We loved this location, close to town, nice fishing off the dock and all the amenities you need. We have 3 families, and each took a house/apt. It was great to have space with plenty of bathrooms, beds, tvs, kitchen.
We're a group of dads who have been taking a golf trip for 16 years. Usually we stay on the course at nearby Lawsonia. This year we picked this property. Very accommodating for our large group. Everybody slept comfortably!
We had a fantastic time staying at Badger Shores. Property was as expected, and Colin was very accommodating and always quick to reply. Would definitely stay here again.
Great location with fantastic grounds. Multiple homes accommodated our large family group with plenty of space and accommodations. Main kitchen is well appointed with everything you need and the 2 kitchenettes make breakfast easy with everyone able to have their own schedule. Really enjoyed our stay.
This is the second time weâve stayed on Green Lake, but the first time at this location. Itâs such a great spot on the lake. Access to the water is perfect, wonderful food and cocktails can be found at Nortonâs next door, and easy walking to the beach and town for all the other things you want to do while in Green Lake. Fit family of 12 very easily. Highly recommend!
Great location, fantastic backyard, and lake access with 2 separate docs. The property is actually 2 separate houses so there is a huge amount of space. The only negative is the main/front house is a little old, but wasn't any issue and we enjoyed our stay. The owner was extremely responsive. Would stay there again
We so enjoyed our family reunion at the Green Lake cabins. The various cabins /apartments provided an ideal arrangement for our three families to have separate spaces but also get together on the spacious wrap-around porch. The quaint village was within walking distance for treats or supplies. Management was responsive and ground maintenance came back after our reunion celebration was over for the day.
We rented Badger Shores for our wedding week (we got married at the Heidel House about 5 min away) and stayed here with friends, family and our two dogs. It was perfect for what we needed and everyone enjoyed their stay, including the pups! Highly recommend renting this for a big group, as there are two houses on the property and we all had plenty of space. The views of the lake canât be beat, great yard for games, huge porch for gathering, plenty of parking and right next to delicious food at Nortonâs restaurant. I could go on! Weâll definitely be back!
I stayed there with my extended family (13 of us) and the location was amazing. We utilized the slip that was made available with the rental for our boat. I loved this because it allowed us to launch out boat once for the whole week.
During the day we were able to hit the water from the north end and were able to walk to downtown Green Lake. When were preparing lunch, our kids were able to play on the flat front lawn that leads to the lake. At night we were able to enjoy the evening on the porch while feeling the breeze off the lake and walk next door to Norton's for a drink/meal that we didn't have to prepare.
I'm hoping to make it back for a golfing trip with some friends and this location would work well for that.
The property is well located. After that, there is not much good to say. We were sent the door codes for our check in. They did not work. When I called the number on the listing it went to the previous owner. The new owners havenât bothered to update their info. The wifi info sent was incorrect. The homes were dirty. Appliances, dishes, pots, pans, all should be thrown away. They are old and disgusting. Nothing is clean. Crumbs in the cabinets, dishes arenât clean, etc. Everything was filthy. Light bulbs burned out, trash in closets and bushes. Knobs missing from doors, one units electronic lock is non functional. Some outlets work, some donât. Life safety items missing. Light fixtures missing. I could go one and on - but I think you get my drift. Needs lots of work.
Great Lakefront Home that could use a deep clean and some minor repairs
Amazing spot for a lake vacation. Plenty of room for a large family or a group of friends to share. Pictures accurately portray the property. The lakefront is beautiful and the large porch and yard that back up to the lake were the highlights of the stay for us. Owner very quick to respond to my questions. Cannot beat the location (next door to Nortonâs restaurant and a boat rental company, 3 minutes to downtown Green Lake, 5 minutes to great golf, 7 minutes to the grocery store). The only criticism we have was the cleanliness of the property. The kitchen and grill were dirty and greasy and need a deep clean. Common touch points like door handles and stair banisters had clearly not been wiped down for quite some time. The main house had a bit of a musty smell that I think a deep clean would solve. We spent most of our time outdoors enjoying the lake though, which this property goes above and beyond in making incredibly enjoyable.
My family and friends stay each year. The location and accommodations were perfect. The only comments would be a few of the windows, particularly in the house nearest the lake could use some repairs on the operating mechanism.
Thank you again for the great accommodations.

Awesome location, beautiful view, and super cute place!
Overall our stay was great... I'd love to give this 5 stars but there were just a few things that we felt like made this 4 stars instead of 5. The TV in one of the bedrooms didn't work at all and the wall mounted TV in the living room kept drooping - and looked like it was starting to pull away from the wall! Some of the rooms were missing blinds and one of the downstairs blinds actually kept falling off the window. There was a little issue with wifi because the code that was in the check in message didn't match the book but the host was quick to respond to my message about it. We also didn't realize that the bedrooms in the carriage house are actually split up into 2 separate apartments and have their own entrances. We felt like the description of the set up could have been more clear. Again, overall it was a great stay! Loved that its right next to the bar and restaurant and it was very cute.
One of the nicest properties Iâve ever stayed at
We absolutely loved this place! What a gem. Between the view and accommodations, it doesnât get any better. The location is also top notch. Thank you!
beautiful setting but below average cleanliness and accommodations
The location of this rental is gorgeous - it's right on the shores of Green Lake and next door to Norton's. The houses can fit a lot of guests but the accommodations are very simple. The property wasn't clean to the standards we're used to at rental properties. Also, pans and appliances are very old. I didn't even feel safe cooking with the scratched pans. If it's location and space you're after this place is great but the property itself is below average.
This property is one of the premier properties on Green Lake. Offering a boat slip, flat lot complete with yard games and water activities. Amazing water views, wrap around porches and many other impressive amenities. This property is made for your next vacation.
