Making memories at the lake house, dogs alwd Dells 30 min away TRH Lic 9368
About this house rental
Nature and peacefulness is all around you at this beautiful home on Goose Lake. Our family has had this home for 18 years, kids are getting older so I would like to share with you our home and our love of Wisconsin. You can find enough to explore and do staying at the house or you can drive to the Dells which is only about 30 minutes away. We are located on the main part of the lake with our own pier, which will be getting a make over in the spring due to high water levels the last 2 years. We have a paddle boat, 2 stand up paddle boards 1 kayak and a fishing boat. Goose Lake is an 85 acre motorized lake but also offers the best fishing around. The lake itself is a bit weedy and in some spots mucky but you can swim if you choose at the frontage or at the public beach area. Our house is on a dead end street which makes for a private atmosphere. Take a walk around the lake, see if you can see a sand hill crane or stop and get a book at the free little library along the way. We have plenty of land for you to play horseshoes, badminton, bags, ladder ball, bocce ball, soccer, baseball, you name it we have it supplied for you or bring your own lawn games to enjoy. There is also a lower level rec room with a pool table, foos ball table, water rafts and 2nd full size fridge waiting for you to stock with a cold drinks so you don't have to run upstairs to the fridge. The lower level has patio doors to walk out to yard or view the lake while you play a game of pool. The house has 2 bedrooms one bath on main floor and 2 bedrooms one bath on the second floor. The kitchen is fully stocked to make dinners or grill out on the patio. We have plenty of board games, card games, bingo, coloring book and toys. No wi-fi or cable but 2 TV's with VCR to watch a movie that maybe you have not seen in awhile. We have regular movies and kids movie titles available. The town of Oxford is about 10 minute drive if you forgot something there is a dollar general and a liquor store. On weekends they have flea markets. There is also a laundromat and restaurant in town. Whether you are here to relax, reconnect or have some adventure you will find it all and more, we look forward to sharing our house with your family. We hope you make lots of great memories and would be honored to be a part of them. We know your dog is part of your family so we allow all well behaved dogs to vacation with you. Additional fee per day for each dog.

We had family christmas at the house because it offered more space than our family homes. We loved the open kitchen so we could be together without being too crowded.

My family loved this property. It's located not far from the Dells so you can go enjoy yourself in town and come back to relax and fish or be in the yard and not encounter any of the neighbors. The beach is just a short two minute car ride from the house. Perfect place for a large family to spend time together.

Holy goose poop!! The entire backyard is covered in goose poop, there were 9 geese in the yard upon arrival, and they returned regularly during our stay. The lake is almost impossible to use any of the boats on as it is extremely weedy and full of lillypads. The pedal boat was full of icky water (very stinky). The dock is unstable with no railings, actually just 2 boards laid down on the ground at the start. The full mattresses are in need of replacement as they have a hole in them where people have lain, so if you don't lay in that hole you roll. The king size bed is actually just 2 twin mattresses pushed together. Overall, the location was good but I will not return and would not recommend.

The home was tucked back in a nice wooded space. The inside was clean and roomy. The kitchen had everything! We had a ton of fun with the pool table. It was a great experience!

Almost 100 relatives were in Wisconsin Dells for our Family reunion so being together was always intense. Coming back to the house was the quiet needed by everyone. The 9 year old girls fished, the littlest boys played with the cars, and the adults sat on the deck overlooking kid activities. The beds were really comfortable - no one wanted to leave!
Lisa was always available and accommodating. Thanks Lisa!

We enjoyed our short stay on this property, it was in a very quiet spot. The house was beautiful, and plenty of room for our family of 6 (teens and up). The pool table & dart board got plenty of use. We didn't do any outdoor stuff as we were in the area to visit family, the lake is was pretty in the mornings when I drank my coffee!

Very nice house in a quiet setting. Enjoyed using the canoe, paddleboat and kayak. Liked watching and listening to the Sandhill Cranes. Well stocked with supplies. Communication with the owner was excellent. Some minor TLC both inside and outside but overall nice property. Would recommend.

We had a great time.Our host was great. It should not be required to leave a written review in order to submit our ratings. Since it is,VRBO web site was not easy to use.The extra VRBO fee should be disclosed in the original daily rate.We prabably will not use VRBO website again.

Plenty for the 7 of us to do! We took full advantage of the water toys and toured the lake. We went for walks, played lawn games and took a Duck boat tour at the Dells. This was the most stocked rental we have stayed at and was exactly as advertised. Thank you for being a great host!

Located on a small quiet lake. Interior of house is great, mostly remodeled. Only wish we had known the fishing boat had a leak and neither paddle boat works well. All in all a great trip.

