This property was remodeled and is lovely!

This cozy house is located on over 1/2 acres of land so you don't have neighbors right on top of you, and you don't have to walk to a park or a beach. The shore is mainly sand with some pebbles. Many properties in the area have a muddy lake bottom, but you can walk into ours a ways before hitting mud!

There are 2 bedrooms and two bathrooms, a fully stocked kitchen with a charcoal grill outside, and a living room with a fireplace to relax in or kick back in the air conditioning in the summer, and a garage for your toys.

We have yard games, board games, books, kayaks, paddle boats, a large TV, internet, and a blue-ray player so you have lots of entertainment at the house. The sandy shoreline is perfect for wading in during the summer months, and the lake is perfect for year round fishing, including ice fishing in the winter There are also many snowmobile trails in the area.

The house is located just 2 blocks away from a gravel boat launch! There are 14 bars and supper clubs around the lake and over 10,000 acres of water to enjoy. The activities are abundant in the area such as golf, a pool, parks, farm tours, bowling, the drive-in theatre, wine tastings, or stock car races. There are also activities in the city of Madison, Milwaukee, and Wisconsin Dells to discover.

The local townships around the lake, as well as both Dane and Jefferson counties, now require that the host has the name and address of the guest booking the property.

This home is just over 2 hours to the Chicago area, or about 20 minutes to Madison, Janesville or Fort Atkinson, so you won't spend much of your precious vacation time driving. The Anchor Inn is nearby to rent a boat if you don't bring one.

    HUGE Yard -- our 3 kids (age 10-14) played football while my husband made a fire in the fire pit right near the shore. We listened to music and danced the night away. In the day time -- we were out in the kayaks and paddle boat and fished (brought our own fishing supplies). Then hit up Lily pad for Thursday night Bingo (5-min walk),and my son won 20. A carefree, relaxed, wonderful 2-night stay. Thank you Tammy!

    Our family of 5 stayed at this lake front home for the weekend. We enjoyed the easy access to the lake, kayaking, paddle boat, fishing and all the yard games. It was exactly what we were looking to do for the weekend- enjoy the outdoors with some water sports! The house was very clean and well stocked. Our only issue/reason for 4 stars instead of 5, was there were so many mosquitoes around the home, so naturally they would enter the home. When we first arrived on a Friday evening, the house had several mosquitoes already throughout the house. It was a bit off putting, however the rest of the house was clean and we spent the majority of the weekend outdoors.

    The property was perfect and house was clean. I appreciated all the extra blankets and bedding. The house has everything you need to cook even spices. We all loved all the lake toys from the kayaks to all the different floats and even yard games. The yard and private beach was great for our dog. Our dog could walk in and out of the lake at her leisure. My teen boys had a blast fishing all day and even at night. We all had a great time, cought lots of fish and left with great tans!! Perfect getaway from city life.

    My husband, dog and myself had a great few days’ stay at Tammy’s! Great location on a quiet lake, very clean property, functioning AC, strong WiFi connection and kitchen was very well-stocked. Tammy’s communication was excellent - super clear check-in instructions and answered any questions I had quickly. Highlight was the size of the property (huge lawn with tons of room for us and the dog to run around)! Comes with tons of firewood (and even kindling) which was a very nice touch. For us the inside was perfectly-sized, but I do think that more than 4 people would struggle to comfortably fit. The walkout from the beach gets mucky pretty quickly, but this was a non-issue for us since we didn’t really want to swim - and most importantly it was perfect for our dog! Overall we had a fantastic stay and would gladly return - we absolutely loved it.

    House was clean, well stocked with both essentials and water toys, and conveniently right on Lake Koshkonong. Our kids and dog loved the easy beach access for swimming. Town needs like gas, groceries, and boat rental are less than 15 minutes away and the Lily Pad Restaurant is a 5 minute walk. Communication with Tammy was very fast and check in/out painless. We would return again and definitely recommend for a pet friendly family weekend.

    A beautiful place for a relaxing getaway. The home is immaculate and has every thing you need. The little beach area was a great place to sit and unwind. Overall, we truly enjoyed our short stay! Would have given 5 stars except that the boat lift was still out of the water, sitting on the grass right in the middle of the lake view. We had picked this place mostly for the lake view, so that was a bit of a downer. We contacted Tammy & she replied right away, explaining that the marina had been saying they'd have the lift installed for the previous 3 weeks. I just wish she'd shared that with us. Obviously out of her control, but would have been good to know before arriving. Also, the sliding screen door had a large rip in it which we did share with Tammy also. We loved the location - very close to several bars/restaurants. Would recommend as I'm sure the lift is in the water by now.

    Property is clean and appears to be newly renovated. All the appliances are in working order. Check in and check out process fast and easy. Tammy over communicates (that's a good thing) and readily answers inquiries. Plenty of furniture indoor and out. Nice deck for bird watching and such looking at the lake. We did use the two kayaks. The Lily Pad tavern is just a walk away, lively and friendly crowd. They had music every evening for Memorial Day holiday. We had a nice uncomplicated stay.
