Peninsula Paradise on Rice Lake
Welcome to Peninsula Paradise on Rice Lake! Nestled at the end of a peaceful, secluded road, this stunning lakeside retreat offers 230 feet of wade-in frontage and panoramic views. Perfectly designed for relaxation, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home sleeping 8 is furnished with contemporary lake decor and set just steps from the water's edge. Outdoors, guests will find two private piers, multiple patios, a fire pit, and ample space for outdoor lounging under the majestic pines—a true Northwoods vibe!
Rice Lake is best described as one of those "hidden gem", all-sports lakes, ideal for trophy bass fishing, water skiing, jet skiing, or kayaking. Plus, you're adjacent to Whitewater Lake's beach, marina, and scenic hiking, biking, and snowmobile trails through the beautiful Kettle Moraine Forest. Enjoy the best of the lake life and endless outdoor adventures—perfect for your next getaway!
Beyond its unique, point location, this Rice Lake gem is laid out with comfort in mind. It features an open-concept primary level, including a small but fully-equipped kitchen. The main living area, highlighted by a six-person dining table, couch seating, TV, and a cozy wood-burning fire place, opens right up to a sun room with 270-degree water views. Step out onto the raised patio for the ultimate coffee or cocktail spot! Two bedrooms can be found on the main level, each housing a queen bed, while a full bathroom (tub-shower combo) serves these these two sleeping rooms. Moving downstairs, guests will find an additional entertainment area with a wet bar, secondary TV space and seating for five (incl. queen futon), along with the final bunk bedroom that features a queen (note: top bunk is for storage only). A full bathroom can be found on the lower level, including another tub-shower combo.
Properties like Peninsula Paradise are hard to come by in our area- Less than two hours from Chicago and only an hour from Milwaukee, Rice Lake exudes a feel that is normally only achieved by taking a 5+ hour drive to the northern part of the state.

However guests may use the outdoor firepit. *A pair of kayaks have been provided for guest use.

the home was beautiful - well stocked with all of the essentials - our family enjoyed our stay there - the only improvement I would recommend is - to have a small area along the lake edge - make a small "sandy beach area" where the little ones could enjoy the lake more - otherwise, we were very pleased

Wonderfully peaceful
This property and home are beautiful. We swam, kayaked, and fished everyday. Enjoyed some local hiking. My husband golfed nearby. The views in the early morning and evening are amazing. The home is great for families with teens due to the downstairs rec area. We loved it and will definitely try to book again.

Nice property. Being a boat or pontoon if you have one. Boat launch across the lake and plenty of dock space. Massive fireworks all around the property. We brought extra kayaks as two are on the property. Lots of water time spent. All had a great time. Spent some time golfing. Several courses 30 to 50 minutes north to east. Nice courses. Check out time was at 10 am. Noon time would be better. Overall a nice stay.
