Thank you so much for the fantastic review, Duane! We were absolutely thrilled you were able to tack on some days trip and stay at Hidden above At Prairie Lake! It sounds like you made the absolute most of your time exploring the water and the town (and enjoying some great food!). You were a wonderful, easygoing guest, and you are welcome back anytime you need another local getaway. Safe travels!

A fantastic lake home with great amenities. From the bedding to the dinnerware, everything made this property feel like a home. Check in was easy and communication with the property owner was helpful and prompt. Plenty of space for our 2 families of 4 to enjoy without over-crowding.

We had so much fun at this home with our kids, and their grandparents. Very clean. Plenty of room and space. Ping pong table and walk out basement was really great. The little town is great. Most places take a credit card, but some are cash only. The screened in porch was great at night. We will be back for sure!!

The house was lovely, cozy, and thoughtfully supplied. We rented a 24' pontoon from the resort two doors down and had no trouble docking it or moving it into and out of the cove. There were quite a few high-quality life jackets in the basement to use as well as beach towels. We were with two other couples (plus a small dog and a young child) and had plenty of room to spread out and feel at home. The owner was responsive to questions and easy to work with. We would certainly recommend it and will definitely stay there again if and when we return to Chetek.

We loved our stay at Hidden Cove!! Our family of 11 (6 adults , 5 littles) enjoyed, swimming, fishing, and cruising the chain on our pontoon. The screened deck area was a favorite spot for morning coffee and evening refreshments. We highly recommend this very clean, adequately supplied, spacious place and hope to stay again next year. Book it….you will not be disappointed!
