Upstairs, the tranquil primary suite awaits, boasting a spacious ensuite bathroom and a private balcony. An additional comfortable bedroom is also located on this floor. The lower level is an entertainment haven. Challenge your family to a game of ping pong or pool at the clubhouse, then settle in for movie night in the theater-style living room. This level also includes a private bedroom and bathroom, giving guests their own dedicated space.
Outside, the home's expansive deck invites you to immerse yourself in the surrounding forest. Enjoy dining al fresco with your loved ones using the BBQ grill, or gather around the fire pit for stories under the stars.

Great home with 3 nice levels and outdoor space
The communication with the owner and management company was fantastic throughout entire process! House met all of our needs, we loved the home. The only thing missing was use of a golf cart, but all in all, we were happy!

Lots to do on the property
Had a great time in Fontana. House was great and had a great deck to sit on. Only thing to be aware of is that you have to drive to the pool. Golf course is nice. We cooked at the house each night so can't comment on the restaurants.

Quality Place, Great Location
The neighborhood is great. We had a good time golfing and enjoying the pool. Only downside we noticed was that the house wasn't super kid friendly (no high chairs) so if you have young kids you'll have to bring a lot of your own things, but other than that we had no complaints. Back patio area was really nice and our hosts had great communication!

Right place, right time
It was great! The house was spacious; it was very clean; the kitchen was well equipped; the back screen porch was very nice; the neighborhood was quiet & pretty; and we could go on and on! It was a perfect place for us to celebrate Christmas and to relax and recharge. We are so grateful to have been able to spend much needed time together there!

Great location
We loved the community and the house was great. There were a significant amount of flies in the house and lady bugs, but I’m wondering if that’s the norm in the area this time of year because we experienced the same dining for breakfast downtown Lake Geneva. Overall, a good stay.

Friends or Family this house has it all!
We gathered to celebrate 40 years of friendship. The rooms and porch were so inviting that we sat for hours chatting. The bedrooms were so comfortable and we had plenty of space. We enjoyed long walks around the neighborhood and a visit to the beach. There are tons of great restaurants close by and an easy drive into Lake Geneva. Highly recommend this home away from home.

Wonderful place!
Great location. We spent a lot of time on the screen porch and when it got chilly, just fired up the outdoor propane heater. All finishes and furnishings, linens and kitchenware were high end. Great amenities at Abbey Springs also!
