With 10-11â ceilings and 1000 sf, this sunny apartment is the second floor of an 1860âs log cabin. Completely updated with new floors, paint, fixtures and more, itâs a perfect retreat from the city. Explore the adjoining 1,000 acres of state forest, with public lake and boat launch across the street for fishing and paddling. The adjacent trail leads right the Parnell Segment of the Ice Age trail and Mauthe Lake State Park. Unit not recommended for toddlers or young children.
This is our second visit to this quaint, cozy upper. We love the quiet location. It is close to the parks and bike trails. The hosts provide all the essentials to make your stay pleasant and carefree.
The apartment was very nicely furnished and equipped. We were surrounded by beauty. The stay was quiet and relaxing. The only down side was, we were there during extream heat and the two air conditioners were just not adequate to cool the place down at night. I'm sure this was an extream situation and not the norm.
My sister and I stay at the cabin over the weekend. We both wish we could have stayed longer. The place was quiet, private and easy to find. Everything was amazingly clean and comfortable. Our hosts have invested a lot into this property, and it shows. The cabin is located above the main floor, so you need to be comfortable with stairs. Keep this in mind when planning how much luggage to bring. The main bedroom has a comfortable queen bed and two windows. The other sleeping area has a futon in a smaller room adjacent to the bathroom. The futon was a bit firm for our liking, and could use a 3" topper. But it would be fine for kids or young adults. There's also a very nice sitting area with a large screen TV and skylights, in addition to a kitchen/eating area. We would definitely recommend staying here if you're in the Kettle Moraine area!
This property has a great location. Easy access to bicycling trails. The home had everything we needed for our stay. It was comfortable and welcoming. We are trying to find a way back to see the fall colors!
My husband and I had a short getaway. This place was at the perfect location for all the activities and places we wanted to go. The ice age trail is pretty much in the back yard, as well as, other trails. We enjoyed ice cream and burgers at hamburger haus down the road. The coffee house â3 sweets bakery and cafeâ was so good! We enjoyed exploring Fon du lac and Sheboygan. Went to a brewers game and explored Milwaukee which was not too long of a drive. This place is perfectly located to get to many areas and the owners are super sweet! I would highly recommend!
The apartment is a lovely place to stay at for hiking and skiing in the Kettle Moraine Northern Unit. Itâs cozy and clean, and the host is very welcoming and helpful! Will definitely go back for our next visit!
My husband and I are nature lovers who fell upon this property while hiking the Ice Age Trail during the pandemic. The former 1860's log cabin had been converted to a bar/restaurant since the 1950's and had been closed for 4 years when we found it for sale. We converted the restaurant into our forever-home and the former bar manager's apartment has been restored to a lovely cozy apartment just for friends and guests!
Seated in the middle of Wisconsin's Northern Kettle Moraine State Forest, surrounded by 500 acres of state owned land, this is a "up-north" getaway yet less than an hour to Milwaukee. Forest Lake is across the street, Mauthe Lake and State park are to the west, a snow-mobile trail is at the back property line, and the Ice Age Trail (IAT) is less than 0.25 mile away.
A very peaceful place on the Kettle Moraine Scenic Drive, we have acres to explore, great for mushroom foraging, lakes for paddling and fishing, horseback riding nearby, ski and snowmobile trails in the area. Restaurants and a few outdoor music venues are nearby as well. So much to do!
