About this property

Pewaukee Lake | Sunsets | Dogs | Beach | Good Vibes

We can all agree - Lake Life is the Best Life!
Welcome to *PEACE-Waukee* located on Pewaukee Lake! Our cheerful, retro retreat is brimming with good vibes. The cozy 3 bed/ 1 bath lake home comfortably sleeps 6 (7 with children), is dog friendly, and features stunning sunset views over the water. Excellent location off the highway and walking distance to downtown Pewaukee.
The large patio, grassy frontage, pier, firepit, books, games, and stocked amenities will provide a relaxing Lake-Cation all year round!

Our original lakefront home is the perfect getaway for visiting with family, fun-filled days on the water, and game nights with your groupies. This home is in a safe, residential community, and walking distance to the shops and beach in the Village of Pewaukee. The "groovy" living room and lakefront bedroom feature large picture windows that offer gorgeous sunset views over the calming water. The original wood-paneling is reminiscent of the classic lake homes from beloved childhood memories. To bring that nostalgia to life, we decorated with a fun, retro aesthetic to bring a smile to your face.
*Please Note: This house is a duplex. This rental unit is the entire first floor, basement, and back patio deck. There are NO interior shared spaces or entrances, your space is completely private to you. We have long term tenants the live on the 2nd floor. Since this is a multi-family building, you may hear muffled sounds from the tenants above.

Where You’ll Sleep:
*Sleeps Total: 7 Guests
Bedroom 1: KING Bed | TV | Walk in Closet
Bedroom 2: Queen Bed | Lake Views
Bedroom 3: Queen Bed | Twin Top Bunk Bed |

Outdoor living:
The extra-large back patio is the perfect place to watch the sunset, grill a meal, or gather around the firepit with wine and cheese (When in Wisconsin... ). The backyard features 65ft of flat, grassy frontage with plenty of room to spread out. Enjoy the gas grill, outdoor firepit and chairs, pier and a kid-friendly sandpit next to the water. The crisp fall nights enjoyed around the fire as the leaves show their beautiful colors might be my favorite time of year.
Oh and did we mention the sunset is spectacular all year long?!

Lake Life:
We are located walking distance to downtown Pewaukee shops and public beach. Pontoon rental available in the summer! Space to bring your own boat and tie up to our pier. Pewaukee Lake has multiple restaurants you can visit via boat. Rent a kayak or paddleboard from the local rental spots to soak up every minute of those long summer days. Pack your fishing poles all year round - Pewaukee is a premier Musky fishing lake! Pewaukee Lake is home to the largest Muskie population in southeastern Wisconsin. Ice Fishing is a very popular activity in winter.

Kitchen: Fully equipped with cooking and dining basics for enjoying meals at home. Refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave, range, & disposal. Dining table expands to comfortably fit 8 people. Traditional drip coffee maker, wine glasses, cutting boards, knife block, pots and pans, grilling utensils, etc.

The bonus basement rec room offers another space to enjoy! This area has a designated workspace, a TV, fireplace, homemade bar, and windows that provide natural light and a view of the backyard. The washer and dryer are also located in the basement. Always on-site pack-n-play, highchair seat, toys, books and games, and plastic kitchenware. Also included WIFI, 2 Smart TVs, fresh linens and towels, shower dispensers, blow dryer, portable tower fans, ironing board, and lots of fun games and books.
Don't forget your furry family member - we are also dog friendly!

Where to go/ What to do:
We are centrally located in the Lake Country Area, just a short walk to Pewaukee's downtown beachfront with public beach, shops and restaurants. The surrounding towns have lakes, parks, and restaurants in every direction! Only a half hour to Milwaukee's attractions and fantastic restaurants, and 1 hour to Madison.

We look forward to sharing our beautiful property and the Wisconsin charm with you!
Peace & Love

Week on Lake Pewaukee

This property was a great place to spend a week as a family of 4 to enjoy all that Lake Pewaukee has to offer. It felt like the lake cabin I grew up going to as a kid. Our family enjoyed the beach in front of the house, the dock for fishing, and the proximity to downtown (10 min walk). Kristen was amazing and helped us out with any questions we had. We enjoyed our time in Wisconsin and will return next summer to escape the Texas heat.

Perfect location for visiting Lake Country

We enjoyed watching the ducks, geese and waterskiiers playing on the water from the tranquil setting of this lovely lake house. The property is dated and ready for upgrades, but the host has created a very welcoming home away from home. The photos and description in the listing were spot on. We loved our stay.

Lake House

We needed a close and convenient get away spot that also allowed pets, and this lake home was perfect! We did a lot of water activities and rented a pontoon from Beachside since we needed a bit more room and hp than theirs had, but the owners did offer use of their pontoon if needed. Kristen was super accommodating to our needs and easy to contact. The house was clean and stocked with everything we needed. We definitely hope to come back next summer!!

Lovely lake side home with big deck and yard

Clean well maintained house on Pewaukee lake with large deck and yard. Photos are accurate. Host was very responsive. Easy walk to swimming beach, kayak/SUP rental and restaurants/coffee shop/wine bar. Our group included 5 adults with enough room to host some local family for dinner. Comfortable beds! Kitchen is easy to cook in. Bonus bathroom in the basement. We'd stay again.

Pure Wisconsin Getaway Destination

Do you like to boat, fish, swim, sunbath, socialize, relax, enjoy supper clubs, savor Brandy Old Fashioned cocktails and have a great time? If so, this is the place to stay and it is conveniently located just 20 minutes or so west of Milwaukee. Get the northwoods feel without driving 10 hours! The hosts, Kristen and Kyle, were simply fabulous to work with and their partners stopped by to check in on us too. Turn a 10/10 getaway into an 11/10 by renting the pontoon boat...yes, it's nicer than my vehicle and so much fun to cruise Pewaukee Lake! The panfish angling right off the dock was great and the evening sunsets from the home's deck cannot be beat. Highly recommended to everyone!!

Wonderful location

My husband and I stayed here for a week with my elderly in-laws and small grandchildren. It was perfect for all of us! The house was beautifully located on the lake, well-maintained property inside and out. Very clean and well stocked. It was more spacious than the pictures show. Everything was perfect for our stay! Kristen was attentive to any questions we had. Would highly recommend.
