ELITE Lake Real Estate

Lake Beulah

Lake Beulah is about 875 acres with roughly 10 miles of shoreline, a chain of bays and points just west of East Troy. Nearly all of the shoreline is in the Town of East Troy, with a small stretch in the Village of East Troy at Lake Bluff. The Lake Beulah Management District works on water quality, weed harvesting and lake mapping.

Who sets the rental rules

The shoreline is split between 2 municipalities, and each sets its own short-term rental rules. Share of shoreline is from US Census boundaries.

About 99% of the shoreline

Town of East Troy

County license, one rental per 7 days
  • Walworth County zoning, which covers the Town, allows one rental per 7-day period: a new guest can't arrive within 7 days of the last one.
  • A Walworth County license ($500 the first year, $200 to renew) and a state tourist rooming house license are also required.
  • Occupancy is capped by what the septic system is sized for or the state license, whichever is lower.
  • We found no Town of East Troy rental ordinance or room tax published online (November 2026). Ask the Town before you buy.

Village of East Troy

Check with the Village
  • We found no Village of East Troy short-term rental ordinance or room tax published online (checked November 2026). That does not mean there are no rules.
  • A Wisconsin tourist rooming house license is required to rent a home to short-term guests anywhere in the state.
  • Walworth County's short-term rental license and one-rental-per-7-days rule apply only in unincorporated towns, not inside a village.

Getting on the water without lake rights

The Town of East Troy runs the Lake Beulah boat launch (Wilmers Landing, N9330 Stewart School Road): two lanes, with trailer parking about a quarter mile from the ramp. Fees depend on boat size, and no launching is allowed from 11 p.m. to 5 a.m. Slow-no-wake buoys generally sit about 200 feet from shore under Town ordinance.
