The Bay House was perfect for us. Lots of space, a good kitchen and a very comfortable living area. We loved the location. It’s was easy to find and put us right where we wanted to be . . . Close to Yerkes and Lake Geneva. I would definitely book there again.

The house was fantastic for 6 adults and 2 kids. Everything you needed to know was laid out before we even arrived. There were plenty of bathroom towels, which most places lack. A huge bonus she provided a beach wagon and toys for us to use during our stay. Made for light packing!

We stayed at Holly’s place for a girls weekend and it was perfect! For the location and the quality of the house, it felt like an amazing deal. The house was exactly as described and pictured, clean, and had what we needed! We knew this going into the trip, but it was tight quarters for six adults (especially for a group of friends, not couples), and if we were there longer than a few days we may have wanted more space. The front porch was perfect for morning coffee! There were a few great restaurants, coffee, and most importantly, two ice cream shops within a five minute walk of the house. I was not prepared for how quaint Williams Bay was and it was such a nice respite from the busyness of Lake Geneva. We are already scheming about when we can come back!
