Caballete is a Rustic Retreat located in one of the most beautiful ridge lines in Jackson County. It has been family owned and maintained for several generations.

Three multi-level decks, a Weber charcoal grill, stone camp fire pit with all the charcoal and wood provided. Unique rooms include a Stone Floor Sunken Den, Music Room with tuned Piano, Library and TV Room with Two Story wall of Books both old and new.

Caballete Retreat ~ About us: ~This Rustic Retreat is located in one of the most beautiful ridgelines in Jackson County. Owned by Dan & Sara Scholze, and managed Sara, Caballete Retreat (Caballete is Spanish for 'ridge') is large enough to accommodate up to eight (8) guests comfortably. (Additional Guests by prior approval only please) The Valley and Ridges Surrounding have been kept in the family for several generations. Caballete Retreat is a 'Home' more so than a Cabin or Retreat and was lived in full time up until the Fall of 2005.

A Secluded, Private, Ridge Retreat: ~Need to Relax? You've picked the right place. Nestled into the Ridges, this Retreat offers a secluded, very quiet and private get-away. Wildlife abounds with birds, squirrels, deer, turkey, and you might even see the elusive red fox, or a Big Buck just yards from the home.

~Hiking the Ridges is allowed, but please obey all No Trespassing Signs, as we want to respect the neighbors land.

~There is a Beautiful Library with a two story wall filled with shelves of books, photos, and other unique items. Another Highlight is the Sunken Den with a Stone Floor made of Actual Stones dug from the area, and a beautiful Wood Floor. One final special room is the Music Room, where a Large Piano (and it's tuned!) awaits the right person to make some beautiful relaxing music.

Everything but your Food & Drink....: ~All Linens (Sheets), Towels, Hand Towels, and Wash Cloths are provided at NO extra charge. There are dishes available and a few pots and pans for cooking. All we ask is you treat them as your own, and please leave for the next guests to enjoy.

~No Food or Drink is provided, other than the fresh spring water from the well. Local phone service and local TV Channels are provided along with DSL Wireless Internet.

~Outside there are Three multi-level Decks, with a Weber grill awaiting some juicy Steaks (Charcoal included)! A stone camp fire pit can be found with plenty of room to relax around the fire or lay in the hammock. Once again, all the wood provided.

We loved it!

5 of 5
Submitted: August 26, 2008 Stayed: August 2008
What we loved most was the solitude of Caballete Retreat! There wasn't another home or cabin within a 1/2 mile. It was beautifully wooded. The cabin was very clean! The kitchen and bathroom had absolutely everything we needed. (plenty of towels, washclothes...dishes, pans, etc). We slept 10 comfortably. The fire pit was HUGE and they supplied an unlimited amount firewood. My ONLY complaint was that the firepit was on a slight hill and I would worry about youngsters or older people losing their balance around it, but the owners said they are thinking of leveling off that area. I loved the numerous decks and the numerous bird feeders. Ten different varieties of birds entertained us every morning with our coffee on the deck!There are plenty of cozy sitting rooms within the cabin if you wanted to get away from everybody and read a good book or have a private conversation. The pictures on the website really don't do it justice. We fell in love with it the moment we walked in! They even have a hammock near the fire pit! I hihgly recommend Caballete Retreat. I plan on going back! If you get tired of the peace and quiet, Black River Falls offers a LOT of activities like canoeing, kayaking, golfing, etc. There is something for everyone!

Owner's Response: If you’re looking for a quiet relaxing place to unwind with Family and Friends, we welcome your visit. Located on a Dead End Road and the only Cabin Rental we have, you won't be disturbed by traffic driving by or other vacationing guests. Only a short 10 minute drive from Black River Falls, we are close to most any activities you would like to do during the day, and then get back to relax for the afternoon or evening around the fire or sit out on the back deck watching the wildlife. We appreciate our guests’ suggestions and are always looking to make your next stay even more enjoyable than the last. Thank you!!

Lovely wooded spot, great for my family of 4 and 2 dogs. We enjoyed the woods, the firepit and playing board games at the cozy kitchen table. The owners respect your privacy and leave you alone.

Owner's Response: We are always happy to hear about your stay at Caballete Retreat. And glad you could have an enjoyable time with your family. Sitting around the fire pit is something our family enjoys too, and it gives you time to relax, reflect, and visit together. Thanks for your comments.

We stayed at Caballete Retreat while visiting family. It was very clean and inviting. We have never returned to our regular life feeling so rested and relaxed. In the mornings we sat on the deck watching the birds feed and the baby squirrels playing beneath. One morning a buck deer visited. It was soooooooo peaceful. The home is very unique, the multi levels, the old and new in perfect harmony. You will not be disappointed. From the comfy beds, to the 3 decks, the library, and the fire pit. We enjoyed it all, and so did our family members who came out to visit us on our last day there. When you stay here, be sure to go into Black River Falls to the Mocha Mouse for a meal. Home cooking and Wisconsin wines. mmmm!!! The place is wonderful. I would definitely recommend Caballete Retreat. I know that we will be back.

Owner's Response: It is so good to return home from a trip and feel relaxed and refreshed. We are always happy to hear that. And the wild life and birds are so enjoyable to see. Caballete Retreat makes it easy for families to come together from different locations, each sharing some of the driving. We will be happy to have you back.

Beautiful, perfect

We had a fabulous time at the house. It was a group of ladies and we loved it and the weather was perfect. I think the biggest hit was the hammock!! That thing always had someone in it! The flowers were beautiful and we enjoyed watching flying squirrels, hummingbirds, woodpeckers, and rose breasted grosbeaks!! We saw three deer as we pulled in the first night.
The scenery was gorgeous, with plenty of space to roam alone or with a friend. The house was big enough it didn't feel crowded at all. We even all hung out in the kitchen one night, all 8 of us!! I loved the fire pit. Everything was easy to find if it was needed.
Highly recommend it if you are in the area. Very fairly priced and close enough to town that if you forgot something, it isn't a long drive. The seclusion of it is great.
Owner's Response: We are always so happy to hear that our guests had such a good time at Caballete Retreat. With our busy lives, it so good to be able to slow down and enjoy the "hammock time", and the wild life in the rural setting. It is a great change of pace and allows you to recharge your soul and relax. Thank you for sharing your experience with us.
