great spot
This ranger house is in a beautiful location and with 2.5 bathrooms and 3 bedrooms plus extra space, it is perfect for a family or group. Everything was very clean. The location in the park/woods is lovely. Our only issues were that there was no dish soap or dishwasher soap left for us.

Disc golf weekend
This is an annual event for us now. Everyone enjoys the disc golf course and the trails. We have also lucked out with beautiful weather the past two years and have spent hours around the fire, playing croquet and tossing footballs with the kids.

Sandy Knoll Wedding Use
We used the house to assist with storage and a place to get dressed for a wedding held at The Barn at Sandy Knoll. The groomsmen were able to get ready at the house while the ladies were getting ready at the barn. It was very helpful to have the space. I highly recommend it.

Sandy Knoll Ranger Home
A wonderful and quiet place to relax and unwind. The home is clean and spacious, with a large outdoor wooded yard. Convenient to West Bend and all the amenities of the county park. Our pup also loved being close to the dog park where she met many new friends.

Good location
It was so nice to be able to stay just one minute away from the barn that we had our daughter’s wedding in. Very roomy for the groomsmen to spread out and get ready for the day. Beds for 7 but could have fit seven more on air mattresses if needed. Nothing fancy at all just convenient and big! Very friendly staff too😀

Plenty of space
We had a great time visiting family over the fourth. This is a great option with a playground and dog park within walking distance. We went to the dog park daily. The grounds of the house had plenty of shade and a picnic table. The trees are perfect distance for putting up a hammock or two! We didn’t use the fire pit, but it looked very nice. Plenty of dishes in the large kitchen as well as a dining table. Only negatives were very minimal, there were dirty dishes in the dishwasher, which was a quick fix and there were no kids channels on the tv. Other than those very small items, everything else was perfect! We had a great time.

Always a good time at the Ranger House
Our 2nd stay. First one was in winter. Early summer was wonderful! Great home for an extended family visit with lots of elbow room. Glad there were patio chairs. Enjoyed evenings on the deck, the fire pit and disc golf. Loads of towels and dishes of all types. The toilets and the kitchen sink were not clean at check in, but there were cleaning supplies on hand for me to take care of that. Check out list was reasonable: sweep, wipe surfaces, run dishwasher and take out trash.

Ranger House West Bend Wi
Very relaxing stay Sam the property manager was excellent and helpful. Television was extremely difficult to operate as well as WIFI. Needs curtains and blinds on sliding door for privacy. Beyond this very well maintained grounds and so convenient to West Bend. I added a night and having a problem trying to pay for last night. We plan on returning if these issues can be resolved.

Had everything we needed
Although the interior could use some serious updating, we wanted for nothing because everything that we could have wanted or needed was there, minus a few more dish towels. Clean, orderly. Nice to have multiple bathrooms. Nearby dog park was always very busy.

Disc golfing Thanksgiving
Great time staying at the Sandy Knoll Ranger house over Thanksgiving. Communication during booking and prior to arrival was excellent. It was super fun to be able to walk out the door to such a beautiful park and disc golf course. We would definitely consider staying again in the future.

All that we require!
We rented the Ranger Cabin for the third year. All is us are into disk golfing and the Anfänger course begins literally a few yards from the house. Beautiful surroundings and should anyone need anything at all, town is 10 minutes away although you are unaware of that during your stay. The house is the most luxurious "cabin" ever, with every amenity and all that anyone could require! Lots of fun, lots of disk golf and many campfires.

Incredible setting
This park is beautiful! Interesting variety of trails, gorgeous dog park, lovely pond and barn, disc golf, birds galore… stunning. We visited when autumn leaves were at their peak and it was delightful. The house was clean, retro, quiet, solid, secure, well-equipped. Would stay again and would recommend to others. We brought drinking water and were glad we did as the house water has a strong iron-like odor. Great communication with property manager. Check-in and out was simple.
