What guests think
At Lakefront 3-bedroom cottage with private dock & amazing sunset view, guests highlight a clean, well stocked, comfortable stay with lake views, a private dock and fire pit, and convenient access to a nearby boat launch and local eateries.
Many appreciate comfortable beds, plenty of space, and cozy lake-themed decor. Hosts are frequently responsive and accommodating, and guests like welcome touches such as a coffee bar and a helpful guidebook; the location also works for Sand Valley golf, nearby beaches, hiking, and trips to the Wisconsin Dells. A few mention the dock being pulled in late season, minor supply or cleanliness issues, and neighbors who seem unfriendly toward rentals. Expect a relaxed, well-equipped lake stay with standout sunsets.

We booked several rounds at Sand Valley but couldn’t find room at the resort. We found this gem instead. 15 minute drive to Sand Valley. Efficient use of space. Great sunset views over the Lake. Local bar very close and 100% walkable. We made a fire in the fire pit multiple nights and watched sun set. Would be perfect for four buddies who want to golf but don’t need/want to stay at the resort.

Wonderful house, great location. Everything you needed was provided and then some…we needed to make a couple adjustments to our schedule and the owner was extremely accommodating. The dock was great and so was the fishing. Highly recommended and we hope to be back🙏

Clean and comfortable lake house with lake views right across the road (walk right to it) with private dock. Was not lacking any amenities, great water pressure, super clean, solid beds / comfy pillows, plenty of closet space, and kitchen well stocked with coffee bar. Lake is right across from house and multiple set ups to enjoy like the outside chairs/fire pit or open the garage door and rest in the recliners and enjoy the view! 2 min walk down the road was a great bar/grill with awesome home cooked food and a bit further down was a small store/gas station in case you forgot the coffee :) A mile or two down was a great coffee shop. The description was exactly as stated and if you just came with your overnight bag you were not needing anything except food if you were in the mood to cook. Grill was clean and easy to use. Excellent wi-fi Would definitely recommend this place and we hope to stay again - thank you so much for being super hosts!

We had a nice stay but it was foiled by misrepresented listing on private boat dock and enjoy fishing all year round. The dock was pulled the week before we got there and no one let us know even though I specifically said we were there to fish. It made for an annoying weekend of driving and putting in and taking out. Other than that it was a nice clean place in a prime location.

This was one of our best and most memorable vacations. We wanted a place to share with family that included water fun and relaxation. We had all of that and more. Brian was an attentive, caring kind host who made sure to include every detail. The home is beautifully decorated. We felt very comfortable during our 8 day stay. We brought more of our kitchen supplies than we even needed. They have every utensil including a corkscrew, potato peeler, chrese grater and measuring cups. They have about 3 fry pans and we did also use our cast iron skillet on the electric stovetop and on the big gas grill that is provided at the cottage. Our family enjoyed a week of boating, fishing, campfires, kayaking and floating on our tubes and rafts. The highlight was sharing the sunset views from down by the pier or from the Adirondek chairs around the firepit. We were respectful of the neighbors and they were all extremely nice. The locals guided us on where to go for great food and drink. We enjoyed Hoozels, The Mill, The Lure and 9 rounds of golf plus good food at Moundview golf course. There is also a list of activities in the binder at the cabin. We were sad to have to leave and go home, because we had such a good time. We know we can go back, but once the word gets out, we are sure this place will fill up fast. It is a gem and you will not be disappointed.

This sweet cottage provided everything we needed. We enjoyed making s’mores around the fire pit, fishing on the private dock, using the dock for our kayaks and fishing boat, cooking family meals in the kitchen, and visiting the nearby county park’s beach and boat launch. We had a great time!

We enjoyed our stay here. Cabin is very clean and spacious. Parking for 2 cars or one boat/trailer/truck. I messaged the owner a head of time regarding parking. We were unable to park the extra vehicle but the owner let us park on the grass as parking in the road is not allowed. As mentioned, the neighbors do not seem happy that this is a rental next to them. We were very respectful. Also note, the piers are taken out the first week of Oct. The boat launch is very close and very nice.

I had stayed here in January, which is why I booked it again for July. It's a great, clean house that is in wonderful condition. It has a great view of the lake & a yard to hang out in while enjoying the view. I would bet good money that I will rent this house again.

Location is perfect for a lakefront vacation. House had plenty of room for all of us. Enjoyed the use of the dock and built in bench, very nice dock with even a ladder to get in/out of the water. Short drive to campground beach if preferred.Had snacks, water, coffee station like listed and streaming services on tv was nice. Can semi-tell the neighbors dont like guest even though we were respectful. Some things to appreciate for next time: Extra folding table (use outside or in garage), cleaning person was still there at check in and had to let us in because the code didnt work. They do have a Ring security system attached to garage that faced the front yard/entryway which i didnt see listed in the house description.

