Inside, you’ll find a spacious kitchen that blends old-school character with contemporary convenience. With its warm wood cabinetry, a vintage stove, and modern appliances, this kitchen is both functional and nostalgic—ideal for cooking up family favorites. Just beyond, the large dining table invites everyone to gather for meals, games, and good conversation.

Off the dining room, a cozy screened-in porch offers additional seating—a peaceful place to enjoy your morning coffee or unwind in the evening, bug-free.

The living room is designed for relaxation with comfy seating, board games, and a collection of movies, perfect for cozy nights in. The cottage features three bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms, comfortably accommodating your entire group. Each bedroom includes two beds, soft linens, and rustic decor that evoke the warmth of simpler times.

Wander down the hallway to discover a unique bar and lounge area—great for casual conversations or an evening nightcap. Step right outside to the back patio, where a charcoal grill, outdoor seating, and a firepit set the scene for memorable cookouts and starlit storytelling.

Outdoors, the clean sandy beach and private dock offer the ultimate lakefront experience. Swim, fish, paddle, or simply relax by the shore. The gentle slope into the water makes it ideal for kids and adults alike.

Roche-A-Cri Lake is a 217-acre gem with a maximum depth of 20 feet—home to Panfish, Largemouth Bass, Northern Pike, and Walleye. Enjoy quiet mornings with no-wake hours from 6 p.m. to 10 a.m. daily. And with the public boat launch just 500 feet away, your lake adventure starts right here.

Located just 5 minutes from Roche-A-Cri State Park, nature lovers will find scenic trails, ancient rock formations, and endless opportunities for hiking, birdwatching, and exploration. Plus, with ATV/UTV and snowmobiles permitted on all town roads, this is a year-round destination for outdoor fun.

Local favorites are within easy reach—grab a classic Wisconsin Fish Fry at Mo’s Pub & Grill or spend the day exploring Rome, WI with its fine dining, local brewery, bakery, and mini golf. Golf enthusiasts can tee off at Lake Arrowhead Golf Course or the renowned Sand Valley Golf Resort. You’re also just 30 miles north of Wisconsin Dells for even more adventure.

Need extra space? Relax & Reset Guest Cottage is right next door—available to rent separately for larger groups!

The main house was great, plenty of room for the family. Well stocked kitchen. The outside deck was a great place to hang out.
