Beautiful property with a beautiful view. The hosts provided lots of games, both indoor and outdoor, and comfortable amenities. Has a cabin in the woods feel but still a very easy quick drive to La Crescent and La Crosse.

Absolutely perfect cabin for our weekend. We were in town for a wedding and the biggest downfall is that we didn’t get to spend much time at the cabin! We hope to be back for a more relaxed weekend where we can spend time in the beautiful cabin!
