Great place!

We brought our 3 teenage boys (who are not easy to please), and everybody had a wonderful time. The place is incredibly clean and the woodworking all around the house and trails is beautiful. Every night we had a fire by the river with drinks and listened to the sounds of nature. We saw deer, pelicans, frogs, etc. The boys caught a ton of fish each evening. We went to the Dells for a day, which is only about an hour away. Downtown Jefferson is also a cool little area The hosts are wonderful people who make sure your stay is great, but you really also don't even know that they are there. We have rented places twice a summer for the past 10-12 years and this was easily one of the best locations for the price.

Wonderful place

Exceeded our expectations for a weekend anniversary getaway. Thoughtfulness and great attention to detail in all aspects. The interior is beautiful, the pictures don't really do it justice. And the outdoors, with the river and trails and cabinette, were just as nice. This is a really special place and Rebecca and Michael were great hosts.

Spacious and lovely

Wow, this place is a gem! The interior is spacious with so many thoughtful touches. The patio is beautiful, plus there's lots more to explore, including wooded trails, a seating area and fire ring on the lakeshore, a furnished cabinette, and a fabulous treehouse. And the hosts are lovely people! We would definitely stay here again.
