About this property
Secluded Rustic-Modern Log Cabin w/ Hot Tub, Private Creekside Escape
Walnut Creek Cabin, formerly known as the Rustic Retreat, is a secluded log cabin on a private stream located in the heart of the Driftless Area. The cabin has recently been renovated to welcome guests into a modern + rustic luxury getaway. The rustic details of the original log cabin have been preserved and reimagined to include an attractive modern design.
During your stay, the serene landscapes of rolling hills, bubbling brooks and wildlife invite you to explore the 10 acres of land with nature walks or while sitting in the hot tub. There is also an outdoor fire pit, screened-in porch, and an indoor gas fireplace to make this your dream retreat. Experience nature and simple living without forgoing all the amenities.
The cabin is located close to the scenic Mississippi River where you can enjoy water sports, fish, and watch spectacular sunsets. Nearby is the Rush Creek State Nature Preserve and also the Villa Louis in historic Prairie Du Chien. During wintertime, enjoy cross county skiing and snowmobiling.
The Space: You will have access to the entire log cabin, which is located in Ferryville, WI. There is a private bedroom on the main level with a full bed and access to the washer/dryer in the closet. The upstairs loft has a queen bed, complete with a Saatva luxury mattress made with eco-responsible materials. There is also a daybed couch, that can convert into a queen-sized bed, and additional seating areas upstairs in the loft. The cabin is fully furnished and also offers Wi-Fi, cable TV and a land line (if you choose to use!) to ensure a comfortable and relaxing stay.

Loved our stay here, very peaceful and relaxing getaway! Cabin was in a great location. It was very clean and was supplied with everything we needed.Looking forward to staying here again.
Everything was perfect. Management was very responsive when the hot tub wouldn't go above 99 degrees (it had gone into sleep mode). Very clean, very secluded. Just what we needed to recharge.
Nice relaxing location in the a valley that feels like home. Very relaxing and well thought out stay. Really appreciated the hot tub and the thoughtfulness of the cabin layout and amenities.
This was as advertised — a beautiful, clean, and scenic cabin in proximity to hikes, cute towns, and the Mississippi River! We really enjoyed our stay and hope to return in the near future!
The cabin was clean and well stocked with everything needed. It offered private seclusion and peaceful nature combined with modern conveniences and luxuries making it a perfect getaway.
Really enjoyed our week at the cabin. Big plus that we could bring our dog. Very relaxing, enjoyed the hot tub and fire pit. The cabin had everything we needed to be comfortable. Beds were comfy. We definitely go back!
My wife and I came here for a little anniversary vacation. The area around the cabin and the property it's on were beautiful, with birds, birds, birds! The house itself was exactly what we hoped, comfortable with a variety of nice places to be inside and out in the large screened patio, and we had a wonderful few days.
Just stunning. The pictures do not do this location justice. Every design aspect of the cabin is so well done. And the property grounds are amazing. We absolutely loved it! The most relaxing vacation we have been on.
We stayed here over Christmas and had an absolutely amazing time. The cabin is in a beautiful setting with lots of land and privacy. The cabin itself is very cozy and has everything you need. From exploring the property to seeing hawks and deer from the hot tub to having a campfire to touring the Driftless area, we made memories that will last a lifetime. I would highly recommend staying here! Our dog loved the cabin too and didn't want to leave
Serenity at its finest, very beautiful home away from home. It was like being in a very fancy painting, nature and peaceful. Most beautiful place to go to get away from the city life, gain mind clarity. Perfect in every way it ever could be. We will be back again.
Very professional from start to finish. The cabin was definitely out “in the sticks”, so pack what you need for food. We enjoyed the isolation. There are some steep stairs - but they had baby gates and a main floor bathroom and bedroom. We enjoyed exploring and spending time in silence!
Stunningly beautiful cabin, inside and out. And very peaceful. We heard a total of three cars go by over the entire weekend. It allowed us to hear the birds, the geese, the bees, the frogs, and all of nature. The entire area feels like you're in the Appalachians. If you plan to stay here in summer, I'd suggest bringing a pop-up screen tent to set up in the lower yard to escape the bugs, plus a wagon to bring supplies down to save yourself a few trips. Thankfully we happened to bring both with us and it worked perfectly. If not, the screen porch on the cabin is amazing! We'd stay here again without question!
I recently stayed here with my sister from Texas. We were exploring the Mississippi River area. We both enjoyed the secluded cabin. Sitting by the firepit in the evening, we were treated to the sight of many deer walking through the adjacent fields. Many new memories were made.
The perfect place for rest and relaxation. The cabin was clean when we arrived. The native wildflower landscaping is beautiful. We enjoyed watching hummingbirds and pollinators. A great spot for bird watching. We did outings every day but looked forward to coming back to our home away from home each evening. Overall great experience, and we would stay there again.
We were so excited to find a place for a relaxing and quiet girls weekend that allowed dogs and was in a secluded spot and surrounded by nature. This cabin had all of the wonderful amenities, but had the rustic charm of being in the woods. The hot tub was the added bonus, the fire pit was perfect for smores, the flower beds allowed us to watch the humming birds and butterflies as we drank coffee and we had every meal on the screened in porch. Everything was absolutely perfect, comfortable and clean. The only problem is we wish we would have booked many more nights because we didn't want to leave. My dogs loves running around the property and exploring the creek. We will definitely be coming back!
Gorgeous private location without being very far off of highway. Cabin and property is well represented by the photographs on Vrbo (July 2024). The outdoor areas are even more attractive than pictured and the plantings kept it full of tons of different birds and wildlife. We were very happy with the rental. The property manager was very friendly and helpful when we spoke to clarify some details and even offered us access to fish a nearby trout stream which we unfortunately weren’t able to take advantage of. I definitely will be recommending this property to others. Only thing that I should mention is that the second run of staircase up to the loft bedroom is very steep like a ship ladder, but without ship ladder style railings. It’s very slippery if wearing socks. It could benefit from secure hand rails for the descent and maybe a topcoat of anti-slip sealant, but for us it was worth the space saved with this design. We were able to teach our 3-year-old to go down on his butt with no issues so it’s not rocket science, but I wouldn’t recommend it for people who may struggle with that sort of thing.
