Cozy

We enjoyed this cozy cottage for one evening. The cottage was equipped with everything we needed, fireplace, TV, comfortable bed, and stocked kitchen. Check in and out was easy thanks to the communication with the property owners. We enjoyed a local burger at Cow Tippers Pub, a delicious coffee from Wild Blue Yonder Coffeehouse. We would stay here again.

Cute Cottage with some great history!

My bf and I had a great little getaway before the holidays staying in this cottage with some character. We loved it's location to both downtown Mineral Point and to towns nearby to visit House on the Rock and visit Governor Dodge State park for some winter hiking. Overall it was a lovely experience. The hosts were wonderful and very communicative as well.

Wonderful location

Part of the reason this property was chosen was its distance to Spring Green American Players Theater. Our location was perfect for the restaurant and church attended.

Great location and nice historic home,

Fun stay in a historic building with very quiet neighborhood. Have never been to Mineral Point and found the area so charming and pleasant. We walked the downtown area in the evening and enjoyed the history of the town/buildings. Kitchen adequately stocked with utensils for home cooking. We could tell the owners are still working on some improvements but they have done enough to make it a comfortable and cozy stay. We hope to come again someday!

We enjoyed our stay. The house is historic and rustic. the town has lots to explore for such a small place. The Red Rooster was a good place for breakfast.

Peaceful stay in a historical home

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this peaceful neighborhood. The beds were super comfortable. The host was very responsive to our needs. The back door screen is broken and so couldn't leave the door open because of bugs. Cobwebs here and there. Otherwise perfect!

We had less than 1/2 of a toilet paper roll for 4 of us. We wonder if the wiring for the light in the bar area is up to code. Tornado warning was exciting. We liked the quaintness of the home. We don't want to hurt your rating, but instead improve the stay for future guests.

Very unique property, allot bigger than it looks, it was a very hot weekend and the window air conditioning had a hard time keeping up. Very well stocked. Would stay again. Plenty of room for a family or 2 couples.

Quaint, cozy cottage within easy walking distance of attractions in Mineral Point

The cottage had all the charm you would expect from an older building. It was clean and comfortable. We were disappointed that no wood was provided for the fire ring, but we managed to find enough dead twigs and branches in the yard to burn. The deck off the kitchen needed a good sweeping-dead leaves, debris and twigs around the patio furniture. The screen door had a large tear so we couldn't leave the kitchen door open. Other than these issues, our stay was pleasant and the neighborhood was quiet.

A Getaway at Shake Rag in Mineral Point

What a lovely cottage to rest and relax in after long days of classes at Shake Rag. Excellent beds - always the most important thing for us - nice kitchen. The weather varied from 90 - 55 degrees and the cottage was comfortable for the range.

Quaint property in the heart of Mineral Point

We loved being able to stay just a few blocks from downtown Mineral Point. Early warm weather had us wishing things had been cleaned up and ready on the outside of the property but it's understandable that in May in Wisconsin things may or may not be ready.

A Great Fishing Retreat

We were so happy with the property after a long day lf fishing the area. Perfectly equipped for getting meals together and settling in. The host made sure we had everything we needed to access the house before we got there regardless of me having trouble with lack of cell service while out for the day. Overall we had a great stop and would recommend the house to anyone visiting Mineral Point.

Lovely Spot in a Darling Town!

No pictures could do this cottage justice. It's charming, spacious, and cozy. Kitchen was very well stocked if you'd like to cook during your stay. The town was a perfect destination town with great spots to eat, shop, and walk. Couldn't have been happier with our stay!
