Great Cottage in the Woods
Perfect place for us to meet up with family members. Cottage was very clean and the two living rooms made it very nice. We were able to relax, and play games. The Grandkids loved the Jacuzzi tub! Everything was fantastic.

Great place to stay, very clean and plenty of space! The one and only negative was that there was a strong smell in the entry/kitchen area that was pretty bad, possibly the entry way rug.

This cabin is an clean as clean can get! Very well put together, organized and had all of the amenities we needed for our stay. Even firewood! We couldn't get the TV to work but Kim tried his best to help - I missed my morning news and evening TV as we unwound for the day.

Family reunion
Very nice house. It seemed to have everything. My nephew loved the whirlpool. The only drawbacks were the tv and internet. We were not able to get either. The beds could use mattress tops since they were very hard. Loved waking up to the deer in the backyard.

ATV week
Very well stocked with everything we needed. Beds suitable for kids, but not adult friendly. Limited wood supplied so if fires are your thing, best to bring some as we did. Limited parking but we made it work for 4 trucks and trailers. Beautiful deck faces woods were we treated to all kinds of wildlife viewing. All in all a great place to spend your vacation

EXCELLENT PROPERTY
We have stayed at many VRBO's and this one tops the list. We have stayed here once before years ago...and this time did not disappoint again!! This is a very well kept, high-end property right in the middle of what the Wascott area has to offer. We enjoyed a round of golf & a day out on the water with a pontoon rental from a nearby bar/restaurant. Highly recommend this place for anybody' to stay.

Wonderful stay at this great cabin! We usually camp but wanted a fall weekend of riding the trails but warmth and water at the end of the day. This cabin was perfect for my husband and I and our 2 teen girls. Kim was extremely responsive to every question we had. We will be back!

Mattress upgrades needed
The place was very cute and private and we loved the layout. Our only issue was the mattresses were all old and uncomfortable. It would prevent me from renting again though as a good night sleep is important.

Great place to stay
It was everything we expected from the listing. Very clean and spacious. We had four adults and two children for a long weekend and never felt cramped. The sleeping arrangements were great. We cook every meal at the house which was well stocked with dishes and cookware. Would definitely stay here again if it’s available the next time we head up north.

Rustic Northern Wisc. Getaway
We enjoyed this clean, comfortable rustic stay. The house was tucked in the northern woods of Wisconsin with a deck overlooking the an evergreen forest. The home included towels, plenty of kitchen necessities and nice sleeping arrangements for the whole family. This location is secluded but has lots of beauty to explore within a 45 minute drive.

This cottage had everything you need for a weekend away. Very clean place with all the amenities you could ask for. Having a grill on-site and firewood for the campfire was very convenient. Our group really enjoyed a local tavern being within walking distance as well.
