Relaxing home base
A secluded lakefront property on a calm lake great for canoeing and kayaking, with easy access to Delavan and Williams Bay. Plenty of room for our 9-person multi-generational family. Well-outfitted kitchen made for easy meal preparation. Plenty to do in the house and on property as well: games, sports, and puzzles. Will definitely consider staying again.

There is nothing to do
Nice house however. This is not a swimming or boating lake. All of us were bored so badly. Its a strange layout with the tv downstairs . We walked around the upper floor for 20 mins looking for the tv and ended up going to walmart to buy a roku tv for upstairs by the big comfy couch .
This wasnt supp to be a tv vaca.
Which i guess is ok if u dont have mobility issues
Yes there r birds
Rental did not meet our needs or expectations

Thanksgiving Getaway
My family had a wonderful stay in Whitewater at this comfy home. The kitchen and dining room were put to good use as we cooked Thanksgiving Dinner for the family. Kids loved the game room; adults loved the hot tub. Everyone loved the house.

Rural Lake home
The pictures in this listing don't do the house justice. The house was roomier than the pictures lead on in my opinion. It worked great for the work retreat I was hosting with my group of adults. Celine was communicative throughout the stay in case we needed anything. Would rent again

We Loved Our Stay
We found everything very nice. Good kitchen/dining space. Well supplied. Note that main living space and living room is upstairs and not a good fit for mobility issues. We thought the place was kid friendly with games and movies and nice yard to play in. Hosts were very accommodating by answering rather quickly when we texted or left a message. Yes, the internet was slow but the signal was strong throughout the property. One of the better experiences we've had with vacation rentals.
