Delavan Lake is a quick drive from the Chicagoland area, just under two hours from the city and western suburbs. The lake is perfect for fishing, boating, and relaxing, with a maximum depth of 52 feet. Please note that as the summer season progresses, lake grass grows and water clarity can be low.

For boat rentals and dining, we recommend Lake Lawn Lodge and The Inn Between. The Watershed bar/restaurant is within walking distance, while Fontana is just a 10-minute drive and Lake Geneva only 15 minutes away by car.

Parking is limited to two cars parked tandem style. There is no room for a boat trailer. No smoking on the property. No pets allowed. No parties.

After confirming your reservation, please provide your email address so we can send an electronic guest rental agreement. This property enforces a 25+ age requirement for booking and occupancy, and is professionally managed by Elite Lake Rentals.
