About this property

2 bdrm cottage on the Chippewa River

There’s nothing quite like the outdoors. Whether you enjoy fishing, camping, biking, snowmobiling or hunting, it's all within your grasp. Looking out the front door of this beautiful cottage, you will see the breathtaking beauty of the Chippewa River. This cottage is great in any season. There are 6 windows across the river side of the cottage.
Summertime is great for fishing, boating, kayaking, canoeing or paddle boating. Fall is a great time to take a bike ride on the Old Abe Bike Trail, fish on the Chippewa River or go hunting for local wildlife including squirrel, deer, bear, rabbits, fox, etc. just a short distance away.
Winter is great for snowshoeing, cross country skiing, snowmobiling, and downhill skiing a short distance away.
Spring is a great time to watch the woods come alive after winter. Enjoy family activities such as biking, hiking, fishing and camp fires. Regardless of what season, or all, you intend to visit there is something for everyone.
Local attractions include Ice Age Trail, Leinenkugels Brewery, Brunet Island State Park and close proximity to Lake Holcombe and Lake Wissota. In the summer you are within minutes of the Country Fest and Rock Fest grounds and Jim Falls Sturgeon Festival over Labor Day.

Cottage was clean and comfortable. Hosts were super welcoming and made sure we had everything we needed. The A/C unit could use an upgrade or another one added to the cottage as it had a hard time cooling the space. There to fish and caught Catfish, Perch and Bass.

What we needed

As the title states staying at the cottage was exactly what our family needed. The owners were very nice and communicative the place was clean and quiet. We had grandparents, my wife and I and our child but there's enough room here for all of us to enjoy family time but also each have our own space when needed. In terms of fishing we mainly caught channel cats and sturgeon off the dock fishing off the bottom but we're lucky enough that each one was bigger than the last. It was far enough away from towns that our child was able to see the stars for the first time and overall lovely enough that we created many a core memory for her. Definitely hope to choose this cottage again in the future!

This cottage is the BEST location for us to go to Country Fest. The owners are so very nice and helpful. Love that it is on the river and we can put our kayaks and tubes in right there, and is near bike trail too. Looking forward to going back again next year!

About the host

Hosted by Norm and Sue Peters

Host profile image
My wife and I are originally from Ladysmith, WI, which is about 30 miles north on highway 27. My father bought the cottage shortly after we got married. We lived in it for about 3 years before we built our own home next door. When my parents passed away, we inherited the property. We rented it on an annual basis until the last renter nearly destroyed it. I decided we would try the 'rent by the week' idea and see how it went. We are still fairly new at this and consider all suggestions to improve the cottage.

Why they chose this property

The location is beautiful and relaxing.

What makes this property unique

The view from the dining room and living room windows is beautiful and so peaceful.
