There were a lot of things to keep kids busy from the fishing pond and pool to the game room and yard activities. We stayed during some very hot weather so the upstairs and game room were rather warm, but there were several floor fans to help. Robert was very good about communication throughout the trip.

The house and property were great. There were six of us and we had plenty of room. We thrive outdoors and there was everything we could have wanted to do out there. There is a lot of traffic noise and airplanes, but you get used to it pretty quickly. You are within 20-30 minutes or so many fun things to do, as well!

The Retreat: A Relaxing Oasis

We spent several days at the Retreat over the 4th of July. What a perfect property with so much to do! From the inground pool to the fish-stocked pond to the volleyball net to the game room, there are so many activities for everyone. And our dogs loved the opportunity to run through the manicured seven acres! Would stay again.

Great Weekend to celebrate graduation

Our family had a wonderful time to celebrate our grandaughter's graduation. Everyone fished, paddled around on the pond, played cards, relaxed in the hot tub, enjoyed an outdoor fire, let the dog run in the wonderful large yard, relaxed in swings... a great time. There is plenty of room in the house for people to be close together or have quiet time in a secluded corner. This couldn't have been a better spot for us.

We had a great time enjoying the pool and fishing pond with our grand daughter. Host was easy and available with information. We appreciated so many of the many details that made for a great stay (2 kinds of coffee makers, ridge in pool, comfortable poolside chairs) it was ideal for keeping lots of people entertained, with spots for late night fires playing games chairs) clearly had machairs.

ALL the amenities and space for a family gathering!

This is the second time we stayed at The Retreat. LOTS of space inside and out for our family to gather. Kids age 3-10 could not get enough of the heated pool and the adults especially enjoyed the hot tub. We added an 'exrra' and had a small family reunion one of the afternoons and the place was perfect for this. Game room such a bonus when it rained. We didn't need to leave the property but some checked out 7 Mile Fair. Communication with the owner was timely. I'm sure the family will vote to return to The Retreat in the future!

Awesome Getaway!!

This was a great location for our family's annual summer vacation. Our group of 7 adults and 8 kids loved every aspect of The Retreat! We spend hours and hours in the swimming pool and on the pond. We also enjoyed the fireplace, hot tub, yard games, hammock swings and relaxing in the spacious living room. Sleeping spaces were ample for our group of four families. We grilled out nightly and enjoyed eating on the patio outside the pool. The Retreat had all the amenities we wanted and much much more! We loved our stay and cannot say enough great things about this vacation spot. I am sure we will be back again in the future!

Very unique house nice to have the pool because it was so hot . Our grandchildren enjoyed the fishing and our dog had lots of place to walk. Had a great time thinking about staying there next summer if we get together again. Even the pool was very clean and the kids had fun fishing. Close to the main roads so the kids could drive back to Milwaukee for work . Very pleased with our choice of this beautiful place!

Wonderful Choice!

We just got home from a WONDERFUL long weekend at this 7 ½ Acre Estate! Our family of 5 had plenty of room to spread out. The turntable on the dining table was great for games and had plenty of light over the table. If we had cooked, the kitchen looked well appointed and the second fridge on the porch was handy for drinks. There were plenty of extra linens if you wanted to use a pull-out bed. There is a door that allows the first floor bedroom and bathroom to act as a suite, which we did for overnight.The boys enjoyed the paddleboards, but we were too busy out and about in the area to enjoy the paddleboat or kayak. The pool and hot tub were wonderful after a day of hiking and exploring.Very convenient location. Milwaukee, gas, groceries, and restaurants all reasonably close.

Great for groups

This place is a great venue for a family or friends gathering. For us not what we hoped for. We were looking for privacy and nature. Daily maintenance of property and pool required daily texts with owner who tried to be very considerate but still had a ton to do before opening for summer guests. Place is great for groups.

My family and I had a wonderful time at this property. Plenty of space for everyone to spread out, comfortable couches and beds, great hot tub and beautiful private property. My kids enjoyed the game room and we loved relaxing by the fire. It was also nice being able to have the dog along with us. The host was responsive and we had no issues.
