Quiet Family Getaway

Perfect place for our family of 6 to stay while in Milwaukee for a week. The cottage was beautiful, surroundings serene, and while secluded, not far from places to eat or go. Our girls loved being outside and seeing different wildlife and we appreciate how well stocked the cottage was. Absolutely would love to stay here again.

We love this property- it was perfect for family and we can’t wait to come back! The waterfront is even more beautiful than in the pictures and our kids enjoyed fishing, kayaking and bonfires. Memories for a lifetime. The host is very kind and responsive.Thank you for making our vacation so special!

Cute property

Friends trip to celebrate birthdays. The inside is absolutely adorable and the fire pit was an added bonus. While the water had a smell to it, we understand that it might only be a vacation home and the water doesn’t get run that much to eliminate the odor. Would definitely book again-especially in the summer!
