Lake Petenwell is the 2nd largest inland lake in Wisconsin with 23,000 acres, featuring excellent boating, swimming and fishing. Explore and take in nature at the Necedah National Wildlife Refuge with visitor center, walking paths, lookout towers and bicycling this 44,000 acre park. Only 10 minutes to Nekoosa HoChunk casino, 15 minutes to the WI Rapids, and 45 minutes to the Wisconsin Dells attractions for a full day of activities for the kids. Or take a day trip to Spring Green, Frank Lloyd Wright center, and the House on the Rock. Relaxation or water-front activities ... the choice is yours!

Feel free to enjoy the clean, sandy beach directly in front of the home—perfect for launching your kayak, sunbathing, and swimming. You’ll also have access to the community pier just a short walk from the backyard, great for fishing or jumping in for a swim. You may tie off your boat on the edge during the day, but long-term or overnight docking is not allowed.

If you are bringing your own watercraft or renting locally, please plan accordingly, as overnight docking is not permitted anywhere on Lake Petenwell. You will need to trailer your watercraft each evening. The property has plenty of space for trailers, and the nearest boat launch is just minutes away.

Please also note that the shoreline is owned by the local power company, and we must follow their regulations. This includes removing all items such as toys, chairs, and kayaks from the beach or shoreline each night and bringing them back up to the house.

Thanks so much for your understanding—we hope you have a fantastic stay and enjoy everything the lake has to offer!
