About this property
Beautiful private Tainter Lake Retreat in Western WI. Sleeps 10
Getaway with the whole family in our gorgeous Chalet style lake retreat! Or escape the hustle and bustle to enjoy a fun, relaxing, peaceful getaway for business or recreation. This property is at the very end of a private dead end road on a very large 1.4 acre lot. Sleeps 10 guests(8 adults maximum, 10 guests total). 3 bedrooms, large sleeping loft, 8 beds, 2 baths, 2 full kitchens and living rooms and an open concept on main floor with fireplace, very large walk out deck overlooking the lake. Large windows surround the house to enjoy all the wildlife on the river and all around the property. Great for multi family vacations.
You'll love the durable laminate floors, granite countertops, large window views and rustic but modern feel that makes this place so cozy!
**BONUS about this location**
The property is located within a quick on foot stroll to Western Wisconsin's premier supper club, Jake's. Jake's has three decks and a fabulous Tiki bar over looking the lake with live bands every weekend in the summer months. Pioneer Bar & Grill is across the road from Jake's Supper Club, in a country setting with great entertainment!
There are nearby restaurants that are accessible by water or land.
Elk Point Resort is easy access by boat or vehicle. Elk Point Resort has karaoke every Saturday night and put on the BEST firework show every year on July 3rd. Great food and fun atmosphere!
Cottage Winery, Lucette Brewery, Golf courses, Red cedar Speedway, WoodWind Park, Hoffman Hills State Recreation, Devils Punchbowl, Valley Pasture Pumpkin Patch, Govin Farm and more family entertainment less than 15 mins away from this amazing property!!!
Summer months are great for soaking up the sun, boating, kayaking and fishing. Large backyard for games, and peaceful evenings with friends and family roasting marshmallows around the campfire, we have plenty of firewood for you to use.
Winter doesn't mean you have to stay home cooped up! Whether you love to enjoy the snowy outdoors or want to snuggle up in this rustic retreat. Ice fishing, snow shoeing, sledding and snowmobiling are some great winter activities.

Kayaks available for your stay. Pontoon boat rental available for experienced boaters.
Tainter Lake is approximately a 1605 acre lake located in Dunn county. It has a maximum depth of about 37 feet. Depending on the weather in the summer months, the water clarity can be low due to algae growth. Later in the summer months this lake tends to get a bit green. May until early July are the best months to enjoy swimming. Still a great size lake for boating, kayaking and fishing!

About the host
Hosted by Teresa Tangen
Hello! I live right in Menomonie close to the Retreat if you are needing help during your stay. We have a farm that keeps us very busy but love all of the things Menomonie provides. I also book retreats if you are wanting to have a fun girls weekend away with a purpose. Some retreat ideas you maybe interested in are Crafting/wood sign making, health coaching and healthy living, outdoor activies/hiking, spiritual/yoga, and business retreats.

What makes this property unique
Right at the end of a dead end road with a private lot surrounded by trees and vegetation makes this location super private. Not to mention the super quick stroll to be at one of Western Wisconsins nicest supper clubs!
