NIGHTMARE ON DELAVAN STREET
THIS EXPERIENCE WAS SO BAD THAT AFTER A CALL WITH VRBO, EXPLAINING MY EXPERIENCE THEY CREDITED MY ACCOUNT.
If you don't need use of the lake, this house was "fine".
It is the rest of the experience that was a "nightmare".
First of all, they are NOT on the lake (Delavan home across the street from the lake) is how their VRBO is titled and that's misleading. They are on the "inlet" which is totally different from the lake. Secondly, the owners completely lied about lake access for my 2 wave runners. They told me I could put them in the lake right by the house, NOT true. Third, they said they had a pier that I could tie up the wave runners to when i wasn't using them, NOT true. I specifically emailed the owners and asked if they had a boat launch and pier that I could tie up to. Their answer was "YES" to both. If I could include the pics you would see what I was talking about. Prior to our arrival, the owner was trying to install a temporary pier, which he was unable to do. What does that tell you? Their solution was that I put the wave runners at the marina. Last thing, after discussing all the issues with the owner prior to using the home, they agreed to refund 1/2 of my money (minus VRBO fees) upon my departure. Well guess what? they reneged and told me, "we never said that". "CAVEAT EMPTOR".

Great Stay!
We used this house as a landing spot for a wedding weekend and it was a great fit. Clean, plenty of space and beds, and communication with hosts was easy! We would stay here again!

The perfect weekend getaway!
If I could give more than 5 stars, I would in a heartbeat! Gary and Kathy's place was absolutely perfect, and exactly as described. The location is just in the right spot, so when we wanted to head into town and explore Lake Geneva we only had to travel a few minutes, and when we wanted a little peace and quiet time, we were able to relax at the property and spend quality time together. Any time we needed anything, Gary and Kathy were so quick to respond, provided us with everything we needed, and were genuinely caring hosts. Truly, truly, a 5-star experience!

Quite an adventure
A friend and I stayed for the weekend. Communication with the owner was easy and responsive. Friday night check in and access was easy. House is as presented with one bedroom and bathroom on the first floor and 3 more bedrooms and a bathroom on the second floor. We only went to shop and grab dinner then came back to the house. Gary and Kathy came over when we couldn't figure out a couple of things and we had a nice visit. Saturday we went into Lake Geneva to shop before out lunch at Pier 290. Very delicious, by the way. Nice atmosphere. In the evening went to the Belfry Music Theater - highly recommend - when a tornado - F1- came though as close as a mile away from the old church. Delavan had much damage to trees and a large part of the town was without power as were other parts of the area due to several tornadoes that came through. Back at the rental, Gary and Kathy were on site when we returned to check on any damage to the house. No power resulted in no internet, cell service, lights, air conditioning, running water... None of which was the fault of the owners. Short of having a generator, nothing could have been different and very few houses have that. And it wasn't expected.
We slept poorly as the neighbors were up all night cutting down trees, and it was hot. We cut out trip short and left early on Sunday. We never want to be that close to a tornado again. Hopefully we will be able to visit again in a couple of years and give this a try again.
Thanks G&K

Golf Getaway
Perfect location for our annual golf getaway weekend. Plenty of space for the eight of us to relax on the patio after grilling dinner. House was clean and stocked with everything we needed. Gary & Kathy were great hosts and responsive to all of our questions.
