This was our 3rd year at this rental and it is consistently great. We (including grandchildren) went swimming off the dock and caught a wide range of fish (Walleye, Perch, Sheepshead, Bluegill). Pontoon rental was easy with Big Papa’s nearby. The house is always very clean, well-organized, and accommodating for our family of five.

Great stay

This home was perfect for a weekend stay on the lake with some friends from out of town. Location is perfect and you can't beat the sunset off the dock.

Family getaway

We had a lovely 6 night stay. The location was quiet and accessible to a nearby boat launch. The river and lake is amazing. So much to explore.

Nice place to stay on Castle Rock Lake

The house was nicely furnished and well equipped with the necessities. Having the ability to rent a pontoon right on the lake was a big plus! The hosts are very responsive and were easy to work with! The lake is beautiful and many good places to eat in the neighboring towns.

Great family experience!

This property was beautiful with the pines, lake and stunning sunsets. Outdoor games were provided which we appreciated. We towed our boat and truly appreciated the pier access and nearby boat launches. The hosts were extremely responsive prior to booking and during our stay. This is a great family property!

Great Place

A great place. We rented a pontoon boat at Big Papa's down the road and went to different beaches everyday. We also swam and fished off of the pier. The house is exactly as pictured; user friendly, and well organized kitchen.

VRBO at Castle Rock

The property was neat, clean, and our hosts had a welcome basket with goodies on the table to greet us when we arrived. The house was filled with amenities such as soap, shampoo, lotion, dish soap, games, coolers--just about anything we needed was provided. The listing is accurate and we had a wonderful stay.

Week Long Trip with Friends

Our stay on Castle Rock was perfect. The yard was beautiful and we were able to enjoy man meals on the wrap around deck, and played plenty of games in the big yard. The lake was very peaceful and provided many beautiful sunsets during our stay. We rented a Pontoon boat one day from Big Papa's, which is conveniently located 5 minutes away from the property.

Great Stay at Castle Rock

This was our first family gathering for four couples and a newborn and we had a great time staying at this property. The home is on a beautiful lot overlooking the water and there was plenty of room to accommodate our growing family. The host was accommodating and when we had an issue they took care of it ASAP. The family has already decided they would love to return and stay!

As described

We had a great stay at the Castle Rock Lakefront home. The setting was very beautiful and we enjoyed breakfast and dinner out on the deck amongst the pines. Our son caught some good size fish off the pier in the evenings. We were able to rent a boat from a local place and get out on the water - good times!

Exactly as advertised.

We had a pleasant stay. The house has been nicely updated. The owners did a particularly good job of providing a variety of amenities like dishwasher detergent, soap, paper towels, etc.. Everything that we needed was provided and so there was no need to run off to the nearest store and buy misc items. Really made for an easy stay and much appreciated.

Beautiful home on the lake

We had a fun, relaxing weekend and totally enjoyed this property's amenities. Kitchen was top notch with everything we needed. Pier was great for fishing and tying up the boat for easy fishing. Beds and living room furniture very comfortable. Lots of extra amenities and small details that made our stay great. The UNO game kept us entertained for several hours. A grocery store, A-F County Market, and Ace Hardware store 15 minutes away in Adams. Highly recommend the ice cream at Bloom shop inside the grocery store. Very responsive hosts.

Great Property

A friend and our kids rented this property in June 2023 and had an incredible time. The place was immaculate and the property is perfect for a lakefront. We rented a boat and enjoyed the time on the huge lake. Fished off the pier and enjoyed incredible sunsets on the lake. Just a half hour from the Dells, so we got to spend time on the lake all day and at drove to the Dells in the evening. The host communication was better than any other experience we have had. They reached out to us before we arrived to help us make the most of of our time there by offering suggestions that were in line with our leisure plans. I would highly recommend this property for anyone looking to enjoy a lakefront stay that is clean and comfortable, with hosts are genuinely interested in your satisfaction.

Extremely well furnished

I stay at a fair number of rentals and this one is the best furnished with items: nice towels, kitchen supplies down to tin foil, comfortable beds in nice sized bedrooms. Our weather was pretty bad with very unseasonable cold, wind and rain which made having the nice interior even more important. We were there to fish and did well despite the weather from the dock which we also used with our boat. My friend Mike landed a 5 pound northern from the dock. We were able to put our boat in the secure garage to save the hassle of covering it from the rain when not in use which was a godsend. Communication with our hosts was prompt and very courteous. We are thinking we may be back again in a year or two we liked it so much.

No AC

Well the AC was out for 2 days and we had to baby sit contractor's one morning while he tried to fix it which eliminated a hiking trip in the state park. Never did fix it so owner came next day and installed window units and portable inside unit. Did the best he could to solve problem but it put a damper on the weekend. Driveway is long and narrow which makes it hard to get a boat in and out of Driveway. Overall rating 3.5 star's.

Response from VrboOwner on 31 July 2024
Upon finding out about the A/C unit not working, we immediately called for rush service for the A/C repair. The repair service arrived within 20-minutes, and noted it was an electrical problem. We then called for an after-hour electrician, unfortunately, neither the A/C technician or the electrician were able to get the unit running that night. Multiply fans were dropped off at the house. The following morning, the A/C repair technician rechecked the unit and continued diagnostics, but was unable to solve the problem. I purchased 3-A/C units and installed them the following day. All the repairman had a temporary lock code to enter/exit home. Continuous communication was made throughout the repair. We tried to do everything we could to resolve the situation in a timely manner for our guests.
