Natures retreat! Lakeside log cabin on 7 acres! Hike, Fish, Swim, Kayak, Spa!

Escape to the enchanting Blackberry Lodge (the TOP rated VRBO in beautiful Waushara County), a rustic PET FRIENDLY Amish-built log cabin nestled in the breathtaking beauty of central Wisconsin. This idyllic lakefront retreat offers a serene getaway surrounded by nature's wonders.

Step outside and take in the peaceful ambiance as you explore the all-natural sandy beach along the shimmering lakefront. Listen to the soothing sounds of a nearby stream as you relax and unwind in our cedar barrel steam sauna, a perfect way to rejuvenate your body and soul.

Blackberry Lodge is situated on seven acres of pristine nature, providing ample opportunities to explore and connect with the outdoors. Embark on adventures along the trails that wind through the property, immersing yourself in the natural splendor that surrounds you.

For water lovers, we offer kayaks, paddle boats, a canoe, and fishing! Make the most of the sparkling waters! Bask in the sun on our waterside docks, feeling the warm sand beneath your toes and enjoying the breathtaking lake views. Or swim from the pontoon raft, jumping into the crystal-clear waters of the lake.

As the day turns into evening, gather around the inviting all natural limestone fire pit and share stories, toast marshmallows, and create unforgettable memories under the starlit sky. Take advantage of the excellent stargazing opportunities that this remote location provides, immersing yourself in the wonder of the night sky.

Blackberry Lodge features expansive cedar decks, providing ample space to relax, unwind, and take in the panoramic views of the natural surroundings. And if you're a grill enthusiast, you'll appreciate the new Weber grill, perfect for preparing delicious meals while enjoying the outdoor ambiance.

While Blackberry Lodge offers a captivating escape surrounded by nature, should you ever decide to venture out (although you may never want to), you'll find yourself conveniently located just a few miles from the charming downtown of Wautoma. This quaint little town offers a delightful array of shops, restaurants, grocery stores, farmers markets, coffee shops, a lovely wine bar, and warm and welcoming locals, ensuring you have everything you need.

If you're in the mood for exploration, Wisconsin Dells is a mere 1.5 hours away, offering a thrilling destination with water parks, entertainment, and attractions for the whole family to enjoy.

For golf enthusiasts, two beautiful 18-hole public courses are less than 5 minutes away, providing ample opportunities to tee off amidst scenic surroundings.

Just one mile away, you'll find Big Silver Lake, a full waterski lake, with a public boat landing. It's the perfect spot for boating enthusiasts to indulge in water adventures and create lasting memories.

Despite the convenient proximity to these attractions, Blackberry Lodge retains its sense of being nestled in the middle of nowhere, allowing you to enjoy the tranquility and seclusion of nature without sacrificing access to nearby amenities and activities.

Blackberry Lodge offers the perfect harmonious blend of rustic charm, outdoor adventure, and tranquility. Whether you're seeking a peaceful lakefront retreat in nature or looking to explore the nearby attractions, our lodge provides an ideal base for your getaway.

We love the Wautoma area and this property was one of the best we have stayed at! The house is amazing, the land is beautiful, and the property manager was outstanding! We have already booked another stay here because we loved it so much. A defiant booking if you are in the area.

Family Get Together
This Wautoma cabin provided a fabulous venue for our get together with our son and daughter-in-law for a delayed 40th Birthday celebration for our son. We enjoyed fall walks on the property, biking country roads, a fun fire pit, and watching our son and daughter-in-law introduce their dog to the canoe. The owner was very responsive to all of our questions and I look forward to an opportunity for a repeat visit.

Just what we needed!
We absolutely loved our mini vacation! Got out of the craziness and right into tranquility! Beautiful log home with hiking trails and a great little beach. We even went canoeing which is something we haven’t done since high school church youth group trips. Yep, I’m still kinda sore😉. The weather was perfect and so was our stay at BlackBerry Lodge. Can’t wait to bring the family back in the summer! You guys rock!

This was our second time staying at BlackBerry Lodge, and it was just as amazing as the first stay. We enjoy fishing off the dock- very easy to catch bluegill. The cabin is meticulously clean, the host is always available and check-in is easy. We used the grill both times, and it is wonderful. I have nothing but positive things to say about this place.

Nice home tucked away in the woods.
This is a lovely tucked away in the trees type of home. Lot’s of wild life near the property and cute winding paths and trails. The road leading to the house is like having your own personal tunnel of trees which was nice every time we left and returned to the cabin. I will say this is a secluded house in terms of not seeing other homes nearby but as far as sound it's not all that secluded. There is a nearby house across the creek which you can't see but you can definitely hear if they are "noisy neighbors" which in our case our last couple of days they were. Our peaceful, serenity of mother nature, animal, and tree sounds got drowned out from loud blasting music, banging sounds like they were building something or playing very loud yard games. Thankfully it was just the last couple of days of our trip and not our whole trip. Sound really travels. Communication with Andrew was great he answered all questions, responded promptly and was very courteous. We enjoyed the water toys on the lake too, which was very nice. A few suggestions for the house it can use more storage. A table with some drawers along the wall the staircase is on and a small side table next to the sliding door could be helpful as well. Maybe some more shelves under the two existing one’s and books removed from their current location in kitchen to some shelves. The two beds should switch locations as upstairs is bigger more of a master suite. We enjoyed our trip very much and escaped our hectic city lives.

