(*off-season October-May)
Welcome to our cabin tucked away on 50 acres of mixed woods interspersed with riding/walking leisure trails. One mile from Jackson County State ATV/Snowmobile trails with access via ATV road routes. Minutes from downtown Black River Falls, Lake Wazee Rec Park, Robinson creek & numerous fishing areas!
After a day of adventures (or relaxation), you'll want to gather around the fire pit while counting the numerous stars and hearing the coyotes sing in the distance. You might even hear a wolf howl or an Elk bugle?!
We have 3 bedrooms that sleep a total of 9 adults. In the master bedroom, there is a queen bed and a private bathroom with a shower. Bedrooms 1 and 2 both have a bunk bed with a double on the bottom and a single on the top. Bedroom 1 has a pull-out trundle bed. Bedroom 2 has a toddler mattress and a pack-and-play available. Bedroom 2 also has a stack washer/dryer as well.
The family room has a full wall of windows to enjoy the pine views and let in an ample amount of sunshine throughout the day. There is a large sectional with an ottoman, an antenna TV that gets all the local channels and a DVD/Blue Ray player with a DVD collection. There is also a variety of games.
The Kitchen has a full-sized refrigerator, electric stove/oven, and microwave. We also have the basics for cooking your own meals. (pots, pans, utensils, bowls, plates & silverware.) We just ask that you clean and return anything you use. **Full disclosure, we do have well water and the iron content is more prevalent in this area so sometimes the water isn't super clear. We do have a water filter otherwise bottled water might be a good idea. We have never had an issue or any problems with the well water.
Outside we have a fire pit, lawn chairs, a picnic table, and a gas grill available. Please cover the woodpile and return the chairs when you are done so we can keep everything dry. We do have a large pole shed that we keep locked up as we have items in there that we want to keep secure.
Feel free to explore the trails whether you are walking, biking, snowshoeing or skiing. We ask our ATV guests to refrain from riding on our trails other than at slower speeds. We don't want our trails to get torn up and we want to keep people safe on our property. The boundary lines are marked so please be mindful of those. You may ride your ATV's directly to the Jackson Co. trails which are a mile away down both Dodge road and Oak Ridge road. Our roads are ATV posted so there is no need to trailer your ATV's. Jackson Co. has some fantastic trails and they connect all the way up to Clark Co. so you can ride until your heart is full!! (Or your butt is sore ;-)
We are nestled on the south loop of the Jackson Co. ATV trail system. a 1-mile drive down dodge road to the west takes you to one trail entrance, a 1-mile drive down Oak Ridge Road to the north takes you to another trail entrance. You can also go further down Dodge road to Robinson Creek where there are beautiful cliffs and rushing waters. Grab a couple of lawn chairs and a cooler and sit in the spring-fed creek on a hot day to cool off. You can also kayak/canoe the creek or venture to the Black River for a nice paddle as well. We have numerous trails throughout the 50 acres that you can explore. You will find various species of Pine, Oak, Maple, Poplar, and Birch trees. Blue Jays and the Karner Blue Butterflies are common. We often see deer, turkey, porcupines, and an occasional fisher wander through.
We are about 10 mins from downtown Black River Falls where you can stroll through the picturesque downtown. Sand Creek Brewery has tours and a tasting room or visit a number of quaint bar & grills in the area. Black River Falls is also home to the FIelds of Honor Veterans Memorial near the Dam. You can also see the Native American influence by driving east to the Andrew Blackhawk Pow Wow grounds. You can also visit the Ho-Chunk Casino in the same area as well.
In the summer you can find a beach at Lee Lake, Lake Wazee Co. park, or enjoy the Hoffman aquatics center in Black River Falls. The park also has a large playground, skate park, and sledding hill.
You can visit the Lunda Community Center where they have an indoor aquatics park, fitness center, basketball courts, indoor golf simulator, racquetball, and a rock climbing wall.
Every season has its unique charm in this area. We have found it to be a fantastic getaway and we enjoy learning new things about the area each year.
We hope you enjoy the relaxing pocket of the woods we have here. Adventure on!!