We enjoyed our stay here. Cabin is very clean and spacious. Parking for 2 cars or one boat/trailer/truck. I messaged the owner a head of time regarding parking. We were unable to park the extra vehicle but the owner let us park on the grass as parking in the road is not allowed. As mentioned, the neighbors do not seem happy that this is a rental next to them. We were very respectful. Also note, the piers are taken out the first week of Oct. The boat launch is very close and very nice.

Location
Scenic lakefront setting with sunset views, close to a public boat launch, local bars/restaurants, beaches, and hiking; convenient for Sand Valley golf and roughly an hour to Wisconsin Dells. A couple of guests felt nearby neighbors were unfriendly toward rentals.

We booked several rounds at Sand Valley but couldn’t find room at the resort. We found this gem instead. 15 minute drive to Sand Valley. Efficient use of space. Great sunset views over the Lake. Local bar very close and 100% walkable. We made a fire in the fire pit multiple nights and watched sun set. Would be perfect for four buddies who want to golf but don’t need/want to stay at the resort.

We were quite surprised how cozy and well kept this house is. The location was perfect with the lake across the lake. With grown kids living in the area, this became central location. We will definitely book again!!

Property was great, and well kept. It was just under an hour drive to the water parks in the Dells. Fishing was good and having the boat launch so near was a major plus. The pass required for the launch also covers other near by places including the Wisconsin River launch that is 15 minutes away which was good because unfortunately our trip coincided with an algae bloom on Petenwell. There were some awesome hiking locations nearby as well.

This sweet cottage provided everything we needed. We enjoyed making s’mores around the fire pit, fishing on the private dock, using the dock for our kayaks and fishing boat, cooking family meals in the kitchen, and visiting the nearby county park’s beach and boat launch. We had a great time!

This property had a great view of the lakefront and could watch the sunset each evening. Had a great time fishing off the shore with family and friends. Would highly consider returning here again.

We enjoyed this cabin on the lake for a weekend with our adult kids. Nicely appointed, comfortable and great location with access to the lakefront for beautiful sunsets. Close to boat launch so we could be on the water in no time.

Location is perfect for a lakefront vacation. House had plenty of room for all of us. Enjoyed the use of the dock and built in bench, very nice dock with even a ladder to get in/out of the water. Short drive to campground beach if preferred.Had snacks, water, coffee station like listed and streaming services on tv was nice. Can semi-tell the neighbors dont like guest even though we were respectful. Some things to appreciate for next time: Extra folding table (use outside or in garage), cleaning person was still there at check in and had to let us in because the code didnt work. They do have a Ring security system attached to garage that faced the front yard/entryway which i didnt see listed in the house description.

Clean and comfortable lake house with lake views right across the road (walk right to it) with private dock. Was not lacking any amenities, great water pressure, super clean, solid beds / comfy pillows, plenty of closet space, and kitchen well stocked with coffee bar. Lake is right across from house and multiple set ups to enjoy like the outside chairs/fire pit or open the garage door and rest in the recliners and enjoy the view! 2 min walk down the road was a great bar/grill with awesome home cooked food and a bit further down was a small store/gas station in case you forgot the coffee :) A mile or two down was a great coffee shop. The description was exactly as stated and if you just came with your overnight bag you were not needing anything except food if you were in the mood to cook. Grill was clean and easy to use. Excellent wi-fi Would definitely recommend this place and we hope to stay again - thank you so much for being super hosts!

This was one of our best and most memorable vacations. We wanted a place to share with family that included water fun and relaxation. We had all of that and more. Brian was an attentive, caring kind host who made sure to include every detail. The home is beautifully decorated. We felt very comfortable during our 8 day stay. We brought more of our kitchen supplies than we even needed. They have every utensil including a corkscrew, potato peeler, chrese grater and measuring cups. They have about 3 fry pans and we did also use our cast iron skillet on the electric stovetop and on the big gas grill that is provided at the cottage. Our family enjoyed a week of boating, fishing, campfires, kayaking and floating on our tubes and rafts. The highlight was sharing the sunset views from down by the pier or from the Adirondek chairs around the firepit. We were respectful of the neighbors and they were all extremely nice. The locals guided us on where to go for great food and drink. We enjoyed Hoozels, The Mill, The Lure and 9 rounds of golf plus good food at Moundview golf course. There is also a list of activities in the binder at the cabin. We were sad to have to leave and go home, because we had such a good time. We know we can go back, but once the word gets out, we are sure this place will fill up fast. It is a gem and you will not be disappointed.

Beautiful waterfront sunsets! We spent three days on Petenwell boating and had a very nice stay. We kept our boat and trailer right around the corner at the County Park at a leased dock slip at night. We used the home’s swimming dock and we were able to keep the boat tied there during the day. It worked out great. The fire pit was a great place to spend time together at the end of the day. Everyone we met was very friendly and knowledgeable of the area.
