No complaints from our group. We had everything we needed. It was a great place for us to regroup, cook meals and clean up after long days at a local cattle show. Beautiful home and host was accommodating to any of our needs/requests. Would stay here again!

Rick was one of the kindest and overall best hosts we’ve ever experienced on any platform with rentals. Incredibly responsive in communication and with information about things ‘to do’ around the area, we couldn’t have asked for a better host experience. The cabin was perfect for us. Quiet, off the beaten path, but close to restaurants and other experiences. Definitely a wonderful experience and retreat. Even though it was cold out, plenty of wildlife made their presence known as well. Would be delighted to stay once again in the future!

Great home in beautiful location

Our family traveled to the area to watch our college son play baseball, and this was a perfect home base. The home was spotless and comfortable, and the host was gracious and hospitable. We really enjoyed the quiet setting, and watching the birds in the trees and feeders. We would 100% stay here again!

Graduation

A quick trip for us to see our two nephews graduate. Beautiful property! Nice location between Johnson Creek and Watertown. So much better than a stuffy small hotel room! Highly recommend this property for a peaceful vacation!

Golf Trip

Rick was great host! Property surrounded by the Wisconsin cornfields meaning very quiet and beautiful property. But also short drives to small towns as well as Madison and Milwaukee. Perfect spot for our 3-state golf swing - Wisconsin, Michigan and Iowa. Thanks Rick!

Lodging for Family Reunion Trip

In a single word....Perfect!!! We drove up from Ohio and rented the log home for 5 nights as a "base of operation" to attend a family reunion in Oconomowoc, WI. The house was clean, roomy, beautiful, and affordable (compared to what we would have experienced in a hotel). The host was great!
