About this property

Popple Lake House Getaway

The property address: 14646 184th St., Jim Falls, WI.
It is located on Popple Lake which is a smaller lake with many natural beauties and is also located on a quiet dead end road.
The home is a brand new re-build (2020) and is within 1.5 hours East of Minneapolis.
The house is located in Jim Falls WI, which is only 30 min. from Eau Claire, 15 from Chippewa Falls and 15 from Bloomer.

Popple Lake is a 94 acre lake located in Chippewa County. It has a maximum depth of 25 feet. Visitors have access to the lake from a public boat landing. (No cost) Fish include Panfish, Largemouth Bass, Northern Pike and Walleye.

The property has beautiful views year round of the lake which can be seen throughout the home. The deck is located 20ft from the water, with a nice large dock with chairs, table, bench and stairs with a handle, into the water. It is a Great Lake for swimming and fishing.

The home is a 2 bedroom (queen bed in each room) and 1 bath, living room has 3 futons that can be used as sleeping space, with a Full kitchen. Large kitchen bar to gather at. We have many extras such as board games and TV with Hulu on it for the times you just want to stay in and relax.

VRBO outside amenities.
In the summer, there is an Aqua lily pad and 2 kayaks available (Life jackets provided) (use at own risk) These are included with your stay. The swim raft is NOT part of the VRBO. It is our neighbors, so please respect their property and not use.
There is a private dock out front of the house. Feel free to bring your own boat and park it at the dock during your stay.

In the winter you can ice fish, snowmobile, cross country ski or snow shoe around the lake. Must bring own equipment to do these activities. Nothing is provided at the house.

There is also an area to have a small outside fire. Wood is available at the rental. Please use wood respectfully, we do not charge an added fee for it. There are 6 bag chairs at the house in the closet to use for around the fire.

This property has a studio suite in the front of the house, closest to the road that is NOT part of the VRBO rental.
This is a private suite for the owners to use mostly in the off season when the VRBO is vacant. If it is occupied when the VRBO is being rented, the VRBO guest has full privacy of the yard and dock.
Each unit has a private entry and there is a laundry area between the units that is shared. Each unit has a locked door for privacy that leads to this laundry area.

The public boat landing is just a few minutes from the house.
You can ride your ATV from the driveway to reach trails, bars and restaurants. You can also catch your supper off the dock!

In the winter you can reach snowmobile trails from the lake and the lake is good for ice fishing.

If you needed any quick groceries or gas, their is a Cenex Convenience store in Jim Falls, just minutes away.
There is a wonderful country Bar/supper club within 5 minutes of the house called , “Old Abe’s Supper-club” Look it up to dine in or call for take out.
Also in Jim Falls there is a great bar called Jakes Jim Town Inn. He has great food and it is a nice home town bar.
A near by town to visit while you are in the area is Chippewa Falls. It has a small town feel but many things to do. One place the whole family would enjoy is, Irvine Park. It is a free park with a petting zoo and many hiking trails. They also have an outside Bear and Lion Den exhibit along with others misc. animals from monkeys to Buffalo.
You can take a walk downtown Chippewa and visit our great restaurants and along the way you will have to stop at a few hot spots like Olson’s Ice Cream and the candy store. Mason Shoe Store is a popular place to go along with some other boutique shops in town for the shoppers of the group.
Chippewa Falls is also the home of Jacob Leinenkugels Brewery. They offer tours and have a beautiful lodge to enjoy some of their samples.
There is also a Distillery/Brewery in town. Head toward the river to the “Chippewa River Distillery” They have an upper outside deck that has a beautiful view of the Chippewa River.
This is a beautiful area for a quiet get away any time of year.

Nice, clean place for a small family. We would have enjoyed closet space or at least hooks to hang up jackets and clothes (in the bathroom, too), but other than that it was very comfy.

Beautiful lake view!

We really enjoyed our stay! Description of the rental was very accurate! We had two family members in wheelchairs, very spacious and easy to get around! The bathroom was a little tight getting the wheelchair in and out but we managed OK! Really loved the futons for extra places to sleep! Kitchen was equipped with everything we needed!! Would highly recommend!

Family Getaway

We had a nice family getaway before the craziness of the school year starts. Very quiet and relaxing. The girls enjoyed fishing off the dock and swimming. Had a wonderful breeze coming in through the windows during the day. Only negative was the air conditioners in the bedrooms didn’t work throughout our stay, but the one in the living room kept it comfortable. Overall a wonderful stay and we will definitely be back!

Perfect Family Getaway

I would give a 10 star rating if I could. We will be back! Steve and Melissa are wonderful hosts and pay attention to every detail and are extremely responsive. If you are looking for a big lake to run your speed boat and have a loud party, this isn’t the place for you. It’s a perfect, quiet getaway location with family and friends. Morning coffee on the dock was picturesque!

Very nice stay.

My daughters and I had an amazing vacation here. Everything we would possibly need was provided. Place was beautiful and clean. We loved being able to sit out on the dock and use the kayaks. The lake was clear for swimming and it was nice to have the aqua Lilly pad. It was nice to have a selection of games to play. Very peaceful!! We will be back. 😊

Beautiful cabin on peaceful lake

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our time at the cabin on Popple Lake. The host provided great communication. The property is accurately represented in the description and photos. It is modern and comfortable. What we enjoyed most was the proximity to the lake, watching the beautiful sunsets from the deck, and having access to many thoughtful amenities. From extra tolietries, to the wide array of kitchen supplies, to the kayaks, Lilypad and lifejackets - this is a well-stocked space. Thank you for everything!

Relaxing and beautiful

This property is a great place for anyone! The home is beautiful and set up perfectly All the items you could ever want are there for you. The extra touches like toothbrushes. First aide items etc for emergencies or a great touch! The water is great and the fishing from the dock is great! The kids loves the Kayaks and spent so much time on them as well as the Lilly pad. For sure one that we will look to return to!

Roomy, quiet, and peacefull family get together.

The property is as described in the listing. The interior is a total rebuild with modern amenities. I grew up on the lake so I am familiar with the area. Very spacious accommodations. Very well organized with bedding for futons in separate totes. Kitchen worked great for preparing meals for the family with a spacious outside charcoal grill. It was an unusually hot week for the area but the a/c kept the interior at a steady comfortable temperature. The deck provides nice lake breezes with plenty of seating and close proximity to the dock. The dock is great and the Granddaughters enjoyed the large swim mat. Overall a great family vacation which provided many memories of our times spent on the lake.

The grandma’s

We enjoyed the house and the water toys they had. Fished two nights off the dock. Caught quite a few Sunny’s. Close to towns and lots of things to do and places to eat. The house was supplied with everything we needed. Saw wildlife. Enjoyed the deck . Stayed outside on deck and watched the boated go by and deer across the lake. Had lots of fun! Thank you !!

Vacation Getaway

Communication with homeowner was good, fast, and very responsive. Everything noted was completely accurate to the listing. The cabin was clean and in good working order. Many positives about the cabin itself great location on a fairly quiet lake. The view from inside the cabin of the lake was extremely good. Only minor issue was no exhaust bathroom fan for taking showers in the bathroom. Not sure if it was not working properly or if it just doesn't exist. But bathroom gets very warm and steamy with the door closed. Outside of that everything else was very good, and I would consider renting it again in the future.
