Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!' Escape to this peaceful wooded retreat in Arkdale, WI—now offering the option to book both sides of the duplex for a perfect group getaway. Ideal for two families or a larger group, this combined rental provides the comfort of shared outdoor space with the privacy and convenience of separate living areas. Together, the duplex offers two private bedrooms with cozy queen beds, two bathrooms, and two fully equipped kitchens. Each side also features a unique common sleeping space—one with a twin bed and a twin trundle, and the other with a full-sized bed—making it easy to accommodate kids, teens, or extra guests. Surrounded by towering trees and natural beauty, this dual-unit setup lets you enjoy time together outdoors while still retreating to your own private spaces to unwind. Whether you’re grilling dinner, gathering around a campfire, or relaxing inside with fast Wi-Fi and comfortable furnishings, you’ll have all the space and amenities you need. In spring and summer, enjoy kayaking, boating, or fishing at nearby Arkdale Lake or take in the expansive waters of Lake Petenwell and Castle Rock Lake just a short drive away. Golfers will appreciate Northern Bay Golf Course, while families can spend the day at Petenwell County Park, exploring trails, picnic spots, and local events. Biking, hiking, and ATV/UTV trails offer endless ways to explore the area, and small-town festivals bring charm and community spirit throughout the warmer months. Autumn brings a stunning show of color to the region. Take a scenic drive or hike through vibrant woodlands, with opportunities for wildlife viewing and photography along the way. In winter, Arkdale transforms into a snow lover’s paradise with snowmobiling, cross-country skiing, and snowshoeing trails nearby. After a day in the snow, cozy up indoors and stream your favorite shows or enjoy the peaceful surroundings. Local favorites like Island View Restaurant & Lounge and Shady Akers BBQ offer nearby dining options, while the surrounding towns of Friendship and Rome host seasonal events, outdoor movie nights, and farmers markets that make each visit unique. With space for everyone and flexibility for quiet time or together time, this duplex is a perfect all-season destination for families or friends looking to explore Wisconsin’s outdoors while staying comfortably close—yet with room to spread out.

Around 19,000 to 15,000 years ago it was an island rising above Glacial Lake Wisconsin. On top of the bluff grow red oak, black oak, white oak, red pine, white pine, and jack pine. Buzzards also haunt the top.[2]](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/635019176045830144/7aab5d3c-5fe1-4d94-ae58-3b3cde53e280.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Roche-a-Cri State Park 12 min drive \- 5.3 km - Gundersen Moundview Hospital 10 min drive \- 7.4 km - Friendship Beach 12 min drive \- 8.1 km - Castle Rock Lake 14 min drive \- 12.0 km - Northern Bay Golf Course 17 min drive \- 8.4 km ### Getting around - Wisconsin Rapids, WI (ISW-South Wood County) 43 min drive ### Restaurants - Kwik Trip 12 min drive - Kwik Trip 10 min drive - McDonald's 14 min drive - Diamond Jims Corner Bar 10 min drive - Northern Bay Resort 13 min drive ## Frequently asked questions ### Is Two-family retreat with 2 kitchens, wooded charm near lakes, trails & adventure pet-friendly? ### How much is parking? ### What time is check-in at Two-family retreat with 2 kitchens, wooded charm near lakes, trails & adventure? ### What time is check-out at Two-family retreat with 2 kitchens, wooded charm near lakes, trails & adventure? ### Where is Two-family retreat with 2 kitchens, wooded charm near lakes, trails & adventure located? ## Have a question?
