Nice place
We stayed for the weekend and the cabin was just what we needed. A nice cabin close to Montello. Was exactly what we needed. Very clean place. Would stay here again.
This was a comfortable, clean, modern cabin to stay in. We enjoyed our stay very much! The only drawback was the low water pressure and loud sounding water heater or pump or whatever it was after we used any water.
Great view and location. Off season so dock was pulled up and not able to take advantage of. Supper club next door closed and possibly opening at a later date under new ownership. Stayed with friends so really enjoyed the indoor beautiful bar!

Not much to do
Door locks didn’t work, all windows were left unlocked. Not much to do in area. Told by a neighbor using the firepit was banned & another neighbor would call the police.

Hi Karen, we truly appreciate you sharing your thoughts about your recent stay. Your feedback is essential to us, and we've relayed your comments to the homeowner, who would like to offer some clarification:-Due to the current dry conditions, outdoor fires are temporarily restricted for safety. Nearby residents have also recommended avoiding firepit use, and a notice on the refrigerator advises guests to check with the local fire department for the latest information on firepit permissions. Additionally, a folder containing house rules and essential guidelines is available for guests’ convenience.-As the homeowner, I was available by phone to assist with early access and guide you through the keyless entry process. Despite an initial issue with the lockbox, I remained on the line until entry was successfully completed. Additionally, I was pleased to accommodate your early check-in, allowing access a few hours before the scheduled time.-An unlocked window, inadvertently overlooked by the cleaning team, has since been addressed, and we ensure that all windows are securely locked before each guest's arrival. As the homeowner, I worked to accommodate your requests, and no additional concerns were reported after entry.-As noted in the listing, the property provides abundant opportunities for adventure—from hiking scenic trails and exploring historical landmarks to enjoying Fox Lake and sightseeing in the Wisconsin Dells. We encourage guests to review all listing details carefully to ensure the property aligns with their expectations.Thank you for your review. We're committed to providing the best experience for every guest and look forward to welcoming more satisfied guests, as seen in our previous and recent reviews.
All good. Pictures need to be updated to be more accurate.
The property was great. Everything we needed was there, and clean. The key box was a little difficult to get into but not a big deal. The reason why this was not a 5 star rating was that the cabin was not as pictured. The beds in the bedrooms were not the same(not as many as listed).. the layout in the sun room was different. The bar was different than pictured. The frig and table and chains were even different.... had we planned for as many to stay as it listed it could sleep we would have been very uncomfortable. Again... for us not a big deal, we didn't need all those beds. It was just not what we expected when we got there.. again none of that affected us.. just had to double check address felt like we were in the wrong cabin.
This cabin was only an hour away from home. Location and neighbors were great. Had lunch at the Bar a couple doors down. Great food. Wish we would have made it for the Fish Fry on Friday. We could tell by the photos the lake might not be great for swimming. We took the drive into Portage and swam at Silver Lake. They have Kayaks available for rent. The cabin was very nice and clean.

Adequate
Adequate if you just need a place to stay or for a place to eat and sleep while spending your days on the water. Nice location right on the lake. Key was missing from the lockbox upon arival. Management was quick to provide a key but it was her copy. Window behind the bar was unlocked. Didn't feel very secure. But we saw pelicans! Yay!

Hi Bryan, we’re sorry your stay fell short of expectations. We followed up with the homeowner after reading your feedback, and they wanted to share the following: We apologize for the mishap with the key but were happy to supply you with a new one as soon as you let us know. The window lock may have been overlooked by the cleaning team but we can assure all guests that the home and the area are very secure. Thanks for taking the time to leave your review!
The house itself was decent overall, but there were some issues. It did not seem like this house had been cleaned in between guest stays. Floors were not vacuumed and the whole house including the linens and towels smelled of strong cigarette smoke. The description of the stay says “No Smoking”. It was difficult to stay/sleep in a house that smelled like cigarettes.

Hi Alyssa, thank you for letting us know about your stay. We wanted to pass along the following response from the owners: "We are sorry to hear you were disappointed with your stay. We are not sure which of our previous guests was smoking at the property, but we sincerely apologize for this. We will be doing some deep cleaning to make sure there is no cigarette smell. We will also address the cleanliness concern with our cleaning team so nothing will be overlooked in the future. Thank you for your feedback and your stay."
We want to come back in the summer and experience this beautiful lake. The property was very nice and had everything we needed. There could have been a little more detail to cleaning, but overall it was a nice place.
