It was a good stay! We had everything we needed. The restaurant on property does play loud music all day, but they do have good food!

Fishing trip

Was our first trip there, perfect place to dock your boat to go out fishing. Place was very clean and stocked with essentials you needed. We enjoyed the stay and very relaxing atmosphere.

Nice stay on the lake

We really enjoyed this location. Only 2 cabins, but a restaurant and bar next door. The bar closed at 10:00 when we were there, so it was nice for dinner, but quiet all night. Nice area to walk around and explore and nice to have access to a dock for the boat.

Short stay on Castle Rock

Good location to things in Central Wisconsin. Cabin/Cottage was very clean and had all amenities desired. Very quiet and even though next to a restaurant/bar, no issues with noise or crowds.

Great little cabin!

We loved this property! It was very clean and perfect for our girls get away. We had a great time at the bar on site and enjoyed sitting by the fire. We would definitely stay here again. Beds were a little uncomfortable but didn’t ruin our stay. Cabin was fully stocked and adorable! Thanks for having us!

Perfect for my handicap grandson. Close proximity to The Bears Den at the Point. Enjoyed having my brother Chef Mark right there. Cabin was very well equipped and nicely decorated.

Friendship Cabin

This cabin is cute; HOWEVER, there is a restaurant very close (on the same property) where music is played LOUDLY all day long. If you are looking for a nice place to relax, this is not it. This is unfortunate, as the cabin has a nice deck with pretty view overlooking the water.

This property is clean, cute and cozy! Although it may appear tight it most definitely is not! We had 2 adults and 3 young adults with and we were just fine! Our may purpose for this trip was to be on the water as much as possible. This property worked perfectly for us! A huge plus is the dock available for you to keep your boat in your whole trip. We felt very safe leaving it down at the dock!! Larry and Sue were so nice and really make you feel right at home!!

Not for kiddos

First, the cabin was clean, well stocked, and cozy. This would be a great spot for couples or a girls/guys weekend. The distance to the restaurant is a lot closer then it may seem in the pics, you can hear kitchen staff from the cabin. The restaurant that was there, as advertised in the Vrbo listing is out of business, and a Mexican restaurant is there. The cons, the restaurant is LOUD, live music on their deck, they had tables right in front of the cabin set up and each morning those tables and the grounds were covered in beer bottles and trash. That, i realize is a restaurant issue not an issue with the Vrbo host, but doesnt make for a pleasant stay. The property is beautiful, great views of the lake, I'd recommend this for the cabin itself being nice but the new restaurant made the stay less then ideal.
