Enjoy a night by the fire with the fire wood provided. Grill out on the gas grill or over the fire pit. Walk or bike in the trail through the woods. In the winter, the pond is great for ice skating or go sledding on the big hill. During the summer months watch the cattle as they will come right up to the fence and drink out of the pond. -2 minute to Ice AgeTrail segment - 5 minutes to Indian Lake County Park -25 minutes to Madison -20 minutes to Lake Wisconsin -30 minutes to Spring Green -45 minutes to the Wisconsin Dells

Heifer Pasture Feed Shed

Great stay with beautiful scenery. Despite our late arrival at dark, we were well welcomed to the shed by Kurt. We were advised about the 4x4 suggestion to get to it but because of the post winter rain we opted to ride along in their ATVs. The shed was in great shape and well insulated, the wood stove did a great job even for those 30 degree nights. All amenities and many supplies were offered. Plenty of open land to hike and watch great scenery. Overall great hosts and response time for a great stay, definitely recommended.

This was my 2nd time coming here and I would definitely love to come again. Kurt's feed shed is the perfect location for a weekend getaway in the heart of Wisconsin with great proximity to hiking trails.

Family gathering at the Feed Shed

Great time with family meeting up at the Feed Shed. Kurt and family were very accommodating. We were grateful for 4x4 to get to the shed. We used the provided Weber gas grill for most meals. The fire pit and provided tripod would be very useful to cook as well. The area had seen a lot of rain recently so we did purchase some dry wood to supplement what was on the property. Beds were suitable for 5 of us. Couch for 6th. Small generator powered everything we needed, including a ceiling fan, lights, etc. - and there is a TV in the cabin with over-the-air channels. Useful for weather updates and maybe a TV movie for the kids. Beautiful and secluded - and combined with the clean outhouse, was a step up from tents/hammocks and squating in the woods for the less adventurous. Indian Lake and Dog Park nearby were an awesome surprise. A short drive. Our pups loved both the park and the lake.

Kurt was very nice and met with us upon arrival to show us up to the shed. We had a great time. It was very secluded and had everything you need. Definitely would stay again.

Extremely secluded , with the exception of the local wildlife, this stay is relaxing , one-of-a-kind , and truly serene . We were greeted at the main entrance with a warm smile and friendly demeanor . The feed shed was clean, stayed cool when it was hot , and they have out games to play during the day . We had a blast with the dogs , grilling and taking some much needed time away from the city
