Perfect location, shops nearby, old home with charm.... first floor bathroom was a Jack and Jill bathroom for two bedrooms, so not easily accessible from the third bedroom or other common areas. Bathrooms have been renovated and were very nice. Two kitchens, downstairs equipped with everything you need. Bjorn was a very responsive host. Overall a great place for a girls weekend!!

Excellent stay

Bjorn was very easy to communicate with and always had prompt responses. The house was plenty of room to accommodate a group of 10 girls though bathroom and mirror space was somewhat limited when trying to get ready all at the same time. Overall a great stay. Would recommend!

Lake Geneva historic home

The house was very charming, clean and plenty of room for our multigenerational family. We enjoyed that we could walk to town, the lake and restaurants and using the fire pit for smores. It was a lovely stay and we would come again.

There are so many reasons to celebrate in lake Geneva but bachelorette parties have got to be one of the biggest reasons! We had my best friends Bach party and this house was absolutely perfect for it, with 2 refrigerators for food and drinks so much space and an adorable back yard fire place, we couldn’t have asked for more! Thank you so much for hosting us in your beautiful home!

Perfect location! This house is absolutely adorable and the hosts did a great job of communicating prior to check in and throughout our stay to make sure we had everything we needed.

Fantastic home and location!!

Thank you tremendously for the opportunity to rent this home. The location is great as it is within just a few blocks if the beach. Plenty of room for everyone, and the foosball table was an important perk for us all. We also enjoyed the backyard with grilling, the table with firepit and the swings.
