Sunsets on the lake at Mill Pond Cottage-Pickleball, Water Sports, Hiking &more

** We have another home just down the street from this one. It is a 1 bedroom that sleeps 4, if using the pull out sleeper as well. Let me know if you want more info.

Located on the Eastern Shores of Lake Sinissippi, Mill Pond Cottage offers high-end comfort, stunning sunset views, amazing bird watching right from the veranda (eagles, white pelicans, herons, etc) AND swimmable frontage. Do as little or as much as you wish while enjoying Wisconsin lake living!

(Our house is within an hour from Madison or Milwaukee, 90 minutes from the northern IL border.)

Spend an active lake day exploring Sinissippi’s 2,800 acres with the home’s kayaks (2), canoeing (1) or paddle boards (2), or enjoy a cocktail and a good book on any one of Mill Pond Cottage’s 3 lakeside terraces. The upper deck off the living room has a gas grill and seating for a small crowd, while the lower deck off the Master bedroom has comfortable lounge seating and a smokeless, propane fire table. Smore’s and an open fire are enjoyed on the shoreline terrace! As the hot summer sun sets, our guests appreciate the partial shade offered by the beautiful, old Oak and Maple tree canopy.

At the end of a long day, COMFORT is king, and our home delivers with air conditioning and comfortable furnishings throughout. Our 3+ bedrooms are furnished with the highest quality lines, comfortable mattresses and extra pillows. The two 2 full bathrooms have extra bath/hand towels as well as body wash, shampoo and conditioner.

The main level’s Queen Bedroom sleeps two, and the twin bedroom, 2 twin beds, also sleeps two. The lower level’s Master bedroom sleeps 2, while the comfortable TV room is furnished with a twin day-bed, sleeping 2. The main level’s full bathroom is a tub/shower combination, while the lower level’s full bathroom is a shower only.

Enjoy dining in with the home’s well-maintained, clean gas grill, or prepare delicious meals in the full kitchen with brand new stainless steel appliances. The kitchen is well-stocked with many of the comforts of home, including a good inventory of pots, pans, gadgets, dinnerware, and flatware.

The laundry room is equipped with a quality washer and dryer and laundry detergent is provided.

A common theme in our guest comments is the home’s cleanliness. We go above and beyond to ensure our professionally cleaned home is perfect for your next visit.
