Beautiful Lake House with sunset views, foosball table, huge yard, private dock!

New for 2021 - all new luxury TUFT & NEEDLE mattresses to ensure our guests sleep comfortably & enhanced cleaning procedures.

Enjoy a relaxing or exciting family and friends get-away in this private luxury 5 bedroom home on Lake Arbutus! This home has trail access to more than 235 miles of 4 wheeler trails, has a private sandy beach that gradually slopes into the water, and a large floating dock to jump off of into beautiful Lake Arbutus! Watch the sunset from one of two balconies or on the outdoor patio while making s’mores in the fire pit or toasting a glass of wine by the outdoor fireplace. This spacious home is perfect for all occasions with plenty of room for all your guests, while still allowing plenty of privacy from the stresses of everyday life.

Within five miles of this location is a terrific supper club (Stronesthrow). Many of our guests travel by boat to enjoy two popular places such as: hand-dipped ice cream counter, Lake Arbutus Sportsbar, Grill & Resort (horseshoes, mini golf, sand volleyball, arcade, etc.), the famous Tiki bar overlooking the lake, weekend breakfast at the Little Bar, and two campgrounds with beaches and playgrounds!!! The house is located on the 4-wheeler trails, so no need to trailer once you arrive in the driveway. Clark and Jackson County are the best ATV and single-track motorcycle trails in the Midwest – with over 235 miles of trails to explore! Canoe and kayak rentals available at Hatfield Sports Shop.

About 10 miles away is Lake Wazee where people enjoy fishing, sightseeing, and scuba diving in Wisconsin’s clearest and deepest lake. Ho Chunk Casino and Hoffman Aquatic Center are also just 13 miles away in Black River Falls. There are also plenty of small shops, wineries, and places to eat in Hatfield and the small surrounding towns. Levis Mound, only 15 miles away, offers hiking, snowshoeing, and mountain biking. Bruce Mound, about 5 miles away, offers winter skiing, snowboarding, and tubing.

Hatfield has a little something for everyone to enjoy no matter what your interests may be.

Frequently asked questions:
Is there a place to rent/dock a pontoon boat (or other boat) near the property?
We have a large floating dock that travelers are welcome to use! Kayak and Canoe rentals are available at Hatfield Sports Shop http://www.hatfieldsportsshop.com/.

Is it safe for kids to swim in front of the property? (Does the water get very deep very fast etc.)
Yes, it is safe for children to swim in front of the property, but of course please watch them closely at all times! The sandy beach gradually goes into the water. About 7 feet out it drops to about 5 feet deep. If you have older kids the water at the end of the dock is only about 8 feet deep. No deep diving! I jumped off this dock a million times as a kid! :)

What nearby activities are available for kids?
There is a lot for kids to do in the area. There is a roller skating rink right in Hatfield (about 3 miles away from the house). Lake Arbutus Resort (2 miles away by road or accessible by boat) has a tiki bar with a sand area the staff often throws change in for kids to find, they also have slushy drinks (a favorite with the kids in our family), a small arcade in a gazebo off the patio, free mini golf, and volleyball courts. There are two county campgrounds/parks on the lake – both with playgrounds. There is a gas station that has hand dipped ice cream, which the kids in our family also always ask to stop at. I highly suggest the caramel collision if you go! Lake Wazee is a beautiful deep and clear lake to go check out about 13 miles away towards Black River Falls (BRF). In BRF there is an aquatic center and movie theatre. In Neillsville (about 10 miles away) there is a bowling alley, Frisbee golf course, skatepark, and a regular golf course. If your kids like hiking Levis mound is also a great place to go.

What dates do you have available?
Because we just recently listed our home we still have many dates available, but we are booking up quickly! We try our best to keep the calendar updated at all times, so please look at the calendar to see if the week(s) you want are available. Our weekly rentals start on a Friday (check in at 3pm) and end the following Friday (10am check out).

Wondering what your cancellation policy is and payment terms?
We allow guests to cancel 30 days in advance of the check in date. We require half down to secure the reservation and this is non refundable. The remaining balance is collected 30 days prior to check in.

Lake Arbutus Getaway
Excellent property for a large group but not handicapped accessible. Several levels and stairs. Large kitchen/dining space. Everything you need other than personals. Comfortable sleeping accommodations. Well equipped for small children. Wonderful lakeside fire pit, clean beach and great dock for all water activities. Enjoyed watching and hearing the train cross the dam from afar! The fishermen and tubers in our group had a great week!

Annual Family Vacation
This was our 9th year for our families to get together for our annual 4th of July vacation. The time spent at this home was fantastic. The host was very quick to respond to any questions. The home was clean, very roomy giving everyone a place to be. A lot of our time was spend around the kitchen area when inside, meals and playing cards. The outdoors was just as lovely, large yard and nice sandy beach area. Water shoes is a must to use the water as it is very rocky. We enjoyed our stay want would definitely return.

The house was gorgeous, fully stocked, clean to even our standards ;) We were hoping to fish but all the locals say the fishing is non existent in this lake. Would have been nice to know that but to no fault of the property owner.

Awesome Family Vacation
We stayed at this amazing property for our annual family vacation. The place was so beautiful, clean, well stocked & comfortable. Our family was able to spread out in the house & yard & enjoy time together! The dock & beach were a perfect place for the kids to hang out! No need to bring beach & water toys, as there are plenty to go around in the garage! Even yard games, like corn hole, ladder ball, ect. We used the backyard so much! We had no bug issues, so could even enjoy the fire pit in the evenings. Cheryl was so pleasant to work with & you know her goal is to have families create as many memories there as her family did through the years! Thank you Cheryl!

Amazing cabin! Very well supplied with everything you could need. More than enough room for our family of 6 adults and 2 children. Beautiful views of the lake. Great location for our activities. We loved all the little sitting areas, both inside and out, where we could gather as a group or find some quiet time.

Merrillen Lake House
Overall, it was a wonderful place. The home was beautiful was lots of room for everyone. There were many nooks to get some quiet time in. The outdoor space was great for kids to run around and places to play outdoor games. The dock was a nice size. The only downside was that there was alot of debris blown onto the shoreline so the beach wasn't the best. But there was a nice beach across the bay so we canoed over there with the kids one day. Overall, it was great!

The owner/manager was very friendly and easy to communicate. Very nicely decorated cabin, right on a beautiful, quiet lake. The only disappointment we had was the boat rental shop for this lake was closed this year so we couldn’t rent a boat. But the house has a paddle boat and we had a lot of fun with it!
