The log home is gorgeous! It was so social to stay here near Christmas time everything was decorated and it felt like we were in a Hallmark Christmas movie for a week. Fireplace, baking cookies, doing a puzzle and relaxing. We didn’t want for anything she has provided absolutely anything one could possibly need. Was THE BEST experience I’ve ever had with a VRBO or AB&B. Thank you Kelli!

"Our family had an absolutely stunning Christmas stay at this hilltop cabin! We chose this home for our annual holiday trip and to celebrate my mother-in-law’s birthday, and it couldn't have been more perfect. The host’s attention to detail is unmatched—from the handwritten note and Irish cream to the heated walkway leading to the hot tub (complete with towels and blankets right by the door!). The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed, and the beds were incredibly comfortable for all of us. It truly felt like a home away from home. We didn't leave the property except to run to grab a few groceries we forgot. We made some of the best memories and made so many delicious meals we enjoyed using the Blackstone as well. We can't recommend this place enough!"

The house was a great space for our annual friends weekend. Our group of 8 friends had a wonderful stay. The basement bar area was a great hangout space and the hot tub was a fun added bonus. The only issue we had were the wasps in the outside deck and patio area. They were everywhere which made it hard to hang out outside for too long. This was likely due to the time of year we visited, though. We look forward to returning to this house!

The home is beautiful, very clean and had all the amenities one could have wanted/needed. The owners were very quick to answer questions we had. Hot tub was amazing, it had a radio with Bluetooth hook-up and was nice and hot. We had a little trouble getting the LP firepit lit but once we knew you just had to hold the button in longer than expected it worked perfect. We were already talking about booking again next year!

Such a great cabin!

Every detail of our stay was perfect, including 4th of July decorations and a bottle of wine. The hot tub was fantastic. We loved watching birds from the balcony. The kitchen was big and well stocked. There was a cute little drive in down the road for ice cream. We would be happy to return!

About the host

Hosted by Kelli Brandenburg - 715-797-3345

Host profile image
Hi, My name is Kelli Brandenburg - Brave and my husband is Mark. I have been a Flight Attendant for 36 years and work for Delta Airlines. So, YES! I love to travel and have been all over the world but still yearn to see more. Mark and I enjoy horseback riding and have 10 horses, 5 cats plus many barn cats. We are strong community minded people and enjoy participating in community groups and helping others.

Why they chose this property

The ROSEWOOD LODGE is named after the street which was named after my deceased mother, ROSE. I designed this log home back in 2000 and it is accented with many items from my travels. I truly LOVE this home and hope you will too. Please enjoy this very special place.

What makes this property unique

Each room has a basic theme. The logs are 11 inch northern white pine. The log design is Swedish cope. Most of the furniture was custom made by a local Amish man. Many of the rugs I brought back from INDIA. The carved bears were created by a wood carver in northern WI. and he used one single 100 year old willow tree. The kitchen cabinets are maple and specially designed. Wishing you a wonderful stay.
