About this property

Rustic Lake home Retreat

Completely remodeled lake home with access to beautiful Lake Koshkonong.
Main floor has a fully equipped kitchen with granite counter tops and all new stainless appliances, island and dining that seats 9 people easily.
The main floor master bedroom has a king size bed, private bathroom and walk out deck, along with a futon in the living room. A washer and dryer are located on the main floor for your convenience.
The second floor boasts a large family room with an impressive stone wood burning fireplace the whole family can enjoy.

The upstairs bedrooms will sleep up to 4 people comfortably with a queen bed in each room.
All beautifully decorated with a contemporary rustic feel.

Situated 34 minutes from Madison and 15 minutes from Janesville, there is plenty to see and do.
Launch your boat from the area boat launch for tubing, skiing or fishing and take a tour of this 10,000 acre lake. This lake has phenomenal fishing and is one of the top 10 walleye lakes in Wisconsin.
If you get hungry stop at one of the many bars on the lake for great food and entertainment!

For winter fun bring your snowmobiles! We are just off the state trails!

In a quiet, peaceful location, this year round home has something for everyone. Whether on the go or kicking back enjoying a cozy fire in the fireplace, this home is perfect for you!

UPDATE : Our home is located just across the street from the lake. We have lake access via a private beach everyone in the area uses. We do not have a dock for your use.
You can see the sign for the access from the road to the left of the house.
When using the beach please be mindful of others who may be using it as well. Use proper etiquette, respect others, leash your dogs, control the language used and ensure you clean up the area when you leave.

Great stay!

The home was clean and well stocked with essentials, including some breakfast items (super helpful since we arrived late in the evening). Plenty of hang out space on the main level or upstairs with the shuffle board table. Very short walk to a small beach park area and about 10-15 minute drive to town. Great coffee spot and ice cream place in town! Easy to rent a pontoon boat and lake wasn’t super crowded on a Friday afternoon in July.

Cozy and clean

During this COVID time we were debating weather or not to leave the safety of our home but with how immaculately clean the house was, we were put at ease that we would be safe and could relax and enjoy the cozy place and lovely lake. We appreciated all of the extra amenities. We thoroughly enjoyed our cozy stay and would definitely return.

Seems as if the cleaning crew didn’t clean up everything prior our stay. Dirt and dead bugs all on the floor. Towels left in the laundry room. The door is hard to open. We did like the coffee they had for us. Just wished it was cleaner. We wished this was a lake view property, you can’t see the lake from the house. We really couldn’t relax due to fear of the neighbor. Who seems to have issues in the pass with guests at the house.

Perfect Winter Family Getaway

This was a lovely property and online description/photos were spot on. Visited with my adult children and we had plenty of room to spread out or be together. Nice fireplace for cold winter nights and the shuffleboard game was a big hit. Loved the upstairs frig to store beer and pop for our game times with room to spread out snacks on top. Large kitchen for cooking family meals was well stocked (and we have a chef in the family). Owner was very responsive to messages with questions. Only small suggestion would be some plain Keurig coffee pods for those purists who aren't fans of flavored coffee. Thanks for a lovely weekend family outing. Would highly recommend!

Very nice stay

The Rustic Lake Home was just as described. The house was very clean, quite inviting and well-stocked with all necessary items needed. Our GPS brought us straight to the front door. The only hesitancy we had was getting used to a 3-second hold time in electronically securing the front door. There was definitely more living space available than needed for our party of four. The upstairs game room was also a welcome attraction for us all. Our evening trip to the Fort Atkinson Fireside was just 11 miles away. This is a house that you can be confident in what the Vrbo listing says about it. All-in-all, a well needed respite for a little time off.

Very nice house

Very nice house. One of the most well equipped houses I've booked. Im still giving it 5 stars, but the one thing i didnt care for was the fact that the thermostat is controlled by the host, remotely. It was 90 to 100 degrees out and the house was constantly at 76 degrees. Now thats hood when you first step in, but for sleeping, not so much. I did reach out to the host and got a response that it would be lowered, but it soon reset itself back. Again, great house, great amenities. Just hot!

Edgerton disappointed

Overall, I have to admit disappointment with this rental. I thought the house not very well cleaned prior to arrival. The cooking pots and pans are very worn. Glasses in the cupboard not clean. The beds were comfortable and the choice of pillows abundant. Had I known of the neighborhood prior to renting I would definitely not have chosen the unit. And as for a lake house, you can see the lake across the street and we were hoping for on the lake access.

Just what we needed

Great stay and the property had everything we needed. The only thing to be aware of is the neighbor across the street didn’t seem very happy with the VRBO situation. We needed to reverse in to the driveway (rather than pull in) to avoid hitting the garbage cans and their trailer hitch that sticks out. He told me I “drove on his property” (which I absolutely did not) and proceeded to yell at me in front of my whole family and children about disrespect. I tried to make peace and was absolutely calm with him but he was not interested. Caught me off guard and I was shaken up by his crude and inconsiderate reaction. All in all would recommend. Very suitable for a week long stay.

Uncomfortable stay

Property was pretty, but the renter would not let you control your temperature of the house by yourself. They set it to what they thought it should be and had the control locked so u could not change it. Kind of ridiculous to have to send messages to try and get it changed every time you wanted it cooler. You pay that much a day to be uncomfortable!!!
