When the reviews say this is one of the most well set-up VRBOs ever, they are spot on. This place is exactly as advertised and we couldn't recommend it enough. Every VRBO owner should tour this place. It has exactly everything you need. It is also very clean and well kept. And the labelling and instructions are next world. A

We absolutely loved this property. It is very clean and comfortable. It's right off the highway but set back far enough that you feel like you are isolated. You can hear some road noise if you sit outside, but I'll take it for the view and comfort. Plus it's still wayyyyy less noisy than in town. Plan to be unplugged. There is wi-fi, but it cuts in and out which was not a big deal for us at all. We brought DVDs to entertain us at night, and it worked well enough to pull up google maps and directions. The location is fantastic. Easy access to many different little towns or outdoor activities. There was a deer family that visited the field every night. An excellent place for bird watching also. We had a rainy, stormy weekend and had beautiful view of the lightning show over the next bluff. We lost power for a second, but it came right back on.The heating and cooling was very nice. The bed was very comfortable too. We will be back. It was a great long weekend away from the City.

A wonderful break away from it all

Absolutely loved Crowe’s cabin. It felt safe, secure and homey. Two large thunderstorms passed through and the house just felt solid and cozy. Easy access to the Kickapoo river was wonderful and we made good use of the games and puzzles. A great stay!

Sister trip

The view! The birds singing! Deer, rabbits and a cute skunk way out in the field were all fun to watch. The cabin had everything we needed.Thee dvd player didnt work but Amanda quickly had one delivered to us!The beds were amazing! It rained and stormed almost all 5 days but we were safe and comfy. Cabin is spacious and has plenty of comfortable furniture for several people to lounge around. Played lots of games. Did some reading. Walked down to the creek several times to watch ducks and cows. 2 good restaurants in town.Wildcat Mountain State Park is beautiful.Ate too much Amish bakery goods Took lots of drives in the beautiful hills and valleys.Had a little emergency the 1st night and ended up in La Crosse at the ER. They were fantastic and took care of everything quickly. We're older and after this adventure we decided knowing a great ER isn't too far away is important

Very cute cabin well kept. You can hear bird’s singing, be careful of deer crossing roads. In a quiet area and close to canoeing, tubing, kayaking and close to a state park. You can also see the Amish going down the road in there buggy with a horse or 2 horses pulling it. Enjoyed staying there for 4 nights.

The perfect get-away

The cabin was lovely and the perfect place to sit back and relax, read a book, play games with the family or simply observe the beautiful surroundings including stargazing. It’s close proximity to so many wonderful outdoor activities. We kayaked the Kickapoo, biked the Elroy Sparta trail, fished a little, hiked at wildcat, even saw a bald eagle. We did not want to leave!
