The bunkbeds have a double-sized bed on the bottom and a twin on top. *The Northern Retreat Townhome can comfortably sleep 8-10 people. Depending on comfort in sharing bunks and beds, and the ages of children, it could sleep up to 12 people. After 8 guests there is a charge of $15/night per guest. Pets are welcome with a $50 set fee for your stay. A 2 dog maximum. The patio out the sliding glass doors has a grill and gas-powered fire pit. Sitting at the outdoor table and chairs gives you a look at the lake through the woods. The balcony off of the Master bedroom overlooks the lake.

Amenities include 10-foot ceilings, 2.5 baths, music in lower level and master bedroom, hardwood kitchen floor, stone counter tops, beautiful cabinets, incredibly comfortable high quality beds and linens, plush leather furniture, a garage stall in attached garage, all in a quiet setting approximately 1/4 mile from the Lake front Bar/Restaurant, VIP Club House, Marina, Arcade and Beach.

great place to stay
large townhome very comfortable for 8 of us, well-stocked kitchen, great communication with questions, check in process, etc., king bed is super comfy, cousins has fun sleeping in bunk bed room together, gas grill worked perfectly. and best of all, during the week the lake is dead which made our wake surfing and boarding, and anchoring with lily pad very enjoyable, we were also able to get a slip at the marina (but, beware they will not call you back if you try to reserve beforehand; we got it when we arrived, luckily they had a few open spots) Cons: TV in living room was small which made it tough to watch the olympics at night, no great view of the lake from the living room

Overall a great stay
We vacationed around the dells and found this to be a great location. It was about a 30 minute drive from the Dells. It’s a quiet and peaceful area right on the water (no beach access directly on property but a short walk to). There is some places near by to rent boats. The beach area has the softest sand we have ever felt. Overall, our stay was great. We did have some concerns that the sheets were not clean. There was some crusty yellow stuff on one set of sheets and the other was just in general dirty. We also were surprised that for a house that lists it could accommodate up to 12, it didn’t supply bigger dishes for large meals, seating in the living room only fits 4 and the kitchen table only seats 6 but others can sit at the island if need be. Closet in master room is locked so no where for hang up clothes unless borrowing a closet from other rooms. Property manager did not need to be contacted during our stay but we had great communication leading up to our stay. We did not have an issue with internet during our stay. It would be nice if there was some activities for the house (such as yard games, additional board games, lake floaters). Overall it was nice.

Not worth the price
This property was disappointing. Beware of small details. They do not provide shampoo, soap for in the shower/bath (unless you want to use liquid hand soap), coffee, facial tissues or beach towels. I have not stayed at a rental property before that did not provide these basic amenities. Because we flew with carry-on bags only, space was limited in our luggage. The grounds around the townhome were not well-kept--lots of overgrown grass and weeds. Things seemed relatively clean inside but there were wrappers on the floor in the master bedroom, and coffee grounds and coffee in the coffee pot from the previous renter. The development that the town home was in was eerily quiet (even on the Saturday we were there.) The on-site restaurant (which does not get very good reviews) was closed during the week and the pool is not open to renters. The beach was deserted. The setting is pretty in the trees with views of the lake, but the best view is from the master bedroom balcony. The patio downstairs has only a round log table with benches and a grill. There were two folding lawn chairs and one beach chair in the garage, which we planned to use to watch the sunset--but then realized the beautiful sunset pictures on the site are actually pictures of the sunrise which, in July, beams directly onto the bed in the master bedroom. There was just an overall atmosphere of "hanging on" and doing the minimum to get by. I would not stay again. Way overpriced for what you get.

The property was very nice and convenient to the highway but pictures misrepresented access to the lake from the house. While it is lake facing there is a major drop from the yard to the lake which creates no access to swim. However, there is a beach nearby. Back yard is shared with neighbors who have 2 very large dogs staked out there and gives limited access for kids to play.

Castle Rock Lake Townhouse
Everything was great except that the pictures in the listing were distorted making the refrigerator look huge when it was actually much smaller which made things challenging for us during our week long stay. The photos should be more realistic so one knows precisely what to expect. The master bedroom walk-in closet was locked and not available for use which was not stated in the listing.. The master bedroom king bed blocked the outlet for the left side of the bed preventing one from placing ones alarm or phone charger on the bedside table. A power strip should be plugged in behind the bed for use on the table or floor for guest use since this bed is too large to move to get access to that outlet. The washer/dryer is a space saving stacked unit in a closet upstairs. Be prepared to climb 21 stairs to get upstairs and back down! Overall, this house is very nice and the management was very responsive when the wifi went out toward the end of our stay. We would stay there again and give it a thumbs up aside from the master bdrm issues.

Family Fun
We enjoyed the home very much. We had 8 adults and 4 children ages 6 and under. There was a lot of space and it was very clean and comfortable. The kitchen could have used more serving/baking ware to prepare the amount of food you need for 12 people (large serving bowls, 9X13 baking dish, more flatware, e.g.) but had plenty of pots and pans for the stovetop. Be aware that the backyard ends at a 12 ft bluff, especially if you arrive at night. Loved the driveway being in a culdesac for kids to ride bikes and play safely. Overall an excellent stay and we highly recommend!

Beautiful serene retreat
Beautiful townhouse set within a serene woods and lake view. Close to everything you need and within 30 minutes of Wisconsin Dells. Townhouse was spacious and beautifully decorated. We had an issue with the oven and within a short phone call was addressed and fixed. Only downfall was the establishments near by were closed during our stay, but others were a quick drive down the road. Took advantage of the nearby water sports rentals and enjoyed the beach which was a short walk. I highly recommend!! We had a great time!

Absolutely loved it!!
It was very easy to set up and the owner was amazing to work with for changes or questions. We were so impressed with how beautiful and spacious the home was. It met all our needs but wish we would have known it wasn’t directly on the beach like the pictures made it look. However, even though it wasn’t on the beach, it was very close and we loved the quiet peacefulness. We will definitely go back again!! Thank you for sharing your home with us.

Fall family trip
Great trip overall being with family. The apartment itself was nice but had a couple hiccups as we were there. The water had an issue when we arrived but someone came out ASAP to help fix the problem. They also had us move furniture for them to paint while we were there.. which we found odd but complied. And then the oven fell apart on us while cooking which was a little hard to use after that. But overall, beautiful spot/location and we enjoyed ourselves!

Would stay again, even with issue that was resolved
his townhouse was larger than I expected. The kitchen was large, and nice wide stairway to second floor. While the lake is not accessible, there is a nice view, particularly when we moved our lawn chairs to the back of the yard. Unfortunately, when we arrived, the house had not been cleaned from the previous visitors. It is quite uncomfortable to walk into dirty towels all over, used sheets and a dirty kitchen. But I texted the contact, and she quickly came over and cleaned. Apparently she was unaware it was rented, but she was nice and took care of it. Luckily when we were there it was the off season, so it was nice and quiet. I suspect if it was in the summer, it could be loud with the large campground right next door. Overall the place worked really well for us, and we are thinking about coming back in the winter.
