About this property

Luxurious Stay Spa Retreat - Private Hot+Cold Tubs, Steam Suite, Spa Services

Take in more than a six mile view of beautiful Castle Rock Lake from the private outdoor recessed hot tub on the huge patio adjacent to BOTH master bedrooms. We have taken the Day Spa concept to the next level. The STAY Spa Retreat offers something for everyone.

This private condo has all the day spa amenities built right in, with your very own massage and facial rooms, in which you can arrange professionals to relax and pamper you with spa treatments. Adjacent to the spa treatment rooms, just off of the Great room, is the unique Spa Suite that includes a shower, eucalyptus steam room, an indoor hot tub and a cold plunge.

*The Stay Spa can comfortably sleep 10 -14 people. After 10 guests there is a charge of $25/night per guest.

We discourage large event and parties because the condominium residents value relaxation and quiet. Thank you!

Great place. Worth your time if looking for a modem, maybe higher end experience on this lake. Great gathering space and also roomy enough to get your alone time when needed. Proximity to Portofino’s is a plus too if you want a boat slip. Really enjoyed this property!! Recommend!!!!

Great Multi-family getaway
A great property with lots of space and ways to relax. We were looking for a place that could accommodate 3 families, and it delivered. The kids loved being right next to the beach and the indoor hot/cold tub room, and the adults loved the massage chairs. The location was nice, too. Within an easy drive there was lots of activities like Devil's Lake and The Dells.

Diamond in the rough
Pros: The place was very spacious and clean, the beds were comfortable. We very comfortably had 3 families with a total of 12 people and could have accommodated more. The pictures do not do this place justice. They are on prime real estate on a corner lot with panoramic views of the lake. Lake is nice and shallow for quite a ways out from the beach which is nice for younger children, but then the lake itself also gets very deep (according to the depth meter on the pontoon we rented). Everything you could possibly need is there. We will definitely be back! Cons: There were lots of prickly burrs on the grassy area that the kids kept stepping on, the main level hot tub did not seem to work for most of the time, sewage smell outside on one of the evenings, no blackout shades in any of the bedrooms. None of these issues were a big enough deal to not come back. Very nice place!

Relaxing Weekend
My family and I stayed the weekend at the Stayspa. The house was spacious and beautiful with all the comforts of home. The lake was peaceful with a fun beach right next door. The spa “storm” experience was unique and the facility was clean and relaxing. Another highlight was our scheduled massages. Yes! The rooms are right in the house. If you have kids, a short trip to Noah’s Ark water park in Wisconsin Dells is a great time. It was only about 25 minutes away. Annie is kind, quick to respond and an overall delight to work with. This was a wonderful experience that I would highly recommend.

Family Fun and Relaxation
We were blown away by the level of luxury that this place had! The rooms were spacious and comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped. Great spaces inside and out for our family of nine to sit together and eat, play games and talk. The indoor spa was crazy-something none of us had experienced before. Well spent money for a memorable time at the perfect property.

About the host

Hosted by Annie Bachmann

Host profile image
At the Stay Spa Retreat, family, friends, and relaxation come first. Annie Bachmann, the manager, makes sure everything is just right for your stay. Her brother Fred and his wife Kiya built The Stay Spa Retreat and they all work together as a family team to provide their guests with a space that’s welcoming, comfortable, and special.

Fred and Kiya Bachmann love to travel, and after years of experiencing extraordinary spa treatments around the world, they decided to take the best of what they had experienced home. In 2007, they built the Stay Spa Retreat on Castle Rock Lake, Wisconsin, so guests could enjoy world-class relaxation without traveling far.

Fred, a second-generation builder of luxury homes, Kiya, a trained esthetician, and Annie, a massage and shiatsu therapist, all bring their skills together to make the Stay Spa something truly unique.

"We wanted to create a spa suite with all the things we loved most from our travels," says Fred. "Now, our guests don’t have to go across the world to experience Japanese hot and cold plunges or the eucalyptus mists of Thailand."

The Stay Spa Suite features hot and cold plunges, a wellness therapy popular in Asia that’s just catching on in the U.S. "It’s great for your skin and helps the body heal," Kiya explains. The design also takes inspiration from well-known spas like Sybaris in Mequon, Sundara in Wisconsin Dells, and the Bellagio Spa and Salon in Las Vegas.

Fred, Kiya, and their daughter Ashley also run Bachmanns Pools and Spas, a well-known swimming pool and spa business in Madison.

Fred and Kiya built the Stay Spa Retreat on a gorgeous stretch of beach on Castle Rock Lake—the fourth largest lake in Wisconsin—where guests can take in endless water views and the sound of waves crashing along the shore.

The Stay Spa Retreat is all about creating a place where guests can kick back, recharge, and feel completely at home. It’s not just about luxury—it’s about comfort, care, and a place to truly unwind.

Why they chose this property

"Our guests can enjoy the best of what other countries have to offer, right here in the heart of Wisconsin," says Fred. "We designed the Stay Spa to be a totally unique experience, so there is no need to go anyplace else."

"When we found a day spa that we truly loved, we never wanted to leave," adds Kiya. "That's why we designed and built the Stay Spa, supported by the slogan: ‘Why only go for a day, when you deserve to stay?’"

What makes this property unique

This idyllic setting is a short walk from a top-rated lakefront bar/restaurant, marina, beaches, and arcade. Take a day to explore the natural wonders of the Castle Rock Lake area, sample its wineries, or play a round of golf. Friendly shop owners entertaining nightlife await you nearby. You’ll be surprised how quickly it feels like home!
