About this property

Laid Back Lakefront Cottage--Family Fun on Powers Lake

This two-story chalet style cottage sits right on the water of a small bay on Powers Lake, Wisconsin. Powers Lake is spring fed and very clean.
Our lakefront is great for swimming with a long shallow entry with a pebbly bottom. Lake views are on two sides of the property.
Spectacular sunset views as well as star-filled night skies are featured from the front cedar deck which overlooks the lake. Our family has enjoyed many wonderful days in this pleasant home, which is situated on a quiet cul-de-sac.
Families will be very comfortable with the open connected space of the great room, dining area, and kitchen. There is plenty more space to relax on the deck, in the screened porch, and rec room. A large grassy lawn offers a spot for outside games.

Main Living Space includes (2nd floor):
• Great Room with 180-degree view of the lake through the floor-to-ceiling windows along entire lakeside of the room.
• Dining Area with picture window and view of the lake
• Kitchen with lake view and open to dining area and great room
• Wide Cedar Deck across the front lakeside of the house
• 4 Bedrooms (queen, queen, queen and twin, 2 doubles) with blackout curtains
• Full Bath
Main living area is up a full flight of stairs from the ground level or a walkway up a hill, around the house and then up 5 steps.

Ground level/1st floor…which opens out to the lake:
• Large Rec Room with Ping Pong table
• Futon couch and futon chair
• Screened-in Porch under the upstairs deck
• ½ Bathroom plus 2 Showers with changing rooms
• Laundry Room
• Garage
Ground Level is open to the lakeside of the house on 1 side, open to the driveway on 1 side and underground on 2 sides.

Fishing on Powers Lake is great — northern pike, bass, and pan fish! Many of the best catches have been made right off our pier.

Lake Geneva Golf Weekend
This Powers Lake property was the perfect place for our golf weekend. Centrally located between a bunch of great courses and close to Lake Geneva for nightlife. We loved the house and the lakefront property. Powers Lake was awesome as it was not as crowded as other lakes in the area. The Rock Bar was a plus for food and drinks close by. Would definitely stay again

Beautiful Powers Lake lake front rental home
We had a wonderful stay at the beautiful Laid Back Lake front cottage! What a beautiful view of Powers Lake! Our family enjoyed the large space of the house, stocked kitchen, fire pit, the deck and the nice lawn and dock. There were many chairs and lake floating devices. We all loved the large windows overlooking the sunset. Suzy (the owner) was very responsive and answered all of our questions. We will be back to rent this lovely home!

Powers Lake gem
Found this property for a last minute get away to Powers Lake. Great location. We all have had a great time including my Portuguese Water Dog, Kinzie. Water was perfect and there was plenty of room for us. Looking to rent there again next year.

Worthy of a second visit
This was our second time visiting the Lakehouse and it didn’t disappoint! Ample room, scenic views and great place to bring kids. We didn’t have access to a working dishwasher until the last day, but the property manager and owner were very up front about it before we arrived. We highly recommend coming here if you have a larger group.

Gorgeous Property, Fantastic Host
We rented this lakefront cottage for MDW 2023, and it exceeded all our expectations. We were a group of adults with our dog, and found that the house and lakefront property were exceptional. Very spacious, clean, and with lots of interesting history. I had been communicating with Susie in the weeks leading up to our trip, and she was very responsive and helpful in recommending other activities during our stay. When we head back to Powers Lake, I will certainly try to stay here again.

Why they chose this property

We love this comfortable cottage located on property with one of the best views of Powers Lake. Sunsets are remarkable and can be seen from the outside deck, great room, dining area, kitchen, and screened-in porch. Or sit on the bench at the end of the pier for a peaceful, sunset moment. That is when and where our son proposed to his wife!

What makes this property unique

In many lakes, the lake bottom is mucky and thus unpleasant to walk in. The lake bottom at our property is pebbly and firm to the end of the pier (about 80-feet). This makes for a really nice swimming area for young children.
