Comfortable and cozy house with everything you need for a relaxing time at the lake. Two families fit great. The views of the lake are wonderful and a great base camp for getting around Devils Lake and Baraboo.
Stunning views/ sunsets! Clean property with comfortable accommodations! Close to the ferry- excellent opportunity to explore both sides of the lake! Quiet/ serene and enjoyed the birdwatching too! Spacious kitchen and patio! Enjoyed our stay, thank you!
The property was clean, spacious, updated, and very functional. Plenty of seating, toys for kids and gorgeous views from inside and out. We spent a lot of time outside on the patio and the kids loved the sand box. The location was great and we used the ferry to get to devils lake often. Overall we had a great experience and would stay here again.
Lake House was beautiful and comfortable. Sunset gorgeous and fire pit relaxing and fun.
Yummy S’mores!
Hope to return when we come back to Madison to visit our grandson.
We came expecting a nice place but we're blown away with how beautiful this home is. It has a beautiful view of the lake and an abundance of wildlife around the property. This has been experience above and beyond anything we could of imagined. We wanted to go exploring but found ourselves wanting to stay in to enjoy the view and relax. This is a must stay.
My family and I had a wonderful, relaxing week at this well appointed cottage. The views of the lake and sunsets are spectacular, and the house is located in a great area. Enjoyed hiking and biking the nearby trails and routes. Cottage has a well stocked kitchen for cooking and is very clean. Would definitely rent again in the future.
We stayed at the lake house over the Thanksgiving holiday, and we are so grateful for the get away. The house had an amazing view that cannot be beat. It was clean upon arrival and the checkout process was simple.
The house is in a great location and close to many activities (hikes, the Dells, and great restaurants)
We will definitely be back, as we would love to see the area during the summer!
Throughout the years, we have stayed in many VRBO rentals all over the country. Hands down, this is the most impeccable home we have ever rented. Immaculate, comfortable, "senior friendly", amazing view, well located for day trips around the area, friendly helpful owner, and I could go on. We always enjoy going to new locations for each vacation we take, but we agreed, this might be the first rental that we rebook again next year, it was that positive of an experience.
What a beautiful, cozy home in an ideal setting. The view is stunning! My family gathered here from various parts of the country to celebrate Christmas. There was even a little Christmas tree for our presents. The hosts are wonderful! Might be making plans to go back in a different season.
My friends and I really enjoyed our stay at this completely renovated home. The wall of windows was great for looking at the beautiful winter scene of Lake Wisconsin. The complimentary bottle of wine was a nice touch. This is the cleanest VRBO that I've ever stayed in. It was spotless! There was a snowstorm our first night and the owner kept us up to date for when the driveway would be plowed. It was cleared well and in a timely manner. We didn't get a chance to enjoy the patio, but I plan on returning in a few months to do that!
My husband, our 16 year old daughter, my mother-in-law, and I all stayed here for 4 nights and had a great time!
The view of the lake is spectacular and the house is up a little on a hill, so it’s a little more private than some other places around the lake. We appreciated having a dining table outside to relax and enjoy the views, but it was awesome to be able to sit inside on the couch and enjoy the views too!
Everything was very clean and comfortable.
In case you miss it in the listing - make sure to bring your own toiletries (shampoo/conditioner/body wash) and seasonings (only salt and pepper are provided).
The host was responsive and very understanding (I accidentally broke one glass)!
I would definitely stay here again!
Absolutely beautiful! We had such a great adoption damily reunion at the lake house. Could not have picked a better place for our Wisconsin vacation. Thank you!
Perfect spot for a quick getaway. If you want to check out the surrounding area and have a nice spot to return to at the end of the day this is the place.
Property was clean and nicely updated and decorated. Kitchen was especially very beautiful! Family enjoyed staying here for 5 days. Kids loved using the ferry down the road!
