We stayed here over the 4th with our family and then the next weekend for an adult weekend. This home was perfect for both groups. Super accommodating and we loved the new outdoor additions.
We stayed here for an adult weekend for my husband’s birthday. This house was perfect for our group! We had plenty of space to sleep and the house had everything we needed. Nice, clean place. Easy check in process. Would highly recommend it to friends and family.
Our family fell in love with the Nuka Lodge. The location is the perfect getaway for those seeking to escape the hustle and bustle of every day life. Our only regret was that we did not book a longer stay. The home is beautifully furnished and there is very family oriented environment throughout the home.
The game room is definitely a plus.

Kathy and her family were perfect guests with great communication. They left our home just as they found it, treating it as they would treat their own. I would host them again in a heartbeat. 😎
Was cool area & cool to be on the canal. We had our boat & docked it in the canal. It was shallow, weedy & tricky to park, but we made it work. Very fun lake! House was exactly what we thought we were getting. Would go back again!
We had a great relaxing time and the property was wonderful. Tina was very helpful and answered all our questions very quickly. We would definitely stay again.

About the host
Your host
Hello! We are Howard and Tina from La Crosse, WI and we love to vacation anywhere we can be close to nature. We both grew up in Wisconsin, and Tina grew up right here on Castle Rock Lake. She and her family spent many evenings and weekends enjoying being in nature, exploring the lake while skiing or tubing, and exploring the many great hiking and ATV trails around the area. We then carried on the tradition with our own six children over the past few decades. After raising our kids and now having an empty nest, we purchased this lakehouse for our large family to enjoy. When we are not using our lakehouse, we enjoy sharing with others. We love hosting guests at our lakehouse and look forward to hosting you, your family and/or friends.
What makes this property unique
