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

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

Great spot! Kurt and his family were very helpful. Buying eggs and ground beef from them was a nice addition. If you go during spring, bring you rain boots!

My wife and I stayed the weekend at our new favorite spot. Kurt and Ed were super helpful and nice hosts that made sure we had everything we needed for a comfy stay. We played yard games, had a nice fire with the wood provided, and even purchased the most tasty beef and eggs we’ve ever tried. 10/10 will be returning in the future for another stay!

This is a beautiful spot, and Kurt and his family were so helpful. The dwelling is adorable and the surrounding hillsides and forest area were perfect for my kids to explore! We had everything we needed for a cozy stay despite some rainy, cold weather. We will definitely be back to check this area out again when the cows are on pasture!
