk away from the marina where we rented a boat and local restaurants. A quick drive to golf. Would 100% stay here again. Thank you!

Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Check-in, communication, location
The property is nice, location is not great if you are boating, the only access to pick up people is at In-Between Bar, always so busy, it makes it difficult. My biggest concern is the lack of privacy from the owner. I understand the multiple cameras on the exterior of the house for the owner to check on his property when not being used. I do NOT like that there is a camera on the enclosed porch that is pointed into the living room. I don’t even know how this is allowed by VRBO. Cameras are monitored by owners and he will reach out directly with his concerns. Zero privacy.We booked a 3 night stay with VRBO on July 4th weekend. The owner reached out and made us add a 4th night or cancel, because of the holiday weekend. We added the extra day reluctantly. Originally booked for 5 people, weeks before we arrived, we did disclose that we would be going up with 10 people, which the house could accommodate. The owner reached out and informed us that the addition people would be an additional cost due to more cleaning, understandable and we worked out an additional cost. He “discounted” the cost because my family was not going to come out on the extra day added. As plans change with larger groups. Everyone came out late on the extra day added in addition to 1 adult and child. This made the owner upset, as he was watching on cameras and accused us of theft. We were demanded an additional 2800 or authorities would be called. We paid the money and will never book the house again.

If you are looking for a guest who books for 5 people and shows up with 3 times that number, this is the perfect guest for you. When filling out the rental agreement he increased it to 10, which is the max capacity of my home, then showed up with between 14-16 guests. He checked in with my property manager with 3 people. Then within 15 minutes, 3 large vehicles showed up full of people, with the last vehicle showing up after one am. Quiet hours are after 10 on weekdays. When I reviewed the external cameras in the morning ang confronted the guest, he told me that “plans change”. He initially told me that there would only be three people staying at my home the first and last nights. Based on what actually happened, he seems to have issues with the truth. After he agreed to pay for the additional guests and paid, he retaliated and wrongfully reported that I have interior cameras in my home, which I do not. He was aware that I have exterior security cameras. Additionally, he and his 14 guests broke my sectional in 2 places and removed items from my home. If you are looking for a guest that believes he can ignore the capacities of your property and most other rules, you should rent to him. I will never rent to him again, as he was the worst guest that I have encountered in the 12 years that I have been renting on VRBO.

Great place to stay in winter or summer!

Came in the winter for skiing as the house is in between Lake Geneva and Alpine Valley. Sure it’s a great place to stay in the summer being SO close to the lake too. It was a nice, well laid out house. Easy to cook and use the kitchen, everything was there that ya needed. Great appliances too. All the bathrooms were really nice and water pressure were great! The kids loved the basement, ping pong table and all the board games! TVs had all the streaming services you needed. Beds were comfortable, sheets were super soft. The owner, Jay, and his management company were all accommodating! Knocked one star off for cleanliness due to some dog hair (owners dog) that we noticed and allergies flared up. I told Jay to amp up his cleaning services and he was sure to do so.

Quiet, peaceful stay!

This house was perfect for 5 adults and 1 toddler. Two of us shared one room and the other three adults had their own spaces. The basement is where the bunkbeds are and they share the space with a second large family room which is on the other side, where the ping pong table is. The basement is extra cool and my sister in law LOVED it! I would say one of the best things about this place are the separate spaces and the large common areas: there's plenty of room to cook and eat together but if you need alone time there are plenty of places to go. There are also lots of board games to play and DVDs to watch on down days. The front porch was a fun place to hang out and nature watch-- my mom saw deer and a fox! The lake is a block away though it is on someone's property so you do need to drive to get to water. That being said, the place is walking distance from a wine bar/ ice cream shop and a little bar/restaurant that has live music and open mike nights. The listing doesn't cover all the amenities the house actually has- there is a hair dryer, a filtered water faucet by every sink, and toiletries available if you forget your own (in a wicker drawer in the master bedroom). There's enough room in the driveway for 3 cars, which also worked out well for us. The showers are luxurious and so was the bed in the master bedroom:) You will love your stay here!

