Lake Geneva is a fairly restrictive STR market, as the rules were created so that the hotels and resorts weren't undercut. The city allows an STR to operate for only one consecutive 180-day period per 365 days.  A rental must be for at least two nights and may not arrive within seven days of the prior guest arriving at the STR. For example, if a rental arrives on June 1, the earliest the next rental could arrive is on June 8.  

I'm not saying it can't be done successfully, but doing it directly in Lake Geneva can be tricky. Reach out if you want to chat.
