Rocky Glen Condo - forest nest on Baraboo bluff

One bit of change advised me by Vrbo:
Vrbo now collects from you the Wisconsin State and Sauk County and Town of Merrimac tax of 12.5%.
The taxes are on the room rate only...per night.
___________________________________________________________________
Unit 4 is perched amongst a canopy of oak and birch trees - coffee on the balcony in the company of leaves and branches over 2-stories from the ground! Unit 4 is one of eight condominiums in a building nestled amongst a mature birch/oak forest with glimpses over the Lake Wisconsin valley. Casual, whimsical, bright furnishing. Italian ceramic floor in bath. New step-in rainfall shower. Woodburning stove insert in the original, beautiful, stone fireplace. Small firepit outside for quiet summer/fall eves; or hearty-folks roasting s'mores in winter.
Lovely, oiled-teakwood laminate floors LR and Hall - new faux-wood laminate in kitchen and bedrooms. You may find yourself resting on a pillowcase embroidered by my Cornish grandmother; or snuggled under a quilt made of squares of men's suit material; or find pencil drawings sent from the trenches of WWI from grandpa Pengelly (Tom) to grandma Pengelly (Olivia) in Cornwall.
Poke about...little surprises all over.
AND...and whole bass fiddle case of books presiding over the living room!

Wildlife sightings - deer, turkey, raccoon, owl, and birds of all sorts fly over or walk through these remarkable surrounds. Marvelous earthrise and earthsets. I think the trees up here talk.

Parfrey's Glen official entrance is a 20-minute walk away. Devil's Lake is a 10-minute ride. Devil's Head Ski/Golf Resort is 200 yards down Bluff Road. Quaint Merrimac FREE ferry (seasonal). Cascade Mountain Ski/Snowboarding or Wollersheim Winery/Sauk City - 20-minute ride. Attraction notebook available in unit.

There are several new distilleries under construction in Baraboo...and Vintage Brewery is up and going in nearby Sauk City/Prairie du Sac area.

Plenty of QUIET. Noise restriction after 11p. You could write your book here! Remarkable views. Friendly condo neighbors.

Keywords: Condominium - Rocky Glen is about 300 yards up Bluff Road and on the opposite side of the entrance to Devil's Head Ski and Golf Resort

Relaxing stay
Amazing condo in the woods! Lesleigh was a great host and very responsive. The apartment was well decorated, super clean, and had everything we needed. I liked having a fire after a hike on a cold winter day. The closeness to Parfrey’s Glen and Devil’s Lake was a huge plus.

Back to Rocky Glen
We’ve stayed here multiple times! Lesleigh’s place is like home away from home and conveniently located for skiing/snowboarding at Devil’s Head Resort. She is flexible with check-in time and was easy to reach when we needed her.

Nice, Quiet Getaway
This place was great! Very nice, comfortable and cozy. The host was very responsive and helpful. There are a lot of things to do in the area, so plenty to keep you busy (hiking, skiing, breweries, etc.).

Eclectic decor in wooded setting
From meeting Lesleigh (the owner) for an initial tour, to exploring all of the decorative touches, to enjoying a wide assortment of music, to being surrounded by books, to enjoying the rainfall shower, to warming up by the cozy fireplace, to being immersed in the trees - this was by far one of my most favorite places to stay. Ever. And it was impeccably clean. We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful home to rent while we hiked in Devils Lake State Park, just a 10 minute drive away. All of that being said, I would not recommend this place for young children as there are just too many delicate things to be broken. It should also be noted that this is a walk-up, second story dwelling.

Beautiful Getaway
Lesleigh’s place is the perfect spot to gather with friends in a lovely setting. It’s close to everything - Parfrey Glen, Devil's Lake State Park, and Baraboo. The condo is fully appointed with everything you could need. It's on the second floor with windows that frame two sides of the living room and a view of beautiful trees (particularly lovely in October). Lesleigh is great with communications and responds quickly to any needs that arise.
