Ensure that you have cozy accommodation when you’re ready to hit the hay after an eventful day. Check out our list of the best cabin rentals near Milwaukee, Wisconsin, for a comfortable stay.

3. Secluded log cabin with an outdoor hot tub (from USD 456)
If you’re looking for a deluxe experience in the middle of nowhere, consider this secluded cabin for a weekend getaway. Aside from three bedrooms and two bathrooms, guests will have access to a fully equipped gourmet kitchen and a dining area. For your lounging needs, you’ll find a comfy living space in front of a fireplace, complete with a rustic chandelier.
Arguably, the best perk would have to be the outdoor hot tub, but there’s also a vintage pool table on the lower level to play a few rounds with your loved ones. One dog is welcome to join in the fun.

4. Compact cabin with a fire pit (from USD 147)

Since the lodging is part of Harbor View Motel and Cabins, keep in mind that the open fire pit and picnic tables are common areas, so be prepared to share them with other guests during your stay.

8. Striking cabin with karaoke machine (from USD 145)
Check out this cozy red cabin near downtown Port Washington if you’re looking for both seclusion and convenience during your trip. Don’t be fooled by its small frame. The rental boasts three bedrooms and two bathrooms, with a fair amount of space for a mid-sized group to move around. Down the basement, a lounge area is provided along with the much-hyped karaoke machine where you can enjoy a sing-along.
For a different kind of entertainment, bird feeders are prudently hung right outside the windows, so you can wait for birds that may stop by for a quick meal.
