Guys Getaway Weekend
The lake house was a perfect destination for a long guys weekend. The house is massive and there was more than enough room for 9 guys to stay comfortably. We played card games on the poker table, used the grill (a lot) and very large kitchen space, and watched March Madness all weekend. The house is equipped with everything that you need and more for a great weekend during anytime of the year. The Lake Geneva down town area is only a short drive away too which was fun to check out. Would love to come back in the summer time for another long weekend!

Threepeat
We've returned to the Funkie Lil Shack several years in a row now. The owner has always been helpful, and the Shack itself boasts features that our board game-playing group needs (such as PLENTY of tabletop space) that have proven surprisingly hard to find elsewhere.

Fantastic Weekend Getaway for the Super Bowl!
We had a great weekend with friends watching the Super Bowl at this house! It was spacious enough to accommodate everyone comfortably, and we had plenty of supplies to make the stay easy and enjoyable. The host was great—responsive and welcoming. Would definitely recommend for a group getaway!

Wonderful Lake Front home on Lake Como
This funkie little shack is a wonderful house for a family gathering. It has the perfect space for everyone to be together. The property manager is excellent and very responsive. My only complaint is that it's cold in the winter. I'm sure it's hard to heat such an open floor plan. This house would be great in the warmer months. We really enjoyed the long table in the dining room for games and Thanksgiving dinner, the pool table was also fun. We really enjoyed our stay. Thank you.

Girls 60 birthday weekend
It was a great location. walked to Mars for dinner and drinks. The great room view and backyard overlooked the lake. Kitchen area and table were large enough for all 10 of us to eat together and play games at the table. plenty to do in the area each day. The sunsets were lovely. Easy to find and quick drive to Lake Geneva for shopping and eating.

Cozy Lake House
We were supposed to be 2 families of 4 visiting Lake Geneva for the weekend, but sadly Covid messed up our friends’ plans. Nevertheless we went ahead, not sure of the house or area, but unwilling to cancel the whole trip. And how glad we were when we got there! The house is lovely - ample room for 10+ people but cozy and gracious for just the 4 of us as well. The entire living room has windows that provide a beautiful vista of the lake, as you sit in front of the warm fireplace. The comfy couch is huge, with plenty of room to lounge and watch movies. There were plenty of bathrooms - take note that there is a ground floor bathroom that can accommodate the elderly and young children. And amazingly the beds were VERY comfortable - no squishy mattresses to ruin our backs and our holiday. It was 11 degrees outside but the house was warm and not drafty. The kitchen had almost everything we needed. (A soup pot would have been nice in the winter, but honestly this house would not need it most of the year.) Hands down a great rental. Now we just have to come back - WITH our friends next time! Thanks for a lovely weekend.

Family Fun
My family (13 ppl) and I stayed again in Dan's home and had a wonderful stay. The home is spacious and sits off the lake. We had a great time paddle boarding, kayaking, swimming, and boating on the lake; though we noted lower lake levels and more lake weeds than in years past. The house is well equipped with everything you will need for preparing meals. Beds are comfy, and so is the couch. Water pressure is good too, even with multiple people showering at the same time. You won't regret reserving this home for your next family get together. Thanks Dan, looking forward to next year.

About the host

Hosted by Daniel W Bishop

Host profile image
We built this home in 2007 to get away from the West Side of Chicago. Spending time in Wisconsin required passing the "cheddar curtain" (the border between Illinois and Wisconsin) and just slowing down to enjoy the pleasantness of the people, clean air, and wonderful wildlife.
