Peninsula Paradise is a gorgeous place to spend the weekend no matter what time of the year. There are lake views from almost every area in the home and multiple places to enjoy nature outside. We especially enjoyed fishing off of the deck and even caught a Northern Pike! The home itself is very comfortable for 8 guests. The management company could not have been nicer and were very responsive when we contacted them even though it was late. The proximity to UWW was perfect as we were able to enjoy the peace and quiet of Rice Lake while having easy accesses to the football game at the university. We will definitely keep Peninsula Paradise in our repertoire of places to stay in the Whitewater area.

There were 7 adults and 1 child and there was ample seating in the living area. The yard and lake views were great. The kitchen was small so not more than one could be there comfortably. The refrigerator might need updating. It was a nice lake home and good for our family gathering. Also, the kayaks were fun but suggest maybe having a few life vests for them. The WiFi was great too.

We had a lovely stay at the lake house. The home was exactly as described—clean and quiet. Communication with the host was excellent, and we appreciated the extra touches like plenty of towels and a kitchen with everything we needed. We were in town for an endurance race and had planned to work remotely, so one downside was that the Wi-Fi didn’t work. A note in the house suggests this is a known issue. We needed internet for work, race-day logistics, and checking into our flights. It was a bit stressful, though we were able to borrow a Wi-Fi puck from another traveler. TV service was also out—possibly connected to the Wi-Fi issue. All that said, this is a great option if you’re looking to truly unplug and don’t need reliable Wi-Fi or TV. We really did enjoy our time and would recommend it for a relaxing retreat. Kayaks and an outdoor fire pit were available although we didn't use these. Next time! I would re-book this house should we travel back to the Whitewater area.

We had a wonderful weekend getaway! Everything was just perfect — the beautiful nature, the cozy house, and the peaceful lake. The atmosphere was incredibly charming and relaxing. It truly felt like a hidden gem where you can disconnect and simply enjoy the beauty around you. I would definitely love to come back again!
