Lake Accessible Apartment
Very clear, beautiful location on the lake, background and restaurant was awesome. Jake was very friendly and just a nice guy!!!

Villa @ Chula Vista Resort w/FREE Waterpark Passes
Perfect for our little family of 4 that included a baby and toddler! Having a little kitchen was so helpful. We enjoyed being across the road in a more secluded area not within the hotel too! Eric sent multiple messages with all the info we needed! Would definitely stay again!

The Riverview Retreat, unique spacious upper.
Tyler’s place is a great place to stay. You won’t be disappointed! It is close to downtown. Very clean and all the pans you need for cooking if you decide to stay in and cook. Tyler’s place is comfortable. Highly recommend!

Riverview Big Family Condo 3 bedroom/3 bath for 16
Syed was very helpful and responsive the duration of booking the condo and the stay. The place was just beautiful with a nice scenic view from both balconies. Attractions, entertainment, and restaurants (outside of the property) were minutes away, along with gas stations and convenience stores such as Dollar General and even Walgreens. The kids had an amazing time. You don’t have to bring any cookware, just food and seasonings. Check-in was extremely easy. Put the code in and you’re good to go. The condo was a slightly modernized cabin. I personally loved the 14’ ceilings and the fact that every room had a separate bathroom. The kids loved the in-room jacuzzi. The beds were comfortable and the shower water was hot! Shower gel, shampoo, conditioner, and air fresheners were in all bathrooms. We plan on visiting again in the soon to take advantage of Noah’s Ark discounted tickets!

The Albert Inn - Located near Riverside Park
We had the best time at the Albert Inn! It was such a clean and cozy space. Ericka has done such a great job of providing everything to make it a highly functional home away from home.

Stylish Historic Upper+King Bed/ Walk to Downtown
The Blue Belle was perfect for our family of four adults during a wedding we attended in the area. There are two lakes and a cool upscale town area that's super walkable from the house. You'll find many restaurants, coffee shops and huge homes there plus a big friendly farmer's market Saturday mornings. Jason and Melissa were so easy to communicate and even checked in with us on the second day to make sure we had all we needed. I would stay here again!

Paradise by a serene river, relax, play, explore
Great location. Looks just like the pictures. Very clean. Joel was a friendly host.

Spacious 2 bedroom Apartment on river
The host has a beautiful home. My kids loved the space. It was clean and had everything you might forget available if needed. I love that there were drawers with little things like panty liners or an extra tooth brush. The cabinets were full of paper products and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Even the neighbors were friendly and the kwik trip across the street really came in handy.

'The Lake Escape' Lakefront House Near Ski Hills
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I recently had the pleasure of staying at a wonderful home, and I must say, it was amazing! The Lakeview was absolutely stunning, providing a breathtaking backdrop for a perfect getaway. Kelli went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed for the weekend. There were plenty of towels and amenities available, which made our stay even more comfortable. I truly appreciated all the thoughtful touches and attention to detail. Thank you for an unforgettable experience! I can't wait to return!

Lake Geneva cottage with private beach access
She was a great host. Was very responsive and allowed my group and I to have an early check in- she got back to us really quick and we were impressed with response time. Great location and close to the lake, only a few steps away!

Country lakeside home near the city and shops
We thoroughly enjoyed our 5-night stay at Diane's place. She has clearly put a lot of thought and effort into creating a terrific guest experience. The house was very nicely laid out, with a well-equipped kitchen, ample seating, plenty of linens, and comfortable beds. It was also very private, located at the end of a cul de sac. We very much enjoyed the views of the lake, to include from the deck and outdoor seating. Very convenient to Verona (and Epic), with good restaurants and other services located within a short drive. Very much recommended!

Meracle Acres
We had a wonderful time at Meracle Acres. The home and property is a fantastic cabin getaway. Plenty of space and feels private and secluded. Trails, fire pit, grill, hot tub, bar/gaming area. Would definitely recommend and stay again.

Fun Lake Kosh Private Pier, Decks, Fire Pit, Grill
Wonderful home for a big family or group! Lots to do (if you’re not already busy!). The home has everything you need to rest, relax, and make killer meals. Madison is a quick 30 minute drive away as well. Highly recommend.

The Lily Pad-Peaceful Lakeview AFrame min to Dells
We had a great two day stay at Sondra’s place, very nice finishes and enjoyed the hot tub and being in such a nice remote spot! Close enough to the dells and other things in the area to make it a great location for our stay!

