Social Distance in Our Gorgeous, Private Retreat in the Woods

Rest assured we are taking extra measures to disinfect the property between rental groups.

This cozy cabin in the woods is located atop the beautiful rolling hills of the Driftless area, just outside of Cross Plains, WI. Nestled on 10 acres of forest, this warm rental is the perfect getaway for a private winter weekend away, a nature/yoga/artist retreat, or a road biking vacation. Located just 30 minutes from downtown Madison, you'll have the peaceful living experience, while being just a short drive from the hustle and bustle of Wisconsin's capital city.

Go hiking, snowshoeing, or biking right out of the front door. Visit nearby Mount Horeb, Tyrol Basin, American Player's Theater, or Taliesin. Or just sit by the fire and enjoy complete privacy. Regardless, this cabin will give you everything you need to get away.

About 2,500 square feet with four bedrooms (three with Queen beds and one with bunk beds), the home also includes 3.5 baths, a large dining room, a sunroom, two living room areas, laundry on-site, two large wood stoves, huge decks, high-speed internet (if you must work), and much more.

Comfortable stay
Plenty of space to spread out. Lovely location in the woods. If there had been snow, I’m north sure we could have found the driveway or made it up the hill to the house. Driveway obscured by leaves. A few minor suggestions. Amount of tableware needs to be checked. Not enough for the group. The frying pans do not work on the induction stove. Game cabinets need straightening up and firestarters replenished.

Perfect place for us
Great cabin in a quiet woods. Stayed for four days in early September. We were in Madison for the Ironman. About a 25 min drive to the venue. Cabin is exactly as described in the listing. We did not use grills or fireplace but bedrooms/bathrooms/living spaces were all clean and in good order. Jason was very responsive to questions and gave me updates throughout the week. It's very secluded and no yard so not the best place for younger children who might need outdoor time but perfect for adults who want to get away from the city. I would definitely book this place again if we should decide to return to the area.

Nice stay
Great property. Location is quiet and good for relaxation, yet close enough to restaurants, stores, etc. Unique, nice house. Some cleaning and minor maintenance needed. Host sent rental agreement for signature after payment was made.

Solid if not spectacular
The house itself was pretty good for what we needed - which was mostly a place to sleep. The beds were comfortable, the basement was nicely cooled, and the house was generally clean. However, multiple bathrooms had issues with standing water in the showers. It would drain after you finished, but I'm not a fan of the water pooling around my feet while I shower. Also, while it didn't affect what we wanted to do, a lot of the areas directly around the house were very overgrown with weeds, which was somewhat off-putting. And the main picture displayed is a view of the back of the house, which to me is a bit deceptive, because when you come up on the house, the front is a completely different look. Overall, the house was very nice except those small bathroom issues and some exterior things. Would recommend staying here.