Homeaway from home was a great place for our family to have a relaxing vacation ❤️ Plenty of space for us to spread out. Lisa provides many extras. Shampoo, rinse, lotion, tissues, in the bathroom. Anything you will need in the open kitchen. The whole family enjoyed the pool and foosball tables. Any type of water craft you desire🚣♀️ Sandhill cranes everywhere! We will be back😁

We had a great stay. It was nice to be away from the busy of the Dells which is what brought us here. Only slight bummer was no internet. We knew there wasn’t Wifi but I didn’t realize cell reception was so poor. Made hard at times to connect with others or use our gps. That isn’t the fault of the owners but would recommend thinking about adding Wifi for that reason. Not a reason we wouldn’t want to stay tho! Place is very clean and has everything else you could need. We loved it. Thank you again!

The cabin was great and very comfortable. The lake was peaceful and we enjoyed the property.

This property has so much potential but needs a handyman desparately. The peacefulness of the lake and the neighborhood was so nice and the house was superbly furnished with housewares, toiletries, laundry products, and paper products. However, there is a long punchlist of things inside the house which need to be addressed. But most importantly, because the house was located on a area of the lake covered in lilly pad, to fish one would need to go out on a very decrepit pier or in a rowboat with a significant leak. Those 2 issues were a big detriment to us.

This cabin was perfect for our family of adults and dog to get away and relax. The cabin came equipped with so many handy things for guests to use, including a really well stocked kitchen, dog toys and dog bed, and games and toiletries. We also enjoyed seeing all the wild birds around the cabin!

We went during the off season so there wasn't much to do, but the house was beautiful and the kids stayed entertained with the pool table. We hope to go back this summer for some fishing.

We had a wonderful time and the location has the most spectacular views right off the lake in a nice secluded area. Lisa was an amazing host!

Beautiful property on a little lake. Owners were responsive and accommodating. Stayed in the winter with family and it has 4 bedrooms and a basement with pool and fooseball.
Only drawbacks were little things that were not a big deal. Missing handle on a door, no wifi, and inside doors have a lock that can't be unlocked from the outside (can be a concern with little kids).
5.0
The cabin was perfect for our party of 8. The kids enjoyed the pool and foosball tables. Everything you could imagine needing was provided. The location was perfect, we were a manageable drive to both Devils Head and the Dells. Lisa was so nice to work with and immediately responsive to inquiries. Highly recommend staying here

This property was in a beautiful and peaceful spot on goose lake. Even though it rained on us, we enjoyed the view of the lake from the cozy sitting area by the fireplace. Clean and comfortable. Well equipped kitchen and things to do inside and out!

Our entire family ranging in age from 1 to 64 enjoyed this home. It was as described in the listing and had all the amenities we could of asked for. We used all four bedrooms and everyone slept well.
The coffee station was probably the favorite as well as the views and the lake. The boats were great. The paddle
Boat does need a new rudder but with some creativity that actually worked flawlessly, we used a small oar to direct it.
We took a walk yo the beach and enjoyed the sand, the water was chilly in October but we still got a little wet.
The fire pit was awesome and they supply of wood that was at the house was great. We did leave money for the firewood and gladly did that so as not to have to stop for our own. There were plenty of DVDs to watch tv is needed.
Rent this place! We had a blast and will go back!

Very nice for a weekend get away for a group. Well equipped with plenty of dishes and supplies. No internet and low cell signal makes for a quiet time and gives more room for the family to pay attention to each other and not their phones. Plenty of wildlife (we saw squirrels and rabbits and deer and geese and cranes all the time). The dock is in need of some repair along with the peddle boat rudders but were still usable on our trip.

Booking and checking in was straightforward and fairly easy. The neighborhood is quiet with zero traffic sounds. There were a few minor fixes needed for the house, but everything was functioning just fine otherwise . Close to the Dells.

Was a great place for our young kids to hang out and great being so close to the Dells. Was a nice, peaceful location.
5.0
Our group of teen and young adults enjoyed cooking and eating off the grill and late night snacks in the kitchen and on the deck off the kitchen. There was space to play cards (a large group of 10 total), play pool, and play foosball when it was rainy. Otherwise we spent our time on the lake using the paddle boards, kayak, and 2 peddle boats as well as having a fire in the fire pit every night. It was a good home base for us to go to Wisconsin Dells, Noah's Ark, and Devil's Lake. In all we enjoyed our time there. There were minor problems with the row boat and the sink, but the owner was very responsive to our needs. Great place.

Great time with family! We all enjoyed the home like feel of this house. The peace and quiet at the end of a busy day a the Dells was nice. Just great to spend meals together and time by the water. The house is very comfortable.
