"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this rental! The private dock was a great asset and the host was wonderful to work with. When we had questions about the pontoon, somebody was on site to help us in less than 10 minutes. The photos posted are a great representation of what the house and property look like. And we love that we were able to bring our dog! We already rented this place for our vacation next summer and we can’t wait!"

Riverfront Bliss in Rice Lake: Deck, Grill & Hike!

10/10 Excellent
"We booked this property at the last minute because of a problem with another VRBO in the vicinity. Gina was very easy to work with and let us check in early in the day because we were leaving the other property and and we had food that needed to go into the fridge. She was very quick to respond to any questions we had. This property was amazing. It has a lot of acreage and plenty of room to spread out. There are four bedrooms plus an office and three and a half bathrooms. There's also a huge game room in the basement with an 85 inch TV, pool table and cornhole set for outside. The patio is great with a solo stove for fires. The kitchen was beautiful with granite countertops and had everything you need including things you wouldn't expect like a bread maker and everything you might need to cook was available. There is a three-car garage that is available to the renter. The area was very quiet but it was still close to town if you needed things. The view of the River from the back deck was gorgeous."

"We spent a week here with our family and had an absolute blast! The kids loved the game room and pool, while the older kids enjoyed fishing and kayaking on the lake. There was plenty of space for everyone to spread out, relax, and enjoy the property. We happened to visit during a very hot week, but after reaching out to the owner, they quickly brought over an additional A/C unit, which made a big difference. The lake views were amazing, and every evening ended with a beautiful sunset. The host was friendly, responsive, and incredibly helpful throughout our stay. We would definitely recommend this property to anyone looking for a fun and relaxing family getaway!"

"This place was perfect. We had 2 families so the bunk house was a nice plus! The lake is clear. It’s located next to the boat launch but very few boats use it. It was a nice location to load and unload our boats. The yard is nice size and flat to play yard games. Both the home and the bunk house are beautifully decorated. The beds are comfortable with lots of pillows. The host, Josh was very responsive. I had a lot of questions before we arrived and he answered them all timely and thoroughly. The only thing we had to think about on vacation was having fun! It was a perfect destination with gracious hosts."
