Summer Stay: Welcome to Beach Lake Cottage! We love it here!

We love summer's at the cottage. Enjoy our sandy beach while watching the kids play for hours on end. For water toys, we have the following: 4-youth kayaks, 2-paddle board SUP and a 4 person paddle boat, (2) Teen/Adult Kayaks with new comfy seats, and misc. floaties and toys for the kids. A new bouncy the kids will love! An outdoor shower to wash off all the sand too. For beach games we have Corn Hole boards, Spike Ball, and Beersbee (plus more games) you will have a blast if you decide to just hangout at Beach! Then at night bring out our firepit for smores and look up at millions of stars at night. Firewood is provided of course. Or use the propane fire-patio table on the main deck for late night chats. The kids can fish with the poles in our cottage, they just restocked the lake with Blue Gill and Perch (catch and release). For those rainy or cold days, we have TONS of board/dice games plus a Xbox Kinect and plenty of games for the kids to play or adults. Foosball Table. Also Legos and a ton of crafts for the littles, located in the 2nd guest bed upstairs. Misc toys too in the kids room. And of course adult games! Found under the dinette table or in the guest bed upstairs. Dogs are allowed for an additional fee ($150) for cleaning, one dog max.

All LG appliances with gas cook top, not ceramic. New 14 Cup coffee maker and Keurig 10 Oz option, then enjoy the coffee supplied or K-Pod, or bring your own. Super Hi-Speed internet and streaming in all rooms. Also added an Airfryer to cook up bacon or chicken nuggets quick and no mess!

Our cottage has one King, 2-Queen, and the Bunk Beds sleep 6 (Full over Full over Full Trundle), Sleeper Couch and extra full mattress stored. The house can sleep six adults comfortably, the new full bunk beds allow for up to six kids. We have a very large living room and basement with multiple tables for kids and family to gather. The extra mattress and couch topper would allow more guests too. Max 12 people, can not go over. Room Darkening Shades in all bedrooms.

Newly installed LEVEL 2-for faster charging: F240V 50A NEMA 14-50 outlet inside garage. Use our supplied workersbee charger, see pic, for free charging during your stay. Garage is also insulated and heated.

For grilling, you can either use the large Weber grill with supplied charcoal or for those BBQ fans, use our smoker with pellets provided.

Our Beach Cottage is located right down the road from Castle Rock Lake — close to the Dirty Turtle Bar & Marina, Pine Cove (best smash burgers), Shipwreck and area beaches, lakeside restaurants, with excellent boating on Castle Rock. We launch our boat right down the street or you can launch at the Dirty Turtle. Bring your poles because there is excellent fishing on Castle Rock, Walleye abound. There is also an excellent walking path (about a 1.5 miles) right along the river leading out to Castle Rock that we can help you get to, perfect for a family hike! Let me know and I'll send a google map link.

Nearby attractions include championship golf courses like Sand Valley and Northern Bay Resort with its replica courses, and for a quick golf trip you are less than 10 min from Castle Rock Course. Explore Buckhorn state park that hosts the largest Wildlife refuge: https://www.fws.gov/refuge/necedah/. Elroy Bike Trail can be accessed from Camp Douglas 15 min away on the Omaha bike trail or drive right to Elroy. Plenty of canoeing / kayaking on the Wisconsin and Lemonwier Rivers, All this, and only 30 minutes from the Wisconsin Dells experience! Relaxation or exhilarating activities await.

Just over 2 Hours from Milwaukee, and 3 to 3-1/2 hours from Chicago.

The house does have security cameras looking outside.

*Owners do use the cottage during the year, extra dressers are added for your stay*

Winters at Beach Cottage are great. I try to plow the ice when we stay so you can use the ice skates (many adult and kids sizes) but feel free to use the shovels in the garage to clear a path too. I will check the thickness of the ice as winter progresses and will update any stays upcoming once I know it is safe. We like to bring our fire pit down to the lake and have the kids skate. The hill is excellent for sledding down and have sleds plus a strap in snow board for the kiddos. Warm up to the fire place and hot coco provided for the Keurig. Buckhorn also offers free snow shoe rentals so enjoy the peace of the winter trails. Or we are right off Snowmobile trails too. Stay for meat raffles too at the local pubs.

