About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire condo to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

If you want the best of Lake Geneva from the one of the hottest locations in the city this then you will love staying here!

If soaking up the sun and relaxing at the beach is your idea of a good time, you are 1 block away from the lake and enjoying your time relaxation in the sand.

Being setback 1 block from the main street allows you easy access to everything Lake Geneva has to offer and is surprisingly very quiet and relaxing.

Enjoy your stay in an amazing location that is clean and well maintained without the exorbitated cleaning fees everyone else charges.

There are 3 suites at this location so be sure to check out all of them. If you have a larger gathering, rent multiple suites or the entire building!

Great stay!

We enjoyed everything about the Ole Bistro Inn and the Garden Suite. The location was perfect in downtown Lake Geneva. The rooms were spacious and very clean. The process of checking in and checking out was very easy with Nicholas. He responded very quickly to my texts. We will stay again and possibly at one of the other 2 rooms in the Inn or one of his other rentals.

Great stay! The plus... communication, shower with mutiple jets, and Loaction (we could walk everywhere)!!! The downside... there is a restaurant attached to the building and people are constantly walking by you window, and parking is very limited! Over all my wife and I loved how close it was to everything! Parked on Friday and didnt have to move the vehicle till we left....

Embrace the Theme!

This room, in a stately building less than a block from Downtown Lake Geneva and Geneva Lake is decorated like an 1900's New Orleans Hotel room, but with an updated kitchen. The room is fun, embrace it! The host was there every step of the way, even contacting us when my husband and I arrived late on our first day. The location to the Lake, shopping and restaurants cannot be beat. Parking is in back, and if you have a choice of cars, we suggest you bring the smaller car as parking can be tight. Your spot is reserved, so you will have a parking spot, but as with all older towns, cars are much bigger than they used to be. That did not hamper the fun we had during our stay and being able to bring our purchases back to the room, then go eat, then shop some more, without having to move our vehicle. Thank you for a wonderful stay. Patricia and Brian.

Very Nice!!

The Garden Suite that we stayed in was clean, easy to get to and very nice. The shower is amazing, the bed is comfortable and right across the hall is a little cafe that has breakfast wraps and coffee. One we arrived, we didn’t have to drive anywhere. Restaurants, shopping and attractions are all in walking distance. Absolutely wonderful. Would definitely stay here again.

Location, location, location!

We loved our stay at the Garden Suite! The suite was extremely clean and had everything we needed. The location couldn't be beat! Seriously, I think it's the best location in town! You walk out the door and you're in the heart of it all....shops, restaurants, and a half block to Lake Geneva and the fabulous walking path around the Lake. Nicholas responded quickly to any concerns or questions I had. And, there is a little breakfast place across the hallway from this suite. We would grab a quick breakfast and sit on the front porch enjoying our coffee and watching the people walk by. I definitely recommend this rental to anyone wanting things at their fingertips in beautiful Lake Geneva! We would definitely stay here again!

Great weekend getaway

Our stay was very enjoyable. The property was close to everything we wanted to do. The property was very clean and the cafe next door was lovely. The only thing I wish I knew about ahead of time was that the parking was not fit for trucks. We have a truck and had to change vehicles to drive up when we found out no trucks can park there when we received the check in instructions.

Perfect Location

Suite is a good description, perfect for the two of us. Everything we needed was there and everything was in good repair. The host was responsive and flexible. The wifi connection was good. The weekend morning was a little loud because the town was crazy busy, but our weekdays were cozy and quiet. It is close to the lake and shopping. The bathroom area is pretty and big, the bed was comfortable, and I spent a good amount of time reading in the beautiful chaise lounge. The breakfast place next door is well priced and very yummy. We ate there twice. We parked when we arrived and didn't need to drive anywhere the whole time we visited. Definitely would stay there again. :)

Cute and Cozy

Great location - was able to enjoy the 50 degree weather in December by walking through the shops downtown and along the lake - then driving around the lake at night looking at Christmas lights! The Garden Suite was very clean and comfortable. Had all the amenities needed for a cozy weekend for two. The host, Nicholas, had great communication with us.The restaurant right next store took a little getting used to with the early morning noise and traffic, but it was handy for coffee and breakfast on Saturday morning!
