About this property

Private “readaway” retreat. Enjoy quality time, unwind and reset. Dog friendly.

Unplug. Unwind. Reset. Connect with nature. Come enjoy our 700 sq.ft. cabin on 6 wooded acres. Fish the trout stream, hike, bike, swim! See hummingbirds hover at the feeder, watch for deer or bald eagles. The outdoor recreational opportunities are endless. Listen to the wind whisper while you sway in the hammock. Play in the treehouse! Escape to the peaceful pines and let whippoorwills sing you to sleep at day's end.

Bring your canine friend(s) and enjoy your own 1,200 sq. ft. dog park or walk the miles of backroads with your dog where they can find all the glorious smells of nature!

Let the kids run loose and explore the property, including the tree house! The creek provides a great family adventure, whether wading from one end of the property to the bridge or enjoying a refreshing swim where two creeks converge creating a personal spring-fed swimming hole.

Seeking solitude? You’ve found the place to let it all go and find your inner peace. Whether meditating on the creekside platform and welcoming a new day, climbing up to the treehouse for ‘yoga with a view’ or settling in with a good book and a roaring fire in the wood stove, the cabin provides numerous opportunities for reflection, synchronicity and connection.

We’ve hosted thousands of guests with more than 400 glowing reviews on another common platform. “Peaceful Wooded Sanctuary” has been in business for a decade, under the same name. We’ve hosted solo travelers, couples and families, each who find comfort in the nostalgic “quintessential Wisconsin cabin” feel that often reminds them of their childhood family vacations. Our guests have celebrated engagements, honeymoons, anniversaries, birthday getaways, holidays and vacations during every season. Sharing our little slice of heaven with others brings us joy as we offer affordable experiences that create memories that last a lifetime. We are not corporate. We are a mother and daughter who delight in helping others find their happy place.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.
