Breathtaking WATERFRONT HOME w Private Dock, July & Aug Dates are Now Available!

Stunning Delavan Lake Home! ON THE LAKE!!
**LOCATION, LOCATION**minutes from Lake Geneva!! On the BEST location on Delavan Lake ~ along the walking path! There is no street parking allowed. However, the Delavan Lake Home can accommodate at least 16 vehicles, no problem! All of the rooms including the bedrooms are very spacious sleeping 18 people comfortably. Our typical guests are 3-4 family’s together. We have many grandparents who love staying here with their children, children’s spouses and grandchildren all under the same roof!!

BEST Location on Delavan Lake! Super-Clean-Beautiful and Directly on the Lake with an actual wide Pier not a narrow Runway Pier.

Ask about 3rd night free dates. Holidays not included. Sorry, but we do not allow bachelor parties or prom parties.

One of the most beautifully updated and immaculately kept homes on the lake is The Delavan Lake Home!! New kitchen, dining room and bathroom! New cabinets, quartz countertops, flooring, carpeting, windows, blinds, bedroom furniture, mattresses, dining room, family room, sun room outside remodel as well!! Look at the reviews!! SLEEPS 1-18!!

If you are looking to rent a boat or pontoon we have the best contacts for that! Our guests love having their boat/pontoon delivered to the pier! Or you can walk right down the lake sidewalk in front of the home to another marina to pick up your boat from their pier. It is a short walk!

This stunningly decorated and spacious lake house is 3,500 square feet and is on Delavan Lake! It is a private waterfront home on the north shores of spectacular Lake Delavan. It is located 15 minutes away from Lake Geneva - 'the next lake over”.

It has 5 very large bedrooms that include 1 king bed, 3 queen beds, 4 full beds and bunk beds (2 twins). There are 2 bedrooms on the main floor which is perfect for those who have a hard time with stairs! One with a king bed right next to the main level full bathroom and the other with a queen bed that has it's own full bathroom. Upstairs there is a bedroom that has 4 full beds, another bedroom that has a queen bed and a bunk bed (2 twins) and the final bedroom that has a queen bed. There is also a full bathroom. The 4th full bathroom is in the lower level. There is a gorgeous and modern newly remodeled oversized kitchen and dining room, family room, sun room with sitting area and a dining area, laundry room and mud room. The home has a lovely wrap around deck that overlooks beautiful Lake Delavan. The deck has 2 gorgeous umbrella table sets with 8 chairs at each and two lounge chairs.

There is a lower covered patio area with a gorgeous, comfy sofa, 2 comfy chairs, cocktail and end tables from the Great Escape! 6 Adirondack chairs and an over sized picnic table that would seat 8 easily. Right near the patio area is a fire pit for roasting marshmallows and hot dogs. All of this is facing the lake!! You will have your very own private pier to fish from, swim from, read a book on or simply pull your boat up to. Includes everything you need: linens, washing machine and dryer, gas grill, full kitchen including microwave, dishwasher, toaster, blender, dishes, pots and pans, utensils, can opener, wine opener etc...etc.

This home truly offers every amenity! The landscape includes many, various perennials, ornamental grasses and mature trees. It is lovely to sit on the deck or lower patio having the morning coffee, lunch or dinner while the boats with tubers, water skiers and sail boats are passing by. It's almost as if they are putting on a show just for you!

Another wonderful feature is the walking path along the lake. It is directly in front of the beautiful homes. You can step right onto it from the lake side of the home and go for a walk along the lake.

For added convenience there is a Super Wal-Mart, Piggly Wiggly, Kohls and many other stores within a 3 minute drive. The historic Inn Between Bar and Grill offering a variety of Craft Beers and delicious sandwiches all while enjoying the lake views is only a couple of minutes walk from the house! In addition, a couple of other restaurants and pub grub eateries are under a 5 minute walk too.

18 people max. There is an additional charge for more than 10 people and early check in or late check out requests when available. NO smoking. Absolutely No House Parties.

Great stay! I hosted a family reunion here for family aged 5-to-80 and everyone loved it. Spacious home created the perfect space for quality family time. Beautiful kitchen is well appointed. Perfect for cooking meals for a large group. Great location on the lake! Maureen was terrific to communicate with. It’s clear that they take pride in their home, maintain it very well, and care about providing a nice experience for their guests.

