The BEST Family Get-Away!

Review Submitted: September 12, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
We stayed at Water's Edge for our first summer vacation with our infant son. Our experience was perfect in every way. Mary went out of her way to help us plan our visit - she answered our (many!) questions about the area, found infant care items so we would not need to travel with them, even helped us search for flights! The house was perfect for a true escape from daily life, from the hot tub to the hammock to the premium cable to the wireless internet. The street on which Water's Edge is located is secluded, and we rarely saw anyone else while we were there. This was great for us because no one bothered our small baby and we didn't bother anyone else!

While at Water's Edge, here are the tough decisions we had to make: Morning coffee on the deck or at the end of the dock? Star-gazing from the fire-pit or the hot tub? Light jacket or not (temps: 60s-70s! in August!)? Should the hammock be used for napping or reading? One s'more or two?

I would recommend cooking most of your meals at the house. We tried to go to a couple of the local restaurants, but the ones we tried were bar-type joints that allowed smoking (not the best if you have small kids!).

We visited Sassy Cow Creamery. They have the *best* ice cream! Definitely worth the scenic drive. We also ate brunch one morning at Marigold Kitchen in Madison = A++!!

Water's Edge quickly became our home. We definitely plan to go back!

The Most Relaxing and Enjoyable Vacation!

LadyHawk Huntley, IL
Review Submitted: September 29, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
My fiancee and I had the most relaxing vacation we could have asked for. The house is immaculately clean and has all the amenities you could ask for. A lake right outside your windows, a Hot Tub, a big deck, a Hammock, a Fire Pit for making s'mores at night, premium cable, not to mention the 52" HD plasma flat screen, and high speed internet. The location of the home is quiet. The entire time we were there we did not see a soul except for a few people who were riding their boats. To make things even better, Mary is the most pleasant and accommodating owner I have ever had the pleasure to work with. She answered all of my questions and then some, and will go out of her way to help in any way. There is nothing you will be wanting for when you stay at Water's Edge. We were pleasantly surprised and we will definitely be back.

We had a blast! The house was very welcoming and CLEAN! The hot tub was fun and relaxing! We need to come back in the summer when there is more outdoor stuff to do! Mary was a pleasure to work with as far as making all are plans! Our dog, Rocky, was the most relaxed out of all of us! Sincerely, Susan and Family

Great Place and a Very Helpful Owner

JohnD5150 Evanston, IL
Review Submitted: March 31, 2009 Date of Stay: March 2009
My friends and I came up here mainly to enjoy the 52-inch plasma tv and hot tub during the opening weekend of the NCAA basketball tournament a few weeks ago. And we couldn't have been more thrilled with our experience! Everything is exactly as it is described and looks just like the pictures. The place was spotless when we arrived and instructions for getting the key and getting in were very clear and very easy. The owner was also extremely helpful at all points in the process; returned e-mails quickly and was only too happy to answer any and all questions in great detail. Absolutely no hidden charges and my deposit was returned to me within 5 days. Couldn't have gone smoother and we will definitely be back!

We had a great weekend getaway at this cabin. The cabin was immaculate and very well kept. We went in the winter and had a great time in the hot tub. The owners are very helpful and accomodating. The cabin had everything you could possibly ever think of that you would need while you were there. We will definitely plan a trip back. Thanks for a great get away!

This cabin is right on the lake and very easy to find right off the highway. It has every amenity you could want - just bring some clothes! The towels, sheets, etc. are in great condition. The cabin is tidy and clean inside. The hot tub is awesome and relaxing. The owner is very responsive, informative, kind, and generous. We will definitely make a trip back to this cabin!

We loved our stay at Water's Edge! The place was perfect for eight people with comfortable bedrooms, a spacious kitchen and living room and good kitchen equipment. The place is clean with lots of complimentary items.

This was our second stay at Water's Edge and it was just as much fun as the first one! We enjoyed relaxing, playing board games, watching the large screen TV and soaking in the hot tub! This time we tried ice-fishing on Lake WI right off the backyard and even though we didn't catch anything we had fun trying. The house is well equipped with everything you need to be comfortable and more. We're already planning our late spring trip for more fishing!