The Lake House on beautiful Mason Lake
This house is completely renovated and is set on Lake Mason (just 15-20 minutes from the Dells). The quality of the renovations (including a new pier on the lake) coupled with the cleanliness of the property, make it a gem of a find. The owner, Mike, is easy to communicate with. I highly recommend this property and will definitely be back.

Oasis on 188 - Brand new remodel! Lake Life!
We absolutely LOVED staying at this beautiful property. It was perfect for our family reunion. The kitchen/dining area is spacious, clean, and has everything you need for meal prep. The living room was large and comfortable. The patio facing the lake is a great addition to the home, we could see the sunsets on cooler evenings. The backyard has a fantastic wood burning fireplace and charcoal grill in addition to a wonderful dock on the water. The bedrooms were just right for the adults that stayed. We had a 15 month-old grandson who acclimated beautifully and enjoyed himself as well. There was a portable crib on site, but we brought our own Pack n Play. The only suggestion I have would be to add a high-chair or booster chair. The mattresses are so comfortable. There were lots of towels and beach towels available. The laundry room is huge with modern appliances. Temperature regulation in the home, whether cool or warm, was easy to achieve. Would definitely stay here again.
Waterfront condo accommodation

Lakefront Condo - Private Beach | Boat Slip| Pool
Amazing place .highly recommend!!

Penthouse, Lakefront, Pontoon Ride, No Resort Fees
getaway weekend at Jody and Jana's was just what we needed. a cozy couch and comfy bed, ample space for the two of us and that view of the lake was unbeatable! loved the little snacks they left us and the home was perfectly clean and comfortable.

1BR UpperDells Riverfront: Jacuzzi, Pool & Hot Tub
We just stayed 2 nights but it was very comfortable and a great location. Right on the water, just north of downtown dells. Good walking path to downtown. Easy instructions to get in and a very clean condo. Just note, to get in, you need to walk all the way around on the right to the water side of the building, to access the door.

*Pool/Hot Tub | 2 BR Condo | Waterfront | Downtown
Really nice apartment in a beautiful location right on the river. So peaceful in the morning. Very easy to find and get into. Exactly as described. Coffee pot with coffee bags, sugar and creamer including microwave popcorn and chocolate biscuits. Nice welcome pack. Lots of cutlery crockery and pans but didn’t see any oil or condiments. If you are going to cook you’d need to bring some. Had problems with the tv instructions but after contacting Ashley somebody came to the condo within 15 mins and sorted out for us. May need to update instructions or check settings haven’t been touched to save inconvenience. Just to note the smaller bedroom has the boiler in it which is very noisy. We had ear plugs so was ok for us but if you come in the cold weather and need heating you would need to bear in mind. Overall a lovely stay in a quiet area of town within a short walk to all amenities. Would recommend.

2BR Serene Riverfront • Spacious • Pool & Hot Tub
Great host and a great space. Reminded me of the early days of Airbnb when people went out of their way to make you feel welcomed and have a good time. Highly recommend!

Magnificent waterfront views & cozy fireplace
Lori’s place was amazing! The location was perfect, peaceful, yet centrally located near tons of things to do. Whether you want to explore or just head back to relax, it’s the ideal spot. I highly recommend taking your coffee out onto the balcony to enjoy the beautiful view, it was one of my favorite parts of the stay. Lori was incredibly responsive and checked in often to make sure I had everything I needed. I would 100% stay here again in a heartbeat!

Beautiful Condo at Chula Vista!
Great, comfortable place to stay for my birthday.

LakeView-SummerPool-FamilyFriendly-CloseToTown
We had an incredible stay at this beautiful Lake Geneva Airbnb! The home felt so welcoming from the moment we walked in. The location couldn’t have been better. Just minutes from the lake and downtown, we were able to enjoy charming local shops, great restaurants, and stunning lakeside views without needing to drive far. It was the perfect blend of peaceful retreat and convenient access to everything Lake Geneva has to offer. Our host was outstanding—friendly, responsive, and truly committed to making our stay comfortable. They provided excellent local recommendations and made sure we had everything we needed. Whether you're looking for a romantic weekend, a family getaway, or just some time to relax by the water, this place is a gem. Wehighly recommend it to anyone visiting Lake Geneva!
