The place was perfect for a friends getaway! The listing is accurate. It is very well stocked and very clean. The backyard was awesome with woods backing up the property and the quaint little “shed” for another gathering spot. We were worried that the highway was in front of the property but we couldnt hear much noise once inside. Communication with the owner was great, he was very quick in response and easy to work with. Will definitely consider this place next time we hit Wisconsin Dells!

The family stayed here while vacationing in the Dells. Location is pretty convenient to get to all of the things we did while here. The property was clean and communication with the host was good. We had 5 adults and 1 child and were able to enjoy our time.

Hidden Gem

Stayed her for a golfing trip with some friends, I must say the place is very accommodating to large groups of people. The property is unique with an outdoor bar, plenty of room in the backyard for games. The check-in process was very smooth and Gabe was cool about everything. Would definitely stay here again in the future!

Great place to stay!

The Secret Cottage was exactly as it was described! A lovely home stocked with everything you could ask for and more. 7 of us stayed there but 9 more family members stopped over for a cook out and there was plenty of room for all. Really loved the “shed” in the backyard. We had a great time and would not be afraid to stay here again!

Great place for family

Met up with my girlfriend and her kids and this was perfect spot close to Dells. Secluded with outdoor space in back. Even in the winter it was nice to stay. I would suggest adding a hot tub in the chill shed for extra amenity

Spacious, Comfortable, and Great Value – Perfect for Groups!

This property was a gem! With three full bathrooms and plenty of cozy beds, it was the ideal setup for our group, offering incredible value for the price. The layout provided everyone with plenty of space and privacy, which made the stay comfortable and easy. The outdoor area was a fantastic bonus—perfect for unwinding together after a day out. Our host was wonderful, with clear instructions and quick, friendly responses to any questions. We couldn’t have asked for a better stay and would absolutely book this place again. Highly recommend it for families or groups looking for both space and comfort!

About the host

Hosted by Gabe Albrecht

Host profile image
I love hosting guests and helping them discover all the Wisconsin Dells area has to offer! Having enjoyed visiting the Wisconsin Dells ever since I was a kid, I wanted to be apart of sharing this magical area with others. My love for creative arts is a good match in being a vacation rental host because it allows me an opportunity to transform the ordinary into the extraordinary!

Why they chose this property

The Secret Cottage is the best of both worlds...close enough to all the action yet just far enough for privacy and relaxation! My family rehabbed this house and transformed it into a cottage that you feel is the best kept secret only known to those who have stayed. Refurbished items repurposed into art and design are found thorough the property and make for a unique experience not duplicated in the cookie cutter world.
The Secret Cottage is for those that are searching for something out of the ordinary.

What makes this property unique

A huge, private yard with a fire pit area and "Chill Shed" allow you to have a real Up North experience and get outside and have a crackling fire. If the weather isn't cooperating (raining/windy) head to the "Chill Shed" and chill!
Three bathrooms is a game changer! More opportunity for everyone to get ready and less waiting to handle your business.