Better than expected

Our party had a wonderful time. Hassle free stay. Was able to communicate with Heather easily and always received a response within minutes. The pictures don’t do the house justice. It’s beautiful and very well maintained. They provided a fully furnished kitchen. In our past experiences some houses we’ve rented don’t even provide one pan let alone an entire kitchen full of cookware. Would definitely recommend this property to anyone looking for a stay. Only about a 15 minute drive to Lake Geneva and clean beaches. Mainstream shopping located within minutes of the house.

Well appointed vacation home.

Located on the north shore of Lake Delavan this house is great for a weekend with family. The screened in porch was a highlight. As was, the large finished basement with bunk beds, comfortable sitting/TV area and ping pong table. The only draw back was the lack of access to the nearby lake. Even if just a pier was available to sit on and look at the lake. Boat rentals were available with docking space at the In-between bar. The nearby candy/ice cream/pizza bar was a hit with the grandkids.

Wonderful stay for a family vacation with kids!

We very recently came back from our 7th annual family vacation in the Lake Geneva area which includes the adult ladies in our family and our 5 kids. We typically stay near Lake Como or Geneva Lake, but decided to stay in Delavan this time. This was by far the best rental we've had yet over the past 7 years. It was clean, very well maintained and stocked and we had plenty of space for us to spread out and not be on top of each other (which was especially wonderful with different sleep schedules!) Heather was great to work with... she was always very quick to respond to any of my emails with questions before our stay. We especially loved the screen in porch! I would not hesitate to rent this property again in the future.

Birthday weekend getaway

The house was for the most part very nice. Bedrooms were spacious and well equipped. An iron and ironing board would be nice, but I brought one anticipating it may not be provided. The kitchen was excellent snd well stocked. TV was limited channels as most channels were blocked. The worst part, and the reason I give only three stars is the living room couches and chairs were absolutely covered in some kind if oet hair. I was very confused by this as the listing states no pets. The owners must have a pet and cleaning service never bothered to vacuum or clean the upholstery. On closer inspection, hair was found at the baseboards and on floor as well. One of our party is strongly allergic to pet hair and luckily avoided sitting in this area. We had to cover couches and chairs with blankets to sit in this area. The othher issue were the millions if bugs st the doors and patio. Hopefully, there is some type of spraying that occurs when weather is warmer to get rid of these. The owner was very attentive and helpful. I would recommend use if these items were addressed.

Thank you so much for your review and helpful comments. The two things that you are most concerned about was the pet hair and the bugs. First of all, yes the owner does have a dog, and the upholstery should have been vacuumed after his departure. We apologize for neglecting that. The bugs, there's really nothing to do about it. In this area of the country it's like a plague at certain times of the year. I sincerely apologize for the issues you experienced and hope that you come back and stay with us again sometime Gods Blessings!

Great annual girls weekend at this awesome house!

My friends and I had the most wonderful weekend at the Delavan house. First and foremost, Heather was so kind and accommodating. She was available via text throughout the weekend and was quick to respond to anything we needed. The house is beautiful! It was clean, had everything we could have needed (linens, towels, kitchen supplies, etc.), and had more than enough room for 6 adults. We spent time hanging out in both the upstairs and downstairs family rooms as well as the kitchen. The open layout upstairs was perfect for our group! It was a short 15 minute drive from Fontana Beach (where we spent 2 days) and we spent time exploring local restaurants in Delavan and Lake Geneva. We try to take a girls trip to Wisconsin every summer, and this is by far the best house we've stayed in. We can't wait to plan another trip for next summer! :)

Fun Spot for a Weekend

The house was perfect for our gathering. The weather wasn't great, so we made good use of the ping pong table, porch, and good-sized kitchen table (for board games). Heather was very easy to work with, responded quickly to any questions we had, and even accommodated us with an early check-in time. We would definitely recommend!
