Spent 3 nights here for Muzzleloader hunting. Worked great enough room and very affordable place to stay. Conveniently located close to public land, nice bars, casino and Jimmys In Between.
This place is just beautiful. While the size is listed as only 600 square feet, it actually feels much bigger because of the loft/second floor.
The setting is in some lovely pine trees, and it is quiet and peaceful. A perfect spot for a couple of introverts like us to just be.
Thanks!
Quick trip North for side by side trail ride. Great location to local restaurants and access to the trail. Four people total with plenty of room to spare. Would stay here again. Very accommodating for early check in and we were able to check out and leave our trucks/trailers at property while we rode trails the final day.
One queen bed in the loft. Two single beds in room off the living room. Many amenities are provided, such as towels and soap. Unique animal pelts. Small but nice living space. We are usually only there to sleep and riding trails the rest of the time.

Cozy Cabin
The purpose for our trip was to ride the ATV trails. We stay in a lot of VRBOs to do this year round and this one was definitely a nice little cabin. It has all the things you need (towels, dishes, kitchen appliances, box fans in the rooms) to avoid packing the little extra things from home. Check in/out was very easy and quick,there was a lack of communication with the host staff, I had sent 2 emails, and one of the 2 was never responded to. They easily accommodate early check in if they can, which is A plus. The biggest complaint is one of the neighbors who made the stay less than desirable. We came home one night from the trail and he was shouting at us. This incident caused us to be Leary of keeping out ATV/SXS at our cabin, which created a little bit more running around on our end. As a result of this it was not an ATV friendly environment because of him. Be careful if this is also your intended purpose for booking. Otherwise, overall it was a nice little place.
It was great to get away and reconnect with our family and nature . ATV trails were so fun! Also the fishing at near by lake was amazing! The property was clean and very nice. The property owner was awesome! 10/10 would go again .
We went to ride sxs on the trails. The location to the trails was great. The cabin was nice and suited are needs.

Could use a thorough cleaning. Bath tub and shower needs updated. I have had high iron water in my home and it didn’t look like this.

Dispointed the television did not work, the DVD player also did not work. The lock on the back door did not work locked us out. Could use more table lamps. Enjoyed the fire pit outside. Not sure it was up to our expectations.
The only thing that confused me were instructions for sanitizing dishes which made think that maybe the water wasn’t safe for drinking. I requested a late check out and the owner was easy to reach and oked that. Very satisfactory

Perfect wind down
This is a great little cabin that you can sit back relax and just decompress. It's small and just right, it's not like you went up north and rented just another house, this place has character you will appreciate vey fast. the kitchen and bath were well stocked and the winter quite made for great sleeping. Will stay again.

Cute African Safari theme, tiny but roomy, had everything we needed for a comfy stay!
We were very pleased with the cabin. It was comfortable, clean and had everything we needed to prepare meals. We enjoyed bonfires in the evening, it was quiet and we slept well. The owner/manager was very responsive, though we had no major issues. We would recommend this our family and friends.

Good deal
Quiet stay....very clean; not a lot of TV stations....but enjoyed watching DVDs; jacuzzi a work in progress, but quite roomy. Not too far from La Crosse and quite close to Black River Falls, a charming little town. Loved the fully-equipped kitchen, which saved us a lot of money. Very reasonable price...would stay here again.
Very nice cabin for two adults and maybe one child. In great condition. I would suggest taking down the animal rug hanging up on the wall. Does not look very clean at all.
Was just right for coming back to relax, cook , and sleep after spending the day at the beach or golfing. We didnt realize you have to furnish your own toilet paper though and only had a roll and a half when we arrived. Othherwise it was nice cabin.

Cozy in the woods
We enjoyed our visit to this cozy cottage in the woods. The kitchen has everything you need including microwave. Full size appliances and kitchenware allow as much meal prep as you may want when the local restaurants are closed. Weather prevented us from enjoying lake activities so it was nice to curl up with a book on the sofa and enjoy the solitude and quiet.

Cozy cabin
We ( two couples) enjoyed staying here. It was clean, has a nice kitchen and is interestingly decorated. We liked that we could ride our ATVs from the cabin to the trails. Blake had turned on the furnace before we arrived and we really appreciated the warmth when we got back that night after being caught in the rain trail riding. This was our first visit to the area and hope to return because there are so many great trails and things to see.
