About this property

Winter special, buy two nights get a third free, Ask me for more details.

Time to get away! Skyview is truly a dream home sitting 500 feet above the Kickapoo River. Sit on the deck with a cup of coffee or a glass of wine and enjoy the views that stretch for miles. Wave at the eagle or big hawk flying by and listen to the sound of coyote's as you close your eyes and drop into a deep sleep. We believe first and foremost in comfort, so the furniture will make you want to sit back and relax for hours. Turn on the bluetooth sound system, light a wood fire or play pool, darts or pacman in the basement game room. Hop on the treadmill or exercise bike if it's rainy outside. Watch storms barrel across the valley as they make their way to you in full view. Catch a trout in the nearby Plum Creek with easy public access and parking. Drive 2 miles to the canoe and kayak access on the Kickapoo river with a nice picnic area, parking and very easy access to the river. Paddle downstream from there for a lazy 2 hours to get to a public pullout point in Wauzeka on the Wisconsin river. All public roads in the area are atv friendly. When you get that cup of coffee or glass of wine in your hand you can ponder how the leaning tree became the leaning tree. If you are an outdoor person you will love Skyview in any weather. If you are an indoor person there is plenty to do inside to keep you happy.
If you truly need to get away from today's hectic world, come visit Skyview. When you drive the last mile along the gravel road you will start to feel the peace and serenity you are searching for. Our home features notty pine in every room, maple floors, granite counters, three fireplaces, a huge deck and a view that is simply breathtaking. In the morning there might be an eagle waiting for you.

Due to severe family allergies we respectfully ask all guests to honor our no pet policy.
Thank you for your kindness in respecting our request.

Quiet Getaway

This property is located in one of the most beautiful parts of the state. Many roads in the area have gorgeous views. One unique outing included a gal pal lunch at the St. Francis Hermitage Restaurant, Gays Mills (check out their website). Large bedrooms and remote location were a couple of the features our group enjoyed. Kitchen and lr get lots of morning sun, so in air conditioning season, pull the shades at night to help avoid sun heating up rooms too much in a.m.

Best Ever

We are a group of high school classmates that go somewhere ever year. With this group and other travel, I have stayed in many, many VRBOs. This was by far the best one I have ever booked. Not only because the house is gorgeous and so well appointed, the beds were wonderful, the layout of the house is perfect for privacy and the view is spectacular. None of us wanted to go home....would have called for another night if it hadn't been booked. Stay here if you can...the pics do not pay it justice.

Awesome place

The house was very clean and had ample dishes and cooking supplies. Very quiet and out of the way place. The deck was amazing to sit out and have coffee and enjoy nature. Craig was very easy to get ahold of and great to work with.

Quiet Getaway

My wife and I took my parents who are in their 80's for a weekend getaway. We appreciated the quiet and the beautiful views. Mornings are awesome with clouds in the valley at sunrise and turkeys gobbling in the distance. We ate in and just used it as relaxing time. Worked out well for what we wanted. Two bedrooms on main floor was key for my older parents. My wife and I used the upstairs. We used the outdoor grill one night. Aging and one burner didn't work but still did the trick for what we needed. We had a very nice time.

Our group decided to UTV over to the property and ride some local trails. Beautiful area beautiful home. It’s an amazing place for couples to stay as all of the rooms are private with their own bathrooms. Hoping to stay again soon!

Nice and Clean

Very nice place. The house is way better then the pics that’s provided. Very clean large place and the view is breathtaking. We relaxed and enjoyed every second of the house. We will book again and bring our family next time. The only thing I will suggest is putting in a hot tub. A hot tub would have made a great stay better. Thank you for having us. You deserve more then 5 stars and Thank you for providing a very clean place 😊

Great getaway off the grid.

It was a terrific home with many options. My husband and I were able to work a few days (great wifi!) while the kids played with the ping pong, pool and arcade games. Great big comfortable beds and decently equipped kitchen. It was quite a trek from another major city so had to plan grocery shopping accordingly. Wonderful time, able to explore the entire area.

Absolutely recommend for a peaceful escape.

This house is incredibly beautiful. We didn’t want to leave! The house is cozy, furniture is comfortable, and the setting private and quiet. Each suite having it’s own bathroom was a huge benefit. We saw deer, hawks, an eagle, and bunnies. We made a Holiday dinner and had everything we needed in the kitchen. One thing I would suggest is having shampoo and conditioner in all the bathrooms. One bathroom had shampoo only, and the others had body wash only. Also all of the darts were broken, so we weren’t able to play. Overall a wonderful stay! Would highly recommend.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The views are breathtaking. The kitchen had everything and more that we needed. Being six ladies, we enjoyed having 3 bathrooms but would love to see a full length mirror added somewhere. Wish we had more time to enjoy the peace and serenity.

Beautiful Views - great kitchen

We thought the property was beautiful. We planned making some fun meals together and the kitchen had all the amenities we needed and more. We originally had six people getting together but last minute two were unable to attend, so the kitchen seating with four stools worked well.

Wonderful property

The property is exactly as listed. Beautiful house, fantastic view from the deck. Everything was clean and working. The kitchen was well equipped. Craig, the property manager was very responsive to any questions and requests we had. He even delivered a gas grill for us to cook on. I would have no qualms about renting this house again.

Nice location

Nice location and spectacular views, House need updates of porches that are deteriorating. Some deep cleaning and light fixtures that need light bulbs, more plates and other serving dishes with four provided for six people and lack of a dining table with four places at the kitchen bar only. With a house to accomodate six people seating limited for dining.

Stayed here with our hunting group. This house has tons of room, was in the perfect location for us to access all public lands and was in a nice quiet spot. What a view off the deck! We will definitely be back again.
