| Woodside Ranch
Families have been vacationing here for more than 75 years.
By Barbara Humeston, Contributing Editor, Midwest Living
Woodside Ranch, a casual 1,200-acre spread in south-central Wisconsin, overlooks a river valley from a wooded hillside five miles east of Mauston (20 miles northwest of Wisconsin Dells).
Activities at this working ranch include horseback riding, fishing and boating in a private lake, tennis, swimming in a heated pool, hiking and miniature golf. Trail breakfasts, buffalo cookouts and covered-wagon rides add to the western-style fun.
Guests stay in one- to three-bedroom cabins or in rooms at the ranch house. Accommodations are nothing fancy, but comfortable. Home-cooked all-you-can-eat meals served family-style highlight each day.
