About this cottage rental

Experience Madison & UW-Madison by staying in this ‘Coastal Living’ inspired lake front cottage. Downtown Madison and campus events are 15 minutes away, by car, Uber, or taxi. Fully licensed! Relax on the wood deck that overlooks the lake, enjoy the large lawn, and go swimming, boating, fishing, or kayaking from the pier. Hiking and bike trails are practically right outside the back door. The new Lower Yahara River Trail is less than two blocks away; it connects McFarland to Madison and includes the longest boardwalk bridge constructed solely for non-motorized transportation in North America! This beautiful, newly redesigned and rebuilt cottage on Lake Waubesa, in McFarland, Wisconsin is a 15 minute drive or Uber ride from downtown Madison, a 5 minute walk to restaurants, bars and shops in McFarland, and minutes away from the outdoor concerts, farmers markets, and other amazing activities Madison and the surrounding areas have to offer. The living room, dining room, kitchen, first floor bedroom and the upstairs master bedroom have lake views and unparalleled sunsets. Two first floor bedrooms, two contemporary bathrooms, a living room with TV, dining room with a large table for easy entertaining, and an entry mud room. The upstairs master bedroom has vintage wood beams and the best sunset views on Lake Waubesa. The charming, fully-equipped gourmet kitchen has white cupboards, granite counter tops, and is outfitted with stainless steel appliances that include a dishwasher. All rooms are very spacious. Huge windows offer breathtaking views of the lake from almost every room. The illuminated Wisconsin State Capitol can be seen at night — along with other lights that twinkle around the lake. This quintessential lake home — recently renovated by a renowned local interior designer —honors the aesthetics of lake living with vintage furnishings, nautical accessories, comfy furniture, and soft grey colors.

The cottage is clean and well stocked for a long weekend. The view of the lake is beautiful, and I'm sure it's even better in the warm months. We had everything we needed. Great little house for a long weekend.

Our stay was beautiful, as the home was picture-perfect (The pictures are accurate) The home was immaculate and had everything we needed. My son relocated for a position, so the memories we shared in this home are priceless.

Look no further. This place is perfect. We stayed two nights with two other couples. The place is more beautiful in person. Super clean and perfectly situated on the lake. The town has a few bars that are within walking distance from the cottage. We will definitely return.

Nice kitchen with good selection of pots/pans/utensils if you want to cook. Nice decor. Upstairs master suite was wonderful. Downstairs bedrooms a bit small. Thin walls/floor.
