About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Retro 70s Cabin. Game Room, Private Pond, and River Access

From the moment you arrive at the Tomorrow River Time Machine time immediately slows down. During the day you will hike, spend time in the river, or lay in the hammock as you hear the wind blowing through the trees. At night, if you aren’t sitting around the campfire, you will pop in a VHS, stargaze or laugh with friends in the game room as the vinyl plays in the background. River has class 1 trout fishing and we are close to chain o lakes and Hartman creek state park. Come unplug and relax!

Living Room - Retro Comfort Meets Cozy Cabin

Curl up on the couch after you’ve chosen the perfect VHS to finish off the evening or have some friendly competition using the authentic Atari gaming system. Snuggle in as you bask in the wood paneled ambiance that is heightened by the electric fireplace.

Kitchen & Dining - Vintage Flair/Modern Function

Enjoy a fully equipped kitchen with everything you need to cook family meals, from cast-iron to modern appliances. The retro dining area seats 5, with décor touches that tie the whole time-travel theme together. Coffee lovers will appreciate the dedicated coffee station.

Bedrooms - Cozy, Colorful and Curated

Each bedroom blends nostalgic elements with comfort. Expect clean bedding, warm lighting, and pops of 70s color and pattern. There are 2 queen beds and 2 twin beds. Clothes hangers, closet and wardrobe provide plenty of space for your belongings. The spaces are designed to feel like stepping into a familiar memory—quiet, cozy, and perfect for recharging after exploring the property or nearby trails and lakes.

Bathroom - Clean, Simple, and Restorative

Fresh, bright bathroom with modern updates meet subtle retro touches. Towels, toiletries, and essentials are provided so you can pack light. The bathroom consists of a large vanity and mirror, washer and dryer, and a shower.

Patio - Pond View or Dining Oasis

Start your day off with coffee on the front porch overlooking the private pond. You’ll want to stop back out there in the evening as the sun sets right over the pond. Dinner is best served on the back patio area with a cozy portable firepit warming the space.

Outdoor space - Private Wisconsin Woods

This outdoor space has so much to offer:

- 1 acre private pond. Take out the paddleboat or kayaks and paddle around the pond. Or watch from the deck as the ducks make their rounds.
- River Access. The Tomorrow River goes right along the property and we have 2 kayaks available. We also have a few fishing poles.
- Firepit and outdoor games. Along with the portable firepit, there is an in ground firepit on a different part of the yard. Enjoy time by the fire while playing connect 4, cornhole, or ladder golf.
-Large yard. This place has a very large yard so you will definitely have space for any activities you may want. During the summer, relax in the 2 hammocks while listening to the birds. During the winter, grab a sled and race down the hill.

Some things to note PLEASE READ:

While we have an incredible space to offer, there are some things to be aware of.

1. Being that this home is tucked so far away in the woods, sometimes bugs can find their way into the house and garage. We do our best to mitigate them, but you still may see a few occasionally.

2. This home is extremely peaceful because it is so tucked away, however be aware that there is a train that goes through about 2 miles away and you may hear it on a calm day/night.

3. The home is small. Only about 850 square feet. If you have 6 people you will definitely be cozy :) the game room does provide quite a bit of extra space though!

4. No WiFi or smart TV. Our goal with this property is to provide a space where you can step back in time and really connect with each other. For this reason we do not have WiFi. The TV only plays VHS tapes, and we do have a great selection of them!
The cabin is air-conditioned and features a kitchen with a refrigerator, an oven, a microwave, and a stovetop. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.
