This was our second stay at this property and it was just as good as our first experience. Well-equipped and clean property with a beautiful view of the lake. Great location to Mars Supper Club and downtown Lake Geneva. Excellent communication with host. Highly recommend!
Absolutely stunning and beautiful home. Everything you need is in this house and it feels like a home away from home. Great communication with the property manager and you are close to anything that you need. It’s the perfect getaway.
Great. Everyone loved the property, the location. Having Mars Resort nearly next door was fun -- adding a great vibe. We all enjoyed beautiful Lake Como. This location is also super close to Geneva Lake.
We absolutely loved staying at this property! We did a big family reunion with several adults, kids, and babies, and the space was perfect for it. The kids loved the play room upstairs, and the adults loved that they had a place to go be loud :) It was also perfect for babies, as we could enjoy the backyard and lake while they slept safely inside. Amazing stay!
Comfortable arrangements for a group, convenient location, roomy gathering spaces. Prompt response from the hosts when the kitchen freezer drawer stuck. They even replaced the melted half gallon tub of ice cream!
This property was perfect for our group, including 6 children under the age of 9. There was plenty of open space and enough bedrooms to fit everyone more than comfortably. The kids spent a lot of time playing in the third floor playroom and downstairs with the shuffleboard table. The hosts, Ali and Wendy, responded very quickly to all of our dumb questions. lol. We’re planning on staying again next year. I don’t think there’s a better place!
Great for our four families/ three generations.Excellent response from property mgr to any queries. No real problems.Lake Como is a nice, relatively quiet lake.
Amazing location! On the water, walkable to brunch spot and a great local supper club/tiki bar! Great amenities, comfy beds beautiful outside hangout options.

Thanks Renee, so glad you enjoyed your stay with us at The Lake House!
We had a wonderful time. The listing was as advertised. We're already discussing a second visit. The views are breathtaking. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
Eight family members all over 60 spent 5 nights and enjoyed the roominess, dining and cooking facilities. Used only the 2nd and 3rd floors.Especially enjoyed sunsets from the deck and a couple of quick meals at Mars.
The house was beautiful as was the location. Ali was a pleasure to deal with and her instructions were superb. Her response to questions was timely. We all enjoyed staying there and would be happy to return in the future.
This lake house was the perfect setting for our siblings' holiday get-together. The beautiful lake views and spacious layout gave our group of nine plenty of room to relax, unwind, and truly enjoy time together.We loved watching local kids ice skate on the lake and spotting ice fishing nearby; it felt like something straight out of a winter postcard. We also drove into town to visit the museum for the Christmas tree parade and enjoyed strolling along Main Street for a little holiday shopping.The house was spotless, well-organized, and thoughtfully stocked with everything we needed in the kitchen, making it easy to settle in and feel right at home.It was a warm, memorable stay, and we can’t wait to come back again. P.S. Many thanks to the snowplow driver who cleared the driveway and the person who took the trash cans to the curb. We didn’t realize we’d have that extra help, and it was truly appreciated. Once again, this beautiful home has everything you need.
The home was exactly as depicted online. Spacious, clean and in a great location. Check-in / check-out process was extremely easy. We would certainly stay here again. Thank you for sharing your property with us.
Everything about this property was wonderful! The entire process was easy, and there was plenty of space for everyone. We are very happy with our stay.
The house is beautiful and in great shape and has many porches and verandas overlooking the lake. The owner was great and solved any issues we had (they were all minor) immediately.
We had an incredible week long stay with family. The house had plenty of room and space for people of all ages. The kids loved the beach and we took advantage of the kayaks the host had available, as well as the fire pit. Would definitely recommend!
