About this property

Family And Pet-Friendly On Waubeesee Lake ~ Includes Kayaks!

Quiet lake with beautiful views from the outside patio or lake facing sunroom porch. Enjoy solid sand and rock base lake to walk out in the water and swim. Three feet deep at end of pier and 20 feet deep at swim raft. At night, sit on the pier and watch the moon dance off the water. Fish for pan fish from the pier in the early morning or late day.
Perfect for the grandparents, a comfortable Queen bed in the bedroom on first floor. Other three bedrooms are upstairs. Large bedroom on second floor has King bed and overlooks lake while sun comes up in the morning. Third bedroom has Queen bed while forth bedroom has a Bunk bed. Bathroom with shower and tub are located on both levels.

The house fits up to 6 adults and 4 children comfortably. More than 3 families would be too crowded.

It seems no one is around and it is quiet throughout the week. Usually, the family of swans swim around the lake. Hummingbirds dart through the yard visiting the garden and feeders.

Children can find enough to do playing in the sand and water while you put something delicious on the grill and enjoy a drink in the beautiful breeze. Sit, watch and be amazed at what children can do to fill their time.

Paddle the lake in one of the boats and easily fine nature at work or sit and recall why coming to the lake is so important to family and friends.

Family Retreat
This was a great place for our family to get together. Lots of bedrooms and space to spread out. Nice places to hang out together inside or out. We rented the pontoon for a day and took the grandson tubing, then watched the sunset from the lake. Our daughter said it was 'the perfect place'.

Summer on the lake
This spot is a lake cottage gem. My wife and I spent 2 full months with 2 dogs and it exceeded my expectations. From swans at out pier to gardens blooming, it was delightful. The owners, now friends, were always helpful and available. We are seniors and the upstairs master was not a problem! We were all sad to leave!

Wonderful
7 year old summed it up by asking when we could come back. Kids really enjoyed the water. Owner had canoes and kayaks that we could use. Quiet dead end street. Plenty of room for the 6 of us + 1 dog. Only 20 minutes to the zoo or 30 minutes to downtown but felt like a world away.

This was a perfect weekend getaway for our family. The house is perfect and had amazing access to the lake. It also had kayaks plus life jackets so we could get out on the lake. Would love to come again some time!

Family with adult children in town for a wedding
We were in town for a wedding and this was a great option. We has several cars from our adult children driving from different areas and the host was very helpful making sure that there was room for all our vehicles. We didn't spend much time by the beautiful lake but my sons dog did enjoy her swim! This was much better than individual hotel rooms and we enjoyed our stay!

Great, peaceful, family-friendly place on the lake
We spent an amazing week at this lakeside Cabin with my elderly parents, my brother, my wife, my 12 yo boys and our dogs. This house was absolutely perfect! The owners/hosts were very accommodating and helpful, responded immediately to our questions, and made sure we had everything we needed. The house was clean, well furnished, comfortable, and fit our family well. The kitchen was well stocked with anything you needed, the bedrooms each had an AC unit, and the back enclosed patio/3 season room was ideal for our evenings playing cards, dominoes or board games. The patio area by the lake was great for hanging out during the day, reading and watching the kids play in the lake. I would enjoy quiet mornings there sipping my coffee watching the sunrise, and our family would eat lunch there after and before playing in the gorgeous lake. The lake was calm, peaceful and great for swimming and kayaking. A bit more busy on the weekend with a few boats pulling water-skiers and tubers around, and quiet during the week. The kids and I enjoyed kayaking and exploring the lake and the whole family enjoyed jumping off the swim platform (my son even learned how to dive for the first time!) The location was ideal as well. There was a grocery store 10 minutes away that had everything you could need, and a gas station only 3 minutes away that had breakfast sandwiches , Racine kringle for breakfast, and beer for later in the day. Overall, I would highly recommend this place and we all would love to come back here again in the future.

Wonderfully relaxing
8 of us stayed ages 70-8. Everyone had a great time fishing, boating, kayaking, birdwatching and/or just relaxing. It’s great having the beautiful table and chairs by the water! Also enjoyed the large table on the front porch so we all could eat together and played games together. Hoping to stay at Swan’s Nest cottage again!!

Relaxing Week at the Lakes (Swans a definite plus)
We had a wonderful and relaxing time at this great property. We had everything we needed and more. Plenty of space for the 5 adults and 3 dogs (we paid a bit extra to bring the third dog - much appreciated so we could all be together) even when we had rain (only one day) watched movies on Hulu (provided) and board games on the dining room table. The lake is not busy, calm, easily swimmable right off the dock and the rental of the pontoon was well worth the reasonable price. We took it out every day (and often twice a day). We also used the kayaks and canoe, fire pit and grill and ample outdoor dining options. The kitchen is small so don't plan any gourmet cooking nights but offered enough space for two to easily prepare a meal. The "pass thru window" from the kitchen to the dining room made serving and clean up quick and easy. We didn't leave the house much beyond enjoying the lake but there are restaurants and grocery stores nearby. The stairs to the upper bedrooms was a bit challenging for the dogs but we carried them up and down without issue. Big bedrooms, comfy beds, A/C and fans in each room was plenty to keep the house comfortable even on hot days. Two full bathrooms meant little waiting. Our hosts were great! We look forward to coming back again!

Beautiful weekend on the lake
We had a beautiful weekend on the lake. It was set up great for dogs and kids and plenty of adults. Well stocked kitchen for cooking all meals in. Great Lake toys. Saw so much wildlife. We saw an eagle catch a fish within 10 minutes of arriving. Would definitely book again when it’s warm enough to swim but it was plenty fun even without swimming.

Excellent Quiet Weekend
We had such a good time during our weekend at Wind Lake. The spacious house gave us plenty of spots to hang out inside or outside. On our first night, it was a bit chilly outside, so we hung out on the large porch in the back. The kitchen pass-through window made it very easy for us to enjoy each others' company while cooking. On the second day, it warmed up significantly, so we took the kayaks and canoes out on the lake. It was gorgeous! The grill and patio set up down by the water were perfect for lounging to enjoy the nice weather. 10/10 would stay again!

About the host

Hosted by Jennifer

Host profile image
My family bought this house because we enjoy the lake and the neighborhood. When the children finish school we will retire here full time.

Why they chose this property

Waubeesee Lake is secluded enough to feel up like North Wisconsin while it's close enough to Milwaukee and several small towns.

What makes this property unique

We enjoy the nature most of all. The kids enjoy the lake. From sun up to sun set it's all about being in the water. We go from one thing to another. We love to fish, swim, snorkel, boat ride, play with the dog and bike through the neighborhoods.
