Very quaint town of Merrimac, and the home is situated very near the Merrimac Ferry. We came to this area for the many hiking trails and beautiful views, let alone beautiful Lake Wisconsin. We were definitely not disappointed! The home is immaculate and newly remodeled with a huge deck in perfect view of the lake and awesome sunrises. Definitely a place we will come back to visit!

Perfect weekend stay

So nice, clean, and comfortable! Perfect for a home spot during a weekend of touring the area. Easy check-in, check-out, everything we needed! We ate at the Varsity Club and Candy's and enjoyed both. Sadly, the ferry was not running this AM when we hoped to check that out, but we will be back for sure.

Great experience!We spent the weekend with SIL and her husband golfing and biking the Great Sauk State Trail. We were very impressed with the layout, cleanliness and amenities at the house. Thoroughly enjoyed breakfast and evening cocktails on the deck, even got to watch a Little League game across the street! The neighborhood was quiet with little road noise. Highly recommend!!!

Family vacay

Perfect home base for a two-family vacay. Four teenage boys and two moms and we never felt crowded. Easy drive to the Dells, Devil’s Lake, and Baraboo. Beautiful views of Lake WI from the deck and a quick walk to fishing at Memorial park and ice cream at the ferry crossing. The house was very clean, stocked with basics, and communication with the owner was so easy. Highly recommend!

My favorite place so far!

Everything about this house was perfect! My fiance and I along with our kids had the best family getaway ever. The house is in a perfect location with everything you need for a great time no more than 20 mins away. My fiancee loved it so much she wants to return for our honeymoon minus the kids so we can really enjoy the lake and everything the community has to offer. I will definitely be returning for a second stay! 10 stars!

Great weekend getaway

We stayed there for 2 nights with our 2 kids and it was perfect. They got to share a queen sized bed and the beds were pretty comfortable! The owner let us know before checking in that there was an issue with the furnace and it was fixed very quickly before we even got there! It was so clean and well maintained. The neighborhood was quiet. The road its on seemed alittle busy, but you'd never notice it or hear it from inside the house. We will definitely be renting it again in the future!

New and clean, comfy beds, great location, quiet, can see the lake, which was nice. Not a big deal, but adding dishrags (rather than sponge) would be great, as well as am ottoman for the big, comfy chair.
