The Ranger Station is a great place to stay when visiting West Bend. The location gives privacy at night but located in a park with many available daytime activities. Close to numerous stores for any needed items. Also close to Old Downtown, an easily wallable area with many stores and great restaurants. It was our second time renting and will definitely rent here again.
A wonderful and quiet place to relax and unwind. The home is clean and spacious, with a large outdoor wooded yard. Convenient to West Bend and all the amenities of the county park. Our pup also loved being close to the dog park where she met many new friends.
This ranger house is in a beautiful location and with 2.5 bathrooms and 3 bedrooms plus extra space, it is perfect for a family or group. Everything was very clean. The location in the park/woods is lovely. Our only issues were that there was no dish soap or dishwasher soap left for us.
This is an annual event for us now. Everyone enjoys the disc golf course and the trails. We have also lucked out with beautiful weather the past two years and have spent hours around the fire, playing croquet and tossing footballs with the kids.
We had yet another perfect-weather weekend and enjoyed the firepit each day. Traffic bond has been added over the past several years, making it safer and more comfortable to sit around. Josh Hamm organized a Space Race Disc Golf round, hugely aporeciated by our family.
The items that spell "Welcome" were orovided 5 years ago and are no longer. We ran out of TP - no extra rolls.No kitchen towels, no dishcloths or facecloths, few hand towels. No bedding for the futon; no extra bedding at all, such as the blankets, throws, and couch cover for a pet. Also no kleenex was provided
It was comparatively expensive for three days. It is a well worn property but it was functional with beds for all. Make sure to bring all of your own provisions (food, toiletries) as you may not have them present.
We love this house for its convenience to extended family when we visit West Bend. Overall very clean. Beds are excellent. Feels like it needs a little hominess, though...how about some enlarged prints of the Wash County parks on the dining room or living room wall? We enjoy the park location!
Beautiful setting! My grandson enjoyed the swimming pond(except for the biting flies). It was very quiet and peaceful especially for a holiday weekend. I would definitely stay here again.
You should advertise it as “a cabin in the woods”. We didn’t know the area so it was all quite a fantastic surprise. Also let renters know that the park signs call it “the Ranger’s Home”.
Perfect cabin-like setting with simple amenities and lovely surroundings. Perfect for people attending events at Sandy Knoll. A few minor suggestions to share to owners : check appliances are in working order before renting . Wash machine, coffee maker and iron need replacement or repair. Would recommend as a cozy place to stay
My wedding party and I stayed here the night before my wedding, and they stayed the night after as well. The place is huge, clean, and easy to access.
Perfect for any size family or group and will definitely be staying again!
This was our 4th visit to the Ranger House, and we will be back next year! We come to visit family , bringing family with us.
And have enjoyed every visit.
It was easy to rent, find, and stay. I would definitely stay at the Ranger House again when in Wisconsin. Thank you for a good experience!!

Great family get away
The kitchen was well stocked with dishes and cooking kettles etc. The beds comfortable. It was a perfect gathering place for us. Privacy in the bedrooms and good group gathering space in the kitchen living room.
