Purple Door Retreat- Wi-Fi, 20 Minutes from Wisconsin Dells

This freshly updated lower duplex unit is ready to impress! This apartment has two bedrooms and one full bath. Located in downtown Portage, just 20 minutes from Wisconsin Dells and easy access to the interstate. Cascade mountain just a few minutes away. Lots of natural light and calming color palette will welcome you to relax. There is a driveway for off-street parking for one car and more street parking available. Everything you need for a comfortable stay! The apartment is located on the 1st floor of the house. There is a private outside entrance and keypad door lock for access. (Look for the purple door at the front of the house)

The space is cozy, clean and has many amenities. It features two Queen size bedrooms with dressers/closets to unpack. Other features: new appliances, beautiful leather couch, smart TV with Netflix, WIFI and a porch to sip your coffee.

*Please note- This apartment is older construction and is on the main floor. The upper apartment may have guests as well...these lovely old floors are squeaky and the noise will carry to this unit. Each apartment asks for quiet time at 10:00pm.


Guests can access the unit through a private outside door with a Smart Lock Deadbolt.
Short walk to Neil's Wine Bar. Close to restaurants, movie theatre and the Levee walk along the Wisconsin River. Also a 10 minute walk to a skate park and splash pad

Perfect retreat

We were looking for a cozy place to spend the Holiday break, not too far from ski slopes... and the Purple Door was perfect for us. Eventhough this is an old house, it is charming, clean and equipped with everything needed to spend a nice long relaxing weekend. WIll have to come back to visit Portage!

Perfect stay

This place was perfect for my needs. The kitchen had everything I needed to prepare my meals. I slept comfortably in the supportive, yet cozy, bed. The WiFi worked flawlessly and the speed was more than enough to be able to work remotely. The neighborhood was quiet & felt safe & was a nice area for a long walk. I would definitely stay here again.

Long weekend

We were looking for a comfortable place to settle while spending a long weekend at the Dells. This place is very clean, comfortable and has every detail covered. I would highly recommend it. For those curious, there were people in the unit above us and we had no problem with noise.

MET BASIC NEEDS

Place was clean and neighbor hood was safe and quiet. The sound from the place above was very loud and lasted all night(running, stomping, jumping). Thankfully they checked out and we got some sleep the next night. Needs more Livingroom seating. The chair is definitely for looks only. Don't forget to sign out of your disney, netflix accounts etc.., that was a nightmare to get my account passwords changed because I forgot to sign out when we left and the next folks were using all of my accounts. overall it met all our needs and bed were very comfortable. i would suggest the owner communicate with vacationers through the VRBO site or via phone. But she did great in helping gain access to our duplex.
