Great stay!
We really enjoyed our stay! The extra amenities were a bonus. The only thing that was missing for us was a tub to make it easier to wash our little ones in. However this would not stop us from staying here again.

Great stay, great location, clean, just a great VRBO!
We really enjoyed our stay and all directions were so clear and easy to follow from booking to departure. The location is fantastic and close in proximity to restaurants, trails and shopping. I wish the hosts would have contacted me via text as they promised so I could have easily contacted them when we departed. I let them know via the app but the app stopped allowing host contact after departure time so I never received confirmation that they knew we left.

Great home and location
We enjoyed our time at The Lighthouse. The location to downtown shops and beach worked out well for our teens to explore. The home provides two separate sitting areas, and this along with the four bedrooms, provides a lot of space. Easy parking. Nice outdoor patio area. Many extras provided by the homeowners with toiletries and kcups, a very welcoming touch.

We had a wonderful stay. Our host, Amy, was great communicating with us. The accommodations were exactly as pictured. We appreciated all the extra little things….fresh flowers, snacks, plenty of coffee, and bathroom products. The location was ideal with just a short walk to downtown. I would highly recommend.

Cute Spot in Lake Geneva, WI
We were looking for a place to stay for a wedding weekend and was able to find this place. Amy was great and super helpful! She checked in on us when there was a tornado warning to let us know how to get into the basement for safety. The Lighthouse was super cute and comfortable and would definitely stay again!

The perfect stay in LG
Property and owners were outstanding …. Check in and communication was timely and thoughtful. We have very high standards for cleanliness and have rarely had them met until we arrived at this property. Along with its impeccable cleanliness were all of the thoughtful amenities and special touches like fresh flowers. Thank you Amy and David for a great stay….

6 lifelong friends spent a long weekend together celebrating all of us turning 60 this past year. The house was perfect! It had everything we needed. Also had a nice outdoor area for relaxing, including a fire table, our first night we could not get the fire working, but we contacted the owner and he had ît fixed the next day! Would definitely choose this house again!

Amazing house!
The property is beautiful and Lisa was very communicative and helpful. The house had everything we needed for a weekend away (dishes, towels, etc) and is within walking distance of the lake (about 15-20 min). We had 2 toddlers with us and in addition to the house being great for adults it was also great for children.

About the host

Hosted by Amy at the Lighthouse

Host profile image
Hi! We’re a couple from the Midwest (that’s me!) and Maryland (that’s David!) who share a love for cozy spaces, good company, and creating places people can relax and reconnect.

Why they chose this property

When David first saw this house, it reminded him of a lighthouse—something strong, welcoming, and full of character. So, The Lighthouse was born. It was renovated with care, blending vintage charm and modern coastal style, to make it a retreat for family, friends, and weekend adventurers.

What makes this property unique

The Lighthouse is more than a place to stay—it’s a place to connect. Whether you’re sipping coffee in the sunroom, laughing around the firepit, or winding down in the cozy Beacon Room, we hope it becomes a part of your memories.

We know what it’s like to travel with family, plan girls’ weekends, or sneak away for a much-needed break. That’s why we’ve tried to think of everything—so you can just show up and enjoy.

Thank you for considering our home for your time in Lake Geneva. We’re honored to host you.
