About this house rental
Welcome to Papa's Place!
Our comfortable 2 bedroom, 1 bath, lakefront house with a beautiful sunroom. The entire house is yours to feel at home in. It is just steps down to the private dock and grassy lawn. The wrap around patio has a gas BBQ grill and plenty of seating. The balcony overlooks the lake where you can read a book, throw your lines out, or watch the Hydroflites ski show just half block away- which is also where the public boat launch is.
Across the road is a public park with a large playground, and a couple blocks north is the public swim beach. The downtown area has antique stores, restaurants, bars, pubs and more, as well as a grocery store to get yourself stocked for your stay.
There are plenty of fun places to boat to for lunch or a drink. Some of our favorite are Red's Grill and Bar(really good pizza), Pokegama Lakeside Cantina for upscale Mexican,or Gilligan'sfor a lively atmosphere. And they all have live music pretty often too! Our favorite is probably Phills Bar and Grill. A very casual place with a surprisingly amazing menu.
We do not take dogs for allergy reasons, but there are local boarding kennels for your furry family members. Including Cozy Critter Kennel.
We truly hope you enjoy Papa's Place in Chetekas much as we do.

This is the second year we've stayed at Papa's Place. Love the location and property. Have had an ongoing issue with some sort of critters in the walls causing a shortage of sleep. Brought this to the attn. of Karen and she has identified working on the problem. If hunting in the area again, it is likely we would book again.

Papa’s Place was adorable. The perfect size for a family of four. The bath towels were the best we have ever had in a VRBO and the water pressure was amazing! The beds are all nice mattresses and the furniture is clean and comfortable. The dock is really nice and the view is lovely. There is a park right across the street that our kids enjoyed and a beach just up the street! Great stay!

The property was just like the pictures and is conveniently located. We enjoyed sitting on the balcony and dock and the views from inside the home. The home has been updated throughout and worked well for our group of 6. The only issue we had was with the wifi which did not work while we were there. We communicated to the host and she said she would look into it so hopefully it will work for the next guests. Overall, we would definitely return!

We were extremely disappointed in the condition of Papa’s Place. Both inside and outside have not been cared for. The cabin was very dirty inside…has not been fully cleaned in a very long time. The view could have been lovely but the windows were dirty and full of bugs. We also had ants in the kitchen. We only used the fridge. The window air conditioner in the living room kept the cabin cool but was loud. There was a musty smell coming from somewhere.
The outside area was in disrepair and dirty as well. We sat on the dock one evening to watch the water ski show but otherwise didn’t spend time outside. The wood deck needs painting and some wooden steps approaching the cabin are not safe.

Excellent stay & location. Easy lake access. Very clean & comfortable! Temporary big parking lot right across street was helpful. So much fun watching the Chetek Hydroflites perform & practice from deck & adirondack chairs! Will
stay again!

This fantastic cabin right on the lake has everything you need at your finger tips. You could not get a better view and town is just 5 minutes away. My husband and I were very comfortable and the fishing was great!

This was an excellent place to stay to work remotely and to visit with family who live in the area. Who wouldn’t enjoy a beautiful lake view from their “office” window. Very quiet neighborhood with everything needed for my stay very close at hand.

This is a great little cabin on Lake Chetek near the ski show. The girls loved jumping off the dock and swimming and having smores by the fire. Owner is a great communicator. Close to town. We walked to get coffee and ice cream. Perfect for 3-4 people!
