Annie Bachmann, as the manager of the Stay Spa and Townhome will go out of her way to make sure everything is right for your stay. Her brother Fred and his wife Kiya own these properties and together work as a family team to provide their guests with the very best.

Having worked in residential and commercial construction most of his life, Fred Bachmann has a keen eye for property—which made him jump at the chance in 2006 to purchase the first of only seven townhomes being built along the lake.

“I’ve always felt Castle Rock Lake is an undiscovered treasure,” says Bachmann. “My wife Kiya and I live in Madison, a city surrounded by beautiful lakes, but we prefer to travel 75 miles north to Castle Rock Lake. It’s beautiful and serene here, the water is clean, there are endless snowmobile and ATV trails, and it’s an absolute paradise for boating.” Buckhorn State Park is also nestled along its shores, where bald eagles and ospreys circle lazily in the summer sky.

Fred’s Stay Spa Resort and Lakefront Townhome are one of largest and most upscale homes available for rent on the beachfront, with a breathtaking view of Wisconsin’s fourth-largest lake. Obviously built with the loving touch of a skilled contractor and craftsman, the 2,500-square foot residence is only 25 minutes from Wisconsin Dells and about one hour north of Madison.

Outdoor activities abound for all seasons, from swimming and boating and horseback riding to snowmobiling and cross-country skiing. The elegant and comfortable interior, however, makes it tempting to just stay inside. The floor plan is open and spacious, with soaring 10-foot ceilings, large living spaces, hardwood floors, and plush leather furniture. A sound system is located in every room. Make breakfast in an inviting kitchen overlooking the lake, complete with stone countertops, hickory cabinets, and modern appliances.

This idyllic setting is a short walk from a top-rated lakefront bar/restaurant, the VIP clubhouse, marina, and arcade. Take a day to explore the natural wonders of the Castle Rock Lake area, sample its wineries, or play a round of golf. Friendly shop owners entertaining nightlife await you nearby. You’ll be surprised how quickly it feels like home!
