You can also take in the lake from atop the boat house on its 1,000+ square foot wood deck which includes a marble top table for outdoor dining that can comfortably accommodate 8 or more people and a sundeck with 8-10 lounge chairs.

If needed, the home is equipped with two full-sized cribs, two highchairs, and tot riding toys. You will also have access to 7 adult bicycles for riding around the lake or into town.

Wonderful week at lake front property
Place was beautiful and had it all for all ages. So much to do, tennis and pickle ball. Outdoor play set . Dock and all kinds of water toys, easy access to boat rental - had it delivered from Lake Lawn resort. My favorite was the long screened in front porch with sofas and a swing. Gorgeous plantings everywhere. Everyone loved it.

Great for big groups & kids of all ages
We spent 4 wonderful nights on the property for a family reunion in August. We had kids ranging in age from 2 to 18 and there was something for every age group, highlights included the tennis/pickle ball court, playground, ping ping table and all the toys. Howard was very responsive and you can tell he loved this property, and it’s easy to see why! We can’t wait to come back! We

Spectacular Lake Delavan Property
This is a spectacular property that is right on the shore of Lake Delavan. It is kid-friendly with innumerable toys/games/activities for kids (big and little!) to enjoy. Our group was 6 adults and 4 kids aged 3-11 and everyone had a great time playing with toys/games in the house, as well as on the tennis court, hitting some golf balls, enjoying the Arctic Cat and other items in the garage, and especially playing in the lake off the pier and using some of the items in the boat house. Relaxing on the huge screened-in porch with a view of the lake was also a pleasure. Overall, a fantastic experience.

Delavan Lake
We had a great time at this property and the host was very accommodating. The house was very clean and there was something for everyone. My grandchildren enjoyed the play set outside and the tennis court. The sleeping arrangements were great for our family. The kitchen was nicely stocked with useful things. We would very much like to return to this property during warmer weather.

AMAZING PROPERTY AND HOST!!!
We loved our month at Howie's awesome house on beautiful Lake Delavan. The property itself was well maintained, spacious and perfect for a multigenerational family get-together. There were fun things to do for kids of all ages, and the grown ups were able to spread out. It sits on a large piece of land, and we had a great time having football games in the giant yard and playing tennis on the tennis courts. I couldn't have been happier with the stay! Howie was a kind and responsive host. Five stars!

We love this house!
This gorgeous home is very spacious, clean and has everything you need. The kitchen is well stocked, the large yard has room for everyone to spread out - enjoy tennis, climb the playground equipment, relax and socialize on the boat house deck or the huge screened in porch. The owner is very accommodating ensuring we have all we need. We took advantage of the kayaks, paddle board and lilly pad. I can't say enough about this lovely home and graciousness of the owner! Highly recommended.

Loved our stay
This is a lovely house set on a gorgeous lakefront acreage. Mr. Levine is a gracious host ensuring our stay was enjoyable. The screened in porch was a favorite spot, we ate several meals on the boat deck, the tennis court was popular with all ages and the house was well stocked with linens and kitchen supplies. We rented a boat pulling it up to the slip braving the chilly waters of May. Our family reunion was enjoyed by all at this incredible lakefront home.

Great family retreat!
We recently stayed at this beautiful home on Lake Delavan. We had adult kids and and 2 children. There was something for everyone. We all got our own bedrooms and bathrooms. The kitchen was fully stocked and ready to go so it made getting breakfast and lunch easy for all. We loved sitting on the boat house to star gaze and sitting in the huge screened in porch for meals. The grandkids loved the playground area and that there were toys to play with. We had use of the tubes and we all loved that. We had rented a boat and it was so convient to dock our boat at our own pier. All of the rooms were so comfortable. My son had to work from the lake for a few days and found the lake facing office a wonderful place to work. We just had a wonderful vacation and hope to be back next year. The owner was very proud of his home and was a joy to work with. We had a couple of questions and they were answered immediately. It's not always easy to find a home to rent that can accommodate a large group of various ages and this home did the trick. We loved it!

Absolutely Perfect Lake Retreat!
We were looking for a property where we could host a family gathering as well as stay a few days with the smaller family group and wanted to be on Lake Delavan. This property handled it all and is the premier property on the lake - the grounds are beautiful, the location on the lake is excellent and the owners are so wonderful to deal with. What I look for in a rental is that the house is stocked the same way my home is and we found that double here- the bed linens, towels, kitchen, tv stations, wi fi, and all the 'toys' including a playground for the younger children and plastic pools for the youngest ones to enjoy their own' lake ' experience. I would wholeheartedly recommend this property and we will hope to be back again ourselves. As I told the owner, I am most happy to write a review, but would prefer to keep their beautiful home a secret!! If you are looking for the perfect retreat for yourself and your family - this is it.
