About this property

Star Hawk Springs Chateaux - Large 6 Bdrm Retreat

The Chateaux is a large rural property with a wildflower field, an outdoor bonfire area and a spacious guest condo offering 6 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, a Great Room and a kitchen that seats sixteen. Deer and foxes love to visit the wildflower field, and there are two large state parks and the Mississippi River within 25 minutes for hiking, fishing, boating and exploring. The Chateaux is a great fit for family and friend groups.

In addition to the lovely bedrooms and living room, there's a full kitchen if you'd like to cook on site, including a full compliment of pots, pans, bakeware, dishes, silverware, etc. We do provide dish soap, spices, oil and a small selection of tea. Bring your own coffee supplies, food, beverages, firewood, sunblock and mosquito repellant. We also provide towels for use in the home, soap, and shampoo and conditioner for you to use during your stay.

The guest wing is comfortable without being modern, and great for relaxing after a fun-filled day outside or at the local auto museum, monolithic monuments, ice cream shops or other adventures. Please note that while the bedrooms and bathrooms are updated, the Great Room and kitchen are not recently renovated and have the building's original feel and design, including original flooring. Please also note that the Chateaux is home to three other separate residences which share walls with the guest wing. Please review the House Rules regarding quiet hours.

Winona family weekend

Pretty unique property in a calming remote area with rolling hills & wildlife. It looks to have some renovations taking place and could use more. Maybe the time of the year in the country or not knowing when the unit was occupied last…lots dead flies on the ground & many more in the bead rooms flying around?!?! However the value of the rental for number of people it can sleep is good vs the cost! The hosts were very responsive!

Just right for our clan!

What we needed was a place large enough for the 18 members of our extended family to relax without feeling crowded, and plenty of room for 7 little cousins to play. The kids loved the big grassy field; we brought along an inflatable wading pool and lots of outdoor activities. Indoors they decided that the second-floor balcony was ideal for putting on "puppet shows" with their stuffed animals to entertain the adults in the great room below. The property is showing its age*, but Julia was immediately responsive to any glitch or question we had. If shiny resort life is your thing, the Chateaux is probably not for you--but if you have happy memories of sleep-away camp, you'll do just fine! *Note: the bathrooms are all updated and very clean. It was the basement kitchen that to us was the greatest drawback.

Great size for our family of 10

We could spread out as needed with 6 bedrooms on 2 levels. Little kids went to bed (and woke up) early upstairs. Nice, renovated bathrooms. Kitchen facilities were convenient for food prep and eating together, once we adjusted to the basement location. We loved the green vista out back. All of us enjoyed being outside with the birds and playing in the grass. We would recommend accessing the property via WI 95 and county Rd P from Fountain City.

Jill is amazing

We had a blast in Fountain City at the Chateau. Me and some friends went out to be secluded and have a fun time playing yard games and get away from the city life. Jill and the maintenance man, Tom, were a pleasure to talk to and deal with. We also had plenty of space inside and outside where 8 people could comfortable be able to fit and relax. there are a few things in the place that could be updated, but other than that the place was great.

Beautiful Family Space

Able to bring our extended family with lots of young kids and all had a great time. Rooms just off great room made it easy for adults to put kids to bed and stay in one space together. Loved the fire pit and there was a grove of pine trees that made a perfect hammock hanging location.
