our group really enjoyed this home , it was nicely secluded on a peaceful lake and beach area , the home was super clean with comfortable beds , we enjoyed the campfire wrap around porch and fishing off the pier, we intend a return visit , i would highly recommend this home .
We had a great time on our trip! The home had a beautiful view of the lake and a large deck to sit outside and enjoy. Very clean plus a well stocked kitchen. We also enjoyed using the fire pit and walks down to the beach. Would definitely return!
When we arrived the place smelled clean, everything was nice, most importantly the kitchen had everything you would need if you were looking to cook most of your meals like we did. House was cozy, would definitely come back and stay here if I’m ever back for a music festival or snowboarding.
This was our second year here, and we loved it. There’s lots of space and separate areas for our teens and pre-teens to getaway, but also enough to do and space to do it in when we want to all be together.
The house was very clean, great fire pit and deck. Walk to the beach for the kids. Overall experience was very good. The only thing that could have been better is the water pressure for the showers.

brian , thank you for your kind review and input , i am happy you enjoyed your stay with your family , i have not had a issue in the past with the water pressure , i apologize for the inconvenience it may have caused ,
i have had a professional address the issue and apparently the pressure switch for the well did fail, causing lower than normal water pressure ,
the issue has been rectified , thank you again , and please consider returning .
Great house with lots of room and a beautiful view! The beach is right next to it and had a lot of room in the driveway to accommodate parking for 8 people. Communication with the owner was easy and he was very helpful!
Lovely home but inaccurate description of property
The home was lovely, comfortable, and well-stocked, but we were disappointed to learn the day before arrival that the dock and beach were not private, as the photos and description indicated. They are shared with an association of owners along the lake. Since this was a holiday weekend, and the beach is small, it became crowded quickly. Additionally, the lake was 80% lily pads with a muck floor making fishing, canoeing, and swimming challenging- not terrible, but inaccurate.

im sorry your visit did not meet your expectations , however the shared beach is stated in the property details on listing ,the beach did have more people than normal on what was a steamy hot july 4th weekend , the lilly pads have been more prevelent this year in all lakes in southwest wisconsin due to higher than normal rainfall, the lake district association does cut the lillys creating boat and kayak lanes on the lake .

Disliked: Listing accuracy
The location is nice, quiet, and secluded. Gave cute cottage vibes. However, the house had a musty smell which we later found out was coming from moldy water some live flowers were in (2 seperate vases). The flowers were fresh but the water and vases needed cleaned due to the mold. The beds were not very comfortable but that is always hit or miss at places. The water had a very strong sulfer smell and made it hard to have everyone shower since it would stink up the house. The septic alarm went off a couple times in our 2 day stay as well. Overall, the house was clean (minus the flowers) and it was a very nice location. The owner was receptive and did respond quickly when I texted. There was plenty of parking onsite which was nice however the beach area parking is at the end of the driveway and we kept getting blocked in. It was easy to ask the people to move their cars but just a minor inconvenience. Despite the challenges we faced I did really enjoy sitting on the deck with the view of the lake along with the secluded forrest feel where the firepit is.

i am sorry for the nuances you encountered , and very happy you enjoyed your stay , as explained in the check in instructions the home is operated on a septic tank and also a well system , the alarm is a early warning system to call for extraction service,and easily silenced as instructed, all well water does have a slight sulphur odor, mostly undetectable ,however after your comment we have completely serviced the entire water filtration system in the home , i thank you for your feedback, the issues have been corrected .
Great lake house with lots of included activities. The pictures do not represent the current condition of the lake which has a weed/milfoil problem (not the owners fault just not represented in the picture). The beach was private and nice. Overall great stay. Would stay again.
Our stay at this lakehouse was nothing short of amazing. The host was thoughtful, responsive, and made the entire experience effortless. If you’re looking for a peaceful, comfortable, and memorable stay, this lakehouse is truly a gem.
The house was exactly as depicted in the listing, well-stocked for all of our needs, and perfectly clean. There was plenty of room for 8 of us to spend time - both inside and outside on the deck and around the fire pit. The beach is at the end of the driveway and very nice. The owner was communicative and the checkin/out process was simple and seamless. I would highly recommend this property.
