This was a nice large Studio Apartment converted from a 3 car garage. It was beautifully decorated all new appliances. Came with everything needed. Fyi, the bedroom has a 3/4 in wall separating the living room so it was not in closed. Perfect for a couple. Like the previous review, the outside curtains covering the front blow around and don't stay closed. Bring some clips. It would be better to have some inside. Walking distance into town with shops and restaurants. The host Mary was so nice and responded quickly. Be careful of the key code, WIFI and address instructions from VRBO. I had to call Mary to confirm. all in all we had a great time

Cozy and Comfy in Green Lake
My wife and I loved this converted garage space. It's a one bedroom with a small kitchen, but the layout makes it feel bigger. We usually go for 2 BR places, but had no issues with room spending a week here. All appliances are in great condition and the convenience of the location is unbeatable. We chatted briefly with the property manager and her assistant and both could not have been friendlier. A fantastic stay!

Unique Gem at Green Lake
Took a chance and was impressed with what looked to be a unique, clean, compact and modern property with pier / lake access. Was pleseantly surprised at how big and modern this converted double depth, 3 car garage was! Outside of outdoor curtains that wouldnt stay closed due to wind, and rain on Monday...this was an almost perfect getaway :-). Only other blip was unpredictable wi-fi setup. Although, we werent there to watch tv...so, wasnt big deal for us. Bed was comfortable, kitchen was stocked with all necessities including modern appliances and decor was stylish and fitting. Bathroom was pretty nice, functional. Neat added feature was the heated fan. Only blip is the showerhead. Functional, but, may need to be cleaned out for better flow. Overall this was a very neat, clean, unique and functional property. Mary was very responsive and we felt she would always be able to respond quickly, thank you! We will definitely recommend this property and will absolutely consider a future stay at this gem, the lilly pad on Green Lake.

The Lily Pad
Adorable place! Walking distance to downtown. Neighborhood was quiet. We had everything that we needed. Storm came thru in the evening while we were there. So the power went out. I would recommend having flashlights or candles for guest. I would also recommend weights on outside curtains so they dont blow around or having some in the inside.

Everything about this place is great! Mary was super helpful and sweet and fun, her attention to detail is amazing, location is perfect. For couples and small families, I highly recommend this spot if you plan to be in Green Lake. If we make our way back would definitely stay again.

Cute little place close to town
This is a beautifully remodeled garage. The bedroom is not fully a "room," but is separated from the living area by one wall and open on one wall, so not private, which I did not expect from the listing. We made it work with five adults; it would be better for a couple or a couple with a couple kids. The kitchen was great, very functional and nice. The dock was fine; we did not realize from the listing that it is a short walk away. It wasn't super easy to launch a kayak from the rocks/mud (but I made it work) and isn't a great place to swim. But if you just looking for a cute, comfortable, reasonably priced place to stay super close to activities in town, I think this is a great choice and a good value. I would rent it again under those circumstances. The owner/host was very pleasant to work with and very accommodating and responsive.

Clean, cozy, comfortable, convenient!
We were looking for a nice little space to stay while in Green Lake for a boat reunion. This rental ended up being absolutely perfect! A private dock for our boat, steps away from shops and restaurants (yet, situated on a quiet street) and a small, converted garage that was larger than we expected, clean and cute— we found the perfect place for us! Mary was great and so is her place.

Very nice little place
We really enjoyed our stay here. The place was spotless and so much of the interior was new and tastefully designed. Perfect for two! Downtown was easily within walking distance. A nice patio out front. The garage doors with windows kept the space bright and cheery. The owner was extremely responsive when we had a small problem, and sent her handyman over immediately to fix it. The only negative was it was over 90 degrees the day we arrived, and the space had been shut down, and the air conditioner had a hard time catching up. Otherwise a lovely stay!

Quaint house in great neighborhood, within very short walk of downtown. Decorated and furnished very nicely. I do recommend a handyman/woman spending a few hours tightening screws, leveling tables, unclogging drains (perhaps that’s already on the docket), but all in all, we were very happy with this property. They really made the most out of the space... lots of options for sleeping. We would stay again. Thank you for the home away from home!

Family vacation
This property accommodated our families well. The space worked really well for us. It was an awesome location with the ability to walk to downtown. And plenty of parking.. the kitchen could have been better stocked with pans an utensils since we were cooking for a large group. Also we had a difficult time getting the pontoon boat we had rented to our dock since the water was high and we had to go under the bridge, even though this boat was supposed to “work” for this property, I wished I had rented s better boat and kept it at the marina instead of enduring the hassle of trying to get boat to fit under bridge.

Great place on the lake for a family weekend
Our family rented Aunt Edna’s cottage for a long weekend. There were 10 of us ranging from 6 to 68 and everyone commented that this cottage worked great for us. While it is an older cottage it has been kept up well. The location on Green Lake within 2 blocks of downtown made it very convenient. Restaurants, coffee shops and a nearby park are just a few minutes from the cottage. If our family decides to come to Green Lake in the future, we would definitely book this unit if available.

Cute House in a Great Location!
Our family stayed here for 3 nights. The house is cute and comfortable. We rented a pontoon boat from Action Marina, which was within walking distance of the house. We could walk to stores, restaurants, a coffee shop and had plenty of space to hang out together. I highly recommend this property for a large group or family event!

I loved sitting on the back deck drinking coffee and looking at the pier and lake and watching squirrels and bunnies and listening to birds. It's a quick walk to the marina, where we rented a pontoon boat both days. The house was wonderful for our family of 5!
