Weekend Getaway
My husband and I spent the weekend in this amazing home. We had some family visit on Sunday, and everyone thoroughly enjoyed. The home is in a beautiful setting on the lake, and was well-equipped with everything we needed. Our host Bill was attentive and covered everything before we arrived. We highly recommend this rental and would definitely return.

Great set up for multi family units to spread out but upgraded bed/bedding needed
Great set up with separate sleeping areas for us and our adult kids with young children. View was great, even during the winter season. At the current pricing, I would suggest an upgrade to all the mattresses and bedding. We struggled to keep warm since all the beds had just a sheet and an older light weight comforter. We would stay again if beds/bedding were updated.

Perfect Place for Wedding Prep !
Property was as nice as advertised. We used it as a base for an October wedding at the Lighthouse Restaurant, which is located very close to this property. The place was large enough for everyone, including the bridal party, to get ready. Beautiful location even in the fall. Owner was responsive and great to work with.

About the host

Hosted by Bill Port

Host profile image
Hello, my name is Bill Port. I am a real estate Broker with Realty Executives Premier. Reach out with any questions you may have.
I previously owned a construction business and have had the opportunity to renovate the homes of some of Chicagoland's most prestigious residents. While I now work as a full time real estate broker, I still enjoy building and working with my hands. This home was a true joy to transform into what it is today. This is my family's home and we will gladly let you use it as yours also.

Why they chose this property

When my family purchased this home it was in need of great repair. The home was basically a series of multiple additions; the oldest of which originated in the 1800's. Today, there is very little that visibly remains of the original structures. We have renovated this home inside and out in Adirondack Style, with log siding to complete it's rustic feel. The look is rustic, but the feeling is pure comfort. While in the home you will notice the craftsmanship in nearly every room, as well as in the exterior decor. We try to constantly add to the artistic charm of the home. Our most recent addition is a hand crafted Totem Pole carving that guards the front door. If you are looking for a peaceful home to relax with your friends and family, you should consider staying here. We enjoy having guests enjoy the beauty of the lake. If you would like help determining if this is the right place for your get-away. -Bill
