About this property

Welcome to Glacier Lake Haus!

Looking for a cozy cabin with lake access? Glacier Lake Haus might just be your place! Are you visiting Wisconsin Dells but don't want the "full Dells experience" or are you just looking for a rustic and quiet getaway in Central Wisconsin? Get the best of both worlds while staying at our Glacier Lake Haus! Our cabin is a short 25 minute drive to the Dells and is located just ~3.5 hours from Minneapolis, 3 hours from Chicago, 2 hours from Milwaukee and only 1 hour from Madison! There are things to do year-round while staying at Glacier Lake Haus including; fishing (traditional + ice fishing), swimming, kayaking/canoeing and hunting or snowmobiling.

The cabin features 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths and sleeps 8. There are 4 twin beds, 1 queen as well as a pull out sofa. Enter through the front door to the open-concept first floor kitchen w/ new granite countertops, dining room and living room with a large TV as well as the master bedroom and full bathroom. From there, you'll gravitate towards the large screened-in porch to take in the views of nature as well as views of the lake. The lower level features a walk-out exit and has two bedrooms (2 twin beds in each) and another full bath. There's also a cozy pull out couch and tv for quiet movie nights. Oh, and did we mention that there's high speed fiber internet so streaming video and internet won't be a problem! You can even get some work done if need be!

Glacier Lake Haus is the perfect location for a relaxing vacation or quick getaway in Central Wisconsin. The property is located on Ogle (formally Glacier) Lake. Per the Wisconsin DNR, the lake bed is comprised of 90% sand and is great for fishing (northern pike, bass, crappies and sunfish), kayaking, canoe'ing and swimming. Guests of Glacier Lake Haus are invited to enjoy the lake with the provided kayaks (2), canoe and paddle boat. People hoping to fish are encouraged to bring their own equipment.
Glacier Lake Haus is a welcoming space for a quiet and relaxing family/friends getaway. Sorry, but it's not the place you're looking for if you are looking for big parties or bachelor/bachelorette locations. We hope that all guests will respect the nature as well as the neighbors in the area.

Glacier Lake Haus is a no-smoking house. This includes the screened in porch. Thank you for respecting this request if you decide to book with us!

In regards to pets - no cats allowed. Sorry, we have allergies in the family. Please reach out directly to us in regards to pets prior to booking. Well-behaved dogs are okay with a limit of just one dog per stay.

Great Place For Family Vacation

The cabin was great for our family vacation. We took our son's family along, so there was a total of six people; my husband and myself, our son, his wife, and theirtwo children ages 9 and 7. They also brought their small Yorkie. There are so many fun activities! The children especially enjoyed the outdoor lake; they learned to kayak, stand on an inflatable stand up board, and used the pedal boat and caught MANY fish. The weather was perfect, so we were at the lake every single day of our stay. Inside we also played cards, listened to 70s vinyl records, and the children enjoyed playing the games. With plenty of room to spread out, our son's family stayed downstairs, and we took the upstairs bedroom. Each family had their own bathroom with shower. The kitchen had all the needed pots, pans, plates and utensils. However, the salt, pepper, and other assorted spices left on the counter were completely covered in grease. Perhaps someone left them too close to the stove while cooking. Nevertheless, they should be checked for cleanliness before check-in. Other places we have stayed have also offered the basic condiments such as ketchup and mustard. We bought our own and left them behind for others to use. There were some small beetles which were frequently found crawling on the bathroom, kitchen and bedroom walls. While we know that this cabin is in the woods, perhaps installing a Zevo light or something like that to deter them would be helpful. Path down to the lake is VERY steep!

Quiet retreat

This house was as advertised. It did seem to get a little small with 8 of us; we ranged in age from 16-47. There were a lot of areas to hang out in but none that really fit all of us easily. I LOVED the different decks & porch areas. There is literally something for everyone here: hammocks, games, puzzles, kayaks, etc. The owners thought of everything. It was nice to be able to prepare food & cook with all of the provided dishes. Mosquitos were a problem so they chased us inside quite a few times. The house is a bit from all of the action in the Dells. The owners were great! They responded quickly & continued to answer questions after we checked in.

Many pluses, but be aware

The property was clean and easy to find, located in a comfortable, quiet neighborhood. Facilities, including a comfortable reading chair and light (so rarely found in a rental) and actual wall decorations (another common cost saving) made it homey. Lake is no wake so good for the paddle devices provided, and very clean. But study the pictures of the view of the lake carefully because the stairs go only half way to the lake. There are between 165-172 steps down to/up from the lake, which makes it a trek. However, the day we checked out the cleaning crew was told to come at 10 but the checkout instructions on the refrigerator said 11, so a bit awkward. Most important, and something that must be addressed by the owners, the parking area for the cabin has two tree stumps cut down low in the grassy growth. In doing a Y turn in the driveway I ran over an unseen stump and did $2100 worth of damage to my vehicle. The stumps should be ground down - or at the very least marked with fluorescent tree marking paint and/or utility red/orange/yellow pin flags. The same should be done for the one/two inch stumps on or near the trail to the lake. A simple solution that we used on our roads and trails on our managed forest land (MFL). Not happy with the damage to our car and unexpected expense incurred with a family get together. Note: ceiling fans should be turned counter-clockwise in summer.

Great Lake House!!

If you want to stay outside of the waterpark craziness and enjoy a peaceful setting, this place is it! So much charm and thoughtfulness put into making this a great stay! Loved the lake recreational activities as a bonus. The outside decks and fire pit were a big hit. Would definitely stay again!

Perfect Cabin Get-A-Way Without the Northwoods Drive!

We had a FANTASTIC experience at Glacier Lake Haus - it was the perfect cabin for our family of 5 (including 3 teenagers) to use for a quick weekend away to reconnect during a cold & snowy spring break week 2023. Meticulously clean, equipped with all the modern elements that makes life easy today, and filled with warm, comfy, thoughtful touches and interesting knick knacks too. It was also surprisingly private considering its location on a small yet pretty lake. Nestled at the top of a (steep!) bluff on a wooded lot with waterfront access, we truly felt "away from it all" without having to drive 4+ hours to northern WI. The hosts were great communicators, friendly, and easy to connect with to finalize details. We'd absolutely recommend this location and hope to come back during the summer months to fully enjoy the wonderful screened in porch and the lakefront! 5 STARS!

This is such a beautiful spot!

The property was quiet, peaceful, and sufficiently isolated from neighbors. Some of this may have to do with the time of year , but the trees on the property also serve to separate the house from the rest of the world. We brought one small dog and he loved the environment. Kitchen is fully equipped and the house has many nice decorative touches and amenities We enjoyed the lake, having a fire, and many other indoor and outdoor activities! (45min.Devils Lake state park,35min Mirror lake state park.30 min Wisconsin Dells )We will hopefully be back again next year.
