Please note that while our shoreline offers beautiful views and excellent fishing (UPDATE: LAKE COMUS HAS BEEN TEMPORARILY DRAINED AND FISHING IS NOT AVAILABLE UNTIL THE LAKE IS FILLED BACK IN, EXPECTED FALL 2025), it is rocky and unsuitable for swimming. For a refreshing swim, head to the managed Mill Pond nearby. Both bathrooms in the home are equipped with showers, but no bathtubs are available.

Great stay, very clean with a fully functional kitchen and large washer and dryer. Nice view of the lake with an enormous backyard. Good driveway with off-street parking. Easy walk to Main Street. Would stay again.
We had a very quiet and restful weekend away. The house was exactly as described in the listing, and had everything we needed. I would definitely come back for a warm weather stay.
Great alternative to staying at a hotel for a wedding. Everything was comfortable, kirchen well furnished. Views to the lake amazing and walking distance to cute downtown.
Our party of six had plenty of space here to enjoy the Lake Delavan attractions and the area of Lake Geneva nearby. The house was clean and tidy on our arrival and the host responded promptly to the questions we had. We could come here again!
We stayed 3 nights and really enjoyed this rental property. It's clean and well maintained, bed was comfortable, and it has a large, well-equipped kitchen. Large deck out back was a very pleasant place to sit and relax. Location is decent, a 5 min walk to all the Delavan main street stores, and half an hour drive to Lake Geneva. Can recommend.
Was in town for a wedding and chose this location because of the proximity to downtown Delavan. The house was clean and comfortable. We enjoyed the stay and would definitely come back in the summer season

The deck and yard to the lake were well received by my party
Had a girl's weekend and we all loved it! Easy walk to main street Delavan to some fine restaurants and pubs. The bedrooms were comfy and the whole place was spotless.! We will be booking with Tom and Amy for our next girls weekend next year!
We rented with Tom at his wonderful cabin in Delevan! We had 9 girls and it was a blast. Tom was great at communicating with me before our trip and was also very attentive when I had questions during our stay. The view was beautiful and overall it was a great weekend!
Our stay at this home was very lovely. The house was well kept and clean. The weather did not cooperate so we were unable to do any of the outdoor activities but there was plenty to do had it been nicer outside. I would definitely stay her again when in the area.
Came to visit my daughter for her birthday. The house was really nice and clean. The beds were great. Bathrooms clean and updated. Kitchen nice and big. Plenty of couches to lounge and visit and watch movies. No complaints. I would recommend this property to anyone.
The house was very clean and communication with Tom was easy and quick. The outdoor deck is really large and a great place to sit and chat while enjoying the pretty view of the lake. The park just across the lake was a relaxing and peaceful place to fish. Our meals in town were very good. Our only sticky point was the bedrooms being upstairs, because we're all in our 60's and stairs are, unfortunately, often a challenge. We definitely enjoyed our trip in Delavan!
This house was perfect, so nicely appointed!
Plenty of room to spread out, we especially enjoyed the back deck overlooking the massive yard and lake, if had cooler weather we definitely would’ve been out playing bocce and sitting by the fire. The beds were all very comfortable, and had nice bedding. The kitchen is open and has everything needed. Downtown area is 2 blocks away with several good restaurants. Mill Pond is a 5 minute walk, cute little spot to swim, play in the sand and relax.
The host was very communicative and a pleasure to work with.
We stay in several rentals a year throughout the country and MX and this place gets a perfect 10 in our eyes.
This house was clean and very well stocked both with towels and kitchen supplies. We were happy with the location and the easy drive to Lake Geneva. Our host was easy to contact and handled our question immediately, But upon arrival, we were disappointed with the overgrown state of the yard, especially the front. We looked forward to the beautiful backyard but unfortunately the stairway access was so overgrown with vines we found it difficult to use.

Disliked: Location, listing accuracy
Sometimes, pictures do lie.
Was excited to relax in the "beautiful lake view", only to find it was not as promised or pictured. The area was not what one might call "vacation-like" atmosphere. The view in the photo was nothing like the actual view from the house. Very disappointed.
Had a small reunion of college friends. This was excellent place for our group. Walking distance for most things easy to get to downtown with lots of things to do not too far from the lake. The town is very nice with lots of community activities.
Wonderful lakeside property with giant backyard and covered outdoor seating.
The owner and property exceeded out standards. Will stay again! Loved having access to a garage to storage my hitch tray while in the area. Short scenic drive to Lake Geneva.
