Cabin is very cute and cozy. Beautiful scenery. On a bluff overlooking gorgeous farm landscape with cows and deer. Very clean and fully stocked and supplied with everything you could need. Cabin is even better in person than online. John is a great host. Looking forward to coming back soon.

Beautiful and Secluded

We were very impressed with communication and with the cabin overall. John did a great job supplying the cabin with all necessities. It was secluded but also so close to town that you can easily get there for anything you need. We look forward to visiting again! Thank you!

Great place with a great view

I spent most of my time sitting on the porch and enjoying the beautiful view and weather. I way overpacked because pretty much everything needed was provided, including feeding dishes for my dog. Very comfortable, secluded, and quiet but close to Lancaster if you forgot anything.

Fly fishing

Came to do some fly fishing and a break from everyday life. Accomplished both, in spite of 90 degree weather. John was an excellent host and helped fill the down time with history of the area. Plenty of information in the cabin about shopping, sightseeing, restaurants in the area, etc. Slept great. Views were outstanding.

Weekend cabin getaway

We stayed in this Wisconsin cabin for the weekend and we wanted to be able to take the pups with us. Finding places to stay that are truly dog friendly (not everybody has a 5lb chihuahua) is difficult, but this place was amazing. John was very accommodating, while maintaining our privacy. The check in process was seamless and he kept in touch through text. The dogs loved it, so much to see and explore for them. The view was lovely and I enjoyed sitting on the porch and relaxing. We would definitely like to return, I bet the fall is beautiful.

Heaven on Earth!

There are no perfect words to describe this cozy cabin. It was our dream vacation. Everything anyone could need all wrapped up in a warm bow. The owner, John, has thought of everything, down to the tiniest detail. The peaceful property is truly a piece of heaven on earth after fabulous days of fishing, hiking and visiting the local sites. We’ve already book for a longer stay next Spring, which will make for a long Winter of anticipation. Perfect getaway for a working couple and their dog. Thank you, John!

Most of the enjoyment of renting a cabin to the public is meeting the people that come here. I just met the most interesting, respectful and enjoyable couple since I started renting. They were so incredibly thankful for every little thing that is just part of the stay at the cabin. I barely even had to clean up the cabin at all after they left. They even asked if their puppy could sleep upstairs on the floor next to them, most people would not have. Even though the weather did not cooperate they still caught 4 trout and were able to visit some interesting local places within a 35 minute drive. I can hardly wait till they return so we can have happy hour around the outside fire pit. She even took some awesome pictures of the cabin to replace the ones that are on the site which she said do not do the cabin justice. I rate this couple a 10/10, and only wish everyone would be so respectful and appreciative.

Weekenders

We loved the location. Lancaster is only about 8 to 10 min. away for dining or groceries. We chose to cook all of our meals and the kitchen was well equiped for that.The view from the cabin porch is breathtaking and mesmerizing. the cabin is rustic but in excellant shape. The fishoing was a little disapointing as the fish were on the small side and not as plentiful as other places we visited in the driftless area. John, was very helpfull in guidance to the area and responded in minutes to all our inquiries. All in, i would highly reccomend this place for a weekend getaway for couples or a family.

Great countryside cabin!

I booked Serenity Bluff cabin for my husband's 40th birthday. He loves to fly fish and the location of the cabin is perfect. John reached out prior to our arrival date and was extremely hospitable before we even arrived. He stopped by briefly while we were there and we chatted for a bit. Check in and out was very simple. The cabin was nicely stocked with all the basics. It's close to town (which is cute) but is out in the beautiful western WI countryside. Photos & documentation about the cabin, and town, were located on the table along with maps. And, the hubby caught his first brown trout (and a few more) in the driftless area! Highly recommend Serenity Bluff!

You'll want for nothing here.

The host was excellent. The cabin was very clean and it was stocked with any and every thing one could think of. John was very attentive and replied back within minutes and was super helpful on where to eat. The cabin was spacious. If you are tall expect to duck in the bedroom areas. Not a big deal though at all. Bottom line if you think you are in need of something other than food and it's not stocked in this cabin you just don't need it! And I've never met a better Host. Thank you John.

This is a very special place. It is so beautiful and homey in person. We walked in and it felt like we already lived there. We went to the Lancaster Trails and I proposed to my girlfriend after almost ten years of being together, too, which just makes it all the more special of a place to us. Thank you so much, John, for visiting with us and telling us about the area. It was a pleasure to meet you.Anyone thinking about booking this place should just do it, and preferably do so for at least three full nights. Our only regret is that we did not book more time. We really should have stayed an extra day or three.

Beautiful and Relaxing Cabin on a Bluff

A wonderful cabin located on a bluff in SW Wisconsin, which all the amenities of home. The cabin was complete with nearly everything you’d need. The owner does an outstanding job of making sure everything is an order when you arrive. The cabin is located only a few miles from a town. Great fishing in the area. Highly recommend and will be back again next year.

This was a great cabin with wonderful views. It was very entertaining sitting around the fire on top of the bluff watching the social dynamics of the cow herd below. And thank you John and Cinda for so graciously sending us the necklace we left behind.
