It's no more than a mile from the 4th largest lake in Wisconsin, castle rock lake, and they have a nice bait shop that's open 7 days a week from 7a-7p. There are a few golf courses near by, snowmobile/ATV trails right across the street and even airsoft/paintballing 1/2 mile away! There are a lot of activities around the site as well volleyball, playset, horseshoes, custom made basketball hot shot and our favorite, sitting around a nice bonfire and seeing all the stars. I can't wait to come back!

Stayed a couple nights here over the summer in a condo for a little weekend golf…read more The good: Nice clubhouse bar, decent beer selection, folks working the clubouse were helpful and polite. Was able to get drinks and refills with not too much of a wait. Buffalo Wings were solid. The clubouse had a very good patio, was cool to relax out there after our round with a bourbon. Condo was nice and clean, few amenities, balconies that back up to the fairways. The replica holes were a fun challenge. There was a very nice lady who cleaned our clubs while my group finished the 18th hole. The not so good: For what you're paying for on this course, I expect a little more. Half of the ball washers were empty, none at all had towels. Water coolers on the course were entirely empty on a hot day. Greens were not very well kept, all kinds of chunks taken out of them. Beverage cart was few and far between. One of the guys who worked there had some pace-of-play comments to make to us, even though we were keeping up with and pushing the group in front of us. Overall, had a good time but at those rates, hope you make it a little more worth our while.

This course (and greenskeeper) needs a wake-up call (as well as recent reviews). Fairways were as…read morehard as the parking lot and have been the past 3 years now. Was thinking they can't stay this bad. Never again. The green fee is quite high compared to other local, much, much better conditioned courses. Stay away until they blow up the fairways and redo them. And 7 holes is not a replica course, it is more of a gimmick.

Walking in the skyway is hard nice with the arrows but walking outside especially with the periodic carts is much easier. There are plenty of indoor and outdoor parks, and each have their own unique slides - I preferred the slides with the companion tubes. These ones were just strict about water shoes and sunglasses being worn. There are plenty of bathrooms and showers, but towels are a luxury. I had so much fun in the water but also enjoyed all the extra attractions like the arcade, outdoor go-kart, and shops.

Another woman yelled at us in one of the candy cabins for being by the toppings, while we were getting froyo..? Disclaimer, I've never been here, so I had no idea where the water slides were, and I did not have a map. So i obviously asked the WATERPARK staff where the slides were, they looked at me like I was crazy and said "in the water parks.?" I felt embarrassed so I thanked them and left. Eventually found the slides but still, quite rude and unfair. Waterslides were very fun though! Loved going down them, especially the hurricane/funnel one. Not a lot of seating though, and very bad security or service. We had towels stolen and I even caught a family trying to steal me and my friends towels and phones while we were swimming, thankfully my stomach hurt so I caught them and nothing major was taken. Annoying and scary honestly.

Plenty of room for a large group to spread out but the house also provides real coziness that makes it feel like a (very cool) home away from home. Our group loved shooting pool, feeding the jukebox, playing pinball, and taking turns at the one-armed bandit all while enjoying a roaring fire near the full-sized, classic wooden bar. the hot tub was truly awesome and large enough for us all to enjoy and we also loved taking advantage of the huge dining room to play games or the super comfy den area to hang out and watch movies. We loved the layout of the upstairs bedrooms giving everyone privacy but also being near each with a vintage hotel vibe. I couldn't get over the wrap-around balcony shared by all the bedrooms...loved it... so many details big and small that truly make this place an original. Seeing as it was early January we couldn't truly appreciate the huge yard with its many statues and sculptures (and a vintage phone booth that works) as well as the close proximity to the water, but I hope we can stay again when it's warm to take it all in during the peak season. The host and his assistant are super attentive and very responsive. It's clear they put a lot of time and planning into trying to give everyone the best experience possible. My only regret is that we didn't bring more people with us to share this treasure! I highly recommend.

There were lots of people ordering food at the bar, which looked awesome, especially the pizza. We walked through the water park area just to see it, but we didn't swim. It wasn't super busy, but they definitely packed alot of attractions in a small area. We had arcade credits and spent a few hours on the arcade which was really fun! The property is huge and beautiful. I would return!

In following up with management, they first denied that happened, then stated they were turned away because "everyone in the party didn't have ID". Never in 49 years of renting a hotel room have I ever been asked for everyone in my party to show ID, nor is it in their policy to require it. This forced the party to have to book another facility in person after driving around for an hour, and at a much higher rate. They refunded the stay but are now refusing to respond to emails. Steer clear of this desert and their poor management, much better experiences to be had in the Dells. The group had a wonderful experience at the Kalahari.

Lazer maze has been out of order intermittently. Our kids are right at the height threshold for the slides and depending on the lifeguard, we're or we're not allowed to go down the slides. The inconsistency is maddening. Mini golf course is all jacked up. Our kids had fun, and we'd consider coming again, but it'll be at the bottom of the list.
