Family getaway
We enjoyed a nice, fall family getaway at this property. The location of the home on Lake Wissota is beautiful. Amazing views of the lake and a fabulous dock to fish from or sit and enjoy the beautiful bay the home is located on. The location of the home is quiet and peaceful. There is a great deck looking out at the lake and a big fire pit we enjoyed with smores. We enjoyed lawn games in the large front yard. There was plenty of sleeping room for 5 people. We would have preferred more blankets for the beds and better lighting in the bedrooms, rather than just overhead lighting. The home was nice and clean, and detailed instructions were left for us. Joe was great to work with. We had a very nice and relaxing time at this home and we’d recommend this home for anyone looking for a peaceful getaway on Lake Wissota.

Quiet Cabin on the Lake
We stayed here with 3 adults and 3 kids while visiting family in nearby Eau Claire. The house was great, and had everything we needed. We grilled out on the deck, and hung out by the lake. The layout of the house is a little unusual, but the bed's were comfortable, everything was clean, and it had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. The paddle boards and toys in the boat house were great, and we had a lot of fun on the water. One note that's not completely clear in the pictures is that the dock is down a pretty long stair case from the house. Something to keep in mind for anyone that might have mobility issues. Communication with the owner was great, and he helped us get everything sorted. We had a great time and would stay here again.

Wissota Week
Our family enjoyed the stay on Lake Wissota during the week. The lake tends to be pretty quiet and open to enjoy most days and the weather was great. Joe has made some nice updates to the lake home to make it feel comfortable and clean. There are numerous activities to take advantage of by Chippewa Falls, so that is an added bonus. Our family enjoyed the Northern Wisconsin State Fair and eating out nearby.

Wonderful Lakeside Retreat
My family and I had a wonderful stay at this property. We had an infant under 2 and a 6 and 9 year old. The home had a high chair and pack 'n play and SUP and floaties for the lake. We grilled and enjoyed a scenic dinner on the wide deck. The owner was incredibly responsive and helpful.

Great stay
Had a great time! The host was very nice and responsive. Really liked location, being on the smaller part of the lake was perfect. Less wind less boating traffic. The inside of the house was very clean.

About the host

Hosted by Joe

Host profile image
My wife and I discovered the hidden gem that is Lake Wissota in 2008 while looking for a vacation home somewhere in-between where we both grew up. Chippewa Falls is the (almost) perfect in-between meeting place for our families to get together. We now reside in Minnesota and love being a quick jaunt from our happy place on Wissota.

Why they chose this property

There are many reasons why we fell in love with this property: The great "northwoods" feel of surrounding mature pines, the bird's-eye view of Wissota from the deck, the calmness felt on our protected bay, the ability to boat to bars and restaurants, the close proximity to Chippewa Falls and Eau Claire, our friendly neighborhood loop.... The list goes on!
