Papa's Place

Welcome to Papa's Place!
Our comfortable 2 bedroom, 1 bath, lakefront house with a beautiful sunroom. The entire house is yours to feel at home in. It is just steps down to the private dock and grassy lawn. The wrap around patio has a gas BBQ grill and plenty of seating. The balcony overlooks the lake where you can read a book, throw your lines out, or watch the Hydroflites ski show just half block away- which is also where the public boat launch is.
Across the road is a public park with a large playground, and a couple blocks north is the public swim beach. The downtown area has antique stores, restaurants, bars, pubs and more, as well as a grocery store to get yourself stocked for your stay. 
There are plenty of fun places to boat to for lunch or a drink. Some of our favorite are Red's Grill and Bar (really good pizza), Pokegama Lakeside Cantina for upscale Mexican, or Gilligan's for a lively atmosphere. And they all have live music pretty often too! Our favorite is probably Phills Bar and Grill. A very casual place with a surprisingly amazing menu.
We do not take dogs for allergy reasons, but there are local boarding kennels for your furry family members. Including Cozy Critter Kennel.
We truly hope you enjoy Papa's Place in Chetek as much as we do.

Great remote work location
This was an excellent place to stay to work remotely and to visit with family who live in the area. Who wouldn’t enjoy a beautiful lake view from their “office” window. Very quiet neighborhood with everything needed for my stay very close at hand.

Great little cabin!
This is a great little cabin on Lake Chetek near the ski show. The girls loved jumping off the dock and swimming and having smores by the fire. Owner is a great communicator. Close to town. We walked to get coffee and ice cream. Perfect for 3-4 people!
