This charming lakehouse contained all the amenities we could possibly need. The beds were comfy, the kitchen was large and well equipped, and the layout/decor was lovely. The views of the lake were beautiful, and there is a bike path almost literally across the street, perfect for walking the dog. The location is close to the freeway, and there are lots of restaurants close by (including two on either side of the unit). Will definitely come back!

It was such a beautiful sight! The pictures are amazing but when you get there it’s an experience a picture just can’t capture. My family and I went to relax, unwind and reconnect during our spring break. It was such a wonderful stay and you can get to so many places with a 6min drive or uberEats. I can’t wait to revisit again.

Nicely updated little house located between 2 very busy restaurants... Would suggest adding curtains in the bedrooms near the Sunset Grill, as lights shine brightly until late in the evening, making sleeping difficult! Glad for the many ceiling fans, as sunshine through the back windows/doors really heated the place up in the near 90 degree afternoons. We cooked most of our meals here and had everything we needed! Loved being able to rent a pontoon boat as well... Owner was very responsive and helpful for inquiries!

Relaxing Stay on Pewaukee Lake
We had a great stay overall and would definitely rent this property again. The location is beautiful, with close access to a trail and lots of boat activity to watch—especially the sailing. The bed was super comfortable, and the host was very responsive when we had a minor WiFi issue.The property is situated directly between two bars, which made us a little nervous at first (especially over the 4th of July weekend), but it ended up being a pleasant surprise. The live music was actually enjoyable, didn’t go too late, and it wasn’t loud at night—we slept great!The kitchen and bathroom could be a bit better stocked, so just be prepared if you plan on cooking or are staying with a larger group. The water off the porch is clean but has a lot of plant growth, so it’s not ideal for swimming.One big plus: pets are allowed, and ours had a great time too! It made the trip even more enjoyable.Overall, a lovely spot with great views, a fun atmosphere, and a comfortable place to relax. We’d happily stay again!
