About this cabin rental

**Only 35 minutes from Sand Valley, world class golf course!**

Spacious 6 bedroom, 3.5 bath cabin located on beautiful Lake Petenwell. Cabin was custom built for the current owners and has been used exclusively for family events and get togethers. With a screened-in front porch and large back deck over-looking the lake the cabin was built with family and the great outdoors in mind.

The house has a master bedroom/bathroom on the main floor, along with a great-room/kitchen/dining area/laundry room and a half bathroom. The upstairs has a full bathroom, 2 bunk-beds in kids room, 2 twins in a second kids room, and 1 king bed, 1 queen and futon in a bonus bedroom. The finish basement has a full bathroom, 2 bedrooms with 1 queen each, a common area with couches and a game table, and an unfinished workout area.

The front porch has a hanging swing and ping pong table. It makes the perfect place to relax and watch the sunset through the pine trees. The back deck spans the back of the house and has 2 outdoor dining tables and chairs, 4 adirondack chairs, a hammock, ring toss game and gas grill. The highlight of the spacious backyard is the custom built-in firepit with 2 log benches and chairs for 6. Relax on the deck gazing at the millions of stars visible without the interference of "city lights" or gather around the firepit telling stories and making s'mores! The perfect get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life!

The cabin sits on 6 acres, mostly wooded and has a good sized front and backyard. The houses in the Petenwell landing area sit behind a path which is maintained by the DNR who owns the shoreline, ensuring that natural setting is preserved. The house also is about 50 yards from the dock and sandy shoreline. The bay is perfect for families, very quite, good for swimming, boating, fishing. If renters would like to bring a boat, we can make our lift available with advance notice. The west side of lake Petenwell is very rural and quiet, but the east side contains a few restaurants located on the water. Nekoosa and Wisconsin Rapids have several restaurants, Wal-mart, Piggly Wiggly, and the area has some world-class golfing available.

Beautiful home and surroundings. Family enjoyed the "beach" area and lawn. Spacious living and dining area easily accommodated our large group. Use of owner paddle craft a plus. The insect traps were to close to the house and the odor was noticeable. All in all a relaxing and memorable vacation. Thanks for a fantastic stay.

Very nice place to stay. Outside kept up very well. Used the porch swing often and enjoyed the fire pit and fireplace when the bugs got bad.

We appreciated: 1. having the pig card to get discounts. 2. having WiFi and streaming options. 3. having dvds for rainy days or evenings. 4. the outdoor and indoor games. 5. having plenty of hot water for lots of showers. 6. having plenty of dishes, pots and pans for cooking and ran dishwasher each night. 7. FYI loved the calphalon pots and pans. I might need to get a set myself … lol 8. access to dock, boat lift, and nearby boat launch. 9. Ample space in home to spread out. Kitchen and dining area were spacious. 10. Property manager was very attentive and responsive. A couple items addressed during stay or offered here for future consideration: 1. Lots of rain drove ants into kitchen … resolved during stay but more attention will be needed. 2. The beds are very firm. Great for some but hard on others. 3. Provide/bring steak knives. 4. Attach headboard to bed in basement near bathroom. Overall good time was had by all. Thanks!

The Cabin On The Lake In The Woods is great vacation home which accommodated our large extended family of 7 adults, 7 children, and 2 Golden Doodles. The home was spacious, clean and had a lovely interior. The home was well stocked with needed cookware and other supplies. There were a number of outside toys for children to use including a canoe and two kayaks. Although Buffalo gnats or Black flies at this time of the year along the Wisconsin River can make outside activities difficult, the spacious Great room, kitchen, and deck accommodated our inside family activities. We loved the garage refrigerator and first floor laundry facilities was appreciated for our active family. The cabin is situated in a large wooded lot and is very private. Lake Pentenwell is beautiful and does not have the boating activity that the sister lake Castle Rock has during the summer months. All said, I would be interested in renting again during the winter months given the fire plqces and ability to use the frozen lake for ice fishing and other winter activities (also no Buffalo gnats to contend with). Thanks Kristine Blessing for making this property available for get aways.

My husband, 3 children, their spouses, and our 7 grandchildren, ages 8-21, all had a wonderful, busy, and relaxing time at the beautiful lake house. All the amenities available in the house and the available lake made for a week of no one being bored and all appreciating the beautiful wooded lakeside site. Except for four members going birdwatching in nearby parks, there was no need to leave the place to find entertainment. The house was so spacious and gave all privacy when needed. Definitely a winner for us.

I would stay here again, it is great for a large group! This was a very nice house with lots of rooms and it was great to be able to use the dock for a boat. Kitchen had all the things you needed to cook with. Lake was nice. To get to the boat and beach, which was not really a beach, was a staircase, thought was easier access. Over all though a great place.
