Notes from the host
Bonding Time Lake Home
This home is the first of our Bonding Time LLC vacation homes! We pride ourselves on this one as of the nicest spots on the lake, with 100 ft of hard sand, natural beach shoreline, and breathtaking sunset views! We have five star reviews and many families that reserve the same week year after year ... as a traveler, you know that's a good sign!
Irogami Lake is a secret treasure. It is right across from Silver Lake in Wautoma (Silver Lake is VERY busy). Irogami is a very clean lake, that although is shallow (maximum depth is about 8 feet), it is a full recreation lake perfect for skiing, tubing, wake boarding, fishing, etc.
Sorry, we do not allow parties. Minimum booking age is 25 years old.
Dogs possible at owners discretion and $125 fee. No pets other than dogs. Do not Instant Book if you have a dog, as there are additional rules that apply for dogs and you'll want to know if you're going to be agreeable to them before you commit.
Located on a very quiet dead-end road, this home is across from a natural wildlife area. If you're a bird-watcher, you will be in heaven! The easy drive off the highway (about 3 minutes) is the ideal entrance to your vacation. The long quiet road is perfect for walks and bike rides. We accommodate parking for up to 7 vehicles.
The shallow shore line is so great for children, as they can go out more than 50 feet and play without fear! It's perfect for all water sports, including volleyball! We supply all the toys! Canoe, paddle boards/kayaks, tubes, inflatables, row boat, sailboat, etc, all conveniently located in the boat house. Please bring your own life vests, sunscreen, and beach towels.
A wonderful fire pit is perfect for the sunset show and s’mores (*some fire wood & flame included!)
With the West facing exposure, you will have the most incredible sunsets on the lake! Irogami gives spectacular sunsets every night! There are NO STEPS to the water, and a paved walk leads right to the dock, making it especially nice for grandma and grandpa to join in on the vacation!
The home is perfect for your large group, sleeping 19 people in beds. We also have a sleeper sofa for two that equals our 21 person capacity. There’s a queen sized air mattress and two trundle mattresses that children could use to sleep on, if desired. This is a 4 bedroom PLUS loft home. The upstairs bedrooms have balconies, and the master has a walk out deck overlooking the lake for your morning cup of coffee and evening glass of wine. There are three large newly renovated full bathrooms.
Our huge kitchen has two refrigerators for your convenience! There is a new KitchenAid dishwasher, custom built island in the kitchen, and a dining table with 8 chairs. The folding table and folding chairs can be also be used for meals. We also have two picnic tables on the porch just outside of the dining room table.
The knotty pine cabin is exactly what you hope for during your vacation get away.
The great family area in the lower level will be an activity/game hub for your group. We have Foosball, air hockey, Skeeball, darts, Wii video games, and more in this area! Rainy days will not disappoint! For the sunny days, enjoy out door seating with large, ground level decking and a wonderful level yard on the lake side for gathering and lawn games (we provide water volleyball too).
High end furnishings, linens, and decor will make this a pleasure for your vacation. Over 3200 ft of space for your group! Main floor washer/dryer included.
Please wash & dry towels, start dishwasher, and lock all windows and doors before departure.
No-smoking in house and cigarette butts left behind will forfeit deposit.
*Please no sidewalk chalk.
After our years of renting for our own vacation, we believe we have created the ideal vacation home for you! As we also live on Lake Irogami, we offer service second-to-none. We aim to make your stay a five star experience!
We will typically be there to check you in and will provide the door pass code and WiFi password.
There is a insurance protection plan that will be added once you start your booking process. This will give both parties extra protection, and will cover up to $5,000 of accident coverage.

Wautoma WI in Waushara County is a great central location! It’s just 45 minutes to the Oshkosh/Fox Valley area (PERFECT FOR EAA!) and is a great vacation town! Silvercryst Supper Club and Moose Inn are just minutes from this home, and are famous for their food! There is a golf course just down the road. Downtown Wautoma is full of quaint little shops and restaurants, candy store, museum, etc. Make sure you stop by Milty Wilty, a landmark for over 70 years, with old fashioned ice cream and 50's style decor and food!
