Great property

We really enjoyed our stay here! We went out on the canoe in the morning and it was so quiet and peaceful out there. The lake did get busier later in the afternoon with jet skiers and water skiers, people fishing etc. The ducks and chickens on the property were a nice surprise:) My son loved that. We will recommend this property to our friends and family!

Brett’s on the Lake

Brett’s home overlooks a pretty lake in a small village. The yard and view are wonderful. Brett provides lots of camp chairs, made for relaxing and soaking in the view. The kitchen and common areas are spacious. There are 1.5 baths and a washer and dryer, which we appreciated. Furnishings are casual, making it a great place for families.

Overwhelming positive experience!

Our family enjoyed our stay. We enjoyed fishing from the shore and from the paddle boats. The neighborhood was quiet. I was really impressed with all of the extras like bags chairs, flotation vests, fire wood, soaps, paper products, and even coffee, tea, and hot chocolate! Great communication with the host! Wonderful experience!

Lake getaway

We enjoyed ourselves, beautiful view of lake. Downside was the hill to the lake and lifting the boat and paddle boat over rocks to get into the water. Stairs down the hill and to have a smooth flat area on the shore to pull the boat into the water would be a plus.

Loved it!

We love Wisconsin! We had a short stay but enjoyed every minute. The property is spotless and has everything you might need. There’s a very picturesque view of the lake. The surrounding areas are all rolling hills, a rather gorgeous site. The town is very tiny but does offer 1 restaurant. It was exactly what we were looking for. Thanks for having us!
