Roughing it
If you're looking for a place just to sleep and be one with nature this is it! Kinda like glamping. There was mice poop everywhere, it's that time of year, didn't scare us. But their was no forks, towels, napkins, they only provided 1 trash bag we went through in a hurry and had to use grocery bags for garbage. Ran to gas station for forks and paper towels. The oven dorsnt wirk, so took 4 hours tobake a 20min bitter braid. Other than thst a good place to rough it and relax

Quiet rustic retreat
Except for what seemed like a lot of traffic for a country gravel road here in wisconsin, it was very peaceful. Night was quiet and comfortable. Had a nice fire outside and cabin was warm inside. Comfortable beds. Slight gas smell when we entered, but it seemed to dissipate once place was opened up. Attic type ladder to upper sleeping area was pretty shaky so I recommend using outside steps. Porta potties clean and fresh. An outside motion light would be nice for those who might need to venture to the potty in the night. All in all it fit our needs and we would not hesitate to stay again should the opportunity arise.

Would book again
A really awesome spot with a great view and porch. Quiet street, beautiful river. If you’re looking for romantic or upscale this isn’t it. The bathroom is an outdoor shower with no warm water and a portapotty. No dish soap to do dishes. Ladder going upstairs could use some work. This spot has its quirks but it’s an awesome stay for a group of friends who are after trout or the outdoor getaway in general.

Guy camping
Great location for our annual guy camping trip! An upgrade from our last rustic cabin! Running water and a full size fridge were a big plus. Oven didn't work great but the stovetop did. We will be back.

Birthday get away
My son turned 10 and for his birthday wanted to go to a cabin and fish all wknd with a couple friends. This cabin was perfect, they could wake up and walk right out to the river and fish at their leisure.
The property is beautiful, the 'cabin' is ok, the deck & picnic table are awesome, the hammock even better! A mouse lives in a drawer. 🐭 Typically, a VRBO has 'a few necessities.' This place had literally nothing, not even a towel....no hot water in the outdoor shower, though the shower is uniquely cool. I don't even know if the ancient A/C upstairs works, but, there is no where to plug it in anyway. Someone used an extension strip at some point and it is fried to a crisp. There are several safety/maintenance issues that should absolutely be addressed. Side note: If it was my place, I'd make up all the beds instead of leaving each bed (except 1) stripped with all the bedding piled on each bed.....looked a bit like a flop house. Nonetheless, we LOVE the Driftless and had a great time!

Fun and relaxing
Great time, if you are looking for a somewhat rustic adventure this is the place, definitely will stay again!!!
Downfalls were a lot of traffic on the road and a few mice in the cabin.
Pictures are better than reality-Porta potty outside as well a shower hooked up to outside of cabin. There are also safety violations and no key to lock door from the outside. We left early and tried phone number on sign to let someone know-no answer.

I read the reviews after purchasing stay. I am very glad that we brought our own space heater.
There is no WiFi.
It’s a true rustic experience.

Overall, the cabin worked well for us and we enjoyed our stay albeit a few quirks.
The cabin worked well for us and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The listing does make it seem more isolated than what it really is as there were people camping on both sides of the cabin less than 100 yards away. We also had to throw some food away due to mice getting into it.
At the end of the day, the place is what you make of it and we didn’t allow certain things to affect our stay.

Our Kickapoo adventure
We stayed at the Hobbit cabin with 4 adults and 3 children. This cabin had something for everyone. The Pac Man machine was a hit for both young and old. The river was great for tubing, catching crayfish, splashing around and cooling down on our end of summer adventure. The fire pit doubled as a grill and we cooked all of out meals over the camp fire. The kids were so sad when the weekend ended, but we plan on returning to this destination in the future. Memories were made and hopefully there will be more to come.
