The host was very attentive. The place was immaculate and we enjoyed being right by the beach area. The condo is close to many restaurants and the host sent us his favorites and we enjoyed them. The only thing was that we didn't anticipate the stairs down to the first floor and we brought too much luggage as usual. He did say that there is an elevator in an adjacent building but we never did find it. It was ok and we enjoyed our stay. Very nice area.

Nice Dells Getaway

First time visiting the Dells and I don’t think we would want to look at any other location to stay. It was perfect. Location is amazing and the lake is very pretty and relaxing.
