Great for a quiet retreat

My husband and I stayed the weekend to get away from the business of life. We loved sitting by the fire, stargazing, and listening to the owl's chatter. The bed was comfortable, and the cabin was clean and cozy. We would love to stay again!

Coming back next year!

My sister and I always take our nieces and nephews on a yearly camping trip. We thought we would try a cabin this year! It was wonderful. Didn’t have to worry about other people being intrusive. The place is beautiful and secluded, the perfect getaway to spend some quality time with the kiddos. Thank you so much!

Another great vacation at Two Camps. We have stayed here several times and always enjoy our stay. The cabin is beautiful and everything you need is provided. The kids loved swimming and playing on the beach all day and enjoyed the peace around the fire at night.

Secluded cabin in the woods

We enjoyed staying here with our kids for a few days. It is about 20 minutes from town. The home was very clean. My kids loved swimming and fishing. The screened in pourch was nice because the bugs were bad. It was nice to have the washing machine and clothes line. Lots of movie choices for rhe kids. It was a quiet and cozy spot and we enjoyed staying here. The only things that was frustrating at times was our phones did not work the best but I could usually get text messages to go through. Overall a very nice place

Perfect Family Getaway

Our family of 5 stayed and had a fantastic time! We loved being surrounded by all trees! The beach is fantastic, fine, sugar like sand. Our two littles age 5 and 8 spent hours building sand castles and playing in the water. The kids' kayaks were great to have! Our oldest age 19 enjoyed floating in the water, spending time on the beach reading, and just relaxing by the fire pit! The cabin itself was great and stayed cool during the nights. Had everything we needed to cook all of our meals, and had the grill too! We spent most of our time out on the screened in porch listening to the birds in the morning and wildlife at night. We could hear the military gun range, but it was not a nuisance at all. The beauty of this property was incredible. We saw hummingbirds, deer, a lot of different birds, and squirrels. If you are a golfer there is a nice golf course nearby in Black River Falls, and also check out the Elroy-Sparta Trail Tunnel #3 if you are looking for an adventure. We spent most of our time at the cabin and enjoyed every minute of it! After 7 days, we did not want to leave. We hope to come back again soon!

Family get away

We had a fantastic time at the cabin! It truly was set back in the woods making for a wonderful secluded stay. There was plenty to do at the cabin for each of our kids. Our youngest could have lived on the sand beach playing all day while our older kids loved kayaking and everyone enjoyed hikes and campfires. It was also nice to be not too far from fun things that we were able to do as day trips in the surrounding towns. The only thing we were sad about is not being able to stay longer!

Perfect Family Vacation

Peg did an outstanding job preparing and sharing her beautiful property with our family. The cabin is fabulous; well stocked, very comfortable and cozy and super clean. Everything you might need is provided including kayaks for two kids, sand toys, life vests for kids, inflatable rafts, charcoal and lighter fluid, a charcoal grill, lots of different seating for eating and relaxing outdoors, insect repellent, and lots more. The pond is just a gem and makes the property into an all inclusive vacation. Don't hesitate to book this spot. Your kids will have fun in the sun all day long playing in the sand and water, kayaking, swimming, fishing, catching tadpoles, and roasting marshmallows in the firepit at night. There is lots of privacy and peaceful space as the cabin is set back from the road and there are woods all around. We will remember and treasure this vacation for a long time!

Fun and Relaxing

Two cabins was the perfect mix of fun and relaxation. Our kids swam all day and played in the sand. They loved kayaking and catching frogs. And when we weren’t joining them in the water, there was the perfect little shaded spot nearby where my husband I could drink coffee and read. It was just what we needed!

About the host

Hosted by Peg Konkol

Host profile image
Dave and I live in Holmen, WI. Dave retired in 2024 as a pastor at First Free Church in Onalaska. We are both from Black River Falls but have lived throughout the US and England. My dad gave me the cabin property 445 years ago and the Amish built the cabin for us 14 years ago. We used the cabin as our main residence for 2 6-month stretches in the past until we found a house to buy. I actually loved living there. It slows you down. Something really needed in today's world.

Why they chose this property

My dad purchased the property about 60 years ago. He had a Christmas tree farm nearby and built a beautiful home that you see pictured in the cabin. We hope to keep the property in our family as we all love vacationing there because it is so private and the swimming pond is spring fed and the perfect air conditioner on a hot day.

What makes this property unique

Privacy and seclusion! Comfort and quiet with a tiny sense of roughing it as the nearest convenience store is still a 4-mile drive. The aerated pond is this great big natural swimming pool that cools you off and is always fun to watch as you rest or eat on the front porch. The night skies, because there are no city lights or other residences nearby, are fantastic.
