About this property

Waterfront Getaway: Kayaks, fishing, game room, fire pit, gathering room…

Welcome to Rock-n-Kosh Bungalow — a peaceful riverfront escape where families and friends come to relax, reconnect, and make lifelong memories together.

Tucked along a quiet “no wake” section of the Rock River near Lake Koshkonong, our 3,000 sq ft bungalow offers the perfect balance of nature, comfort, and fun — with the feeling of being away from it all while still close to town.

✨ Sleeps 12 comfortably
✨ 4 bedrooms | 2.5 baths
✨ Private pier & waterfront views
✨ Eagle’s Nest Lodge gathering space
✨ Kayaks, canoe & paddleboard
✨ Game room, fire pit & outdoor games
✨ Fishing, biking & nearby trails

Guests love spending mornings on the sun porch with coffee, afternoons kayaking or fishing from the pier, and evenings gathered around the fire pit under the Wisconsin stars.

The favorite spot for many is the Eagle’s Nest Lodge above the garage — a cozy hangout space with a bar, jukebox, TV, games, and balcony views where you may even spot bald eagles soaring over the river.

Inside the garage game room, you’ll find ping pong, air hockey, arcade games, Xbox, darts, and more — plenty to keep kids, teens, and adults entertained.

Bring your own boat or rent one nearby to explore beautiful Lake Koshkonong for boating, tubing, skiing, and swimming. Prefer to stay on land? Enjoy nearby biking trails, golf, beaches, parks, shopping, and small-town charm.

One guest described it perfectly:

“If you are looking for a riverside getaway with plenty of amenities and the convenience of being ‘in town’ with an ‘out of town’ feel… this is the place for you!”

Whether you’re planning a family vacation, couples retreat, girls’ weekend, fishing trip, family reunion, attending a wedding, a getaway with friends, or golfing trip…Rock-n-Kosh Bungalow is the kind of place you will want to return to year after year.

About the host

Hosted by Twila Garza

Host profile image
Robert and I have been married for 49 years and moved to Wisconsin, full-time, when I retired six years ago. When we were working, Robert was a branch manager for 35 years in Illinois and I was a teacher and then principal on the south side of Chicago and Aurora. We had a part-time home on the Rock River in Edgerton and sold it when we purchased a full-time home on Lake Koshkonong. Together we have 3 children, 3 children by marriage, and 9 grandchildren - when we get together it is quite loud!

Why they chose this property

The Bungalow is our second home which is used by family, friends, and guests such as yourself. We chose this home because it is on calm water, has spacious rooms, an abundance of local outdoor water and land activities, and many restaurants. Both of us truly enjoy traveling and we only stay in vacation rentals. We have had the privilege of staying in over 30+ vacation rentals – all of them were very unique.

We have a favor to ask. After checking out, could you please leave us a review with VRBO? As VRBO hosts, we are very dependent on our guest's reviews, especially since we are new to the wonderful world of hosting. We would be extremely appreciative!

What makes this property unique

Our Bungalow offers many amenities for playing on the water and just hanging out with family and friends.
