Circa 1847. Built as a summer estate, this Carpenter Gothic inn does feature nearly a dozen of its namesake gables. Accommodations include rooms in the main house, as well as the restored coach house that is ideal for families or couples traveling together. The innkeeper has lived in the house since the 1950s and has decorated the historic home with what she describes as “Jackie O”-era furnishings. The innkeeper has been opening her home to guests since the 1960s. The homemade breakfasts include entrees such as a soufflé or perhaps eggs Benedict.

Eleven Gables Inn on Lake Geneva

I stayed at this inn a little while ago. I was amazed at how nice the place really is. It's quaint and quiet. There was a fireplace in my room. The location is perfect - within short walking distance to all of the main attractions in town. And, the hotel has free parking. What a great place to get away from it all. They serve a small breakfast to get your day started on a good note. And the beds are so comfortable you don't want to get up. My dog enjoyed a romp on the lake shore path and was made quite welcome here. Try it once. You will look for excuses to travel to Lake Geneva just so you can stay here. If you are looking for a private, quiet place to reconnect for a night or two you will enjoy your stay here. The house is classic lake house. Thanks! See ya soon!

My daughter and I stayed here a few weeks ago. I cannot recommend it enough. I have told all my friends. From the moment we arrived Sadie made us feel so welcome. The rooms are beautifully decorated, clean and very comfortable. The food was so so. And best of all was her lovely dog "EB"! My daughter fell in love with EB. They are within minutes of great restaurants, shopping and right on the lake.
