Photos and Description of the Lake Koshkonong vacation cottage rental 3BR/1BA

This very cozy, quaint, super clean 1670 square feet cottage is located directly on the Rock River in a very peaceful setting. With three piers for fishing and the river right outside the back door. Three bedrooms, large Living Room with gas fireplace, Air Conditioning, Washer/Dryer, cable TV, radios, large kitchen (dishwasher), large screened porch/deck, and great for just kicking back and relaxing. Within walking distance to bait shop, taverns, restaurant. Free Use of wireless Internet, paddle boat, canoe, or jon boat. Boats to share with listing 309899. Fire pit on site. This very tastefully decorated cottage, known as 'The Trading Post', was built in 1896 along the River for selling/trading goods. Fishing in April and May is great for the walleye run, which is just across the bridge, below the dam, for those without a boat. With boats, ten minutes up the River is great for walleye fishing also. Also great fishing from the piers on site. Smoking allowed on porch/deck. Pet friendly.

Wonderful cozy cottage with great fishing!

DivingChicago Chicago, IL
Review Submitted: November 14, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2009
Stayed here October of 2009 and had a wonderful time! We fished from the dock everyday and our dog had a great time swimming in the river. It was nice to have a full kitchen, washer and dryer. The bait shop is within walking distance along with a couple of eateries. We also went to some state parks hiking and enjoyed the fall colors. George was very informative and suggested a few attractions in the area plus there are pamphlets at the cottage. The views from the porch and bedroom were beautiful. We will definitely be back; its so close to Chicago.

Wonderful and relaxing stay

CATChicago Palatine, Illinois
Review Submitted: August 21, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
We rented this cabin during August 2009 for a family vacation and couldn't have had a better experience. The property is charming and well appointed. Our 10 year old son loved fishing off the docks and the bridge most days. We also took a day trip up to Wisconsin Dells which our 10 and 17 year old sons greatly enjoyed. The only downside to our vacation was how quickly the week flew by for our family. We'll definitely think about returning next summer.

Delightful!!!

*gail from s.Milw South Milwaukee, Wisconsin
Review Submitted: October 21, 2008 Date of Stay: October 2008
My husband and I and some friends rented this property for a weekend in October 2008. The house is lovely and charming and very clean. The historic house sits on a breathtaking river. There also is a dam on the river and it is only a few feet away. Our fellows were tickled to have so many options to chose from to fish. The girls and I enjoyed the view of the fall foliage and all the different birds from the screened in porch. It was a perfect place to read, drink and play cards. With 3 nice sized bedrooms there was also plenty of room for us. I thought having the full kitchen with everything you might need at your fingertips was wonderful. If you can't live with out technology it has internet access (bring your laptop) and the tv next to the gas fireplace has tons of cable channels to watch "the game." Just pack your clothes, fishing pole and stop at the grocery store. Relaxation awaits at this great spot!!!
There is also a little night life if you want with a couple of local taverns in short walking distance.

Value Getaway

The Big Chief Wisconsin
Review Submitted: May 22, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2007
We have stayed in this clean, well kept river home/cottage 2-3 different times & have enjoyed our stays immensely. Our toddler enjoyed splashing around in the river & fishing off the docks or at Indianford dam just across the street. Bait shop/groceries/restaurant/bar just across the river & you can walk there over the bridge. Lots of beautiful lakes (be sure to checkout beach & fishing at Lake Ripley) & streams nearby(great fishing at Dunkirk Dam) & great golf too in Edgerton, Janesville & Rockford, IL. Waterski show in Janesville on Wed & Sun is free & kids will love it(pretty good playground there too). There's a flower garden there too. George & Chris (the homeowners) are friendly & hospitable & make sure that your family & group have a great vacation. For a river experience, you get a pretty good value here. If your family is big or you just need some extra room they also rent a beautiful little cottage next door. If you're just one or two couples you may like the romatic value of it better. We like the area so much we found a similar property, bought it & moved to Wisconsin!!!
