Quiet Cottage on Beaver Dam Lake

Our lakefront cottage is perfect for anyone looking for a quiet & affordable waterside vacation! Completely renovated, the cottage offers everything you need to feel at home.

The open concept kitchen/living room offers plenty of space and picturesque views of the lake. The space offers full-sized stainless steel appliances (including a dishwasher), a large island with seating, sofa sleeper and 40-inch Smart TV.

Off the living area you can enjoy views from the private deck, set up with a low dining/fire table & chairs (gas grill available). You can also relax at the bonfire pit (firewood provided).

The kitchen is fully stocked with dishes/glassware, cookware, utensils, toaster and coffee maker.

Bathroom offers a full size shower & tub and comes stocked with towels, shampoo/conditioner/body wash and hair dryer. Laundry with washer & dryer are included.

2 Bedrooms: each bedroom includes clean & comfortable bedding, a dresser & closet. Bedroom 1 offers a Queen bed, Bedroom 2 has a bunk bed; the bottom is a full and the top and trundle below is a twin.

The rural setting offers tons of time for relaxation. Whether you love to sit on the shoreline (60ft) and watch the birds (the Pelican's are amazing), get out on the water (we provide 3 kayaks free of charge), relax on the swing or play games in the large & shaded yard - we have plenty of options for all.

Bring your boat! Our cottage is located within walking distance from the boat launch. You can dock your boat on our private dock. We do recommend pulling it off the water each night. If you choose to leave it on the dock, we are not liable for any damage to your boat that may occur. If your boat damages the dock, you will be responsible.

Beaver Dam Lake is a 6,718 acre full recreation lake. It has a maximum depth of 7 feet with a muddy bottom. The water offers great fishing and our cottage is located on the north side, which has much less boat activity. If you're looking for crystal clear water and a sandy bottom, this is not it. If you are hoping to swim and the water on the shoreline is not to your standards, we recommend taking the kayaks out to the middle of the lake to cool off. If you're looking for a public beach, we recommend Crystal Lake Park or Dodge County Ledge Park.
Our cottage is located near Wood's Liquor Landing so you can easily walk for a drink or enjoy the occasional live music from our backyard.

We love that we're less than 5 minutes from Fox Lake, offering another amazing fishing/full rec lake and a quick spot to grab anything we might have forgot.

A Charming Cottage on Beaver Dam Lake
My wife and I had to travel to Beaver Dam Lake for a wedding and decided to try Vbro for the first time. We had a wonderful experience at Kelly and and Joe's cottage. It's a pretty lakeside cottage, fully furnished with a nice kitchen and living room. For those with kids, the second bedroom has a cool bunkbed and roll out bed for three kids. Kelly was great with timely communication. We would definitely recommend this cottage and hope to visit again the next time we are in the area.

Nice little cabin
Very nice, quiet cabin on Beaver Dam lake. Was updated very nicely and has all the furnishings you would need plus more. We were here on some of the hottest days in the year, but air conditioning and fans worked fine. The breeze off the lake and shade trees made it nice to sit outside.

Quiet Place to Get Away
We enjoyed our time at the Quiet Cottage. The space easily accommodated our four adults, one teen, and one child. It was especially nice that the hosts had everything you need to kayak and fish available to use in the boat house. Thanks for a great time!

Family vacation
We wanted a low key, quiet place close to the water and we’re glad we found Sunrise Cottage. We spent most of the time fishing off the dock. Our kids also had fun kayaking. Host was quick to respond if we had a question.

Family vacation
We loved our stay on the lake! The booklet with recommendations were awesome for us never having been to this area! Fox Lake and Beaver Dam were both cool towns to explore! We loved being right on the water, fishing off the dock and enjoying some time out on the kayaks that were provided in the boathouse. Also in the boathouse were a ton of yard games our family had a lot of fun with. We also loved just hanging out around the fire or watching one of the many movies they had. We hope to be back!

Lovely get away
We really enjoyed our weekend. The house is clean and well-furnished. It was a great chance to get away and disconnect. I spent three hours Sunday morning sitting on the dock absorbing everything as the sun rose, various birds came and went, and fish jumped into the air every few minutes. Definitely a wonderful place that we hope to go back to some day.

The cottage house was very comfortable and charming and the views of the lake were beautiful. The surrounding state parks were a treat to venture out to as well. Communication with the owner made the process a breeze.

Beautiful cottage, beautiful setting
We love this place. Just exactly as pictured. Immaculate, well-equipped, beautifully decorated. Comfy beds and soft linens. All the amenities of home. The kayaks and yard games were an added treat. Four different outdoor spaces to enjoy - deck, patio, fire pit, dock. We liked The Boathouse on Fox Lake, just 10 minutes away, and saw lots of wildlife during our day trip to Horicon Marsh. Highly recommend!

Sweet Home on Beaver Dam Lake
Stayed at this precious house this week with family and had a nice stay. Everything you need including fire logs and s’mores fixings for the fire pit. Parked my pontoon at the dock with ease. They provided 2 adult sized kayaks that we used every day.. Kitchen is perfectly stocked. Enjoy!

Great Family Vacation Spot
We stayed with our 4 kids and 2 dogs. Kelly was great to work with, very responsive to all of our questions and also provided a number of activities takin place in the area that we might enjoy. Our kids loved fishing off the dock and swimming in the lake (as did one of our dogs!). Highly recommend this location if you’re looking for a quiet, relaxing stay with your family!
