We all (ages ranged from 6 to 74) had a wonderful time, even though it poured rain Friday night and all day Saturday. Here are some things we liked, in no particular order.The house was well kept and clean.The view of the lake is very pretty.There are plenty of bedrooms. It was easy to access our streaming channels. Having 2 refrigerators was very helpful with 7 people. There were games and a puzzle that we enjoyed, the Family Feud game was a hit! The drive way is very small, so having access to the garage was a wonderful plus, especially in the rain.The exit instructions were not excessive - very reasonable.

The property was perfect for the 14 of us. The dining room, kitchen and living room were roomy enough for all of us. The deck provided extra seating and the master bedroom was spectacular with a wonderful view of the lake.

A Fun, Relaxing Location
This was perfect for the weekend my friends and I needed! The sleeping options worked out great, the view makes you feel peaceful, and it was the ideal accommodations for a few friends wanting a weekend away! Everything was just as advertised, if not much more pleasant in person!

This property offers panoramic views of a beautiful lake, and the fireplace was so cozy! We loved the wide open floor plan and the multiple areas for entertaining each other. We celebrated my mother’s 93rd birthday there. There were plenty to do for every age group. The host was also very responsive whenever we had questions.

Very spacious
Location was ideal for our gathering. Wish I had requested slightly later checkout as we had to rush through breakfast and cleanup to be out promptly at 10. Next stay Ill remember to request in advance. Otherwise it was a beautiful and spacious location. We loved the fire pit for our smores!!

Wonderful Family Vacation!
Our family had such a wonderful time at your VRBO! The house was perfect for our group of 8. Bedrooms so comfortable and AC unit so easy to use. Kitchen very well stocked with a huge family table great for eating and playing games. The pool table was in constant use - a real bonus! We loved using the giant raft provided on your lakefront as well as fishing off of your pier. The outdoor deck was delightful! Jens prompt responses to any of our concerns was really appreciated. Can't wait to visit again!!! Ed and Gerri

Incredible home, incredible stay!
We booked this home for a long weekend for our book club. Honestly, we are all counting down the days until we have an excuse to do it again! The house is beautiful, well cared for and the hosts were super responsive. The layout is great for multiple couples, offering nice sized bedrooms and multiple full bathrooms. The fire pit on the water was a fan favorite as well, a perfect setting for sunset views. We can’t say enough about our experience and will definitely be returning yearly!

Needs TLC
This house was spacious. Unfortunately, the kitchen was not clean. Bed sheets were stained. Not sufficient silverware or towels.
Highlights of our stay in Fox Lake were Jet Funn and the Volo Museum.

Missing multiple smoke detectors, dishwasher was not properly screwed in to the counter top and would tilt forward when opening door, dryer not working properly, took 3 hours to dry a small load of clothes (a load of towels were left in dryer upon check in), sink in 1/2 bath is extremely loose, parking information needs to be updated (cars not able to be parked on street, share size of garage as some trucks & suvs will not fit inside garage). The listing for accessing the fire pit and dock was very deceiving. Pictures appears to make the yard seem to be connected but contained a retaining wall. We had multiple guests that were not able to access the dock and fire pit due to the rock stairs being small and uneven. Kitchen was missing essential items like measuring cups, baking pans, dish towels. The propane tank was also left empty and we had to pay to refill. Shower curtains had mold and grime along the bottom.

Perfect Weekend Getaway
We stayed here with 10 friends for a winter getaway from Chicago to go snow tubing at Wilmont mountain - the house and everything about our experience was perfect! Only about 15 mins away from Wilmont mountain and very close to the Fox Lake metra station. The house was very clean and had plenty of space and towels for all of us. The fireplaces made a chilly January weekend feel comfortable and warm. We would definitely stay here again and would love to visit in the summer! The house is right on the lake and has lots of outdoor space. Thanks again Ross and Jen!
