Waters Edge 3BR w/Hot Tub~Ski~Relax~Near Dells on Lake WI in Wisconsin Dells

Good times and Relaxation are what you'll find when renting our furnished Vacation Home on Lake Wisconsin. Whether you spend your time on the Water fishing, swimming, tubing or just cruising, skiing the nearby Ski Slopes, visiting Area Attractions, or Relaxing at the house, you'll find plenty to do with your Family and Friends!

Water's Edge Retreat is conveniently located midway between Madison and the Wisconsin Dells, and is just off Hwy. 90/94/39. It's only 90 minutes from Milwaukee, 3 hours from downtown Chicago, 2 hours from Dubuque or 4 hours from Minneapolis.

Inside you'll find 3 Bedrooms and 1 Bath with a Walk-in Shower. We are happy to provide towels for showering, but ask that you bring your own outdoor beach towels. Each room is tastefully furnished and all beds have new mattresses. 

The Master Bedroom has a King size bed, 32" TV with Digital Cable and DVD player, and Sliding Glass Doors that open onto the Deck with a View out to the Lake. The 2nd Bedroom has a Queen size bed and a 20" TV with Digital Cable, DVD/VHS.  The 3rd Bedroom has 2 Twin beds with a 20" TV with Digital Cable and DVD player. There is also a Queen Sleeper Sofa and Twin Sleeper Chair in the living area where you can awaken to a Panoramic view of the Lake. The house is cooled in the summer by Central Air Conditioning and there are also ceiling fans in each room.

The newly renovated kitchen has everything you need to prepare and serve your meals, and is part of a GreatRoom along with the Living and Dining areas, and vented Gas Fireplace. The open space is accented by Cathedral Ceilings and a 22' wall of windows that provides a breathtaking view of Lake Wisconsin!  New carpet throughout the living area and bedrooms.

There is plenty of room in the driveway for several cars just a few steps from the house (30' long parking spot for trailer).

You can launch your own boat just down the street or Rent our Pontoon (mid-May to Oct), and keep it docked at your pier. The water is 3-4 feet deep at the end of the pier which allows ample room for bigger boats.

Lake Wisconsin has Walleye, White Bass, Smallmouth Bass, Largemouth Bass, Northern Pike, Muskie, Crappie and Catfish and is connected to the Wisconsin River which gives you access to even more fishing and areas to explore.  Enjoy seeing Bald Eagles soar overhead, Turtles basking in the sun on fallen trees, hummingbirds feeding at the honeysuckle vines and Herons fishing along the shore.  During spring migration you can even spot White Pelicans fishing in the bay or flying gracefully in the sky.

Relax outside on the Wrap-Around Deck that overlooks the Lake, try out the Hammock in the shade or recline on the sitting area at the end of the pier. There's a Gas Grill and plenty of Deck Seating to enjoy your meals outside. There is also a Fire Pit in the yard for roasting marshmallows or keeping warm on cool evenings.

Feel like lounging inside? We have Board Games, Puzzles, a classic N64 Video Game System with controllers and games, and a 52" HD Plasma Flatscreen TV with Surround Sound, digital cable, DVR, DVD, VHS and movie channels. What better way to watch your favorite teams or enjoy a good movie than on the big screen! Feel free to bring your own movies, or watch some of the ones we have in our library. Listen to our CD's or yours and play tunes from your iPOD on the Stereo while you relax.

Come relax or play at Water's Edge Retreat! Whatever you choose to do, you will be comfortable and entertained while surrounded by the natural beauty that comes from being on the shores of Lake Wisconsin!
