Lake Accessible Apartment
Very clear, beautiful location on the lake, background and restaurant was awesome. Jake was very friendly and just a nice guy!!!

Villa @ Chula Vista Resort w/FREE Waterpark Passes
Perfect for our little family of 4 that included a baby and toddler! Having a little kitchen was so helpful. We enjoyed being across the road in a more secluded area not within the hotel too! Eric sent multiple messages with all the info we needed! Would definitely stay again!

The Riverview Retreat, unique spacious upper.
Tyler’s place is a great place to stay. You won’t be disappointed! It is close to downtown. Very clean and all the pans you need for cooking if you decide to stay in and cook. Tyler’s place is comfortable. Highly recommend!

Riverview Big Family Condo 3 bedroom/3 bath for 16
Syed was very helpful and responsive the duration of booking the condo and the stay. The place was just beautiful with a nice scenic view from both balconies. Attractions, entertainment, and restaurants (outside of the property) were minutes away, along with gas stations and convenience stores such as Dollar General and even Walgreens. The kids had an amazing time. You don’t have to bring any cookware, just food and seasonings. Check-in was extremely easy. Put the code in and you’re good to go. The condo was a slightly modernized cabin. I personally loved the 14’ ceilings and the fact that every room had a separate bathroom. The kids loved the in-room jacuzzi. The beds were comfortable and the shower water was hot! Shower gel, shampoo, conditioner, and air fresheners were in all bathrooms. We plan on visiting again in the soon to take advantage of Noah’s Ark discounted tickets!

The Albert Inn - Located near Riverside Park
We had the best time at the Albert Inn! It was such a clean and cozy space. Ericka has done such a great job of providing everything to make it a highly functional home away from home.

Stylish Historic Upper+King Bed/ Walk to Downtown
Beautiful historic home. Walkable to the lake & local restaurants. Linens & beds - top notch. Navigating all of the stairs for my elderly mother was a bit tricky. We enjoyed the coffee station & dining room for easy breakfasts & living room spaces to stretch out.

The Eastpoint Suites 4, 5 &6 |Walk to lake|
Nice finishes inside. A short walk to downtown Lake Geneva

Paradise by a serene river, relax, play, explore
Great location. Looks just like the pictures. Very clean. Joel was a friendly host.

Riverview Retreat
Laura was an incredible host! Right from the start she was easy to communicate with, and send helpful reminders and tips about our stay. The location and home were both beautiful, very clean, and well stocked! You can tell Laura truly has a passion for hosting from staying here. We stayed for just one night to host a bachelorette getaway, and could not have asked for a better place to shower the bride to be!

Willow Lake Getaway Cozy for 2 - or large families
Roger was a great host and the home is beautiful. We couldn’t find a toaster this morning but we’re in a hurry and I know if I would have asked him he would have led me to it. If there isn’t one, it’s absolutely the only thing we needed but couldn’t find. Everything labeled in the home was super helpful. Great views and deck! The absolute only drawback on space is that some of the neighbors didn’t seem thrilled we were there. We have teen boys and we were respectful and quiet, but the neighbors kept staring us down and did not seem to appreciate us being there. Fantastic house and host!

Waterfront - Hot Tub - Sauna - 30 Min to Madison
Tim’s place is a gem! It’s located on the river, and very close to the lake as well… So you can easily do all sorts of water sports, which is important to my family. Communication was very clear and he is easy to get ahold of. I would definitely rent here again!

Huge Lake House Near Madison
Beautiful house, super clean lake, excellent location, grocery store just a mile away. We used canoes and paddle boards, host generously provided table games as well. Pool table was a hit with the boys and they played multiple times a day. Two separate living spaces were great for adults and our teens. We also were so happy to be able to bring our dog with us. Will definitely rent the house again!

Country lakeside home near the city and shops
We thoroughly enjoyed our 5-night stay at Diane's place. She has clearly put a lot of thought and effort into creating a terrific guest experience. The house was very nicely laid out, with a well-equipped kitchen, ample seating, plenty of linens, and comfortable beds. It was also very private, located at the end of a cul de sac. We very much enjoyed the views of the lake, to include from the deck and outdoor seating. Very convenient to Verona (and Epic), with good restaurants and other services located within a short drive. Very much recommended!

Meracle Acres
We had a wonderful time at Meracle Acres. The home and property is a fantastic cabin getaway. Plenty of space and feels private and secluded. Trails, fire pit, grill, hot tub, bar/gaming area. Would definitely recommend and stay again.

Yahara River paradise!
We had a wonderful time.! We enjoyed the peacefulness and wildlife at Mike’s place. We took advantage of the nearby park for biking. We tried to fish off of the dock. We throughly enjoyed the hot tub on several occasions. It was wonderful having s’mores around the fire. We took advantage of local dining as well as driving 20 minutes to Madison. We loved the Brazilian Steakhouse! We also traveled 35 minutes to Fort Atkinson to enjoy our favorite dinner theater, the Fireside. There is a delicious local bakery that is inexpensive. Go in the morning because they sell out. My very favorite part was watching and listening to the birds. Mike has a bird feeder that attaches to the window in his sun room. We went to Walmart 10 minutes away and bought bird seed (on the last day I saw Mike has bird seed) and 2 cakes of suet. The suet was gone in 5 days! That’s how many birds we had. The home is clean and well appointed. They have MANY books sitting out.

The Lake House on beautiful Mason Lake
This house is completely renovated and is set on Lake Mason (just 15-20 minutes from the Dells). The quality of the renovations (including a new pier on the lake) coupled with the cleanliness of the property, make it a gem of a find. The owner, Mike, is easy to communicate with. I highly recommend this property and will definitely be back.

Lakefront Condo - Private Beach | Boat Slip| Pool
Thank you Ben and Katy! We had the best time at your condo! The location was fantastic and the space was even nicer than the pictures! Plenty of room for our family! If we come back we will definitely try to stay here again!

1BR UpperDells Riverfront: Jacuzzi, Pool & Hot Tub
I had a wonderful stay! The place was exactly as described clean, cozy, and in a great location. Check-in was smooth, the neighborhood was quiet and safe, and the space had all the little touches that made it feel like home. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing and hassle-free experience!

COZY, Lakefront, Fireplace, Kayaks, Pontoon Ride
Jody and Jana were great hosts. They recommended local help when I had car trouble and even offered their own assistance. Their condo was clean and beautifully furnished. The place really was just right for our getaway!

*Pool/Hot Tub | 2 BR Condo | Waterfront | Downtown
Very cute corner unit. My dad would just sit out on the patio, watching people put their boats in the water and take their boat out of the water. Beds were very comfortable place was nice and clean. I would stay here again.

2BR Serene Riverfront • Spacious • Pool & Hot Tub
Best place to stay in the Dells if you’re bringing a boat. Hosts are amazing, and responsive. We will keep coming back here as long as they own it.

The Docksider for Couples & Young Families
This was our first vacation as a family with a 5 and 3 year old. Our neighbors were lovely. The beach was a great addition. The place was pristine and exactly enough for us. Perfect location close to everything and the communication leading up to the vacation was top notch. We had chilly weather but the vacation was just what we needed. Amazing view and super relaxing (even with the kids!) will definitely come back!

Magnificent waterfront views & cozy fireplace
This cozy little condo on lake Como/Geneva was outstanding! Easy access to all the things in the area! Lori was extremely communicative and we enjoyed her as a host. If we find ourselves in Geneva again we will certainly stay here on repeat!

Beautiful Condo at Chula Vista!
Great, comfortable place to stay for my birthday.