Great Vacation Lake Home
We rented this house to be near the venue of our daughter’s wedding. We had several family members from out of town that stayed with us. This house was perfect for our family! The house was exactly as pictured, with lots of room for our group. The lake was so beautiful, and we enjoyed having coffee on the patio every morning. The house was clean and very well appointed. The homeowner, Maureen, was very communicative and checked in to make sure we had everything we needed. I would highly recommend this property and would absolutely stay here again!

WONDERFUL Lake House
The lake house was wonderful. We had a party of 9 adults, one child. and one infant and had more than enough room in the house with beds to spare. The lake is not overly busy even on weekends and the swimming right off the dock was fantastic (not too cold or warm and no leeches) in late July. We caught a few fish right off the end of the dock also. The owner gave some great recommendations for food and where to rent a boat which all worked out great. All in all it was a more than a five star experience. I could not recommend higher.

What a beautiful and peaceful location. We truly enjoyed our stay. We had business meeting by day and boating by night. The boat dock was perfect and secure. The master bedroom's bed was the best.

Great Delavan Lake House!
This place was perfect for a large group of friends. The kitchen was newly redone and well equipped with everything we needed. There were great views of the lake and a perfect place to fish and boat off of. We rented a boat at Boat Wranglers - which I recommend as well - and was easy getting to/from. The location was perfect - right on the lake, but also close to anything we needed to buy. Maureen was great working with and made the trip easy and enjoyable. Highly recommended!

Celebrating our 60th Wedding Anniversary with Family
Everything was clean and comfortable; lots of space to park. The deck and the dock and the fire pit and the grill got a lot of use and the weather was perfect. We enjoyed being so close to the lake and listening to the night sounds (crickets), enjoying watching our grandchildren (cousins) play together, seeing geese flying over, the ducks swimming by the dock... lots of great sunrises and sunsets, a big full moon...many special memories at a wonderful place!

Excellent location!
We really enjoyed our stay! The house is on a nice section of the lake, quiet and not crowded. The deck is spacious, as we spent most of our time outside. The kitchen is large and has plenty of counter space to prep food. The owner was very helpful and responsive. I privately gave a few suggestions after our stay and she was open and appreciative. It was a slice of heaven during a stressful time with all that’s going on in the world!

About the host

Hosted by Maureen Patricia Maloney

Host profile image
Hello my name is Maureen. I am from Oak Lawn, Illinois and now live in Lockport, Illinois with my husband. It has been my absolute pleasure and privilege to manage The Delavan Lake Home. When we purchased this home it needed some tender love and care so we worked very hard in transforming it to the home of our dreams. We use the home ourselves but when we can't we rent it to other families. We visit and often stay at the home at least once a month this way we can really see how everything is working. When the home is not being used or for some reason we can't get there we have our handyman come in to do a once a week check up of the home. We are always amazed at how well all of our guests take care of the home. Every time we go to the home we always add something new; sheets, comforters, towel, pictures, furniture etc. It has been a labor of love and we have many repeat visitors each year. We hope that you will enjoy your time at The Delavan Lake Home as much as we do!!!

Why they chose this property

The number one reason we picked this property was the location. We are right in between charming down town Delavan and Lake Geneva. We are close to the shops, restaurants and other touristy sights of Lake Geneva but we get the real feel of lake home living on a quieter and not over crowed lake. We choose this particular Delavan Lake home mostly because of the amazing views of the lake it provides, the proximity of the home between down town Delavan and down town Lake Geneva, the fact that it is on the lake shore walking path and we also were amazed with the sizes of all of the rooms in this house. It is a very spacious home even all of the bedrooms are very big! You can have large groups and not feel crowded. We also were very aware that there is no street parking on the lake and this was one of the few homes that could accommodate at least 16 cars.

What makes this property unique

The large sizes of all of the rooms in the home that make it very easy to accommodates 3 to 4 families at a time. It is directly on the lake. It is on the walking path. It is walking distance to a few pub grub restaurants. It can accommodate 16 cars. It has a great lay out and decorated very well. It is run by the owners and no one is going to care more about a home than the owners of the home themselves.
