About this property

Big Family house close to everything!

This beautiful 1920's Federal style house has been completely remodeled for the sole purpose of ensuring the comfort of large gathering. We took down walls to create more open spaces and added bathrooms. Located on a corner lot, one block from Lake Geneva and 3-5 blocks from everything else you want to do-eating, shopping, boating, etc. this house is the perfect retreat for your family reunion or large group. Everything from the kitchenware to the luxury bedding is new and beautiful with a designers touch and great attention to detail. The private fenced backyard with screened 10x14 Gazebo has a comfy sitting area and lower lever deck for outdoor dining. A large weber grill is waiting for your favorite recipes. Inside the back door is a fully stocked chefs kitchen with triple ovens and antique workbench island. You will walk through a small butlers pantry to the formal dining room with 10ft. farmhouse table, seagrass chairs and monumental captains chairs. The living room has it all! Abundant seating, 65" Flat screen TV with expanded cable, antique pool table and windows, galore. The windows connect with the large wrap around 4 season porch that faces towards the lake. There are plenty of places to enjoy your morning coffee, evening glass of wine or maybe a game of foosball. The main floor can sleep up to 7 with 2 Queen bedrooms, one with private bath and one with a bathroom a few steps away and a twin/twin trundle bed on the porch. The porch has been completely outfitted with blinds for privacy and shade and ceiling fans for your comfort. Upstairs, there are 4 very large king bedrooms, each with their own bathroom. All the bedrooms have premium mattresses, gel pillows, and luxurious linens for a great night sleep. The Main house will sleep up to 15 people. For parties larger than 15 or if you just want to spread out, "The Barracks" is a separate building a few steps behind the main house. It is the perfect "escape" for the kids with sleeping for up to 8 in twins, a bathroom, TV and DVD.
The last of the many attributes that make South Shore House an exceptional place for your Lake Geneva vacation is parking. We have private parking for up to 9 cars. If you have ever tried to find parking in Lake Geneva in the summer, you will understand how valuable that is.

Perfection
What a lovely experience! Host was helpful and responsive. House is large and well appointed, perfect for our group of families. Kids had a few spots to play and have a safe “sleepover” experience. Lots of space to lounge, play and eat. It’s winter so we didn’t get to enjoy the outdoor space, but we talked about wanting to come back and enjoy the yard and short walk to the lake and all the amenities of downtown. The rooms are perfect for a large group, with 5 of the well-sized bedrooms being en suite. Wonderful stay!

Great place for family gathering!!
We brought two sides of families together from Wisconsin and Texas here over Christmas! We had an amazing time gathering, cooking, eating, talking, and playing games!! We even brought in an actor from the Murder Mystery Company and had our own little crime scene game. Perfect place for all of that. Very clean and very well stocked!! Great host.

About the host

Host profile image
Hi, I'm Tisha. My background is in fashion, antiques and home decorating. For those of you familiar with Lake Geneva, I used to own a store downtown called "I Love Funky's". I left retail to begin a new adventure in vacation rentals. I have also been in the furniture business, which gives me the ability to furnish and decorate creatively. I am so excited about bringing South Shore House to the vacationing public.

Why they chose this property

I don't know how we got so lucky to find this jewel, so close to everything, but I'm so glad we did. This house had been run as a Bed & Breakfast for many years until the owner retired and decided to downsize. What is so great about this house, besides the location, is the size of the rooms. They are HUGE! The living room is a great place for a large group to gather in front of the fireplace or shoot a game of pool. Of course, it wouldn't be a vacation if you didn't have a big porch to relax in. Walk one block, your at the lake, 2 more blocks, you can rent a boat, 2 more blocks and you're in the center of downtown.

What makes this property unique

I just got back from a long road trip, buying antiques for South Shore House. Not your grandmas antiques, but really fun, cool stuff like the original circus canvas that measures 8'x9'. Since I love to decorate and this house has so many rooms, I'm pretty sure I have died and gone to decorating heaven!
