My husband, Curt, and I live on beautiful Lake Petenwell in central Wisconsin. We own a 38ft Winnebago Adventurer and have been RVing since 2017. We camp some in the summer but it's hard to leave our lake home, so we use our coach mostly in the winter when we travel as snowbirds, spending our time in Mesa, AZ.

    on our return to Chicago from the Michigan UP we were looking for a nice quiet spot to rest up and this was exactly the place. It’s a ways off the interstate but it was a pleasant drive to get there. The hosts were not at the home but invited us to stay and enjoy their lake view and dock. The area to park is a gravel drive to a large garage opposite their home. It was an easy setup. The road has several lake homes and the neighborhood was very quiet being the shoulder season. The lake offered a nice breeze for a very comfortable sleep and there is a view of the lake from across the road. The hosts kept in touch via HH messenger and provided goid direction. Highly reccomend!

    Curt and Deb were so gracious and allowed us to stay as they were traveling back from vacation. Once they were home we enjoyed meeting and chatting with them. The location is so tranquil with views of Lake Petenwell. They have done a wonderful job creating a comfortable, private, and level spot. Also, they allowed us to enjoy their dock to fish, which was a success: caught a large catfish. 👏 As we were leaving, Deb was so kind and gave us fresh beans and tomatoes from the garden. Deb, they tasted amazing!! Thanks very much for the great stay! Note, they told us about their daughter and son-in-law having a HH called Jeremiah’s Bullfrog Fish Farm where you can fish for rainbow trout. It’s in Menomonie, WI. So, we stayed there too. We highly recommend staying at both of these places!!

    What a wonderful spot! Despite having visiting family, our hosts graciously took the time to welcome us, make sure we were all set, and even to visit us while we relaxed reading books on their boat dock! The parking area is ideal: it's the level, firm, well-shaded driveway (across the street from their home) for the barn in which they store their own motorhome. The lakeside neighborhood was as quiet and safe as any location we've been, either BW or HH. Thanks for the refreshing stay!

    I stayed 4th of July weekend. The hosts had to leave the lake to visit family but offered dock access in their absence. Beautiful spot.
