My husband and I chose this place for a quick little fall getaway for us and our daughter. Overall, we had a nice stay and there’s plenty to do being so close to Lake Geneva.
(Small) Cons:
Firepit was not as pictured at all. Not sure when it was last cleaned out, looks like it’s been a while. My husband had to clean the entire thing out and cut his hands on some broken glass buried in the ashes. Actual firepit is mostly rusted away underneath. Looks great now though, for whomever uses it nextJ Also, bring your own camper chairs. There are logs you can sit on but not very comfortable and some had huge splintered wood that made them unusable.
Deck was kind of scattered with patio pillows and summer floats, toys etc that were just left there from over the summer. Not a big deal but could have been cleaned up a little more. There’s an old paddleboat just sitting in the water that could probably be tossed or stored away somewhere else.
Can’t use the fireplace inside the house, which I was unaware of at the time we booked.
Lights in the bedrooms are super dim and batteries were missing from some of the remotes.
Shades could be added in the main room so you’re not getting hit in the face by the sun every evening.
Kitchen had the basic necessities. Couldn’t find a few small items we needed for cooking but may have been in one of the locked cabinets. We worked around it. No first aid kit that we could find.
Pros:
Great view! Would have been nice if the two trees that fell in the lake were removed, but still a great view to wake up to every morning. The inside of the house was ready for our arrival and super clean.
An easy 20 minute ride from Lake Geneva. We ended up taking the long route every day to drive through the scenic roads on the way. Highly recommended if you go during the fall season.
Area is quiet and pretty. There’s a small beachy area about 2 minutes walking distance that my little girl loved. We had to take her at least once a day.
Owner was very attentive and checked in with us throughout our stay.
Overall, we had a great time! We would definitely consider going again as a summer getaway next time.
