Quick trip
This was a quick trip for me and my family just wanted to get away. The property was clean and had everything you needed or forgot. I love the area close to the Dells (30 min ride) and all surrounding lakes. We fished from the dock often and my son and husband went on the water in the paddle boat and kayak. Fishing wasnt great if you are looking for bigger fish but fun to catch small ones over and over. Would definitly go back. Thanks for having us!

Cute cottage great views
The cottage was close to my in laws battling health conditions. The owner has been a blessing with communication and early late check in for us. The cottage had everything you could ask for games kitchen was stocked. Everything was clean. We had 2 dogs with us it was perfect for them nice yard long driveway so space from the road. We loved watching the ice fishermen while we cooked and played games

Great location
My son and I were in town for some work, I am a contractor. This place worked as a perfect homebase for us while we’re doing our work, but it was so beautiful. I can’t wait to bring my wife back for a personal trip.

Vacation
I home was great, my husband loves to fish so it was a perfect places for him. My kids were all comfortable, but it could of been a little more clean. Sorry for the small complaint but overall I was very happy and the owner was very kind and helpful, I really appreciate the kindness, especially when we are from another state. Thank you very much.

Charming cabin for a relaxing getaway
We had a wonderful time staying here, making memories with our grown children for a week over the 4th of July. The cabin layout is very comfortable and the setting offers everything you need for a restful stay, with quiet neighbors and a peaceful lake view. The fireworks over the lake on the 2nd were truly epic (an unbeatable experience!) but the rest of our time there was relatively fireworks-free, which was appreciated. Friendship WI is a welcoming little town with a good local bookstore that has just opened up on the main street. We had a warm welcome at the Friendship Cafe our first morning for breakfast (they even had gluten-free bread!) and a fun happy hour at Los Morales Mexican restaurant. The one bathroom is small but very well appointed and comfortable. The kitchen is well outfitted, the grill and fridge are clean and roomy. The wifi worked well and accommodated zoom calls and a couple of productive work days. We thought about visiting a few sites in the area, but it was difficult (in a good way) to leave the cabin, where we played tons of cards at the new patio table, held an ongoing cornhhole tournament, and had fun designing our own t-shirts in our favorite room: The sunporch with comfortable daybed, smart TV, big table and windows on 3 sides. We did enjoy a couple of hikes in the Roche-a-Cri State Park, making our way to the gorgeous view at the top. Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us!

The perfect everything
I want to tell everyone about this place and yet I don’t want anyone to get to it before us. Being able to drink coffee on a dock and bonfires u see the clear sky’s were just what we needed. This place has everything you would need. Grill, bonfire pit, full kitchen, private dock, close to what’s fun but away from the busyness of a city life. Perfect for a couples get away to a family event! We will be back!
