The hosts have so much attention to detail that made our stay easy and pleasant. The WiFi password was posted in multiple places throughout the property, there was plenty of coffee and creamer, spare blankets in the living room to relax with, extra towels in the bathroom, wine opener and glasses and everything we could need in the kitchen. The WiFi was fast. The padlock to access the property was easy to use. The bed was comfortable. The home was super clean and beautifully decorated. We loved that home was updated with modern heating (which worked great) and a new kitchen and bathrooms, but retains some of its original vintage character. Checkout was easy, I’ve stayed at places that require a lot of cleaning/checkout instructions, but checkout at the Iron Ore Retreat was simple and convenient. We liked the location - you can walk to downtown Oconomowoc. Thanks for the wonderful stay, we hope we’ll be back! ##### Lauren R.

The host was also very responsive when we had a question about the internet connection and the TV. Finally, as happens in Wisconsin, it snowed. All walkways were cleared before we even needed them. Perfect weekend. ##### Barb L.

The house was amazing, beautiful, equipped with everything, and close to everything. The hosts were responsive and very kind. Thank you! ##### Steven A.

The home has been recently renovated, including all new appliances in the kitchen. The entire home was clean and well stocked with everything you might need. The fire pit, gas grill, and picnic table in the back yard were great for a Father's Day cookout with our family. Lastly, it's a short walk to all of the restaurants and bars in downtown Oconomowoc. We will be back when we visit Oconomowoc again. ##### Glenn R. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### John R. 16 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy This was the perfect place for our family group of six adults. The house is in great shape, the owners/managers were immediately responsive to a couple basic questions, and instructions were clear and easy. Air conditioning worked beautifully, we never ran out of hot water, and all appliances are new and in great shape. The kitchen is fantastic, rightly shown as the highlight, and was perfect for breakfasts. (We had lunch and dinner every day at a family home 10 minutes away). I grew up in the area as a kid, and Oconomowoc - while still very much small-town America - has grown nicely with a relatively large range of shops, restaurants, and coffee shops, and a sizeable grocery store is only a five minute drive away. The central part of town is a short walk from the house. The only real caution I offer would be if you have younger kids who need to be supervised: the backyard is fairly spacious, but there is an active train line just beyond it. Would we stay here again? Absolutely! ##### John R.
