The Bay House - one block from Geneva Lake

Small town lake life living! This tranquil, clean and cozy cottage located in the heart of the village is your home away from home. Walk around the corner and you're at Geneva Lake. Lake Geneva's best side is the west side - Williams Bay, just a few miles to downtown Lake Geneva.

Just one block to restaurants, coffee shops, nature trails; two blocks to Geneva Lake, three blocks to the Williams Bay Public Beach and Boat Launch. Fully equipped kitchen and propane grill for cooking at home, and watch your favorite shows on cable & smart TVs. Enjoy the huge backyard for grilling out, yard games, hammock naps and campfires. Curl up in the plush, dreamy beds. Or just lounge away on the front porch.

Williams Bay has an adorable small town feel, with great restaurants, lakefront trail, beach, kayak and SUP rentals, nature preserve, yoga and workout studios, Yerkes Observatory and more. Every season is beautiful here, and just six miles from the busy downtown Lake Geneva. The Geneva Lake area has great concert venues, lake activities, top dining destinations, fabulous boutique shopping, downhill skiing, local spas, breweries and wineries as well as wellness studios.

The Bay House offers a perfect remote working space with hi-speed wifi, small desk and chair in one bedroom. Post office and bank are also 1/2 block away. House also includes a high chair, play pen, kids toys and games.

Professionally cleaned every time after guests stay.

Available birthday/anniversary/surprise set-up upon request.
