I'm located between Wisconsin Dells and Lyndon Station on a cozy little 3-acre corner lot at the intersection of Highway 12 and Oak Glen Circle.
The property is mostly wooded with beautiful white oak trees that I've done my best to preserve.
Each year, I welcome nesting bluebirds, robins, and ruby-throated hummingbirds. You'll also find several bird feeders that attract a wide variety of songbirds, along with squirrels, rabbits, and woodchucks that call the property home.
Please note: I do have neighboring homes nearby, but it's a very quiet neighborhood of homeowners with no noisy renters. Please also note that as the host, I do live on property. I offer you your privacy but on occasion you may see me outside doing random chores on property. Please also note I have 2 dogs. They are very friendly animals and it's very possible at some point during your stay they may introduce themselves to you. Thankyou for understanding.

My partner and I loved tent camping at Cedar Hills! Directions were clear and thorough. There weren’t many tent campers. We got a beautiful site with a view of the valley and no direct neighbors. Dennis was super responsive and accommodating. He checked in with us and even offered us some extra ice. We appreciated the freedom of a clothing-optional campground and just the peace and quiet and good vibes overall. About a 20 minute drive from the Wisconsin river and 30 minutes from the House on the Rock. One of both of our favorite camping experiences we’ve had. We plan to return!
