Tucked away along the Chippewa River, Wild River Retreat invites you to kick back and soak up the laid-back vibes of northern Wisconsin. Here, it's all about getting outdoors and having a good time, whether you're paddling down the river in a canoe, casting a line for the big one, or just chilling by the water's edge with a cold drink in hand.

And when it's time to refuel, there's no shortage of places to grab a bite. From cozy diners serving up classic comfort food to friendly taverns pouring cold drinks and good vibes, you'll find plenty of options to satisfy your cravings.

Reviews

Perfect place for a large group. Plenty of parking, plenty of space to spread out...awesome scenery. Owner was very nice and welcoming and the house was better than advertised. Alan Wiedmeyer
The house and property were clean and well maintained. Beautiful little river running through the large open backyard. Very private. It’s what everyone pictures when they describe their dream up north cabin. Absolutely loved it. Everything went perfectly. Lena was great! We’ll definitely be back! Matt Kempfert
