Escape the everyday and experience the extraordinary when you book this fantastic vacation rental in the countryside of scenic Wisconsin. With a well-stocked game room full of board games, video games, movies, air hockey, and a dart board, you and your loved ones can be entertained and make memories that'll last a lifetime. Outdoor enthusiasts will love all that the area offers, from golfing, fishing, horseback riding, and cross-country skiing. Snowmobile and four-wheeler trails are just outside the front door.

Golf enthusiasts can enjoy courses at Northern Bay Resort, San Valley Golf Resort, and MoundView Golf Course, all located within 13 miles. Outdoor explorers can go fishing and jetskiing in Castlerock Lake and Petenwell Lake. Tour the area and try some Wisconsin cheese curds while you are out and about visiting places like Adams Country Petenwell Park and Necedah National Wildlife Refuge Visitor Center, or kayaking and fishing on Lake Arrowhead, all within a 16-mile radius.

Upon entry, you'll be met with a bright interior and a cozy atmosphere throughout the well-appointed living area. Relax and make yourself at home by resting on the plush furniture, streaming a movie on one of the large TVs, marveling at the high wooden ceilings, or sharing a home cooked meal at the formal dining table. Hobby chefs will love creating culinary charms in the sophisticated kitchen, equipped with ample cupboard room and a floating island breakfast bar. Comfortable beds in spacious rooms ensure that everyone will receive a wonderful night's rest from the day's adventures. Find the epitome of comfort in the main bedroom, boasting luxe linens and a lovely en suite bathroom.

The expansive wraparound covered porch is the perfect place to begin the day watching for wildlife with a cup of coffee. It's also the best place to sip a glass of wine and enjoy the sunset. Tell stories and roast marshmallows around the firepit while watching the stars come out to dot the sky.

Magnificent property!

We came to have a 75th birthday party for my mother. Family lives near by and it was the perfect place for the family to hang out and play outside or inside with plenty of room. Beautiful house!

GREAT ESCAPE

This home was fantastic retreat for our family. We loved everything about the house - cozy, quiet, spacious and it had everything we needed to make our stay more than pleasant. Loved the wrap around porch and enjoyed everything that home had to offer. Very happy with our 4-day stay!

A Cozy Cabin

We did not have wifi for the whole week we were there we did contact vacasa about the situation and they did say they would send someone out to fix the but they never got back to us about when they would be sending someone out and so we had no wifi or tv for our whole week stay but other then that the house was amazing and clean and we had no other complaints other then the wifi not working but everything else was great.

Weekend doing nothing!

Halfway point to meet friends. Location was perfect. Not near anything. Hung out by the fire pit and swapped stories. House was absolutely perfect. Only issue was one tv didn’t work. Made one phone call and Tammy had a new one installed in less than two hours. Will book again.

Location Wonderful!

My only issue is that I booked with Vrbo but the property was managed by Vacasa. Vacasa had inaccurate information regarding the wifi network and password and the communication from Vacasa was very slow and incorrect. We love the porperty though and would love to book there again but would prefer not to work through Vacasa as we are Vrbo customers.

Great Week

In a nutshell this was a fantastic home with awesome views, simply a quiet area with lots to do if you want to go find it. local establishments were great. My only complaint was the wi-fi did not work 90% of the trip, we did contact Vacasa, and the router box was re-set but still after that simply did not work. In and out all day, we used our sons hot spot to make it work. Does not take away from the week at all. Thanks for having us!!!!!

Great property near Petenwell Lake

Our family loved our stay at this beautiful home! We took advantage of the outdoor area by cooking out on the grill and playing some horseshoes and the golfball game. The porch is lovely and huge! All amenities are included. We enjoyed playing games and watching movies in the large basement. The home was clean. We had a problem with the Wi-Fi the first night because of a storm that came through the area. Someone was out right away in the morning and they took care of it! Happy with the response and care that we received. Our family fishes and the location was perfect. Hopefully will stay here again!
