If life has been loud lately, this is your place to exhale. Owl's Roost Cabin sits within Sandstone Rustic Retreat’s private, six acre nature‑forward boutique resort in Wisconsin Dells, designed for couples who want more stars, fewer people, and space to truly reconnect. Pine‑lined trails. A raised boardwalk through a sandstone canyon to the river. Evenings around the fire. Slow mornings with fresh roasted coffee. And yes — your well‑behaved pup is welcome, too.

Good to know

Your Cabin Owl's Roost is a thoughtfully appointed one-bedroom cabin designed for quiet connection and simple comfort. Inside, a comfortable queen bed with soft, hotel-quality sheets and layered blankets invites slow mornings and unhurried evenings. Warm bedside lighting creates an intimate glow, while the uncluttered layout keeps the space calm and easy to settle into. The kitchenette is well-equipped for real meals — perfect for breakfast together, a relaxed dinner in, or wine and appetizers before heading to the fire. It offers everything you need to cook comfortably, without the footprint of a full kitchen. Luxury here isn’t about excess. It’s about comfort, quiet, and time together. Everything you need with nothing competing for your attention. Many couples tell us they didn’t realize how much they needed this until they spent a couple days together, uninterrupted. The Property Sandstone is a nature‑forward retreat created for a couples‑first experience crafted for intentional time away — and for small groups who want to gather without the noise of a commercial resort. Across six wooded acres you’ll find four private cabins, a king suite cottage, and Dells Domes, our signature glamping dome collection. With additional accommodations planned, capacity increases to 12+ units, with a total capacity of 30-36 people by Summer 2026. The property layout is spacious by design, so everything feels peaceful, never crowded, even at full occupancy. More Stars… Less People. Your Experience *Wander forest trails through whispering pines. *Stroll the sandstone canyon boardwalk to our private dock on the quiet backwaters of the Wisconsin River. *Watch the sunrise. *Sit. *Breathe. *Be present. Two communal fire areas invite connection — a covered deck with a gas firepit and a green‑space wood fire beneath an open sky. The covered outdoor cooking space is designed for relaxed camp meals in any season, with versatile grilling options and comfortable seating — ideal for slow evenings, rainy afternoons, or cooking together without rushing. Frozen pizzas, small‑batch handmade ice cream, and ice are available for purchase, so you don’t have to leave for a late‑night snack. At the heart of the property is the Gathering House, open daily from 6:00am to 12:00am. Self service café‑level espresso drinks, alongside flavored coffees, teas, apple cider, and hot chocolate — with whole milk and sweet cream provided. Sandstone features locally roasted Bella Goose beans and premium syrups to create a delicious cup that starts your morning off just right. You’ll also find several comfortable seating areas, extensive selection of board games, a guitar, fast WiFi, a microwave, and the thoughtful essentials you might need but forgot to pack — from sunblock to dental floss picks — are available if needed. Curated Beverage Experiences Guests may pre‑order from our curated beverage menu featuring local favorites and seasonal selections. Orders are prepared in advance and placed in a branded cooler, ready at check‑in or delivered directly to your cabin. Private bar experiences may also be arranged with advance notice. Intentional experiences are best planned ahead. (Please message us for more details) Your Location Perfectly Secluded. Perfectly Located. Just 1.8 miles from downtown Wisconsin Dells and I‑90/94. Minutes from Lake Delton and all the major attractions and restaurants in the area, Mirror Lake State Park and the famous Ishnala Supper Club. Devil’s Lake is a short 15 minute drive. Close enough for convenience. Far enough for peace. Planning something larger? Sandstone currently hosts up to 26 guests and will expand to 30-36 as new accommodations come online. Ask about multi‑unit bookings or full‑property stays.

Guest Access

Guests are welcome to explore all six acres of Sandstone Rustic Retreat. The Gathering House (open 6:00am–12:00am) is the heart of the property — a cozy space for coffee at sunrise, conversation by the fire, or unwinding at the end of the day. Alongside espresso and tea, we offer a curated drink menu highlighting local flavors — from Wisconsin Old Fashioneds to regional brews. Beverages are available by request and can be delivered to your cabin or picked up at the bar to enjoy anywhere on the property. Private bar experiences can also be arranged prior to your stay (additional charge). Many mornings, the founders join guests for coffee and conversation, a tradition that makes Sandstone mornings memorable. Outdoors, the covered deck, grilling station, and communal firepit are designed for effortless connection. Propane, utensils, glassware, and dishware are provided — just bring your favorite ingredients and beverages to enjoy a meal under the stars. Trails wind through the pines, and a raised boardwalk leads to our private dock on the Wisconsin River — perfect for sunrise coffee, fishing, or simply taking in the view. Seasonally, the No Wake Zone dock bar welcomes guests and river travelers on summer weekends. In winter, the Gathering House occasionally hosts intimate speakeasy nights — rare, unforgettable evenings you’ll want to experience if your stay aligns.

We had a great stay! Tonya was wonderful to work with super responsive and helpful. The cabin and property were perfect for a little getaway. It was peaceful, cozy, and close to all the attractions in the Dells. We especially appreciated how dog-friendly everything was, which made the trip even better. Highly recommend!

Excellent Stay in the Cabin! This is my 3rd visit to Sandstone Rustic Retreat and my 1st stay in a cabin rather than a dome. Each experience has been special and unique. As a solo-female traveler, safety and precaution is key. I feel safe and at home on property. Coffee or a latte in the morning at the clubhouse is top notch on customer service. Tanya's attention to detail is unrivaled to any other Airbnb Stay. I will continue to stay at this gorgeous site hosted by great folks. Thanks again!

It was great staying here! The cabin was very clean, comfortable, and stocked with everything we needed. It was a peaceful, relaxing stay while still being close to downtown. Tanya and Cale provided great local tips and were always available to answer any questions. Highly recommend!

We absolutely loved this cabin — it was the highlight of our four-week road trip! It felt like home the moment we arrived. The soft linens, tasteful decor, and well-stocked kitchen made everything feel cozy and welcoming. We especially appreciated the thoughtful touches like snacks, a water bottle, a towel and treat for our dog, and plenty of hooks for towels and jackets. The A/C unit kept us nice and cool, which was a big plus! The Gathering House was such a bonus — comfy seating, a fancy coffee machine (delicious lattes!), a Keurig with cider and hot chocolate, fun games, and great spots to lounge. It was the perfect place to unwind. Traveling with our pup was a joy here. He loved exploring the walking trails and green space — and so did we! Another huge perk was the relaxed check-out. As frequent travelers, we really appreciated not having to complete a long list of chores before leaving. We would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing, pet-friendly getaway.

We truly enjoyed our stay at Sandstone. Cale and Tonya were great hosts and getting a chance to connect with other guests at the gathering place was an added bonus. We paddle boarded the river, enjoyed the local downtown, and relaxed at the cabin. Overall a 10/10 anniversary trip.
