About this property

Wisconsin Dells Waterfront Cabin

Enjoy the tranquility of the Wisconsin River at rustic Jacks Cabin. Just 100 feet from the back deck flows the river, where you can fish, swim, canoe or kayak, run in the sand or watch large numbers of wildlife. There are deer, turkey, fox, eagles (and many more bird species) to be seen. Smallmouth bass, walleye and pike can be caught in the river by you and your family. The cabin is just 20 minutes from famous Wisconsin Dells or Baraboo. The Aldo Leopold Historical Site is just down the road, and Madison is a short 40 minutes away. Sit on the deck and watch the river flow by.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Oh man. Jack’s Cabin is so cool! We didn’t want to leave. Everything was super clean, the accommodations were above and beyond. It was like staying at a family cabin. The special touches of the family pictures and story behind the place made it extra interesting. We’re already talking about coming back up asap.

Beautiful location on the Wisconsin River. Sunrise didn't disappoint. Lots of nearby attractions available but also enjoyed just watching the fish jump, squirrels leap from tree limb to tree limb, and the River just pass by.

Great place for our little family with 2 small dogs!! Lots of bugs but we were warned in advance, bug spray was our best friend. Great location, we were able to easily visit Devil’s Lake and the Dells. Cabin had everything we could’ve needed for our stay. We would stay again, thank you!

Cozy Cabin

The cabin was fantastic! It was perfect for our 3 day weekend. I was amazed at how clean it was and everything you need is provided. Dogs next door were a little annoying otherwise everything was perfect. We will definitely be back!

weekend getaway in Baraboo WI

the location and cabin were wonderful. The check-in process was difficult, and I ended up having to stay somewhere else the first night. The host, however, followed up with me late that night and I was able to check-in the next day.

A Little Piece of Heaven!

We stayed for 5 days from Duluth with our two boys. We knew we'd need the quiet of the cabin after the water park and adventures in the Dells. Very cozy, a/c was a big plus as it was so hot! The mosquitos are quite bad but not much anyone can do there. Bring your bug spray! I caught a 4lb bass right from the shore using a popper. I loved the family feel of the cabin, the pictures and the diaries. As a Master Gardener I was pleasantly surprised but all the grapes growing around!! We will absolutely be back!!

About the host

Hosted by John Love

Host profile image
This property was purchased by my grandfather, John V. (Jack) Cairns in 1944. I spent weekends and summers there from the time I was five until I enlisted in 1968. I lived there for two years from 1973 to 1975. My grandfather willed this property to his daughter, my mother, who willed it to her four children. The only one with any personal interest in keeping the Cabin was me, so eventually I bought them out. I maintain it as a rental to pay the bills and keep it up.. John Love
