If you're looking to unplug and slow down for a bit, this pet and kid friendly house is the perfect spot. The house is super clean and has everything you need to relax and have fun, including games, a pool table, kayaks, a fire pit, and a pontoon boat. The kitchen is stocked, and has two full-size refrigerators, it's easy to cook meals and stay in when you don't feel like going out.The hosts were incredibly friendly and quick to respond whenever we had questions. They even took the time to walk us through how to use the pontoon, which made getting out on the water easy and stress-free. We had a wonderful stay and would definitely come back!

Great House!

The house was so clean, comfortable, and the pontoon boat was an added bonus. The fire pit was also an excellent addition. The garage with the extra refrigerator was great for larger groups to store all our excess food and drinks. Definitely would recommend this rental house and we will definitely be coming back to Jarvis Lake.

Peaceful, Quiet & Oh So Relaxing

This is such a great location for a relaxing, get-away-from-it -all trip! The lake is small (electric motors only) & so quiet & tranquil to float around on. The fishing was great, nephew caught a few blue gill (& a baby bass that he threw back) enough to make a meal! Kitchen well stocked with dishes, pots & pans, nice appliances. The owners are the BEST! William & Jenny are so easy to work with, and were quick to respond & attentive of our needs.

Family vacation

Everything was very nice. Garage set up was perfect for all the kiddos ages 5 to 17. They loved it. The pontoon boat was a lot of fun to go out on. Everyone loved swimming off of it and fishing. Plus the kayaks were a huge hit. We grilled out every night as well. Large lot and fire pit was also nice for the kiddos.

Our family enjoyed our weeklong stay at this beautiful lake house property on Jasper Lake in Eau Claire. It was quiet, calm, and provided a welcome retreat! The house was nicely stocked, had cool air conditioning, and enough sleeping space for our crew. It was an added bonus that it was pet friendly (for a small added fee). We LOVED going on pontoon boat rides around the lake, fishing, sitting by the dock, and taking in the gorgeous sunsets! Hosts were responsive and helpful with any questions. We highly recommend this VRBO!

Great stay!

This was our second time staying at this house and it was great. Only thing worth mentioning is the pontoon boat pictured is different from the pontoon boat on site. But all in all, access to the boat was our favorite part of the trip. The kids enjoyed the boat and the swimmable lake.

Lovely vacation

We had a very nice time staying here!! There was plenty of space, the beds were comfortable. we loved the pool table in the garage, the kayaks and the boat! The only thing wrong was the sandy beach, which I already talked to the owner and they'll fix it. The pictures with the kayaks is your sandy beach area not the pictures at the end of a beach with the bird.

House by the lake

The inside was very nice and updated but the outside was a little rough. The access to the electric pontoon was fun along with the kayaks. We had a couple of bon fires and we enjoyed playing pool in the game room. The owner was very hospitable letting us use his fishing rod and showing us how to use the boat and answering more of our questions. We had a very comfortable and enjoyable stay.
