With a prime location on Castle Rock Lake with a sandy beach and walk-in waterfront access, two ponds, and three spacious levels, this home is the perfect combination of comfort and convenience - ideal for a long vacation with the family or group of friends! When you're not out boating and fishing or exploring the many attractions down in Wisconsin Dells, which is just a quick 30 minute drive, fire up the private gas grill on the spacious patio to cook up some terrific barbecue while you watch for visiting wildlife and let the kids romp around the large, two-acre yard. Inside, you'll find a well-appointed living space with comfortable furnishings and knotty pine features. Watch a movie on the flatscreen TV and then use the well-equipped, full kitchen to prepare your favorite meals. You can enjoy your creations at the handsome dining table then clear everything away for a fun family game night. The lower-level offers a walk-out basement and an entertainment area equipped with an arcade game, foosball table, game table, flatscreen TV, plus lots of comfortable furniture - the ideal place for older kids to hang out while you enjoy a few libations with friends on the spacious deck. Spend the day on the lake then gather everyone around the firepit for an evening of toasted s'mores and good company.

Great Getaway on Castle Lake
Great property right on Castle Lake. The house is spacious and well laid out. Plenty of bedroom space and fun things to do. Would recommend it to larger groups of friends or families.

This is second year we’ve rented a Vrbo (Vacasa) home and everyone was very awestruck by the beautiful home in which we stayed. The only thing I can complain about are the mosquitoes. They really like my wife. That is definitely not a complaint about anything you can do. Haha. Campfire was awesome. Glad the dock was real long. Easier to dock the boat we rented. The two teenage boys loved the kayaks and the girl was well versed in the canoe. She loved it! All in all, restaurants are close by boat and car.

Great Get Away
The house was very spacious and we had plenty of room for us and family friends. The kitchen was very well stocked and had plenty of plates, cups, pans, etc. The lake was an easy walk to get too as well. For the watch outs…the property is managed by a property management company so if you are looking for flexibility with check outs or a rate, or just a more personal touch, this may not be the property for you. The oven was not holding temperature during our stay (it would preheat but then would shut off). We reported it and the management company said they would get someone out to look into it. We used the grill to do some of our cooking due to this. Overall, the property was clean, comfortable and we enjoyed our stay in the area!

Great lakefront home with amazing man cave
I organized the trip with a bunch of old high school friends who haven’t gotten together since before COVID. We had a really great time. The place is really clean. The beds were very comfortable. The basement had a Golden Tee Machine, foosball, and mini ping pong table we used a lot. The fire pit area was nice with a view of the lake from where you sit. We had roaring fires two of the three nights we were there. We had an issue with the refrigerator/freezer not cooling. The management company was responsive and by the next night there was a new fridge delivered. They also reimbursed us for the lost meat/food we had. I thought this was really good guest service. They can’t control when things like that happen, only how they handle it. And they handled it perfectly. Overall, we had a really good long weekend catching up among a bunch of old 40-something guys who haven’t seen each other in a LONG time. P.S.: We rented a big pontoon boat from Big Papa rentals nearby and that went too. We had lunch at the Dirty Turtle and got pizza one night from Bucky’s Pizza. I’d recommend both places. We also went to a place called Shady Akers BBQ to eat and watch the Bears/Packers game. That place was REALLY good and a lot of fun.

Early problem solved
We did not have water for first 21/2 hours. We were able to take care of the problem with telephone help from local manager. Also the the very long driveway into the property had not been plowed of the 4 plus inches of snow . Very fortunate we had a truck. That problem was resolved the next morning before the rest of the guests arrived. The property was amazingly beautiful with the new fallen snow. We enjoyed a nice bonfire in this winter wonderland. The accommodations were wonderful for our family gathering. So despite the rocky start we enjoyed our time with many expressing interest in returning! Local management was very good to work with.

Beautiful property.
Clean, spacious, beautiful scenery. Only issue was we were given a wrong entry code. It took 30 minutes to get in after being told they were ready. Other than that, gorgeous place. Would highly recommend.

Great place for families! A lot of space and plenty of beds but only two bathrooms. Fun game room/tv room downstairs. Nice swimming area with shallow sandy bottom and 100 foot dock. We rented a pontoon from Big Papa's and they were great. Big yard for games and really nice fire pit setup. We will probably go back again. Make sure you bring plenty of food to cook there because not a lot of dining options other than Northern Bay Golf Course. Lakeside Bar and Grill which is very close is fun for tavern/tiki bar. We did not eat since there was over an hour wait due to friers that were down in the kitchen. We did have some issues with the oven and there were no trash bags which was weird. The patio door to the deck had a cracked handle which ultimately broke off. The outdoor grill needs to be cleaned or updated but made it work. A wheel barrel to haul the firewood would be nice as well. All in all it is a great place for big family gatherings. We would stay again.

Amazing
This place was so amazing!! The pictures on line did not do it justice. We walked out on to the ice to watch the guys ice fish, we went sledding & played games of every type and age group. The long weekend went to fast but hope to see it during the summer for more experiences.
