Great Stay

Charming home, well stocked kitchen, comfortable beds, nice backyard, great location, delightful neighborhood & sweet neighbors. The front porch was a wonderful place to start & end the day. The pups loved walking the neighborhood. Didn’t have a use for the game room downstairs, but it would be a great place for a family.

Thanksgiving Family Getaway

Cottage on Clover was wonderful!!! The house is walking distance from downtown Lake Geneva and the lakefront. The home is clean, cozy and was very spacious for our group of 4 adults and a small dog! It has space really to accommodate 6-8 people, although you would only have 1 bathroom to share. We spent our Thanksgiving holiday at the cottage and enjoyed the various amenities that it had to offer. A basement full of various games (pool table, dart board, air hockey table), we didn't watch any movies in the basement but there is a space to relax and watch dvd. We brought some since we saw that noted in the home's description. We additionally shared meals around the 6 seater dining room table, Utilized the kitchen to prepare various meals and snacks for the weekend together. The cottage has two bedrooms that have very comfortable beds. As a family we utilize the numerous streaming apps (you must have your own accounts to login to) and were able to watch sports. This particular weekend was the big Michigan vs OSU game and the FIFA World Cup games! Additionally there is WIFI and I was able to get some work done that I needed! We brought our 2yr old dog with us and he also enjoyed some amenities ( doggie bowls, snacks, and the large back yard to run around in). The weather was 50's so a bit chilly for me, but was perfect for walking around since the sun was out the weekend that we stayed at the Cottage. Our host was very attentive and checked in on us via the VRBO app, gave some recommendations for things to do and answered general questions quickly. Top starts to Mariana and her Cottage on Clover

About the host

Hosted by MARIANA LEUCK

Host profile image
We have been visiting Lake Geneva for decades. When we were able, we bought our own slice of heaven and we're having so much fun sharing it with our guests!

Why they chose this property

It's quiet and away from the summer and weekend noise, but a 15 minute walk or so to town and Geneva Lake avoiding the costly parking fees while enjoying the beautiful historic nearby nearby neighborhoods. We love that we can get a glimpse of the lake after one turn from our humble cottage and that we have a yard to ourselves when we want to stay back at our our house.

What makes this property unique

The home comes with original arched headers, doors and hardware. The basement is perfect for hanging out - The home is fun for all generations to enjoy.
