Pet Friendly, Lake Fun! Dragonfly Trail Retreat

Very clean, communication great.

My wife and I enjoyed a long weekend at Dragonfly Retreat with our daughter and 2 granddaughters. The location is quiet and peaceful with a peaceful setting , yet ready access to everything Minoqua has to offer. Enjoyed a barbeque and campfire, as well as a visit to Wildwood and the Water Ski Show and visits to several area restaurants, shops and antique stores. We enjoyed having food for the animals so we could watch the deer, squirrels, chipmunks and ducks each morning.

We were cozy and warm this cold winter weekend. Great location a few miles outside Minocqua city center, near Trigs grocery and Walmart, We were skiing and snowshoeing at WinMan with our dogs, so it was great to have a property that welcomes pets! Looks like a fun place for the summer, too, but no dogs off leash at any time so be aware of that.

Dragonfly Trail Retreat is found at the far end of Patricia Lake campground and mobile home park. It has an expansive side yard that is truly a Northwoods getaway with a beautiful view of Patricia Lake, 2 wonderful spots for evening campfires and lots of firewood. The wildlife is abundant- we saw so many kinds of birds, ducks, several kinds of squirrels, and were visited at our evening campfire by deer and a raccoon. The steps to the lake are lovely and newly done and we enjoyed fishing on the dock where my husband caught sunfish, largemouth and bluegill. They also have a nice collection of kayaks, paddle boards and canoes lakeside along with life jackets in the storage shed. Patricia Lake has no public access so you cannot bring your boat here. It is a quiet lake with no gasoline motors allowed. The inside is newly decorated and just lovely with everything you could need- plenty of fluffy towels and blankets. The kitchen is well stocked too. We stayed in the king bedroom and the bed was very comfortable. This rental is close to shopping and restaurants and just minutes from Woodruff and Minocqua. The owner is very accessible and quick to respond. If you want a Northwoods experience with peace and quiet this is it!!
