Photos and Description of the Castle Rock Lake vacation house rental
House, 5 Bedrooms, 2 Baths (Sleeps 9)

This House is on the site where one of the first houses in the area was built circa 1940's. It was an old stucco house with no indoor plumbing and a wood stove. My Grandmother bought it along with the 40 acres that surrounded it in the 1960's from an elderly woman that was fond of cigars. A new house was built next to it in 1974. The old stucco house was eventually tore down in1998 and buried on the site.

The Newer Home now on 3 1/2 acres, has 2 living rooms. Upstairs living room has 2 large picture windows that have a scenic overlook of 2 ponds. Deer and turkey are present quite frequently in the mornings and evenings. There are small fish to catch and release along with plenty of frogs and turtles. There is a paver/patio area with Chiminea and Tiki's to relax and barbecue. The pavers were saved from when the old brick (paved) courthouse street in Mauston was tore up and black topped. There is also a path that takes you to a private campsite nestled in the woods (firewood included).

Close to Everything: There is a trail that leads to a private campfire site that has huge Oak logs honed into fireside benches.

The house is short walk to Castle Rock lake (.43 mi), which has multiple taverns, eateries and boat landings. It is about 9 miles from Mauston 9 miles from New Lisbon and 11 miles to Necedah. It is roughly 30 miles from the Wisconsin Dells. I began this rental with the idea to have the LOWEST RATES with the most to offer so more families could afford to have a getaway vacation. If you would like to stay at our home, please email or call and I will make the arrangement's!

Plenty of Room and Privacy: This home sits on 3 1/2 acres with trees, paths, and lounging areas. If your looking for a true 'getaway' without having to be right next to other homes and campers but still be right where all the Lake activities are then you won't find better than this! Snowmobile trails are accessible right from the property and a golf course is a few miles, so whether your here for summer fun or winter SNOWMOBILING and ICE FISHING, there is no place better around Castle Rock Lake. THIS HOME CAN ALSO BE SEEN AT THE - VRBO WEBSITE (#231934)

This was our second year here for New Years and loved it just as much as last year. The house is cozy and warm and isolated enough to have the nature feel without the "lost in the middle of nowhere" feel. :) it's close to K-mart and grocery stores in case you forgot to bring something. We didn't realy get much out of the house. Spent a lot of time playing games and watching movies and having a great time with friends. Definitely thinking about coming back next year for New Years and probably going to try to come back in the summer too. Cyle (the owner) is just so easy to deal with, everything got taken care of pretty fast so I loved this place.
Owner's Response: Thanks Anca...you have to come back next year....now you have made it a tradition! :)

Outstanding Holiday

First off I want to say this was everything I was looking for. I went to have Thanksgiving with my family 11 of us total. There was plenty of room and the place was a home away from home. The fire pit was amazing and the property was just secluded enough. Cyle and Vicki were amazing to work with and very accommodating. I have stayed at many of these rentals and this couple were by far the easiest to reach and the best to work with. I really cannot say enough good things about these owners other than I will be staying again in the future. Thank you for an outstanding experience.

This is the fourth stay we have spent at this cabin. Always clean and ready for our arrival. The owners are flexible with arrival and departure times making things much more convenient for coordinating with everyones schedule.

Can't wait to come back! Thanks for the beer:-)

The rental has been used for my annual girls weekend for several years and we ALWAYS love our time there. So much so, that when I was assigned the task of finding a location for our office "Team Building" day - I knew exactly where I wanted to take the crew! Everyone loved the house and of course the amazing fire pit! As always, Cyle and Vicky provide a great retreat location at an affordable price! Thanks GUYS!!!!