Everything we needed
I've stayed at my fair share of vrbo's and many of them require an extra run to the grocery store to pick up missing necessities like coffee, or salt- that was not the case here. It helped that the owners really do live here, as we were not wanting for anything. The beach was perfect and full of activities for the kids (our four year old and two teens.) Adults had plenty of space to relax and enjoy. It's close to the Dells area and hiking opportunities so we had a mix of relaxation and getting out. We celebrated my in laws 50th anniversary as a family and they loved every moment- highly recommend!

Rest & Relaxation with Great Beach Area
Recently stayed three nights at this property (Aug 2024), location was fantastic & the beach area was perfect for a family. Jeff (owner) was easy to work with and very accommodating. He's got the house fully stocked, all the way down to wood for your bonfire and K-Pods for your morning coffee. We vacationed with our family of five, along with our dog - and loved the house. We spent most our time swimming, kayaking or paddle boarding and enjoyed having dinner on the elevated deck as the sun set each day. There's a grocery store less than 10-miles away, and Castle Rock Lake is minutes away from the house so if you have a boat or want to rent one, be sure to check it out. If you're looking for a nice, relaxing getaway that's perfect for both young and old, don't hesitate to book Jeff's house - he's a great host and has a great location. Thanks for opening your house to us Jeff!

I Wouldn't Stay Here Unless.....
...unless you love beautifully appointed accommodations with every amenity and then some available, direct and friendly communications with the host, and a relaxing vacation spent with friends and family. This home is immaculate with plenty of space to spread out and enough entertainment choices (indoors and out) to keep everyone happy. Several hiking and picnic opportunities are nearby, should you opt for non water activities, and if you're not cooking, great restaurant choices are also fairly close. Questions are answered promptly and thoroughly. I honestly can't think of any way our experience could be improved upon. Thanks for a wonderful time!

Jeff was easy to work with and made sure we had all information needed. The house and beach were perfect for a family, all were clean. Tons of water toys like a paddle boat for example. The house overlooks the water and just relaxing on the patio is nice. If it rains, he’s got all the streaming channels inside. I look forward to returning.

We've really enjoyed staying here, several times now. The house is great, well kept, with plenty of space and amenities. The lake is small, so you don't have the same safety concerns for children as you do with a larger lake. The owners seem to take a lot of pride in the home and the experience they provide. They're also very quick to respond if you need anything or have questions.

Relaxing family getaway!
We really enjoyed our stay at this lake house! Beautiful house with great amenities. Clear and detailed instructions which were very helpful and a very friendly host who was readily available for questions or issues. Would definitely recommend for families and even an adult getaway. Fishing right on the lake outside was so much fun and the kids enjoyed all the water toys. Will definitely be back for another stay!

Great family weekend getaway
Our kids came together from various places throughout the Midwest to celebrate dad's birthday, with the intent of bicycling on the beautiful Elroy-Sparta bike trail (highly recommend!). We didn't have time to enjoy the waterfront and water toys though on Sunday morning before we needed to leave, spent time on the deck and on the beach in the sun, enjoying the quiet unique waterfront. We think it's a great place to stay with children with easy, safe access to water fun! The house served us well - great accomodations and pretty well-appointed kitchen - relaxing and fun. Thanks!

We spent a long weekend with family (4 adults and 2 kids - 3 yrs & 6 yrs) and had a wonderful time! The house was super clean with plenty of space for everyone. The beds were comfy and the house had all the amenities you could think of. Communicate with the owner was top notch. Our whole family enjoyed the kayaks, SUPs, peddleboat, and the fire pit on the deck. The kids loved playing with the sand toys, as well as, all of the games and toys inside. We can't wait to visit again! P.S. We tried the Dirty Turtle for dinner one night. The food and drinks were great, but the service was REALLY slow.

We enjoyed the property and all the recreational equipment the hosts generously made available to us. Although it was already becoming a little more chilly season wise, we still had fun on the beach and cozied up to the many fire options both inside and out. We look forward to going back one day.
