About this house rental
Covid is over and it's time to get out and make up for lost time! Gather your family in our Historic Civil War-era home built in 1863. Our home is one of the oldest homes in Lake Geneva and in the famous Maple Park Historic District. If location is important, if walking to everything is high on the priority list, if convenience is ideal click "book now" before all the weeks in our calendar are taken. Only half block from the lake, and stones throw to Library Park.
Our home has been extensively renovated over the past two years with an eye to the contemporary convenience and sophistication while keeping the traditional beauty and romanticism of the past.
From the moment you walk through the entry door and see the curved staircase you know this home is special. Imagine all the stories that have been told on the front porch during long summer evenings. It's time to add your stories to the ones already told. Gather the family, pull up a chair and exchange memories as you rock on the front porch or around the fire-pit in the back yard.
Our large Kitchen/ Gathering room will be the center of many a card game, conversations late into the night, lazy breakfasts, easy lunches and fantastic dinners. The long dining room table seats 10 comfortably. And there's a little people's table, too. The family room encourages the couch potato to feel right at home watching movies or ball games on Streaming Smart TV! The living room is a place you will enjoy quiet conversation, reading a good book or taking that well-deserved nap. Appreciate the privacy of two primary suites with their own baths, one on the 1st floor and one on the 2nd floor. A powder room serves the main floor rooms. Full sized washer and dryer. Large yard for tossing the ball or enjoying the sun. And just a short walk to the unique shops and restaurants in downtown Lake Geneva.
We have a BBQ grill on the rear patio to enjoy your family's favorite recipes. There's a wrought iron table and chairs with umbrella stand for your afternoon leisure. The rear yard has a fire pit surrounded by 6 adirondack chairs so bring fixings for s'mores. Your friends and children will make memories to last a lifetime. It's a place you'll want to come back to year after year. Talk to us to plan for the following year. Over half of our guests book the same week the following year, we can make it happen!
Allow us to help you enjoy your stay here in our home. We look forward to having you.

Absolutely love this home! Very convenient to restaurants, shopping and lake! Paul made staying here so easy, lovely inside with very comfortable beds, everything you need for a relaxing weekend by the lake.. stocked bathrooms and kitchen! Games, toys and tons of movies available. Although we did not cook during our stay the kitchen is stocked with anything and everything you would ever need to prepare a meal! I booked another stay in 2024 before leaving this home!! Thank you Paul!!

What an amazing property. Perfect location close to lake/beach and downtown area. Back yard and fire pit were the chosen hang out spaces for both kids and adults. Interior was spacious, comfortable and easily fit our family of 9. Fluffy towels and comfortable beds made it even better. Working with Paul was a breeze and hope to visit this property again in the near future!

We had a chill bachelorette party of 8 ladies and the house was GORGEOUS!!! You could tell they put a lot of pride and love into maintaining this space. The pictures do not even do it justice. It’s so open and comfortable. Perfect amount of bedrooms and bathrooms. Paul is super quick to respond and the absolute best host!! I can’t wait to come back!! I couldn’t recommend it more!!!

We enjoyed a wonderful three days in Lake Geneva reconnecting with our family from different states. The house was perfect for our group and so convenient to shops and restaurants in Lake Geneva. Parking can be a problem in the downtown area so being able to walk places was a big plus for us! The home had everything we needed and more! Thank you Paul for a wonderful stay!

Friends Reunion Weekend was a success due in part to this host, house and the location. We all loved the house, and appreciated all of the gathering space. No details were forgotten in making it feel like home. Super walking location to the lake and downtown Lake Geneva. I don’t think I will ever have a more attentive VRBO host than Paul has been. We would highly recommend this home to anyone, and hope to return soon.

Four ladies on a girls' trip. We all had our own bedroom, and two of us shared a bathroom. The house is perfectly located for anyone. It's literally a two-block walk to all the shopping and restaurants on Main Street. There's a nice large kitchen that was equipped with anything you'll need. The front porch with rocking chairs was the perfect place for morning coffee while waiting for the rest of the group to wake up. Pack your tennis shoes and go for a nice walk along the lakeshore. Paul, the host, is very prompt with responses and answered any question we had. Stop looking and book this place. You won't regret it.

This home was perfect for our annual visit to Lake Geneva. It is very close to the public beach and a short walk to downtown shops and restaurants. We enjoyed having the space to spread out while being able to prepare and enjoy meals together in the modern kitchen and large dining table. We loved the yard and fire pit for evenings together. We had everything we needed here from pots and pans to beach towels and floaties. I highly recommend this rental. The property and it’s owner are super!

Wonderful property in Lake Geneva!
We just spent a week here for a family reunion and birthday celebration. The location is incredible! Just a block to the beach and downtown. The home is spacious and nicely decorated. It has a large well equipped kitchen and updated bathrooms. Lots of different spaces and seating for conversations indoors and outside. We loved sipping on our coffee enjoying the morning breeze on the front porch. Paul, the owner was great to work with and very timely in responding. This is a great choice for a getaway at Lake Geneva. Highly recommend!

Family wedding week. Lovely older historical home in a lake resort town about three short blocks to the beach and town. Walkable to anywhere downtown. Children were delighted with the bunkers. Modernized bathrooms and lots of games and books for kids. Kind and responsive hosts with loads of extras, including grill, fireplace, beach toys and tags. We have lived in this town previously. It's fun to see it through the eyes of tourists and stay in a house we have admired for years.

The neighborhood is ridiculously close to the beach and to town. The pictures actually make the house seem smaller.....it's pretty comfy/sizable, especially for a house built in 1836,

House was exactly as advertised. House was well stocked with the necessities and was in a perfect location. We walked to the beach and downtown everyday.

Enjoyed being within walking distance of beach, dock, restaurants, and shopping. We had five females and there was more than enough space for us. We enjoyed the well stocked kitchen and plenty of towels. Also, both upstairs and downstairs were more than adequately cooled. It was very hot during our stay, and we appreciated the well cooled house.

Phenomenal place that was as advertised
Had a golf trip with buddies and used Lake Geneva as central point. Owner/Paul was awesome to deal with.
The house itself is fantastic. Clean, spacious, great location that allowed us to walk to bars/restaurants, and everything worked perfectly.

Awesome Owner, Awesome House, Awesome Location
We stayed at the property for about 4 weeks. From the initial contact throughout the entire stay the owner of the house was very easy to work with and checked in on us to make sure we were happy. I can not say enought about the positive experience.
The house itself was recently updated and the interior combines the traditional landmark architecture with new renovations through out the house(most bathrooms have radiant floors). The front porch is great and the backyard has both a patio and big lawn.
The location is perfect. You are a block from the main beach and a block from downtown. You can not beat the location.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU CONSIDER THIS HOUSE FOR YOUR NEXT GETAWAY.

Pre-Wedding gathering
We stayed here with family and the bride and groom. The double master suites were perfect with the other two rooms sharing a very spacious third bath.
The house was super spacious with multiple gathering/conversation areas. Kitchen and baths upgraded and beautiful!
Paul was a perfect host who made check in seamless and was very accommodating of every need. Communication was timely and easy.
Literally blocks to downtown!
We will definitely stay here again when the need arises!
