About this property

SuMMeR IS HeRe BrinG ur boat and tie to dock, Tavern, huge DECK, KIDS jungle gym

Our log cabin home is decorated with American Indian motif that feels like you are in the backwoods of America in a different time. 5 minutes to Kettle Moraine bike and hiking trail. Awesome fire pit with plenty of seating. Walk down to the dock and have a quick dip or throw in a line and catch a pike. Take out the paddle boat or the canoe. When your all done down by the lake and your tired we have a lift from the dock to the house (great for bringing up coolers and such) Enjoy a libation at the Hamms beer tavern that seats 10 with dart board and vintage billards table. Surround sound music through out the house. With cozy wood burning fireplace and a another fireplace on the first floor. Enjoy sitting on the 1000 sq ft deck that has a feel of a treehouse with the woods surrounding the house. All the conviences of home all you need is a toothbrush. When your done with your day enjoy a nice steam in our steam shower with the smells of eucalyptus. Play a game of basketball on our half court or perhaps a game of horse shoes. We have a whole closet of board games or toys for the little ones.

Great house!
This is a great location, remote and quiet, just what we wanted. Our family reunion was a big success! No WiFi was an issue for people who needed to make contact with work issues, and of course kids were not happy about it, but sometimes it’s nice to disconnect. However cell phone reception was limited so getting directions was challenging at times. All said and done we had a wonderful time and wouldn’t hesitate to go back and do it again.

We had a great time! :)
We had 4 families stay at this property for 5 days for New Year's, and we all loved it. It is located right next to a lake, neighborhood is very quiet, area is beautiful for walks. The house itself has plenty of space - both indoor an outdoor. Kids loved sleeping on the bunk-beds upstairs, and playing games downstairs. We will definitely try to come back in the future... :)

Plenty of room for a family of 18
We had a fantastic time. We had 10 adults and 8 kids. Plenty of room for the kids to play and adults to sit and talk. The kids were able to catch fish from the pier. It was nice to have a pool table. Close to Lake Geneva, hiking trails & golf courses. Only negative was the washing machine didn't work.

Loved the house, not the location
We stayed for 4 days here in June with 8 adults and 5 kids. Plenty of room for everyone to eat, sleep, and relax. The kids loved the main level bar area with the pool table, large TV's and assorted games and toys. There is a fantastic large cooler on this level, like you would find in liquor store. We were able to store all our water, beer, juice in this cooler. The laundry room is also on this level. The mid level has the kitchen, living room, dining area and 3 bedrooms. The kitchen has everything you need to cook your meals. Plenty of pots, pans, silverware, glassware. The 3rd level has a sitting area, a main area that has a three level bunk bed, which the kids loved and a separate bedroom. It was hot on our trip and the air conditioning is poor at this level. We had to use a box fan to blow cool air from the mid level up the stairs to make it tolerable. The air conditioning works great on the other levels. This house has a large deck with plenty of seating available. The grill was disgusting. It's a natural gas feed that looked like it hadn't been cleaned in months. It took at least an hour to burn off old grease and food bits. In the description of the premise, the owner listed a power lift down to the water and fire pit, as it is quite a precarious decent down or up via the wood stairs. It was one of the reasons I chose this location because my wife has bad knees, and my daughter and daughter in-law are pregnant. So low and behold the lift did not work, and the owner advised me it was currently not working after we got there. They did not make the trek down for obvious reasons. We were very disappointed with the lake location. This home is near the end of a narrow, shallow and weedy channel. There is no view of the main lake here. He mentions taking a dip in the lake, there is no way any of us were going swimming here. The water is clear but I eased off the pier and was up to my thighs in muck. Also the paddle boat was tipped over, full of mud, and the rudder was broken. The kids did catch some blue gill off the pier so that was a plus. The fire pit is nice with plenty of seating but at the time the mosquitoes were so bad we didn't have a fire. If the lake is not important to you and you are just looking for a large house to hold a large family comfortably, then you will like this house.

Great house
The house was very nice and spacious. The host was very accommodating and helpful. There are a lot of (and somewhat narrow) steps inside and to the dock. We had someone with a foot injury so it was difficult. The outside steps are very slippery when wet so we did not go down to the fire pit. It rained several days. The water by the dock has a lot of vegetation so the kids did not want to swim there but there is a nice little beach at Whitewater. The house is very kid friendly. We had children 0-9 and they enjoyed it. There was enough space for 3 families without feeling cramped. This was our first time renting like this and we were satisfied.

About the host

Hosted by Patrick Hulne

Host profile image
This is our home that we love to share with our friends however we never get here as much as we would like so we thought we would share it with other families when we are not here.

Why they chose this property

Its only an hour and a half from Chicago. We turned this home into a log cabin. Great wildlife during the week, they come out when the weekend warriors leave not to mention it is super quiet in the middle of the week.

What makes this property unique

A little bit off the beaten track, nice and quiet, you don't hear all the water crafts up and down the lake. Great fishing off the dock. This is where the fish come to get away. When your sitting on the deck it feels like your in a treehouse. At night, take a look up and see all the star constellations.
