We enjoyed the backyard, the fire pits and deck very much. Nice large yard. The hot tub was murky. The games provided..pool table especially, was enjoyed by several. The beds were comfortable. Logan was very responsive as there were some maintenance and housekeeping issues, which did not cause us not to enjoy our stay. The house was very central for enjoying all the attractions we came to see and do. We had a wonderful week!

Tinkham Lodge

Great property and great owners. We had a couple issues upon arrival but we reached out to the owners and they were fantastic resolving it immediately. Property was great for my family of 9. Very convenient to getting to the Dells and conveniently located to good restaurants and shopping.

Nice, clean house in a great location, just 15 minutes from the Dells. Loved the easy access to the fun activities and restaurants, along with the quiet surroundings. Plenty of comfortable beds for our group of 10 (four teens, two parents and four grandparents), but the dining and hangout spaces seem to be designed more for 8 people. Our kids enjoyed the hot tub and the karaoke, and there were lots of fun toys for younger kids as well. The host was easy to get in touch with and made sure we had all the necessary toiletries.
