Anniversary Get Away

My husband and I were looking for a small quiet place to get away for our 20th anniversary. This little house was small, quiet, private plus close to Devils Lake State Park and restaurants/grocery stores. The trails around the property were a plus.

Tiny Home on Gorgeous Property

Greatly enjoyed staying on this property and exploring the acreage. Located a short way from Mirror Pond State Park, Devil's Lake and downtown Baraboo. Be religious about applying your big spray during the skeeter season.

The perfect place!

This cabin was absolutely wonderful home base for our for our girls weekend to Devils Lake area. We loved coming back to such a quiet, tucked away place that was still close enough to all of our adventures. The cabin itself was beautiful inside and perfect for preparing light meals and enjoying the beautiful prairie views (and mowed walking trails) or an evening bonfire. 5 stars all around and can’t wait to stay again!

Enjoyable, isolated stay!

Enjoyed our time here! Recommend arriving before sunset to allow for easier navigation as surrounding streets are not well lit. Host was very warm and welcoming and came out to greet us. The spot itself was nice, cozy, and clean. Appreciated that appliances and decor were high quality and did not skimp at all on quality.

Blissful private respite

Totally peaceful and quiet, with the exception of a Van Halen cover band at a nearby bar on the second night. Loads of trails so we spent the morning walking those before heading over to Devil's Lake. Coffee and Prairie Netflix to use were definite plusses. Sweet notebook to share experiences with other travelers. We will be back!!

Beautiful location, lovely pine walls, we live in small house, but this cabin could have been a tad larger. we were tripping over each other. extremely well kept, prairie outdoors is gorgeous, love the philosophy of the owners would likely return, emailing to contact the owners was a bit difficult especially when wifi didn't always work

Peaceful Getaway

My stay was wonderful! I love the tiny house and the property -- so lovely to watch the sunset over the prairie and explore the trails on the property! The tiny house is so cozy and has every amenity. I loved the bedroom and the bed was super comfy. John was a great host. I highly recommend staying here and plan to be back again myself!

Peaceful Private Getaway

Unit & property were better than advertised. Owner fixed "no hot water" issue promptly, which occurred after 9 PM...both were completely unexpected and appreciated. The paths through the prairie and woods were so fun to experience as well. Highly recommend!

Quiet getaway

Me and my husband loved this place on the prairie. It was very serene. We walked the trails in the forest in the back of the house. Very clean and stocked with everything you need. Close to so much hiking and restaurants. A very beautiful piece of property

Rejuvenating Tiny Home

I cannot recommend this tiny home enough! It was so perfect - stocked with everything you might need, very clean, and in the most serene spot. To hear the sounds of nature all around and to see the most beautiful view when you walk out the door or open the blinds was such a grounding experience for us. We hope to be back soon!

The property was just as described. We had a very restful and restorative stay. Unfortunately we were not able to walk any of the trails onsite due to a very rainy day, but enjoyed a campfire our first evening. Lovely little house and I hope we can visit again!

A Wonderful Oasis

A lovely little cabin nestled in a scenic spot. We loved the short hike in, thoughtful amenities and relaxing vibes. Didn’t get a chance to wander the trails, but loved the close proximity to Devil’s Lake, Parfray’s Glen, downtown Baraboo and the Dells.
