Amazing House! Perfect Getaway!
We had an awesome stay for my birthday weekend with family. The views were amazing especially when it’s snowing! The house is on 10+ acres so it is very private and feels secluded in the forest. Very cozy cabin feel and the house was very clean. Communication with owner was quick and easy. The location is perfect since it’s close to Dodge Ridge and a casino. There were plenty of towels and extra blankets to accommodate. Plenty of space for dining. The living room was a huge space and the game room was a plus for the kids to hang out. After sharing pics with friends and family I am already getting several requests for the link to stay here!

The perfect Christmas Cabin
We had the best time during our stay and it was perfect for our family to wake up to on Christmas morning. We loved the large dinning room table that we were able to all sit around and enjoy meal times and games! The kitchen was beautiful and we even cooked a full Christmas Dinner easily in the space. The living room has large couches that everyone was able to relax, and everything was decorated so cute with Christmas Decor that made Christmas morning so special. The large game room down stairs was a huge hit between all the kids and adults! There was something for everyone, and the kids were never board. Each bedroom was large and slept our large group very comfortably. One highlight was the nice wrap around porch with an amazing view, and the large driveway that the kids could ride their scooters around on. The toilets even had heated toilet seats, which everyone enjoyed! We were very happy with our experience and would love to book again in the future!

fun family reunion
This property is just perfect for fun! Lots of sleeping space (comfy beds too!) and a fabulous game room downstairs. The kitchen is large enough for multiple cooks with a double oven and fabulous cooktop! The owners have thought of everything that guests might need - even extra snow boots in the garage, which we needed. The views are spectacular and the almost wrap around deck is perfect! Tho there was too much snow for us to enjoy but it's there! We will definitely be coming back!

Wonderful family home and location
It was perfect for our three generation family weekend! Wonderful location! Plenty of room to play and sleep. Game room was great for all ages. Toys much appreciated for littles. We all fit at table and great seating in front room too for our group. Easy and quick drive to snow. We would recommend property and would love to go again in winter or try during summer. Great communication too between property manager. Thank you sharing your home with our family!!

We can’t thank Ken And Peggie enough for opening up their amazing cabin for our family to make such wonderful memories. Every aspect of the cabin is warm and inviting and the Christmas 🎄 decorations made it even more charming. We had 8 adults and 2 children, plenty of room for us all. We woke up to it snowing and an inch of snow on the ground, it was magical. Ken was a very receptive host and made sure we had everything we needed. We will be booking again next year

Twain Harte Moose lodge
Clean, large, fully stocked and an ideal location within a forest but still close to the grocery store or restaurants. It's an easy drive in and out. No snow this time but Ken mentioned that the main roads are all plowed during the snow season, all the way up to the driveway. The driveway is spacious and level. Game room was a hit with the whole family and the beds are extremely comfortable. A great stay and hope to be back. Thanks, Ken and Peggie

Beautiful house in a wonderful area!
Can't recommend enough this incredible house for big groups. We had 10 (8 adults, 2 children) and had plenty of space for everyone. The house has every amenity you could think of from kitchen tools to extra towels/blankets/etc. The large living room is perfect for lounging around, the deck has a spectacular view of the valley, and the game room is amazing! We really enjoyed our stay, and Ken was very responsive to every question we had. Would definitely stay here again!

Quiet and Peaceful
This property was very clean and comfortable. Part of our group was off doing things meaning we were close to National and State Parks, while part of the group just hung out. The house has beautiful views and was a peaceful place to chill. The game room was great especially for our grandkids ages 6-14. There was regular communication with the owners which was good. If we head back to the area in the future, we will definitely rent this property again. It is a great price for what you get.

We had a great time at the property. Check in is smooth and the instructions booklet has great tips on thing to do around the area. The game room is amazing. Kitchen is well stocked. There is an infrared cooler which is fantastic as the grill is not impressive. Also a bit disappointed on the absence of cable TV . We were not able to watch NBA eastern final played on ESPN.

A trip we will cherish for a lifetime!
Great location! We were looking for a place that was not too far from the lakes and at the same time would be a short drive to the mountains for some snow activity. With a large group, we were looking for a place which was amidst nature and at the same time had amenities for a comfortable stay. The Wilderness lodge was the right choice! Everything about the lodge was more than what we had envisioned. We could see the tasteful decor and detail in everything that was part of the lodge. The family loved the kitchen area, dining, sit-outs and most importantly the game-room. I have never seen a more elaborate collection of board games and puzzles as we did at the wilderness lodge. Thank you Ken! We will be back again.
