About this apartment rental
One bit of change advised me by Vrbo:
Vrbo now collects from you the Wisconsin State and Sauk County and Town of Merrimac tax of 12.5%.
The taxes are on the room rate only...per night.
___________________________________________________________________
Unit 4 is perched amongst a canopy of oak and birch trees - coffee on the balcony in the company of leaves and branches over 2-stories from the ground! Unit 4 is one of eight condominiums in a building nestled amongst a mature birch/oak forest with glimpses over the Lake Wisconsin valley. Casual, whimsical, bright furnishing. Italian ceramic floor in bath. New step-in rainfall shower. Woodburning stove insert in the original, beautiful, stone fireplace. Small firepit outside for quiet summer/fall eves; or hearty-folks roasting s'mores in winter.
Lovely, oiled-teakwood laminate floors LR and Hall - new faux-wood laminate in kitchen and bedrooms. You may find yourself resting on a pillowcase embroidered by my Cornish grandmother; or snuggled under a quilt made of squares of men's suit material; or find pencil drawings sent from the trenches of WWI from grandpa Pengelly (Tom) to grandma Pengelly (Olivia) in Cornwall.
Poke about...little surprises all over.
AND...and whole bass fiddle case of books presiding over the living room!
Wildlife sightings - deer, turkey, raccoon, owl, and birds of all sorts fly over or walk through these remarkable surrounds. Marvelous earthrise and earthsets. I think the trees up here talk.
Parfrey's Glen official entrance is a 20-minute walk away. Devil's Lake is a 10-minute ride. Devil's Head Ski/Golf Resort is 200 yards down Bluff Road. Quaint Merrimac FREE ferry (seasonal). Cascade Mountain Ski/Snowboarding or Wollersheim Winery/Sauk City - 20-minute ride. Attraction notebook available in unit.
There are several new distilleries under construction in Baraboo...and Vintage Brewery is up and going in nearby Sauk City/Prairie du Sac area.
Plenty of QUIET. Noise restriction after 11p. You could write your book here! Remarkable views. Friendly condo neighbors.

I loved staying at Rocky Glen. The condo had everything you need, including a well stocked kitchen. It was like staying in a treehouse. Lesleigh was a wonderful host and I enjoyed all the family history in the condo.

Great location, awesome spot, loved it.

Lovely condo so close to some of WI's most beautiful state parks and trails! The condo was fully stocked and beautifully decorated. This place was the perfect home away from home! Lesleigh was a wonderful host! We would definitely stay again!
5.0
We stayed here for easy access to Devils Lake and the Dells. It worked great for what we needed and we enjoyed the peace and quiet it provided for the brief times we were there. We had our 4 children with us. I was concerned about our 3 and 4 year old not messing with all the decor. It was a bit of a challenge, but Lesleigh seemed very laid back and my older children enjoyed exploring all the interesting books and art.

A friend and I wanted to have a relaxing weekend trip to the Devil's Lake area. This was the perfect landing spot. Lesleigh is the perfect, helpful host with a very comfortable condo. The setting is beautiful and peaceful (except for the exceptional thunderstorm). It was everything that we were looking for. Would definitely stay here again and highly recommend.

Fishing and hiking around Devils lake area with family. Lesleigh was a terrific hostess and greeted us upon arrival. Also was very responsive during our stay. The condo is well kept and well furnished. Beautiful area with a lush forest surrounding and close to so many natural attractions. Would stay here again without hesitation.
5.0
Lesleigh's place was centrally located for all the activities we planned to do. I had read several reviews before booking and we are so happy we chose this condo tucked in the woods and scenic bluffs of Devils Lake. We went hiking in the state park, fishing in Lake Wisconsin, Lake Delton and along the Wisconsin river in the Dells. Lesleigh was an attentive host who provided many suggestions for area marina's/ restaurants (we loved them all). We even toured the Circus Museum. Her home is beautifully decorated and clean with ample space and a lovely wrap around deck to enjoy our morning coffee or evening wine. All in all it was a fabulous stay and we will definitely be back again (hopefully to ski this winter)!
5.0
The condo was just as charming as the photos indicated, and there was no noise from the other units. The host went way above-and-beyond in accommodating us, even to the point of shipping to us clothing that we had left behind. Best short-term rental experience we've had.
5.0
Overall we had an amazing trip. The host was super friendly and the place was fantastic. She had thought of everything needed to make it a comfortable stay. I will definitely stay here again.

We so enjoyed our stay! Lesleigh kindly met us at the door and showed us around. The place is set among trees on a hill. Perfect for relaxing out on the deck or looking out the windows at the nature all around! We plan to come again!

Amazing condo in the woods! Lesleigh was a great host and very responsive. The apartment was well decorated, super clean, and had everything we needed. I liked having a fire after a hike on a cold winter day. The closeness to Parfrey’s Glen and Devil’s Lake was a huge plus.

