Real Christmas Tree Farm! Devil's Lake nearby
We were extremely happy with our stay at Paul and Erika’s Airbnb. They had truly thought of everything with little toiletries supplied for those who may have forgotten them, multiple board games available, wood for bonfires, and a helpful welcome guide. The Christmas Tree Farm was beautiful and at night we were pleasantly surprised by hundreds of fireflies out in the fields. Such a cool experience! The close proximity to the Dells and Devil’s Lake made it the perfect location. The hosts were also very responsive and proactive on the Airbnb app. Highly recommend!

Little Lake House
You could not ask for a more beautiful and peaceful setting. We loved being right on the lake and watching bald eagles, egrets, pelicans, and even an otter! A perfect spot if you’re looking for a great location and plan to make the most of your time outdoors.

'The Lake Escape' Lakefront House Near Ski Hills
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I recently had the pleasure of staying at a wonderful home, and I must say, it was amazing! The Lakeview was absolutely stunning, providing a breathtaking backdrop for a perfect getaway. Kelli went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed for the weekend. There were plenty of towels and amenities available, which made our stay even more comfortable. I truly appreciated all the thoughtful touches and attention to detail. Thank you for an unforgettable experience! I can't wait to return!

The Treehouse
The tree house is a beautiful spot to stay. Plenty of activities to pass the time and enjoy the company of your friends and family!

Spacious Pine Cabin at Island Pointe
Lovely updated cabin among other cabins in resort on Lake Delton. Spent 3 days with my 2 sisters and enjoyed the peaceful surroundings as great getaway from, yet easy to reach Dells attractions. As summer fully starts next week I expect the place will be much busier as it seems a very good family resort with pool and playground for kids. Nice, sandy beach on lake a short walk away. There are stairs to access the cabin from the deck. Use key pad hidden behind upper deck screen/storm door. Lower level has nice extra family room to spread out guests. Bring Duraflame type logs if you’d like to use fireplace. We enjoyed that on a cooler night.

Lakefront, Hot Tub, Kayaks, Paddleboards, Pontoon
Our family had a wonderful and relaxing stay! Kids enjoyed fishing off the dock and paddleboarding around the no wake lake. Would love to see how relaxing a winter stay would be.

The Lake House on beautiful Mason Lake
This house is completely renovated and is set on Lake Mason (just 15-20 minutes from the Dells). The quality of the renovations (including a new pier on the lake) coupled with the cleanliness of the property, make it a gem of a find. The owner, Mike, is easy to communicate with. I highly recommend this property and will definitely be back.

Lakefront Home on quiet sandy lake! All seasons
My husband and I really enjoyed our stay here! it was a lovely home in a quiet area surrounded by nature. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Lakefront Log Cabin w/Loft, Kayaks, Canoe, EV
Wonderful place and beautiful scenery! Love the dock and lake so peaceful and homey.

Cabin on the Peninsula with Wood Sauna
We loved our stay at the cabin. The furniture and decorations were so pretty and made us feel comfortable and right at home. Matthew had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. the place was clean and the a/c worked perfectly for the super hot weekend. We really enjoyed sitting on the deck with the lake view and quiet surroundings. We would definitely stay here again.

Cozy Lakeside Cabin on Lake Koshkonong
3rd time staying at Erica’s place with our dog Archie , perfect spot to unplug and unwind for a couple days. Local eateries near by, easy drive into town too. Thanks again Erica!!

Relaxing Cottage near Devils Lake Baraboo WI Dells
Beautiful rustic property!!! Clean. Communicative hosts on site.

Cozy Lake Cottage With The Best View & Pontoon!
This was our second stay at the cottage and it did not disappoint! Swimming off the end of the dock was fun and refreshing and the views are spectacular. Steve as well as his neighbors are very friendly and helpful. The cottage has everything you may need and then some. The Chophouse down the road has amazing food and cocktails. We will make dinner reservations there next time for the entire weekend. This place was a wonderful romantic getaway for us. We will be making this an annual summer trip

Cozy Cabin on Decatur Lake
It was a perfect little one room cabin and super comfortable. Nice and cool on a record hot summer day. Although our dog who loves water was not able to access the lake right by the cabin, a short drive to the other side brought us to a nice little “beach”. There was also a beautiful walking path along the river where our dog could jump in and out of the river along the path. We also enjoyed the little town of Brodhead with its cheese store, ice cream stand, and great coffee stand.

Waterfront Home on Lake Wisconsin
Fantastic hosts that were very responsive to our questions and requests! Great location right on the lake.

The Wanderlust at the Sunset Cove
Stay here! Had an excellent weekend getaway, and loved Botond's space. Obviously very well kept and clean, but the space has a very tranquil vibe and is extremely cozy. Would love to stay again! Lots of great food and fun within walking distance! I'd recommend a morning walk up the hill to downtown! And if you can, a short drive to Deer Park! Boti really is a great, responsive host, so big thanks to her again!

Waters Edge Cottage
The location was beautiful and the lake views were unmatched. The space itself is well-utilized. We especially took advantage of the outdoor deck. The overall space was clean and well maintained. We did clean most of the kitchen ware (i.e. pots and pans) before using it because it didn't look entirely clean but that was no bother for us. Chris was communicative and checked in on us throughout our stay. Would recommend for anyone looking for a cozy place to use as a home base that's dog-friendly to explore the surrounding Devil's lake area!

