Quiet and Convenient Escape

We really appreciated how close we were to Madison and how calm/quiet our location. Having the lake close by was a great way for us to quickly relax/unwind after a busy day given our itinerary.

Peaceful cabin getaway

We enjoyed our stay at this cute cabin. Great outdoor spaces and living areas to gather. Comfortable beds. Easy walk to lake access and dock. The town of Cambridge is really cute, with great restaurants and fun shops. The hosts are fantastic and great with communication!

Short but enjoyable stay

We stayed here for three nights on a brief trip, just needing a place to stay with our dog. We had quite a bit of fun during our stay. The nearby town of Cambridge is completely charming. The Lake access is nice, although we did not have a chance to use it. The cabin is well appointed. Scott and Keith were very helpful in getting us oriented to the house and the area. We have talked about returning!

Family weekend in Madison, WI

This was a perfect stay for our family weekend stay in Madison. We needed a place where we could relax and bring the whole family (including the dogs) to visit our daughter in college. Really appreciate the communication from Keith on the property. Highly recommend this property for others.

Serenity by the lake

We chose this property mostly for the location, as we were visiting family in Cambridge and didn't want to drive in from Madison every day. This cabin is in a peaceful and beautiful environment. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare and serve meals. WiFi and cable TV worked perfectly. The initial walkthrough with the host was thorough and helpful, and communication throughout our stay was great (via text and in the printed booklet).

Fantastic!

This cabin was just the right size and location for us. Our group of friends was able to enjoy downtown Madison with an easy drive in and out of the city. We enjoyed the lake house cabin feel that you would normally get "up north" in Wisconsin. Everything was clean and stocked with any supplies / amenities we needed. The owner was very responsive and attentive. I would definitely recommend this place to a friend!
