About this property

Sunset River Vacation! Boat Dock; Pet friendly; Sleeps 9

The sunsets defy description in this waterfront cottage on the Wisconsin River. Originally built in 1896, a lifetime of memories will be created swimming off of the dock, watching the sunset on the patio or taking off on the snowmobile trail. Have a boat? bring it along! Put in in the nearby boat landing and tie up on the dock right out the back door. There is swimming off of the dock, grab a kayak, or throw a line to catch a bass.

After the fun, create meals in the kitchen, play carpetball outside, watch movies, play games or just watch the best sunset on the water. When the sun goes down, put some wood in the fire pit and enjoy the starry sky.

In the morning, while your clothes in the washer and dryer, try out the bike path along the river leading to a waterfront restaurant for lunch and dinner a short walk or ride away.

Whether in town for the Waterski Show, Golfing, Snowmobiling, or just visiting family, this location will be a great place to home base.

Host profile image
Your hosts are local and have owned the property for 12 years. We love the cottage and have shared many amazing memories in this cozy cottage that is well over 125 years old! We are glad to share it with you. We bought this property because of the sunsets and all the future memories we would make. We hope you will like it for the same reason. Have Fun!

What makes this property unique

The cottage is located on the water. It is 25 feet off of the water! The bunkhouse sleeps 6 with 2 queen beds underneath 2 twins in custom built sleeping bunks -- each with its own reading light. The master has a new Queen-sized bed. Sunshine? Go swimming off the dock, kayak around the river, play pickleball outside or enjoy some time on the patio. Take a walk down to the local pub and restaurant. Grill something fantastic. Bad weather? Play games inside, stream your favorite service on one of the three TVs, keep the kids busy with the gaming console or make a big family dinner. Croquet, Kubb, Bocci and more are available in the shed in the back. A washer and dryer, full kitchen and Heating/cooling will make sure you are comfortable any time of year. Wifi is fast and reliable. Parking is available for up to 4 cars. Owners are local and accommodating.
