Lake Aus
There are plenty of things to do during your stay, such as
skiing, mountain biking, hiking, horseback riding, fly-fish-
ing, kayaking, and more. All of this takes place in the
breathtaking land that surrounds this once-forgotten min-
ing town.
“This perfectly restored ghost town thrives on contradic-
tions; hand-hewn log cabins exquisitely furnished, a life-
worn saloon serving food of startling quality, lung torturing
trails followed by pampering massages, sensuous hot
springs beneath shimmering snow banks. Free of cell
phones, this romantic old mining town still provides high
speed wireless internet access in every cabin and video
conferencing in our dance hall to the comforting sound of
a tumbling waterfall.” – Dunton Hot Springs Resort
Special rates and packages are offered seasonally for
everything from big celebrations, to a 4-night fly-fishing ad-
venture. Go to www.duntonhotsprings.com for more infor-
mation.
3. Candlewood Cabins - Wisconsin
3.
The Meadow House is
one of the most popular
cabin choices at Candlewood.
Norbert and Susan Calnin have created Candlewood Cab-
ins over the years since they purchased the 80-acre prop-
erty in the early 80s.
“They began Candlewood Cabins in 1995 with the goal of
creating a peaceful escape for their guests. What started
with a single cabin has grown into five, and they continue
to fulfill the same dream of offering every guest the space
to relax, enjoy the quiet surroundings, and unplug.” – Can-
dlewood Cabins
It is no wonder that guests are encouraged to book way
in advance. Some cancelations will allow for immediate
booking, but it is best to call and reserve your cabin
months ahead of time. Once you land a reservation and
head to Candlewood, you will see why so many visitors
keep coming back year after year.

Enjoy activities like world-class trout fishing, hunting, nature
walks, tubing and canoeing adventures, and in the winter,
you can even rent snowshoes! The Glass House and the
Meadow House are probably the two most popular
houses at Candlewood. The Glass House is open from
April to November, and offers panoramic views of the sur-
rounding woods, with a rustic footbridge that will lead you
to the bathroom and kitchen area. The Meadow House
provides the same panoramic views with floor-to-ceiling
window panes, but is set in a clearing in the woods to allow
for maximum exposure. The views of the rolling hills and
surrounding mountains will stop you in your tracks.
