‘Happy’s Haven’ Cabin w/ Gas Grill & Fire Pit!
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (36)
"We had a great time! House was so clean and stocked with everything we needed. Would definitely stay again. Just adorable! I would recommend cutting the grass and storing your wood in a sheltered area. The wood was too wet to use-we had to purchase some & the grass was long with prickly vines on the stairs. The grass was long around the BBQ."

Amazing townhouse, amazing attractions, amazing city!
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (136)
"We rented this place to visit family in Madison and attend a ren faire. It was great as we were looking for a small place with a full kitchen to cook. Neat touches with the Alexa with song and light recommendations. We enjoyed the living room white board - played lots of Pictionary. Our group was myself, my daughter, and my sister. The basement den made a great third bedroom. I might recommend a pull out couch."

Beautiful Cabin On The Scenic Wisconsin River/Lake Wisconsin
9.8 out of 10, Exceptional, (61)
"This house was absolutely what we wanted. A nice quiet place to spend the evening while exploring the Wisconsin Dells area during the day. The view from the living area was peaceful and serene. Our son and daughter in law were staying with my husband and me. We had room enough that we were not tripping over each other or getting in each others way. The kitchen was very well stocked with dishes, pots pans, mixing bowls...everything you would have in your own home. If we ever decide to come back...

"Our stay at the Pink Acorn was amazing! Kelly truly makes her guests feel welcome. She left a sweet note and lovely treats. The house is stocked with everything you need and was exceptionally clean. The beds are super comfortable and have nice cozy blankets. Am added bonus was seeing rabbits and chipmunks in the backyard. Kelly leaves directions to walk to the beach around the corner and it’s a must do…and make sure to grab some ice cream at the shop across from the park."
