The River House - A Packer Country Retreat: Hike, Fish, ATV, Kayak, Pet friendly

My hubby and I are both serial entrepreneurs. We are laid back, low key, low maintenance types and appreciate hosting the same kind of people! We are both nature-loving and love hunting and fishing and spend as much time as we can doing these things at our remote camp only accessible via water.

We knew the owner, Bill, and he unfortunately had serious health issues. He entered a nursing home and the home was vacant for 3 years. During that time there was power loss and flooding and we had our hands full when we acquired it. We have been working hard ever since to make it comfortable.

The river never freezes in Winter right by the dam, which makes it a neat place to be when everything else is frozen over. It absolutely rages in the Spring, the water has risen as high as the steps, but gradually gets shallower and shallower in the heat of the Summer. Fall is gorgeous. The view is very nice and there is over 2,000 feet of waterfront to enjoy. The water is fresh and clean and you may enjoy tubing or kayaking, wading or fishing here, it is a known hot spot for many kinds of fish, from brown trout, to walleye to small mouth bass and more. In addition there is a boat launch within 1 minute and more walking trails across a quaint bridge and to the other side.
