Funky Little Shack
This place was amazing. From the moment we arrived we had such a great time. The owner Daniel has everything you need at the house to have an amazing time. We fished everyday and caught Nothern Pike and Largemouth Bass. We will be booking this property for many years to come. It was everything advertised and so much more.

WBHS Class of 1970 55th class reunion
This rental house is beautiful, cozy and comfortable and felt like home. There were 5 couples staying in the house, some we hadn’t seen in 50 years! This house was the perfect location for our planned activities as it was centrally located. It was also the perfect place to just relax and get caught up with everyone. One of the activities we enjoyed was a tour of Yerkes Observatory! Brought back lots of great memories! God willing, we’d love to come back for our 60th reunion!

Wedding Weekend
We were joined here by our 4 adult children & their 3 spouses & 1 fiancé, along with our two grandsons for 3 nights. Our daughter & her fiancé were getting married at Boxed & Burlap…a beautiful, nearby wedding venue. The large living, dining, & kitchen were spacious, allowing us to gather together to eat, play games and just enjoy being together. Dan allowed a late checkout on Sunday which we greatly appreciated after a late night of celebration. Would definitely recommend for a large family!

Great retreat house
Our women's group had a terrific retreat. House was as described. Felt like being on a cruise ship looking out on the water. Layout of bedrooms allowed for privacy and quiet. Highly recommend.

Guys Getaway Weekend
The lake house was a perfect destination for a long guys weekend. The house is massive and there was more than enough room for 9 guys to stay comfortably. We played card games on the poker table, used the grill (a lot) and very large kitchen space, and watched March Madness all weekend. The house is equipped with everything that you need and more for a great weekend during anytime of the year. The Lake Geneva down town area is only a short drive away too which was fun to check out. Would love to come back in the summer time for another long weekend!

Threepeat
We've returned to the Funkie Lil Shack several years in a row now. The owner has always been helpful, and the Shack itself boasts features that our board game-playing group needs (such as PLENTY of tabletop space) that have proven surprisingly hard to find elsewhere.

Wonderful Lake Front home on Lake Como
This funkie little shack is a wonderful house for a family gathering. It has the perfect space for everyone to be together. The property manager is excellent and very responsive. My only complaint is that it's cold in the winter. I'm sure it's hard to heat such an open floor plan. This house would be great in the warmer months. We really enjoyed the long table in the dining room for games and Thanksgiving dinner, the pool table was also fun. We really enjoyed our stay. Thank you.

Girls 60 birthday weekend
It was a great location. walked to Mars for dinner and
drinks. The great room view and backyard overlooked the lake. Kitchen area and table were large enough for all 10 of us to eat together and play games at the table. plenty to do in the area each day. The sunsets were lovely.
Easy to find and quick drive to Lake Geneva for shopping and eating.
