✨ Welcome to the Sage Street Bungalow, Est. 1910! ✨

Imagine staying in a beautifully restored, historic home just a stone’s throw from the stunning Geneva Lakefront and steps away from all the amazing shopping and dining that downtown Lake Geneva has to offer! 🌊🍽️ This gem is the perfect blend of old-world charm and modern comfort, making it the ideal spot for your next getaway. 🏡💕

But wait, there's more! The Sage Street Bungalow isn't just about high-end finishes and thoughtful touches (although those are pretty amazing! 😉). We’ve also designed this cozy escape with inclusion and accessibility in mind. Whether you’re looking for a quiet retreat or a fun-filled vacation with family, this bungalow is perfect for everyone. 🌟

With an entry ramp and a roll-in shower on the main level, we've worked hard to ensure that guests with mobility challenges or those who need a bit more support can enjoy their stay without any worries. 🙌💙 We believe everyone deserves the chance to relax and recharge, no matter their needs!

Got questions? Drop them in the comments! 👇

All of us at Geneva Lakes Vacations want to encourage you to visit the World's Tallest Glass Tree at Yerkes Observatory this coming weekend. This is the 3rd year that Yerkes has hosted the event, and this year, the tree will stand 36 feet tall. They have a winter makers market, glass blowing and wood working demos, and plenty of treats! All the proceeds from the holiday drinks and treats will go toward science and arts programming for the community at Yerkes Observatory.

Parking is at Williams Bay High School, where a heated trolley ride will take you to Yerkes Observatory. Tickets can be purchased in advance online or on-site once you get off the trolley. General entry is $5, but children 9 and under may enter for free.

Check the comments for a link to a mini-documentary featuring the history of the World's Tallest Glass Tree, and make sure you carve out some time this weekend to enjoy this installation!
