Where to stay in Chetek

On a recent getaway to Canoe Bay near the small town of Chetek, Wisconsin, we ate a German-themed lunch with homemade sausages and sauerkraut at the Chetek Cafe. Tasty! And a cool neon sign to boot.

Downtown Chetek

If you're spending some time in Downtown Chetek, Lake Chetek and Chetek Area Museum are top sights worth seeing.
