About this property
Lake Wellness Retreat • Hot Tub • Barrel Sauna • Fireplace • Dog Friendly
Some places let you exhale the minute you arrive. Alpine Oasis is one of them.
Heat, cold, quiet, repeat. Step out of the outdoor barrel sauna into the crisp lake air, then sink into your private hot tub as the trees around Lake Alpine turn gold and red. Back inside, the gas fireplace is on, the hanging swing is calling, and there's a mug waiting at the coffee, tea and hot chocolate bar. Evenings end on the fire pit swings, firewood included, with the stars coming out over the water.
It's a quiet, 50-acre no-wake lake just outside Wautoma, with your private shoreline only a few steps from the door. Come as a couple for an anniversary or a long-overdue reset, or bring a few friends for a wellness weekend. Bring your dog, too: a bed, toys and treats will be waiting.
When you do want to go out, classic supper clubs like Moose Inn and Silvercryst and local coffee shops are close by. And in winter, the sauna and hot tub run all season, with Nordic Mountain about 10 minutes away.

Perfection!
This property has it all!
For a couple who loves to fish, cook a good meal and relax in a hot tub...we could not have asked for more!

Great stay for 4 69 year old friends!
The guys sent me videos of how clean and modern that place was. Being older (69) they appreciated no stairs which is a big deal! They said it was beautiful and can't wait the come back with the wives!
Such an amazing spot! Truly lovely inside and well designed / laid out. The lake is gorgeous, wildlife joined us every day, and the hot tub and boats and dock were wonderful. One of our best vrbo experiences.

Beautiful location, we enjoyed every minute! We loved everything about this house including the pontoon boat, hot tub, and great yard for our dog! We will be back! Caught some great fish too!
We are frequent rentals for long and short trips and will place them at the TOP of what we have rented in the past--the rental had everything we needed! Would stay again.

Great couples getaway
Great couples getaway for the price. Small but quaint. Some thoughtful amenities that most VRBO’s don’t. Beautifully decorated. Would stay at again.
Our stay was amazing and we really had a relaxing break.The place itself is lovely and has all the amenities listed. The kids loved the bunk beds, we enjoyed the hot tub and was able to enjoy the nature around.The owners also were very communicative and quick to respond to an electrical issue where the microwave wasn’t working. Absolutely loved staying here and would love to come again in the summer.

We had an amazing stay at this waterfront property! The location was peaceful and the views were beautiful, making it the perfect place to relax and unwind.The amenities truly made this place stand out. We loved spending time in the hot tub, warming up by the fireplace in the evenings, and enjoying the sauna after a day on the water. Having access to the pontoon, kayaks, and stand-up paddle boards made it easy to explore the lake and added so much fun to our stay.The home was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with everything we needed. It was clear that the owners put a lot of thought into creating a welcoming and enjoyable experience for their guests.We would absolutely recommend this property to anyone looking for a relaxing waterfront getaway with outstanding amenities. Becky truly thought of EVERYTHING, and her communication was top notch. We can't wait to come back!

Wonderful property and great experience. Very clean and well maintained with great amenities. So happy that the pontoon was still available and the weather was warm enough to go out on the water. We enjoyed the fire pit and hot tub as well. Having grocery deliver available was a very nice perk. Would definitely stay again.

The cabin was in a perfect location and is set on a peaceful yard with a great view of the water.

Relaxing Weekend in a Serene Surrounding
A great place on a quiet lake. Erik and Becky provide everything you need to kick back and relax on the shore of wakeless lake. They leave no detail un-met. From the fireplace inside to the spacious dining area, the hot tub, fire pit and pontoon there's everything you need to enjoy your time here Pet-friendly is a plus!
About the host
Hosted by Becky
We're Becky and Eric, longtime Wautoma locals who love the outdoors and have always enjoyed renovating and redesigning homes. Through Tratar Retreats, we've turned that passion into cozy lake houses where families and friends can slow down, make memories and enjoy the natural beauty of central Wisconsin, just like our own family does.
We stock every home the way we'd want it for ourselves, from the coffee bar to the dog treats, so you can show up and relax. We live nearby, usually reply within an hour, and are always happy to share our favorite local restaurants, trails and hidden gems. We can't wait to host you!
Why they chose this property
Lots of lake houses are a hike from the water. Here's what makes Alpine Oasis different:
- Truly on the water. Just a few steps take you from the door to your private pier and sandy beach area on calm, no-wake Lake Alpine.
- A pontoon boat is included. Cruise the lake in the 6-person pontoon all summer (May–September), plus 2 kayaks, 2 paddleboards and a rowboat.
- Hot tub and barrel sauna. Most lake rentals have one. You get both, with lake views and a fire pit a few steps away.
- Sized for couples and small families. Cozy and easy to settle into, with room for up to 6.
- Dog-friendly, for real. A bed, toys and treats are waiting for your pup.
- Hosts who live here. We're longtime Wautoma locals who usually reply within the hour, and guests consistently rate their stays 5 stars.
What makes this property unique
- Private hot tub and outdoor barrel sauna, both open all year
- Fire pit with swings overlooking the lake, firewood included
- A gas fireplace, an indoor hanging swing and big windows framing the lake
- Coffee, tea and hot chocolate bar
- Private shoreline just steps from the door on a quiet no-wake lake
- Dog-friendly, with a bed, toys and treats waiting
- Close to Moose Inn and Silvercryst supper clubs and Nordic Mountain
- Smart-lock self check-in, washer and dryer, and mini-split heat and AC
