Stacy N. May 27, 2025 08:28:51 PM
Summary: The house was lovely and well appointed. Happy to see a suitcase stand in each bedroom. Sunsets from the backyard or dock were amazing. It was a short drive to the Capital and the good vibes of that area, especially Saturday's Farmers' Market. It was great to retreat back to the serenity of the lake house and the neighborhood. I've never spent so much time at "the house", but on this trip we made it our intention to take it slow. What a wonderful property to do so!
Mary D. May 20, 2025 04:31:15 AM
Summary: The cottage is a great location, hiking trail, restaurants and pubs in walking distance, and short drive to Madison. It is well-furnished, comfortable and is located on the water with great views. My friends and I would highly recommend this property.
Arshish K. Apr 20, 2025 01:32:09 AM

Summary: We had a wonderful weekend here with family. A beautiful place to stay with gorgeous views of the lake. The house was super clean and felt like home. We cannot wait to go back again! Jennifer was amazing!

Summary: The property was wonderfully located with a beautiful view. It was also exceptionally clean and very well renovated. There were a few nice local restaurants/bars which made the stay even nicer. The only item was when I was told that we parked in the wrong place I responded and indicated the home was wonderful. I never heard back - just kind of seemed weird. I like having a personable connection with the owner but didn't necesarily feel that way here. But still a wonderful stay!

Summary: Stayed here with friends while we participated in a nearby curling tournament. The house was cozy, clean, and comfortable, with absolutely stunning sunset views over the peaceful lake. Easy to get to Madison, and super close to the Madison Curling Club. Would definitely book again!
