If your cabin wish list starts with pet-friendly and on-the-water, The Great Outdoors Lake House in Friendship, WI checks both boxes fast. Two standout perks jump out the moment you arrive: a brand-new private pier (2024) for easy swim-and-dock days, and three cozy electric fireplaces inside for flip-of-a-switch ambiance after sunset. Add in a breezy sunroom that glows at golden hour, and you’ve got a year-round cabin that feels made for slow mornings, lake play, and movie nights.

This 2-bedroom, 1-bath lake house sleeps up to 7 Cabintimers with two queen beds, a sleeper sofa, and a handy daybed on the sun porch. Outdoors, the fun is set up for you: kayak, pedal boat, and canoe are included, plus lifejackets, yard games, and a fire pit for s’mores. In summer, hop right in the water from the private pier; in winter, the pier is stored and Friendship Lake turns into a quiet base for ice fishing days followed by warm-up time near the fireplaces. Inside, expect WiFi, Smart TVs, a video library, and board games—perfect for rainy-day entertainment.

Where you’ll be

You’re right on Friendship Lake in Adams County, a friendly base for hiking, paddling, fishing, and snowmobiling. Roche-A-Cri State Park is just up the road, where stairways climb a 300-foot rock mound with wide-open views and historic petroglyphs. Pack sturdy shoes and a water bottle—you’ll want time at the overlook. When you’re ready for a day trip, Wisconsin Dells is an easy drive for waterparks, duck tours, and classic supper clubs.

Cabin highlights Cabintimers love

• Pets considered so four-legged travelers can tag along.
• Three electric fireplaces inside + outdoor fire pit for year-round coziness.
• Free-to-use kayak, pedal boat, and canoe—no extra rental hassle.
• Brand-new pier (2024) and a swim-friendly shoreline for quick dips.
• Sunroom with a daybed—morning coffee spot, afternoon reading nook, or kid hangout.

• Decorated for the holidays from November through January—cute, festive touches for winter stays.
• Handicap access, central heat/AC, linens and towels provided to keep planning simple.

Summer & winter, both shine here

Summer is patio lounging, pier-jumping, and corn hole in the yard. Toss a line for panfish, bass, northern pike or walleye, then grill out on the patio and watch the sky change from the sunroom. Winter brings quiet mornings, ice fishing on the lake, board games at the table, and movie marathons with cocoa by the fireplaces. Fourth of July is a fan favorite—Cabintimers have raved about the boat parade and private fireworks across the lake.

Local things to do near Friendship & Adams

• Roche-A-Cri State Park: climb the stairs to the overlook, scout the trails, and snap that panoramic photo.
• Friendship Lake & Castle Rock Lake: split your time between a calm paddle on Friendship and a bigger-water boating day on Castle Rock County Park’s launch and swim beach.
• Sand Valley (Nekoosa): golfers can tee it up on nationally recognized courses; non-golfers can explore dunes, fat-tire biking, paddling, or winter curling and ice fishing.
• Wisconsin Dells: waterpark fun, Upper/Lower Dells boat tours, mini golf, and retro supper clubs.

Good to know

Two-night minimums keep weekends relaxed. The pier is removed during winter (common on Central Wisconsin lakes). Bring your favorite beans for the coffee maker and settle into a full kitchen with the essentials, from a dishwasher to spices. There’s boat and trailer parking if you’re towing, plus a private dock for easy tie-ups when the pier is in.
