About this property

🌲☀️Private Lakefront prop. With Kayaks And Paddleboard Boat Rental Optional☀️🌲

  • This PREMIER PROPERTY is called About Time, celebrate spending time together with your favorite people. Time is the best gift we can give one another. Sleeps 16 comfortably but could accommodate up to 20 if you want to sleep on couches. This 5 bedrooms (2 downstairs), 3 bath house on Lake Elizabeth, has a large yard for lawn games, private pier, basketball court, corn hole, LOTS of games and is surrounded by a gorgeous conservation area with 1.7 miles of hiking trails - true beauty!

    For swimming, we recommend taking the boat to the sand bar on the south side of the lake or driving to Twin Lakes beach on Lake Mary 5 minutes north.

    A gormet Chef is available if desired, otherwise, grill out back or down by the water, relax in the hammock or fish off the pier, whatever your fancy - swimming in this spring fed lake offers the best of the best. Bring your rafts and water toys. Only 1 bar/restaurant (Sand Bar) on the lake, so it is quieter and with 750 acres, perfect for water skiing and fishing. Catch the water ski show on Wednesday and Saturdays @ 6:00 during the Summer in Twin Lakes, WI.

    We love to recommend out favorite Yoga instructor and massage therapist for the girls getaways and Twin Lakes Boat Rental for the boys boat fun.
    They deliver directly to our dock.

    Lake Geneva is 15 minutes away and worth the drive for a paddleboat tour. Alpine Valley is 12 minutes away, Wilmot ski hill is 7 minutes away, Six Flags and Gurnee Outlet Mall is 25 minutes away. It's About Time you enjoy the place as much as we do. Welcome!

    No Smoking or prom parties, please. Majority of guests should be over the age of 25. We have a lot of love for this place and want our guests to feel the same and take care of it as it was their own!

    Small reception parties are ok but we don’t have parking for weddings or groups over 50 people

Comfortable and Quiet Stay

The house felt like home, the yard was perfect. I imagined a summer baseball game. The neighborhood was close to plenty of activities, while being far enough away for peaceful quiet nights. Contact was easy, and accessible the whole stay. Would gladly stay again!

Quick family getaway

This was a solid place for a bit of a family reunion for a couple of days! The ac was a bit wonky (warm upstairs, while the downstairs was the Arctic), but it didn't deter from us enjoying ourselves. Loved the mulberry trees! We were able to dock our boat at the pier but couldn't load it there because the area was too shallow, so it was a 5-10 min walk down to a better area to board. Great yard, quiet neighborhood. Owner was responsive to questions.

Nice spot

This was a beautiful property location with a lovely great room. The host is very responsive. There are truly 4 bedrooms and the others are spaces with beds in them which worked ok for us. Also the mater bathroom has a ‘curtain’ into the bathroom and not a door. Otherwise we enjoyed the view and the house.

Summer Trip

The property was exactly as described and Jeff was a great host. Space is great and plenty of room for our party to spread out. Bonus was location next to the Sand Bar as we were able to drop our boat there and in less than a minute be at the house where we were able to keep it.

Great house

We had a family crew of close to 20 people. We really enjoyed fishing off the pier, playing baseball in the big yard, kayaking out to the open lake, and just hanging out in the open kitchen/living room. Would recommend for big groups. Great host, quick responses.

My family and I were celebrating my sister's 70th birthday . There were 18 of us in total. Six were children. The house was big enough to accommodate all of us. The rooms were non traditional in the basement but my family enjoyed where they slept and had no complaints. The teenagers truly enjoyed the large yard, the hot tub and the fire pit. The very young children enjoyed the space to just run and play. My sister and I just enjoyed being together for two nights with our family and looking at the beautiful view. It was rainy and cold so we could not do any lake activities but there were many things we could have done that are listed. The host,Jeff was fantastic. He was easy to contact and answered every question I had. I would highly recommend this as a place to stay with a large group. You can do very little as we chose to do or entertain yourself in a variety of ways. We all had a great stay and hope to do it again. .

Wonderful lake week with friends

This house was great for housing a large group of people. We had 7 adults and 8 kids and all slept well. Location was good, boat rental was easy. The listing online needs some updating as the check out time is 11 not 12, the wifi codes are incorrect in the listing etc. but all minor things, we would definitely stay again.

Family Christmas Party

Wonderful location directly on the water. Well stocked and clean. Great location for quality family time. Peaceful in the winter I bet it’s even more fun in the summer. Sandbar marina and restaurant right down the lake and they will deliver a rental pontoon. We will go back in the summer. Hot tub was very nice.

Great outdoor space with lake access

This house worked great for our large group (17 total). The house had everything we needed. The best part of the property was the outdoor space from the elevated deck leading out to the dock. We spent the majority of the weekend outside and ventured out to the lake each day. Good communication with the owner leading up to and during our stay.

Bad weather But good time

Weather at the lake is always unpredictable but my family and I had a great time despite some rain. The house offers an open floor plan to allow large group gatherings on the main floor. The lower level has several rooms and game areas. The decks on main and lower level offer great lake views and some privacy. The lawn is huge - great for wiffel ball, croquet, bocce ball. Great sunsets

The house was just as advertised. Perfect for a large group. The main floor kitchen and open family room was where we spent most of our indoor time. The game room was a lot of fun. Ping pong and foosball were very popular. The hot tub was a big hit and enjoyed by many in our group. We would definitely come back. Jeff, the host was very helpful.

Wonderful Lake House

The cottage is just like pictures. Jeff was very attentive and let us drop off things early. We had 19 people stay one night. There is extra mattress and we brought a blow up one. The morning view is lovely. It was April so didn’t go into water. Used the fire pit for sing along w/ guitar. Will come back Tip: basement room with window is nice- quiet enough and best view of all the bedrooms. Front room big so everyone can hang! Thanks Jeff

Nice

The lakehouse super nice, owner communicated well, overall Good experience. A bit of feedback because the coffee machine was missing the pot so we had to go out to buy some. It was also a bit dusty. Check out was 11am and I received a text at 8:30am that cleaning crew was on the way so it felt rushed. Also, I would rather pay a cleaning fee (I understand garbage being taken out and cleaning up tables). Overall nice experience and owner did let us know jacuzzi was a bit stained from leaves so we didnt end up using.

Great owner, outdated house

Owner was very responsive and welcoming upon arrival. The house itself is very open concept and ideal for the summertime where you aren’t spending a lot of time in the house. The house itself, however, wasn’t ideal. The kitchen and main living room area are great. Improvements can be made in the living room where the tv doesn’t have basic cable and an outdated smart tv that really only works with the Roku ‘Live TV’ free channels that nobody watches. Bathrooms are littered with personal belongings in the closets, but towels for the showers are located out in the hallways. Refrigerator in the basement is filled with leftover food/venison in the freezer, which is odd. A lot of personal belongings and personal items, pictures of the owner and his family hang throughout the house. A fine house which was reasonably priced, but the vibe felt more like we were couch surfing in somebody else’s house rather than a welcoming vacation rental prepared for guests. Hot tub didn’t work, and the owner said he would notify his ‘hot tub guy’, but we never heard back. With kids in our family, the hot tub was the main reason we booked this house in the wintertime. I would probably decrease the price/night for future guests if the house is kept at this standard in the winter months.
