Hi, we are the Bauman family - Tim, Bethany, and our daughter Emri. We have always had a passion for exploration and adventure, thus deciding to settle down in the vacation destination closest to our roots, Lake Geneva.
Our love for experiencing new things has earned us the nickname of "living vacation to vacation". We have chosen to merge our careers with this obsession for recreation, and together, we value creating unforgettable memories, lifelong learning, and embracing new experiences.
We love helping local vacation property owners realize their goals and maximize earning potential with the latest technologies and with a personal, boutique-like experience.
We absolutely adore Lake Geneva! This place is perfect for our little family鈥攁wesome lake life for boating and water sports, fantastic outdoor adventures all year round, and let's not forget the legendary supper clubs and Friday fish fries. Lake Geneva offers our family great times, tasty food, and precious memories. We're super grateful to raise our little girl in such a fantastic spot!
We treat your guests like family, always going the extra mile to earn repeat business, 5-star reviews and increased revenue for you.
The home was adorable! Super comfy and cozy. My husband and I had the most relaxing time. Also, right in the middle Lake Geneva which was perfect for us since we were going to both places. Tim was a spectacular host. Very helpful and quick to respond. We plan to stay again!
This house was wonderful! It was clean and such a great location. You can walk downtown if you鈥檙e up for a slightly longer walk, otherwise the drive is only 2 minutes. Timothy was also very responsive and able to accommodate our special requests. Looking forward to staying again!
Wonderful home in Lake Geneva! Very clean, wifi was great, and essential grocery stores were just 2 minutes away. Our host, Timothy, made our entire stay perfect. Answering all of our questions and ensuring we had an amazing stay.
Best value in Lake Geneva for a family as far as I'm concerned. We had a great Thanksgiving Weekend in Lake Geneva at Timothy's place and would (will) do it again in a heartbeat.
My family and I had an absolute blast in Lake Geneva. The home was sparkling clean, well stocked and super comfortable. Tim was so nice and accommodating. Every single question was answered instantly. We can't wait to come back.
Our girls trip to Lake Geneva was amazing. The home was incredibly clean, super close to downtown Geneva, great neighborhood, had the essentials that we needed, and had enough bedding to accommodate all of us. Tim was a fantastic host. Gave us some wonderful restaurant recommendations and was super attentive to all of our questions.

As an example, some larger national companies only offer partial management at a reduced rate, which requires more effort on your part coordinating with cleaning crews, restocking supplies, changing linens, maintenance, etc.
