Plan your reunion/gathering now in beautiful rural South Central Wisconsin

The Oak House, located on Arington Tree Farm, is an upscale and luxurious home, with a beautiful and secluded setting. The open floor plan, exquisite craftsmanship, and top quality furniture serve as the perfect backdrop for a family gathering, or friend reunion.
We may be biased, but we're sure you won't find a home this beautiful, on a setting this serene, on this side of the Mississippi.

The Oak House is tucked away on 660 acres of rolling farmland, with open prairies, beautiful woodlands, stunning views, and multiple porches to enjoy a birds eye view of the sunset. It's a relaxing and peaceful retreat, where family and friends can gather.

It was built in 2004, and features all the comforts of home.

There are two master bedrooms, both with king size beds, and private baths. One master offers a whirlpool tub, and walk in shower. The other a standard tub and shower.

The other four bedrooms offer a king bed, with a private toilet and shared shower, a queen bed with a private toilet and shared shower, two full sized beds with a shared shower, and a queen bed with a shared shower.

The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you may need to create and serve a home cooked meal.
The dining room provides a beautiful live edge table, made by our arborist, using wood from our farm. The table seats 10. There is also a counter that seats 6. Extra chairs are provided throughout the home, if more seating is needed.

The spacious layout also provides 2 living-rooms, both with gas fireplaces, a craft/game room, a laundry room, a screened in porch, and so much more.

Outdoor enthusiasts can enjoy our walking paths, creek crossings, and run-ins with wildlife.

The home also includes a fire pit, grill, patio, basketball hoop, ping pong table, 2 fat tire bikes, and hot tub.

A large private backyard, surrounded by tall hardwood forest, provides the perfect backdrop for watching the sunset, bird watching, bocce ball, or singing songs around a fire.

The property is 5 miles from downtown Cambridge.
Cambridge, Wisconsin, has become one of the best kept secrets in the state, for outdoor recreational opportunities. In fact, one of the most technical single-track off-road mountain bike trails is located just 2 miles south of Cambridge, in CamRock Park.
CamRock Park also offers hiking, birding, and in the winter, cross county skiing and sledding.
Cambridge is also home to Lake Ripley, a wonderful lake, perfect for kayaking, stand up paddle boarding, or simply a day of swimming and relaxation on the beach. Downtown there are specialty shops, multiple restaurants, coffee shops, and the Piggly Wiggly grocery store.

Madison, home of the UW Badgers, and one of the greatest Farmers' Markets, is a short 20 minutes away from the property.
The restaurants, shopping, entertainment, and outdoor experiences are endless.

We love this corner of Wisconsin: the peacefulness of a rural home, with urban amenities only a short driving distance away. You'll be so happy and at home here, you may decide to extend your stay. Come and see for yourself. You'll be glad you did.

Welcome to the Oak House -- we hope your first visit won't be your last!

Annual Get Together

Oak House is a unique property ideally suited for family gatherings - this was our fourth stay. The house is roomy, well appointed, and decorated for the holidays. It also has access to nature trails for daily walks. The location has quiet privacy with quick access to activities in Madison. The property manager Rachel is very responsive. We highly recommend a stay here.

Family Christmas celebration

Rachel was very responsive & helpful with our questions. We look forward to coming back. You will not be disappointed if you choose to stay here. It is our favorite!

Beautiful fall family retreat

This was our second stay at this property. It is very clean and well stocked with everything we needed for a quick weekend getaway with extended family. The property manager anticipated our needs, and even dropped off an extra propane tank for the grill before we even realized it was low. We hope to stay again soon.

Best House.. ever!

We booked for our wedding weekend and it was the perfect house to host our entire wedding party. It truly put the icing on the cake for our entire wedding weekend. We couldn’t have found a better place! It was clean, had everything we needed (towels, kitchen supplies, etc) plus a hot tub! We already talked about booking for our anniversary some year and getting the crew back together.

Best VRBO ever!

This property is outstanding! Every extra you could imagine was found in this house. Plenty of dishes and cooking items and all in great condition. Sometimes vacation rentals are stocked with subpar pots and pans, and that was not the case here. So many extra towels and blankets that made us so comfortable throughout our entire stay. Little touches like boxes of Kleenexes and candy and snacks made us feel so special. It was nice to have so many different spaces to spread out and yet have a big enough living area and dining room table to all gather together when we wanted to. It honestly felt like we were in a jazz up version of our own home. The property manager, Rachel helped us with every single thing we needed. I could not recommend this property more highly. Thanks for everything.

The property is beautiful and was so comfortable for all of us. It has everything you could want. We really enjoyed our time together there, whether hanging out in the screened porch, enjoying the fire pit on the patio, spending time in the kitchen or taking in our beautiful surroundings. We will plan another family trip here.