We did spend the Labor Day weekend at the house , 3 nights . We were a group of 6 adults and 2 children .
House is clean and has everything what you could need . Kitchen is provided very good , there is coffee , sugar etc. even salt and pepper :) Bedrooms are big and clean , bedclothes and towels are fresh .
If weather is bad there is a lot of fun things to do at the house . They have fitness room , lots of books , board games for families and satellite tv ..
The campfire site is couple of yards away from the house . WE LOVED IT ! Lots of seating around and lots of wood to use it :) We even did our delicious potatoes in there .
House is very close to two marinas with the beach and a playground , and restaurant .
We had a great time , it was very relaxing and very quiet .
We would love to come again :)

An ok stay.

2 of 5
Submitted: July 26, 2012 Stayed: July 2012
This is an "ok" rental property. It is spacious, and is in moderate to good condition. Its location is ok not secluded, also not on a busy road. It is .7 miles from Castle Rock Lake, where there is a private camp ground and boat launch and a Bar and Grill, no public swimming location there. The closest swimming location we found is at "Buckhorn State Park" about 6 miles away for Five dollars per hour. The listing description was accurate except for the "Boat Repair Business" located approximately 75ft from the house and does share the front driveway. The grounds were ok, the area of the patio and grills could use a little work. The "Resident Duck", is frendly but can be annoying at times. When ever we needed to contact the owners, their response was fairly quick and courteous. The area attractions and restaurants are good which we did appreciate.

Owner's Response: Like everything in life how someone views things are relative to the person. Some may like the movie -Dances with Wolfs- and some may not. The distance to the lake like I said in the website is -walking distance- about 1/2 mile. I didnt get out a Department of Transportation measuring device to measure, I just jumped on my Harley and went down the road, I didnt really take it all that serious, in a nut shell it is -walking distance-. As for the swimming, there is a swimming beach right down the road -walking distance-. I swam there for most of my life. It is shared by the people who own the condominiums so maybe Karl did not realize that it is also for public use. There is another public use Beach about a mile -walking or bike distance- down at the Dirty Turtle, my daughter still swims there all the time. If you decide to go to the Buckhorn State Park to swim which is a nice place to visit anyway, it is $5 a day for use of the whole park per car. Rockets Boat repair is ran by a really nice guy named Jeff. He works hard and is great for fishing information or anything you want to know about the lake or area. The house has two driveways one will bring you past his shop the other not. The shop is a fair distance from the house, much further than most cabin rentals are from each other. He closes @ 5 everyday. The home, shop, campfire site and trail is all located on 3 1/2 acres of land. If you cannot find seclusion somewhere, you are not looking very hard LOL! I have a nice comfortable 5 bedroom 2 bath -Home- at a reasonable rate. My wife and I are simple common people with full time jobs and family. I turned the home I was raised in, into a clean, affordable place for people that are like us to -getaway- with family. If are looking for pristine, perfection beach front with maid service and mints left on your pillows, there are places that fit that criteria. If you are looking for a quiet home away from home-, -very near- the lake, come and check it out.

Great place if you want to getaway, or for a family vacation. 6 Women on the loose, it was great. The house was wonderful, actually more than what we expected. Cyle/Vicki were awesome to work with. The fire pit was great, hope we were'nt to loud for the neighbors. Great memories. Tubing and gambling were close. I give it high ratings for anybody looking for a home away from home.

Thankyou so much for sharing your home with us.
Debbie Bunkoske and girls.
Owner's Response: Thanks Deb, glad you girls had a blast! Next time you will have to bring your ATV's, they just opened trails through out the whole area. We plan on doing some changes on the house before next year also. I don't know if you girls made it to the hidden cave, if not the wife and I will bring you personally next visit. See Ya'll then!

We had a GREAT time on our 4 day mini family reunion!! Cyle and Vikie communicate very well and are very accommodating!! The home is very clean, and enough room for our 7 adults, 4 children, and 3 dogs! It is so close to the lake, lots of trails for bike rides, and the fire pit is AWESOME. The Dirty Turtle and Shipwreck Bay are really close to the house and fun places right on the lake. We had a very relaxing, fun time, and will be back again!

Thank you for everything!!
