Vacation rentals in Mettawa

Absolutely Loved our stay!! There aren't enough good things to say about the view, location & beautiful house. So fun! There's a pool table, air hockey & 2 free standing video games. Spent every sunset in the Lakeview room😍 Just gorgeous beyond words! Did i mention the Bald Eagle that hangs out in the tree right outside the Lakeview bedroom? Incredible! the lake doesn't freeze over in one spot in front of the lakeview window, saw all the big birds of prey hunt. It was definitely wildlife at its finest. The owners are Very responsive & told us to be on the look out for the eagle! Fantastic time! Loved Loved Loved it & already reserved for our Wedding weekend❤️

Ninna's place was fantastic! It was exactly as described, and the process was proactive. Ninna communicated very well and anticipated questions we may have. We had friends from the area join us for dinner, and Ninna was accommodating of that request. Her place was perfect, with everything we may need during our stay. The kitchen was stocked with all the things we needed, and the coffee nook was a nice touch! The kids enjoyed the little playroom upstairs, and the mattresses were very comfortable.

Vince’s place was amazing, it was such a good location, easy to drive to anywhere in Chicago. Vince was very easy to contact and was responsive within minutes. He made our stay very comfortable. The house was amazing and there was a lot of space, and there was a lot of amenities available for use, for example kitchen utensils and shower amenities. Overall this stay was amazing and I would book this again if I came back in the future

Wonderful stay as always, thank you so much!

Peaceful, felt like home, very spacious and comfortable

Tucked along the quiet northern edge of Antioch, this house doesn’t just offer a place to stay - it gives you something to feel. Vaulted ceilings, custom barnwood beds, and raw concrete countertops set the tone: warm, solid, and built with intent. The private beach isn’t flashy - it’s better. Soft sand, still water, and no reason to rush. Grill outside, gather at the big family-style table, then sweat it all out in the sauna that feels like it was made to erase stress. The beds hit the sweet spot between firm and forgiving. Every corner of the place feels curated without being pretentious. Jewel is just up the road if you need supplies, but you’ll quickly forget the outside world exists. And Waylon? The kind of host you rarely get - quick to respond, genuinely helpful, and fully dialed in without hovering. This isn’t just a weekend rental - it’s the kind of place that makes you rethink how you spend your time off. You’ll leave better than you arrived.

This was the cabin of our dreams! My friends and I came here for a girls weekend and fell in love! The owners provided firewood for us and left detailed instructions about all parts of the property. The pictures don’t do this place justice - such a beautiful area and cozily decorated cabin! 10/10 would love to come back!

It was great! The house was lovely and looked newly renovated. It was much roomier than I expected. The beds were very comfortable.
