Do you ever just want to get away... I mean really escape? Leave the mundane, and go to a place that's not only outside your daily routine but also sparks your imagination and launches you into a flight of fancy? Well, if you're looking to hop a ship to a magical world, you're in luck - and you don't even have to leave the Badger State to do it.

The ship is one of the units in a compound of unique rentals - three cabins, a yurt, and a pirate ship! - called Glamping Bros. Although the glampround manages to run the compound with a skeleton crew, you won't be steered wrong with a stay at the pirate ship cabin, especially if you bring a little imagination, whimsy, and sense of humor.

The pirate ship cabin sleeps up to six in two bedrooms - a captain's stateroom with a queen-sized bed and an aft quarters that's stacked with four bunks for your crew. There is a galley if you're looking to feed crew, as well. But there is no wifi aboard this ship. Instead, enjoy relaxing with a book and/or a beverage topsides or slide on down to the fire pit and picnic table for a bonfire, marshmallows, and tales of derring-do on the high seas.

Between April and October, water and hot showers are available to guests at the compound's full bathroom; during colder months the water is turned off to avoid frozen pipes, but shared restrooms are provided for guests. Even so, the pirate ship retains is magical quality all year long - and it's only 20 minutes away from Christmas Mountain if you're looking to do some skiing or snowboarding while you're in the area.

With its location near Lyndon Station, your ship is moored in a perfect spot for launching excursions to some of Wisconsin's most popular destinations, like the Wisconsin Dells, Castle Rock Lake, and Devil's Lake State Park - all of which are less than half an hour away.
