Hidden Oasis: Indoor Jungle Room, Pool, Sauna, Hot Tub & Private Lake

HIDDEN OASIS | Indoor Jungle with Waterfall, Heated Pool, Cedar Sauna, Hot Tub & Private Lake on 17 Acres

Step into a 20-foot-tall indoor jungle with skylights, a waterfall, and a river running to a pond, then swim in the indoor pool right next door. Warm up in the cedar sauna for 8 or the hot tub for 7, play in the game room, and head out to your private 3.5-acre spring-fed lake. Hidden Oasis went viral on Zillow and has been featured on TV and in the media. It sits just 20 minutes from downtown Milwaukee and is built for family reunions, friend getaways, and group retreats of up to 18 guests. Stay 7 nights or more and the sauna and hot tub are included.

THE HOUSE (6,000+ sq ft)

Jungle room: a 20-foot-high indoor jungle with skylights, a waterfall, and a flowing river that runs to a pond. Exotic plants and banana trees surround you. Think Rainforest Cafe meets Jumanji meets The Flintstones. It sits right beside the pool.
Indoor pool: about 5 feet deep and kept at 86°F, so it’s fun for kids and adults in any weather.
Cedar sauna (seats 8) and hot tub (seats 7): on the covered pergola patio under string lights, with direct access from the jungle room.
Game room: ping pong, foosball, a bar area, 50+ board and card games, and a kitchenette for snacks.
TV room: above the game room, with an 80-inch smart TV, sectional seating for 8, a fireplace, a poker table for 6, and a kitchenette.
Kitchen and dining: fully stocked for everything from gourmet dinners to frozen pizzas, with seating for 16 and 16 handcrafted butterfly chairs.
Bedrooms: 6 unique bedrooms with boutique-hotel linens and pillows.

THE GROUNDS

A tree-canopied private driveway leads you in, so you’ll feel far from the city.
Covered pergola patio with a fire pit, attached to the house, for evenings in any weather.
The lake is stocked with pike and bass for catch-and-release fishing, ideal for first-time anglers and seasoned ones. Fishing gear is provided.
Kayaks, stand-up paddleboards, a rowboat, and a dock for warm months.
A sandy beach with kids’ toys and floaties.
A gas grill for outdoor feasts.
Wildlife to spot, including a family of beavers on the island and nesting turtles.

All 6 bedrooms have central air and privacy doors. Two bedrooms are fully private. Four have a wall facing the jungle room, so expect some light and sound from it. Bedroom 1 is on the first floor. Three staircases lead up to the mammoth, cave, and castle (stone) rooms and the TV room, all above the pool. A fourth staircase leads to Bedrooms 3 and 6.

GOOD TO KNOW

The home is partially underground in a forest-and-pond setting, so you may see insects or wildlife. We work to keep the property comfortable with regular pest control, seasonal mosquito treatments, and a licensed biologist who manages the lake and indoor jungle ecosystem, but nature is part of the experience here.
The custom design includes stairs, uneven hard surfaces, and wet areas (the pool deck and jungle room paths can be slippery). There is no elevator, and four staircases lead to the upper level: three go to the rooms above the pool, and one goes to Bedrooms 3 and 6. Please supervise children.
Check-in age: 25+, no smoking, no pets (service animals welcome). Private events can be approved for an additional fee.
