Modern Waterfront House Getaway on Fox River
Beautiful, peaceful location right on the Fox River. The home had everything you could need for a great weekend away. Appliances were top of the line, clean bedding and cupboards were labeled so it was easy to find dishes/cookware. Hosts were responsive and check-in/check-out was easy. Highly recommend!!

TheGlassCabin @ HackmatackRetreat
Our Glass Cabin stay was absolutely perfect! It was beautiful and peaceful inside and out, a destination in itself. All communication was clear and questions were answered practically instantly. If you get an opportunity to stay here, you will consider yourself lucky when you leave!

Just Off The Lake Comfort
I had an incredible stay at Wanda's house! From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warmth and hospitality. The home was exactly as described, even better in person—spotlessly clean, beautifully decorated, and equipped with everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The location was perfect for the wedding we were attending that weekend. I especially loved how cozy and convenient it was. Wanda went above and beyond to ensure I had a great experience, providing flexible check in/out times, ample snacks, and an abundance of amenities to help it feel more like home. Communication was smooth and prompt, and helped with everything we needed. I highly recommend Wanda's place to anyone looking for a relaxing and cozy stay in Wonder Lake! I can’t wait to come back.

4 Bedrooms 2 full baths 1 floor
This was such a fantastic choice! The rooms, beds, and location were awesome. It’s a peaceful town and when we were not out playing tourist it was lovely to sit on the covered front porch to watch the rain. The hosts were communicative and we so appreciated our time here. Would love to come again!

Welcome to the Fox River
Barbara was a great host! The house was the perfect getaway from the city. The bed was so comfortable and the outdoor space was so relaxing. We appreciated how Barbara went above and beyond to ensure we had a wonderful stay!

Fox River Home - Near Island Lake
We fell in love with the river front. I left wanting to have more time down at the lounge chairs. Enjoyed having a campfire! It was close to both of my sisters in Crystal Lake! My sister wants to buy the cabin! lol Thank you for a wonderful vacation!!
Apartment rentals with lake access

Spacious apartment in Des Plaines
This is a great place to stay if you are coming to Chicago suburbs, 5 minutes to O'Hare makes it quite practical. Close to many amenities, retail stores and restaurants. Also the apartment was clean, comfy and peaceful. The neighborhood is safe to walk and close to a beautiful lake to enjoy with kids and family, definitely I would rent it for my family again. Great communication with Cani, kind and responsive host.

Downtown Lake Geneva-The Nautical Cottage
Perfect place for a girls weekend getaway! We loved how everything was in walking distance and we could easily come and go as we were shopping around Lake Geneva to drop off our goodies. The big kitchen table was amazing for sharing meals, playing games and just sitting around enjoy some great chats! Highly recommend Bill's place for your next stay in downtown Lake Geneva!

Downtown Geneva Street Getaway
Highly recommend and would definitely stay here again. Steve was very responsive and provided a quick tour of the place at check in. My wife and I traveled with our 2 year old and he had the place ready for a toddler, including a pack-n-play. Location was great, easily walkable to everything in town

528 Bungaloo 1 | 1 Bedroom | 1 Bath | Sleeps 2-4
Sharon's place is beautiful and just as described. She has lovely furnishings, lots of pots/pans/place settings, etc. in the kitchen and one of the best area guides and information that I have seen in an Airbnb. We loved being walking distance to Libertyville and all the restaurants and stores it has to offer plus the train to Chicago. We definitely felt like we were at home away from home.

Chain O' Lakes 3/1.5 Beach Penthouse and Boat Dock
Owners were amazing and responsive. Place was beautiful and peaceful. It is above a bar but guests were friendly and respectful. Lots of amenities. Will definitely be back

Deerpath Retreat at Abbey Springs
We had a great time and Jackie was very responsive to help with any questions or concerns. It’s a little further from clubhouse, pool and beach but having the golf cart was clutch. We would stay there again! Thanks Jackie!

Anna's Cozy One Bedroom Lakefront Apartment
Anna’s is perfectly located in downtown Kenosha so that it is convenient to Lake Michigan, Carthage College, and all the shops and restaurants downtown. The views are amazing, as is the coffee and food. But the best part about our stay were our hosts and the other staff. We cannot speak highly enough about Anna and Natalie and the crew. We are not sure when we will be back but we will definitely be coming back to Anna’s.

Historic home in quaint Grayslake, self check-in
Such a cute historic home located conveniently in downtown Grayslake. Steve’s place was exactly as described, and was quiet and cozy!
Lake access cottage rentals

The Butterfly Cottage
We took our family on a long weekend vacation to explore Lake Geneva and this was such a perfect lake side cottage that was only 20 mins from Lake Geneva. It was so nice to come home to a quiet spot to fish and relax. The cabin is so clean, cozy, cute and had more then everything we needed.

Cozy Como Getaway
Super cute place!

Chic & Charming Cottage - walkable to everything!
Wonderful stay! It’s the perfect location and has amazing charm. A short walk to Main Street shops, restaurants, and of course the lake! Brennan is a great host - responsive and shares local recommendations. Easy check-in/check-out process. Clean. Safe. Comfortable beds. All around great place! Would highly recommend and would come back!

#5 Tiny Lake Cottage at Cypress Resort & Marine
The Cabin was super cute and just as described. Every time I reached out with a question or request, Amanda responded promptly and helpfully. Would definitely book again.

The Lakehouse-3bdr/Lakefront/Wi-Fi
Breathtaking home! Supplied a cute little Thankyou basket with bottled waters! Also had a coffee machine with many options! It is greater than a hotel stay

Blue Cottage in the Bay - Walk to beach and shops
Very nice stay! The house was walking distance to a lot of nearby shops/restaurants and accommodated our family nicely. We enjoyed our stay.

Cozy 2 bedroom cottage on lake Delavan with kayaks
Had a great stay! Place was beautiful and the location was great! Tiffany was very responsive :) The second bedroom was smaller than anticipated but it made sense due to the size of the house. The private beach you have access to is less than a minute walk and we caught some good fish over there. Overall had a great stay and would highly recommend staying here!

Cabin Life: Fire Pit + Hammock
The quaint cabin was well designed inside, with plenty of room for us and our dog. The beds were comfortable and the wood paneling made it feel cozy. Bathroom was clean and the showerhead had excellent water pressure. The fireplace was a nice aspect of the house, as was the creek running through the backyard. We chose this place to relax, and we spent most of the time outside in the hammock. Very close to Lake Como and local restaurants (also only took 10 minutes to downtown Geneva, which was nice as I felt we got the best of both worlds). Molly was an excellent host -- quick to respond and kind.
