Travel has drastically changed in 2020, and it’s no secret how much we love the Lake Country and Waukesha County area. There is so much to offer with the quaint downtowns and beautiful lakes. For your next vacation, would you consider a local lake home? Maybe in a house that’s a mere 10 minutes from your actual home?
Recently a friend rented a home on Okauchee Lake for a staycation, and it made me wonder – would you love a local staycation? Whether you currently live on a lake, and would like to vacation to a different lake or you live off lake {like me} and would love to be on the lake for a weekend or full week – check out these gems below!

4 Lake Homes for your Next Staycation
Okauchee Lake
From Air Bnb:
We love the water views, relaxing on the deck, and playing on/in the water. We don’t have much for frontage, but enough to get access to the lake! We love to hang out at “Party Island” during the day and go to dinner by boat. I can’t say enough about living on Okauchee Lake! We hope you enjoy it as much as we do!
