Birthday

I booked this cabin for a quick getaway for my husbands birthday and it was even better than the pictures! This place provided most of our needs during our weekend, although the grill wasn’t working correctly, we made it work. Jeff was super accommodating and communicating was super easy and quick. My group really enjoyed our time and ended up adding an additional night. I would stay here again and recommend this place to everyone!

Perfect home and location!!

This place is awesome from start to finish. When we first showed up, the house was perfectly clean and much bigger than expected. I have stayed in plenty of cabins and homes before and this one was the best by far. Jeff sent an immediate text when we arrived to make sure it was everything we expected. It was better than expected! The yard was huge which made it nice to set up all of our games. The location is perfect. There are a couple of bar and grills really close by and, of course, the lake with plenty of public beaches and boat landings. Jeff helped point us in the right direction for all of those things as well. We will certainly be going back! Thank you again, Jeff!

Quiet and Comfy Getaway

It was a cute house and was really quiet. We found that it was very accommodating, but we did run out of toliet paper and had to run to the store to get more. We had some technology issues and couldn't quite figure out how to work the tv in the basement bedroom, the big bedroom upstairs and the radio both upstairs and downstairs. Overall though we enjoyed our stay immensely!

Sabbatical me time!

What a perfect place to get away. Not too far from Madison and the perfect spot in the middle of nowhere! All I saw were trees and snow! Jeff was great to work with and instant response if I needed anything. When staying in the middle of nowhere and needing internet to work, often it's slow. Jeff told me it was fast and he was not wrong. I had no issues working or streaming movies on my computer. My favorite part of the cabin was the wood burning fireplace. So rare to find and such a treat. I will bring the rest of the family back in the summer and enjoy the outdoor firepit. He had everything needed for cooking, sleeping, the shower was amazing and to top it off, a great, peaceful view. Cheers! Thanks Jeff!

Can’t wait to go back!

A couple friends of mine and I stayed here for a fishing trip, and while the fishing was slow, our stay here made the whole trip worth it. After a long day of fishing we were able to relax in comfort and shoot some pool and play ping pong at the down stairs bar. We had so much fun playing that we didn’t get to make use of the nice bonfire pit that we hoped to use. The whole place was very clean, the beds were very comfortable and all in all just a great place to stay for a family get a way. We will be back next year!

Great Fall Retreat!

Took a break from classes and traveled to this cabin for a fall retreat with a group of med students. The wifi was powerful enough to sustain us all studying/streaming lecture videos at the same time Saturday morning. Later, the yard was great for games. The trails served us very well for trail running and mountain biking. The rec room was a lot of fun. The firepit was very well designed. We had originally considered going into town to eat/check out the area, but we ended up spending all our time at the cabin because it was so much fun. The host is very friendly and accommodating as well, and very easy to communicate with. Comfy beds, plenty of pillows and blankets. Easy and scenic travel from Madison. 10/10 would recommend!

Great place to stay!

Lots of space inside and out. We had a party of 8 and there was plenty of room for us to spread out. Fire pit, nice large deck and grill outside and lots of things to do. Downstairs had a bar, pool table/ ping pong, arcade game and foosball. Kitchen was well equipped and the place was very clean. Not far from the lake and we had plenty of room to park both large pickups and boat trailers we brought. If you're boating it's great to rent a slip locally and just have the trailer on the property. Nice quiet neighborhood. Highly recommend!

Watch out for surprise charges after your stay

Overall, our stay was fine. However, there are a few items that need to be corrected in the description. First off, the game room, downstairs, is unfinished. There are stools for a bar, but no actual bar. They have a pool table but all of the queue sticks are broken. They also have a ping pong table that goes over the pool table, but the net and the ping-pong paddles are broken. Luckily, we purchased the insurance, because we were charged for things that we never did. We did accidentally dent one of the refrigerator doors but got charge for both being dented at a price of $2864. The amount Jeff claimed was $1688. 60. We also got charged for another door damage that we have no idea what Jeff is talking about. He said the door had to be replaced at $500 original amount but he claimed $275. Then he said that we did wall damage. The only damage that was done was putting up a baby gate going downstairs into the rec area. All that was needed, as the wall was not finished, was some spackle and some paint, however the wall damage was listed at $200,000 and the amount claimed was $500. Note: with the insurance protection, CSA travel protection, the owner can claim up to $3000 of damages. Jeff claimed $2463.60. We contacted the insurance company and said that these were false claims. We ant to see hoots of what Jeff is making claims on. Be careful if you stay here. I believe the owner just wants to finish the rest of his remodeling, therefore, the ridiculous claims! We would not stay here again - claim scammer!
