BEAUTIFUL LOG HOME ON THE WESTERN SHORES OF LAKE PETENWELL
Welcome to Lakeside Lodge on Petenwell Lake. Nestled on a stunning 5.5-acre wooded lot, our log cabin offers a perfect blend of comfort and adventure, making it an ideal getaway for families and friends.
The location puts year-round adventure at your doorstep: boat, fish or paddle straight from the property, then explore the 44,000-acre Necedah National Wildlife Refuge, tee off at nearby Sand Valley, hit the Ho-Chunk Casino (10 minutes), or treat the kids to Wisconsin Dells waterparks (45 minutes). Snowmobile and ATV trails, downhill skiing and state-park hiking keep the itinerary full no matter the season.
***WIFI ***Pet Friendly, $150 per pet per stay ****Woodshed - help yourself ****Central Air
****Attention - The shoreline is owned by the Wisconsin River Power Company and the walk path along the lake is public land to be used for hiking. There is a nice sandy beach with no shoreline rocks just north of the cabin lot and a short walk from the backyard. This beach area can be used to load the boat or park during the day. Leaving the boat unattended is not recommended due to the changing lake winds. You will need to trailer your watercraft each evening since there is no overnight docking on the beach. The cabin property has plenty of space for trailer parking and the nearest public boat launch is just minutes away at Wilderness Park. We appreciate your understanding and hope you enjoy your time at the lake!
Pontoon Rentals: If you’d like to enjoy a day on the water, pontoons are available to rent at The Lure (also Barnum Bay Marina, just across the lake) for $400/full day or $250/half day, plus gas. Advance arrangements are recommended — you can learn more here:
Barnum Bay Marina.