Great, hard to find property!
Our family of five (three kids and our dog) enjoyed a long weekend at Blackberry Lodge, and it was great. It’s rare to find a place that offers everything this lodge does – privacy, seclusion in the woods, a lake for fishing and swimming, pet-friendly accommodations, and a beautifully furnished cabin. We spent our days playing cornhole, kayaking, swimming, paddleboarding, and canoeing. The Weber grill and cozy porch area were big highlights for us. We briefly used the sauna, but think this would be a great highlight in the fall and winter. This property truly has everything you need to relax and disconnect!

Wonderful, relaxing family vacation with dogs
My family (children ages 19, 14 &11) & our two dogs, had a wonderful, relaxing vacation at Blackberry Lodge. Booking, check-in & check-out were simple. The host, Andrew, was very responsive & friendly. The location of the lodge is beautiful, surrounded by trees & nature. We saw deer, various birds, & squirrels right from the deck. The lodge itself was beautiful, cozy & clean & had everything we needed plus more. The lake is a short walk through the trees, on natural trails. The water of the lake is clear & you can walk out for quite a distance before it gets deep. The whole family was able to explore the lake with the available kayaks, canoe, paddle board & paddleboat. We fished (catch & release), spotted turtles, swam. We explored the stream. The kids enjoyed the hut with foosball & darts. The dogs were able to swim, run on the trails, lounge on the beach & the dock. It was rainy off & on during our stay but we still very much enjoyed just relaxing. We didn’t turn the TV on our entire stay (4 nights)! We visited a couple different towns close by (Wautoma & Red Granite) for coffee, dinner one night & ice cream. Everyone had a great time. We did not want to leave & we will be back! *Note for those clean freaks…You will get sand on/in things. As long as we dried the dogs off & wiped our feet good before going into the lodge, we didn’t have much sand inside. Also, sand on the beach & in the lake is more of a mixture of sand & mud…it’s a lake, not the ocean.

Beautiful cabin in the woods
Cabin was very clean and modern, while keeping the log cabin feel. Owners have thought of everything, with little touches all over the place (seating by creek on trails, buckets to carry wood, life jackets for the boats, etc.). Offering the wood for purchase (honor system) was also a great perk. We caught many fish at the lake, saw all kinds of interesting animals (giant turtle, woodpeckers, owl). Truly a wonderful place!

Perfect Wautoma Cabin.
Beautiful log cabin set on 7 acres of wooded property. Pet friendly, several trails with soft landscape lighting for night walks, wood sauna steps from cabin, beautiful wrap around deck, new large grill, plenty of wood in wood shed for fire pit along with a wagon to load and carry wood, several watercraft available with easy access, peaceful and quiet, only a 6 minute drive to Mt. Mount Morris Mill coffee shop for coffee. The stream can be heard from the cabin deck, cornhole just outside of the cabin, family and card games available, plenty of outdoor lighting available, several planters throughout property filled with flowers. Fun little extra cabin next to fire pit with foosball, a mini-bar, and its own screened in porch with chairs. Comfortable seating by corn hole, fire pit, and on deck, as well as benches along side the trails and stream. Plenty of towels and extra blankets if needed. Bonus to have a clear view from the lake of the Northern Lights! Andrew was the perfect host, providing every detail prior to check in, confirming we checked in ok, and prompt follow up to all communication. Highly recommend!

Remote cabin- perfect for kids & dogs!
My husband and I, plus my parent's, two kiddos, and two pups all spent a long weekend at Andrew's cabin. Everything about this place was exactly what we were looking for. As mentioned, it sits on seven acres with plenty of areas to explore. We spent a lot of mornings out on the paddle boats with the kids and pups. The water was obviously a little too cold for us humans, but that didn't stop the pups from taking a dip. The cabin itself is fully stocked with everything you could possibly need including free popcorn! The host also left us blackberry jam, blackberry chocolates, and blackberry flavored water. DELICIOUS! We loved enjoying the fire pit and the game room. Although the cabin feels very remote, the town of Wautoma and nearby smaller towns have plenty to do. Lots of wineries, breweries and eating establishments. We'd love to return to this place when the weather is nice and we can do more swimming. Crystal clear water and shallow enough for our kids to enjoy. Obviously, I would not hesitate to recommend this place to anyone looking for a weekend getaway- especially if you're looking to get away from the hustle and bustle.

Fine visit to Wautoma cabin
I'll echo what others have said. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Cabin is very nice and very well stocked. The surroundings are great and dogs as well as humans had fun exploring. And we definitely took advantage of having access to the lake, canoe, kayaks. Andrew was a fine host--on the ball with instructions and checking that we got in OK, etc. Definitely recommend.

Excellent Cabin getaway
Beautiful property and log cabin. Great location for a weekend away from home for our family of 5 with 3 elementary school aged kids and the dog as well. Cabin felt very tucked away and secluded in nature with no signs of any neighbors from the cabin, yet only a 10 minute drive to town with easy access to groceries or restaurants if desired. The wooded property had a beautiful autumnal appearance and we took advantage of the kayaks and paddleboats, but we'd love to come back in the summer to actually go for a swim in the shallow, clear lake. The place was definitely as described and as pictured. We had no issues throughout our stay, however, I can say that the host Andrew was great with communication quickly responding to texts as we prepared for the stay and welcoming us/checking in once we arrived. Overall the trip was just what we needed and we would definitely return!

Little Get Away
We were looking for a secludeded cabin by a lake that allowed dogs. This was it. A sweet cozy log cabin, a stream, a lake and lots of trails. Foosball and darts on rainy days, and a large covered porch with a comfy couch was perfect. Solidly built cabin, nicely decorated with quality furnishings. It was nice to have access to the kayaks, canoe and paddle boat too.
