Please note that while our shoreline offers beautiful views and excellent fishing (UPDATE: LAKE COMUS HAS BEEN TEMPORARILY DRAINED AND FISHING IS NOT AVAILABLE UNTIL THE LAKE IS FILLED BACK IN, EXPECTED FALL 2025), it is rocky and unsuitable for swimming. For a refreshing swim, head to the managed Mill Pond nearby. Both bathrooms in the home are equipped with showers, but no bathtubs are available.

Fun Weekend in Delevan

The home was clean with plenty of towels and amenities. The host was prompt and responsive. We would love to stay again when we are in town next time.

Sometimes, pictures do lie.

Was excited to relax in the "beautiful lake view", only to find it was not as promised or pictured. The area was not what one might call "vacation-like" atmosphere. The view in the photo was nothing like the actual view from the house. Very disappointed.

Great house with a great location

Our party of six had plenty of space here to enjoy the Lake Delavan attractions and the area of Lake Geneva nearby. The house was clean and tidy on our arrival and the host responded promptly to the questions we had. We could come here again!

Weekend in Delevan, WI

Our family of three couples and one infant from across the country gathered in Delavan, WI for a wedding at a nearby resort. We were there in November, so we could not take advantage of the large deck. The place was perfect for our brief weekend, and we would gladly return in the summer!

Enjoyed our stay

We stayed 3 nights and really enjoyed this rental property. It's clean and well maintained, bed was comfortable, and it has a large, well-equipped kitchen. Large deck out back was a very pleasant place to sit and relax. Location is decent, a 5 min walk to all the Delavan main street stores, and half an hour drive to Lake Geneva. Can recommend.

Delavan

Our stay at this home was very lovely. The house was well kept and clean. The weather did not cooperate so we were unable to do any of the outdoor activities but there was plenty to do had it been nicer outside. I would definitely stay her again when in the area.

Awesome Property and Managers

My friends and I booked this house for the 4th of July week and we absolutely loved staying here. The house was very clean when we walked in, the TV had convenient/watchable apps, the beds were perfect and comfy, etc. Tom was great and had fast communication for whatever questions I had prior to my stay and during my stay. Thank you so much again!

Great stay at newly renovated place

Nice place with lots of room for a reunion of friends. About 18 min. to downtown Lake Geneva and beautiful view of lake in Delevan. Owner was accessible and accommodated early check in. No laborious check-out procedure, just trash and dishes. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.