We had a great time. Loved the property. So close to ski resort (purpose of our trip) . Also close to great hiking. Very cozy with family after day on the slopes!
5.0
This place was great! Very nice, comfortable and cozy. The host was very responsive and helpful. There are a lot of things to do in the area, so plenty to keep you busy (hiking, skiing, breweries, etc.).
5.0
From meeting Lesleigh (the owner) for an initial tour, to exploring all of the decorative touches, to enjoying a wide assortment of music, to being surrounded by books, to enjoying the rainfall shower, to warming up by the cozy fireplace, to being immersed in the trees - this was by far one of my most favorite places to stay. Ever. And it was impeccably clean. We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful home to rent while we hiked in Devils Lake State Park, just a 10 minute drive away.
All of that being said, I would not recommend this place for young children as there are just too many delicate things to be broken. It should also be noted that this is a walk-up, second story dwelling.
5.0
Lesleigh’s place is the perfect spot to gather with friends in a lovely setting. It’s close to everything - Parfrey Glen, Devil's Lake State Park, and Baraboo. The condo is fully appointed with everything you could need. It's on the second floor with windows that frame two sides of the living room and a view of beautiful trees (particularly lovely in October). Lesleigh is great with communications and responds quickly to any needs that arise.
5.0
We came up to see colors of leaves and the place did not dissappoint. You don't have to go anywhere, there are colors all over the area and the place feels like it is in the trees! Love this place.
5.0
Lesleigh’s condo in the woods makes a cozy getaway and a good jumping off place for exploring Devil’s Lake, Baraboo (15 minutes) and the WI Dells (20-25 minutes). We found it a comfortable place to stay with our family, and appreciated the comfy beds, couches, and stocked kitchen. Lesleigh was an accommodating host and was quick to answer any questions we had. We also enjoyed the cozy, artsy decor and proximity to the woods.
Tip: Palfrey’s Glen is less busy weekdays.
One note: Louder noise will carry to the condo below. The residents below live there part-time, but it’s something to take note of.
Still, don’t let that dissuade you from renting if you’re traveling with kids. This place is a good value and family friendly!

Lesleigh was the best host, she came over to greet us when we arrived. Showed us where everything was, and was super sweet. The condo itself was perfect, the couch was super comfy, loved the smart TV for Netflix after a long hike. The location was great, close to mirror lake and devils lake, we’d love to make Rocky Glenn an annual trip!

We really loved staying here. Lesleigh, the hostess, showed us everything when we arrived, so it was really a hassle-free stay. Very comfortable, very clean. We highly recommend.

Lesleigh was the best host in all of the years using this site. She lives in the complex and was very quick to respond to any and all questions. She was helpful in choosing places to go. We forgot out flea and tick spray for our clothes and equipment. She brought over stuff for us to us. Beautiful area wonderful hiking

We attended a wedding nearby. The condo was perfect and the host was amazing.

The pictures do not do this little gem justice! Lesleigh was kind enough to meet & greet us upon arrival and walking in gave an overwhelming feeling of pure comfort! It was super clean and has a kitchen with all the necessities needed to cook a great meal, store items you need to keep for the week, and even baggies to store things you need to keep dry on your trip to devils lake! The balcony out back was perfect for morning coffee - watching the fog lift from blanketing the trees in the morning was one of my favorites! The kitchen table was perfect to enjoy dinner with family and friends and then share laughter after playing games into the night. The bathroom is a sanctuary of peace with a great walkin shower with your choice of rain fall or regular shower head. A firepit to relax at night with firewood on hand. Our pup loved all the woods around to explore. The only thing i would suggest is bring a map in case you dont get cell service. Lesleigh was amazing & we would for sure stay again & reco to anyone!!

Lesleigh was an awesome host!! Her home is so calming, such a relaxing place to call home for a few days. We did everything available to us from Devil's Lake hike and kayaking to Dr. Evermor's and wonderful food. Great place to onnect with nature and your loved ones.

An 8 unit condo in the middle of the woods. Unit is up two flights of stairs but beautiful and feels like you're in a treehouse. Plenty of outdoors to explore nearby and the Dells is 30 minutes north.

What a charming rental! My two sisters and I spent the weekend together to celebrate a significant birthday. Lesleigh was a wonderful hostess! Her home had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable - a well stocked kitchen, cozy seating and throws, and delightful decor. The setting is off the beaten path - peaceful and quiet - so nice to wake to just the sound of birdsong. Lesleigh gave us a great recommendation for dining nearby. We couldn’t have enjoyed it more!
5.0
My husband and I stayed here for a short weekend and it was the perfect retreat for us. Lesleigh was so kind and accommodating.
The location was peaceful and secluded but still a close drive to many local attractions. Her home was so warm and inviting. We enjoyed exploring the home and all of the lovely touches that filled the space. I could have spent the whole weekend reading the plethora of books and listening to music on the CD player.
There are many great activities close by. We spent time in the town of Baraboo as well as hiking at Devil's Lake. If you are looking for something extremely unique to do, check out Dr. Evermore's Structure park.
We would highly recommend this location for a peaceful, enjoyable get away. We plan on returning again soon with our children.

We were in the area to experience all things Baraboo and hike all the trails at Devils Lake for 3 days. This is a great place to stay in that everything is within 10 miles. Quite , peaceful and fully appointed with comfortable beds and furniture. Outstanding host always available to answer questions about the surrounding area.

This place is really nice, located in a great place, and feels comfortable and cozy. The host is amazing. I would recommend this place and come again.
