Only two vehicles are allowed to park in designated spots.

Guests have access to entire house. Guests may fish off a section of piers that are walking distance from home. Do not walk on or fish off piers past where the RV trailers begin.

Guests are not allowed to walk on piers in winter months. Guests are not allowed to walk on ice. Please do not throw rocks on ice or water as it may cause damage to boats and props.

Cozy little place to stay

We enjoyed the cottage a lot! The host was fantastic! The only thing that bothered us a bit was all the air conditioners and dehumidifier. The place smelled a bit musty.

Cozy home

We loved our brief stay at Jordyn’s cozy home. It had everything that we expected and a bit more. It was the perfect space for our family of 4. Jordyn’s commitment to communication prior to and during our stay was very helpful and appreciated. I would recommend this home and look forward to considering it again if we come back to this area.

Great Stay

This stay was wonderful. We came for the Crossfit Games and it was perfect. A little further out if Maddison than we would've liked, but the price was great and we knew the distance before we booked. No issues calling Ubers out there which was great. House was clean and cool (was worried about that because it was so hot and humid) but we had no issues with that. Jordyn was lovely. Would totally stay again!

UWM college visit

This property is in a suburb of Madison on a lake only about 15 from UWM campus. It is an easy commute and was nice to have a place to come to and relax after our very busy days of checking out Madison and campus. Jordyn is an excellent host who communicates very well and is very hospitable! The home was clean and so welcoming!!! We had a lovely stay! Thank you! If you don't want to stay in a hotel I would definitely recommend!

Quick weekend stay

Needed a place to stay for a quick weekend trip to attend our god daughters University of Madison's graduation. Jordyn was quick to communicate and so sweet to have handwritten notes welcoming us. There were snacks that were an ultimate hit with my son and the all sorts of coffee at the ready that thrilled my husband and I. Place was clean, stocked with extra towels and blankets, pillows. Though not needed, appreciated for the option. Accessible to the highway, the drive into downtown was easy! Recommend as 5 stars!

Responsive Host

Overall we enjoyed our stay. The owner was very responsive to questions and let us check in early. Other than it rained for 24 hours the second day we were there (owner can't control that) our only disappointment was not being able to watch the Packer opening game day there. The place has Roku and a couple other TV subscriptions but no local stations so we had to go elsewhere to watch the game.

Ironman base camp

We were in the area for Ironman Wisconsin. Jordyn’s place was perfect for the four of us. It was 20 minutes from the race transition area. It was nice and quiet and all the people we met there were super friendly. Jordyn went above and beyond our whole stay. Her place was clean, comfortable and just what we were looking for. There was a full fridge with a freezer, stove, oven, microwave, coffee maker, and toaster. There were board games for rainy days. The beds were comfortable with lots of pillows. We had a lovely note and basket waiting for us when we arrived. The patio in front of the cottage was a great place to sit out and read or use the fire table. I would highly recommend a stay here.

Perfect spot

Such a cute spot! We were in town for a football game in Madison, it was only a 25 min commute to and from the city. The cottage was clean and perfect for what we needed. We arrived in the dark and went into the wrong driveway, the people from the camp ground were very nice and pointed us in the right direction. Jordyn was quick to respond and very nice. The wine bar next door is so cute, a local spot where everyone knows everyone but they were beyond friendly! Wish we would have had more time to enjoy the lake.

4th of July

We stayed at the cottage over the holiday weekend and had a great time! The cottage is perfect for a group of 4 and was so nice to have access to dock our boat. The cottage is very clean and it was great to have the window AC- it keeps the space very comfortable for summer months. We brought our own tailgate grill and enjoyed grilling on the front patio. It was a great stay!
