Perfect for large Group
We enjoyed our stay. The space was perfect for our long weekend ladies retreat. Having the separate kitchens and the central gathering room made for a great time for meals and group activities.

Fantastic place for a large group
My children and grandchildren joined us for our first trip to Geneva Lake. I'm so glad we choose this location (Fontana-on-Lake-Geneva) as it was much more quiet than the other side of the lake that has all of the shops, traffic and tourists. The large family room was the location for our meals, singing, games and memories. The separate apartments allowed individual family units some privacy away from the larger group and the little ones to take their naps. If you're looking for a quiet gathering and some "family time", this place is it!

Perfect for our family reunion.
The Heritage House is as advertised. The separate apartments allowed each of family units to be in their own space. The location is walking distance to the beach and restaurants. Yet it is quite. John is responsive and very accommodating.

Great Place.
11 Women from all over the US have kept in touch since university days years ago. We gathered, mixed and mingled in the kitchen and 2 living areas, catching up on families, jobs and travels. We ventured out to eat ice cream from the corner store and took a lake tour. Walked the neighborhood down to the lake and tried enjoyed sandwiches from Chucks. Great place!

Perfect for a multigenerational family gathering.
Heritage House was the perfect place for our family gathering, quirky yet functional. Each family group had it's own apartment yet we had a central place for all to gather. The treehouse was especially fun for the children! We were only there for 2 nights for a family wedding ann needed a longer stay to take full advantage of all the spaces and amenities Heritage House had to offer.

Perfect
This place was perfect for my bachelorette party! It had 4 different kitchens to help us prepare food and we even had a little party room! Enough space for everyone to have a bed and sleep comfortably. 10/10 would go again if I needed a lot of space!

Too short but very sweet stay
Quiet area. Great set up for our large family. It's three apartments with some good common space. Easy walk to downtown and the beach if your littles are up for the task (read strollers). Ground level two bedroom suites then two upstairs. The home is very clean and has what you need to be comfortable. Great deck outside lower kitchen. Ate most meals out there. Lake Geneva is a beautiful clean lake. We were there everyday. Bring beach towels. A couple of good kid parks nearby, coffee shop, ice cream, pizza, etc. Easy to roam to other nearby towns. Was grateful for how well it suited our needs to be separate and together. Enjoy!

Loved the deck so much. We were outside every day. Large home enough space to get away if you needed to and still have meals together. We needed more beach passes but love the neighborhood and beach and restaurants were great. Coming back‼️

Lots of space near the lake
We loved Heritage House for our family gathering. Thirteen of us were able to be together and yet have separate space. The house is well equipped, and the location was perfect for our 4th of July weekend stay. The hosts were responsive and very helpful. This was a great place for us.

Perfect house for a large group
The Heritage House is great for large groups. The multiple bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchens and living spaces were great for my extended family’s annual get together. Plenty of bedding and kitchen supplies. The beach; parks, shops, coffee shop and ice cream are all a short walk from the house.

Multiple family great escape
John could not have been more helpful planning for our family reunion. He responded immediately to questions on the home and area. The house is huge which allowed us to have babies sleep on one side and family games on the other. We easily fit everyone eating in the main kitchen and cooked s’mores on the fire pit outside. It is conveniently located within walking distance of the lake. It was a wonderful family escape that allowed us to connect. I highly recommend.
