About this house rental

This lovely waterfront retreat on the Chippewa River offers plenty of space for the whole family, featuring a main home plus a fully furnished private studio (converted from the attached garage) complete with its own full kitchen and beautiful river views.
Tucked away on a quiet dead-end road, you’ll enjoy peaceful surroundings with direct access to Lake Wissota. Spend your days boating to popular lakeside eateries and sandbar beaches along 60 miles of shoreline, then tie up at your private dock to unwind. Fish off the dock, relax on the patio, or gather around the fire in the evening.
Located just three blocks from bike and snowmobile trails, this property offers endless options for adventure and relaxation in every season.

Upstairs, you’ll find a large living room with an additional sleeper sofa, along with a full kitchen featuring new appliances and a generous island ideal for cooking and gathering. A cozy drink bar with seating overlooks the Chippewa River — perfect for morning coffee or evening cocktails. On rainy days, enjoy three big-screen TVs, two wood-burning fireplaces, and inviting spaces designed for relaxing together.

Studio:
Attached to the home is a private, fully furnished studio apartment offering a queen bed, sleeper sofa, full kitchen, bathroom, and large-screen TV. It’s the perfect setup for extended family or guests who would like their own quiet retreat while still being close to the action.

It was a great space for 8 women to stay and really enjoyed the setting next to the river. The host was very responsive with any questions regarding the home. She responsded in a very timely fashion. Lots of great kitchen dishes, pots, pans, etc.

Great place for a family getaway. Beautiful quiet setting with a spacious well maintained exceptionally clean house on the Chippewa River. There are plenty of sleeping places and bathrooms. Great deck for morning coffee and fire pit for evening chats and marshmallow roast. Would definitely like to come back again.
6.0 / 10.0Average·Aug 2025
The home offers nice spaces for families to gather, both inside and out. The main level is great. There are a few things though, that guests should know:The bedrooms are on the lower level, which is mostly underground and had a strong musty smell typical of damp basements. Opening windows helped but a king room lacks a window screen, letting in bugs when any lights were on, had a very large 3ft spiderweb over the bed and a decent level of dust on the blinds. All lower-level bedrooms and pull-out couch room share one bathroom (for 8 ppl). Pull-out couches have thin mattresses; top bunk isn't flush to the wall and doesn't have a rail there. The lower studio apartment garage space is nice, and did not have the mildew smell.All bathrooms lacked shampoo, conditioner, and soap despite the listing offering amenities. All bath soap dispensers were 90% diluted, and thereby ineffective.Outdoors was nice but needs a bit more detailed upkeep— vegetation covered half the pier, gutters were full of plants. If you plan to swim, know that the river water is brown.Despite these notes, we did have a nice stay. Closer attention to detail with cleanliness, amenities and upkeep would have earned it a better rating. Note: There were unfounded allegations from the cleaning service which we disputed. We had done multiple thorough walk-thrus before we left, and left the home in perfect condition. Guests should be aware and consider taking a detailed video or pics before you leave.
