Peaceful retreat in the woods

I had a relaxing, pleasant stay at this cabin on Black River Falls. It was clean, comfortable and secluded, but not isolated, as there is a house next door and others down the lane. Wonderful hiking at Lake Wazee and Black River Forest.

Holiday getaway

My wife and I found ourselves doing our own thing this year for Thanksgiving this year, so we decided to get away for a few days. I found this little gem, and it was perfect for us. Everything we needed, including kitchen utensils. We even cooked a small Thanksgiving meal . We will definitely be coming back in the summer to enjoy the river, and the ATV trails nearby.

Loved this property!

We loved our stay here. It was so nice to just be out in nature. The big windows gave us an amazing view of the river. So many birds chirping and bunnies! It was very relaxing. The wifi worked great for us! We would definitely come here again.

Mini vacation

I love taking my kids for a little vacation each summer and this year we stumbled across this cabin. It did not disappoint! We had such a great time! It was the perfect space for me and my kids. It was peaceful and relaxing and close to the other things we wanted to explore! We will definitely be back!

Perfect for a quick weekend.

My partner and I stayed here for a weekend while I was running a trail race. It was perfect for what we needed, beds seemed like memory foam and overall comfortable. Kitchen was functional in order to make some meals. There were a number of lady bugs/beetles inside but nothing that bothered us. It was easy to navigate to via GPS, Wi-Fi was fast and reliable and many channels to watch for those chill nights. We didn't spend much time there but there was a fire pit and plenty of seating outside for enjoyment by the river! If we are ever in the area, would definitely stay again.
