House, 3 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 2 Baths, (Sleeps 6-10)

If you're planning to rent a lake home in Southern Wisconsin, then Lake Geneva is the spot for you. The second deepest lake in the state, Lake Geneva is nine miles in length and three miles at its widest point. Lake Geneva is well-known for its clean water and gorgeous beaches so don't hesitate to plan a Wisconsin trip during the year's hotter months!

Our house is located on the south shore of Lake Geneva and is a five minute drive southwest of downtown Lake Geneva and a five minute drive southeast from downtown Fontana. The house was completely rehabed by a custom home builder in 2006-08 and can be accessed via keyless entry so no pick up of keys or drop offs are invloved. The home comes completely furnished with Flat Screen TV's, cable with HBO and Cinemax and wifi for all you techy's, over 500 movies and DVD's, many board games. For the outdoorsy types, ther is a new hammock to lay outside, custom fire pit, bag/cornhole games, lawn darts, swimming noodles and life preservers and basically anything you could think of to enjoy your stay inside or outside and have a great time. The home is part of a cozy, quiet community filled with mature trees, so it's not uncommon to see one of the many area deer, owls, turkeys and other wild birds in our yard.

A two-story cedar-shingled exterior Art & Craft home and a three year old completely remodeled interior features a new kitchen with stainless appliances and granite counters, a stone boulder fireplace, stone baths, a sun room with slate floor, cherry bead board and timber loft ceilings. There are ceiling fans and wood floors throughout. The home includes antique and vintage furnishings and decorations. You are 1/4 mile walk from lake access at Linn Pier which offers a boat launch and fishing from the dock. This home provides comfortable, lodge style hospitality to families and their pets! Perfect for family gatherings or a peaceful retreat.

“The Pier” is a well known country store and bait shop only four houses away where you can conveniently pick up anything you forgot to pack! Weekend vacationers can call 'The Pier' at (262) 348-9400 to speak with the owner John by Thursday morning to have custom meat and liquor orders available for your pickup on Friday for the weekend.

The downtown of Lake Geneva, Fontana and Williams Bay offer shopping, movie theaters, a variety of restaurants and public beaches and piers. Local activities include fishing, swimming, sailing, parasailing (rental boats, canoes, kayaks and paddle boats are available at local piers), boat and dinner cruise lake tours, spas, an indoor water park at Grand Geneva Resort, skiing at Geneva National, Alpine, and Wilmot, golfing at Geneva National, Abbey Springs and 10 other courses within a 15 minute drive, antique shops and malls, free wine tasting at Pop More Corks, horse shows and riding, a corn maze, farms offering fresh produce and picking in season, a full gaming casino 45 minutes away, and many area shows, fairs and other special events scheduled year-round.

About Brent Meder

My family and I grew up vacationing in Northern Illinois and Wisconsin, but over time as resorts closed we found it incredibly difficult to find a place where the family could get together and bring our pets. Ever since we visited Lake Geneva 20 years ago, we've been going back to vacation as often as we can. As our family grew, we also found Lake Geneva to be the perfect place to take the kids. They couldn't get enough of the lake and all the fun area activities. They were amazed the first time we took them horse back riding and skiing on the lake - they said, 'Cool, it's like having our very own gigantic playground!' There was no question we had to invest in our own 'Near the Lake Home', and we’re confident you’ll enjoy the area as much as we have.

Brent Meder purchased this house in 2006
What makes this house unique

It's the perfect destination and distance to travel from Chicago. After leaving after rush hour and pulling in the driveway 1 1/2 hours later we are always able to make the Friday night fish Fry with plenty of time to spare. The house, located on the wooded south shore, is ideal for relaxing and watching nature or if the need arises for some day or night fun - you are only five minutes from downtown Lake Geneva or Fontana. It offers the best of both worlds; peace and quiet at home and with many activities and nightlife nearby.

Fall Cabin Getaway

  • 4 of 5
  • Submitted: Sep 26, 2012
  • Stayed: Sep 2012
The Cabin was beautiful with exactly the amount of room we needed. We really enjoyed the fireplace and bonfire pit. The kitchen was fully equipped for the cooking we did. The location was great as we took many walks to the water to see the fall colors and the cabin was surrounded by trees. Our dog was welcome which was great since we love having her around! There was a good size yard for her to run around and we appreciated that accomodation. My only minor complaint would be that it wasn't as clean as I would have expected for a beautiful cabin i.e the floor being swept and the couch slipcover being vaccumed. Overall though my family is planning the same trip next year to the same cabin.

Surprise 30th Birthday Party

  • 5 of 5
  • Submitted: Sep 8, 2012
  • Stayed: Sep 2012
Wow! What an amazing place and experience. My boyfriends family/friends, and I surprised my boyfriend for his 30th birthday. We had such a great experience and the house is amazing. We are sad to leave (and wish this was our house). Nice cozy lake house that is up to date and is fully equipped with everything you can ever think you would need. The yard is beautiful, and pet friendly! It was nice to play bags (corn hole) outside and have the dogs running around the property freely. It is a very peaceful neighborhood, and close to town. The beds are very comfortable, and the bathrooms are gorgeous. The house is decorated beautifully. Brent was so great to work with. Very responsive and made the experience very smooth. I would highly recommend this place to any and everyone. Thank you for making this weekend an unforgettable one for my boyfriend, friends/family, and the doggies :)

Very enjoyable!

Lake Geneva, WI is a beautiful area. We traveled there for a family wedding but would love to visit again for pleasure! The town of Lake Geneva is chocked full of shops and restaurants and buzzes day and night. There are many activities mostly centered around the water. This cottage is 10-15 minutes from downtown so in a very quiet area - the only noises involve acorns dropping or bird calls. The cottage is very comfortable. The owner was most helpful in making our visit enjoyable. The nearby market is a nice amenity - it is so convenient and even though the market owner was getting ready to close for vacation, he still had everything we needed for breakfast and lunch. We would definitely recommend this cottage and the area!