Sauna | Hot Tub | EV+ | Luxury | Cozy | Private
My two best friends and I stayed at the fabulous Refugio Graziella for a relaxing girls’ weekend and it. was. perfect. Most of the weekend was spent lounging and chatting in all the many wonderful spaces the home offers: sipping coffee on the peaceful screened-in porch, relaxing in the hot tub, roasting marshmallows at the serene fire pit under the string lights with ample firewood and supplies, doing crafts and playing games at the inviting dining room table, cooking meals in the fully equipped kitchen, and listening to music in the cozy living room. We did not end up using the sauna (just didn’t have time), but are already planning a winter getaway to RG. We absolutely loved our stay and highly recommend it if you are looking for a quiet getaway, surrounded by nature but still a short drive away from anything you need or want. Clearly, so much thought was put into anticipating the needs of their guests, and that makes Refugio Graziella a place you immediately feel comfortable. 🥰

Modern cabin with pool and Hot Tub!
Alexandra’s place was great! Our family had the best staycation all under one roof. Alex literally had anything you could think of needing. She was super friendly and very responsive. Might have to become a yearly stay for the family!

New Secluded Cabin Quiet Getaway
We enjoyed our stay so much! The house was accessible to all, with all bathrooms being walk in shower, and on the first floor! We traveled with my grandmother and she had a great time! The screened in porch was amazing to sit outside at night and watch the deer! We would definitley stay again.

Secluded WI River Getaway w/ Hot Tub & Kayaks
We had a great stay! Kids, parents, and grandparents all enjoyed everything the house had to offer. Hosts made everything easy and we were able to relax and have fun! Would definitely stay again.

Sauna | Hot Tub | Cold Tub | 13 min to Sand Valley
Everything was great. Very nice house, as in the photo. All the necessary amenities are present. I'll definitely come back again!

Lakefront Chalet: Dock, Near Dells, Coffee Bar
Megan’s place was the PERFECT place for our family’s first trip to Wisconsin! We love visiting the Dells (20 minute drive) but our favorite thing was just spending time at the Chalet. It’s extremely well-stocked and Megan has thought of absolutely everything travelers might need! And, the chalet itself is so beautiful and inviting. We can’t wait to go back! If you’re traveling to that area, book it! You will not be disappointed!

Sunset Cottage at Lake Wi. Newly Remodeled!!!
Absolutely loved our stay! Mitch’s home was perfect and cozy for the winter weather. It was just what we needed. Will definitely be coming back.
Your guide to Lake Wisconsin
All About Lake Wisconsin
Nestled just south of where the neighboring states of Minnesota and Michigan meet Canada, Lake Wisconsin is a large reservoir on the Wisconsin River that’s a popular spot for fishing and boating throughout the year. There are also many state parks and nature reserves within easy reach where you can hike and cycle in the warmer months and cross-country ski, ride snowmobiles, and snowshoe through pristine forests in the winter.
A handful of small towns dot this popular lake. Baraboo is home to the 10,000-acre Devil’s Lake State Park, one of the visited state parks in Wisconsin. In Lodi, one of the largest towns along the lake, you’ll find a winery, distillery, and the scenic Lower Wisconsin State Riverway. If you want to cross the lake without having to drive all the way around, the town of Merrimac offers a vehicle ferry crossing.
With its central location close to both Madison (45 minutes away) and Milwaukee (a 1.5 hour drive away), Lake Wisconsin is an ideal spot to stop on a road trip through this section of the Midwest.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Lake Wisconsin
Lake Wisconsin experiences drastic weather changes from season to season. The summer months are warm and sunny, making this the perfect time for hiking, fishing, and boating. The early fall (an ideal time for viewing the area’s brightly colored leaves) and late spring have milder weather and cooler evenings, so you’ll likely need light layers. While the winter months can be frigid, this is a wonderful time to go snowshoeing or cross-country skiing and see the lake and nearby forests covered in snow.
Top things to do in Lake Wisconsin
Fishing
Lake Wisconsin offers ample opportunities for amateur and experienced anglers to try their luck. The waters are rich with walleye and white bass and it is possible to fish throughout the year. Popular fishing spots include Devil’s Lake, Walleye Lane Wayside Park, Summer Oaks Boat Landing, Richard A. Grant Park, and Parfrey’s Glen Creek. Boat and equipment rentals are available around the area.
Devil’s Lake State Park
Located in Baraboo, the Devil’s Lake State Park features two sandy beaches and nearly 30 miles of trails. Rock climbers will be happy to know there are plenty of routes for climbing and bouldering. During your visit, you can rent kayaks, paddleboards, and canoes to explore more of the lake. In the winter, it is also possible to have a guide take you cross-country skiing or snowshoeing.
Merrimac
Merrimac is a small town on the lake that’s well-known for the iconic Merrimac Ferry that has been whisking visitors across the lake free of charge since 1848. One of the more popular lake outposts, you’ll be able to find shops, cafes, and restaurants here, as well as an amazing ice cream stand right near the south entrance of the ferry.
