Tainter Lake is approximately a 1605 acre lake located in Dunn county. It has a maximum depth of about 37 feet. Depending on the weather in the summer months, the water clarity can be low due to algae growth. Later in the summer months this lake tends to get a bit green. May until early July are the best months to enjoy swimming. Still a great size lake for boating, kayaking and fishing!

Great stay!
My friends and I stayed at this location for a couple nights and it was great! They allowed us to use some of their firewood, which was nice due to the weather. Great driveway for beanbags. Close to restaurant and a bar to walk to. The set up was, great inside as well. We will probably look to stay there again next year.

Relaxing on the lake!!
Our stay at this lakefront cottage was fantastic! The location is ideal—quiet, peaceful, and right on the water, offering beautiful scenery and the perfect spot for relaxation. The house was very clean and well-maintained, and it had plenty of beds, which was perfect for our group. The hosts were welcoming and ensured that we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. If you’re looking for a serene, scenic getaway, this cottage is a great choice. We hope to come back soon!

Spacious and lovely
Eight women stayed for a three day weekend. The house was perfect for our needs with lots of beds and two kitchens! The setting is peaceful and beautiful. We spent one evening on the deck relaxing and listening to night noises. The flowers are stunning and much attention has been given to ensure you’ll have everything you need. We will be back!

This beautiful lakeshore home was perfect for the whole family, everyone had their own special space.Morning coffee on the deck or campfires at night were the perfect way to end the day. Close to Jake’s supper club a Wisconsin tradition. The owner many beautiful flowers to appreciate. I look forward to returning.

WI vacation
I booked this stay for my family that was coming into town for my wedding. They came all the way from both Ohio and Arizona and after a long trip this was the perfect place to relax. Very clean and smelled absolutely AMAZING as soon as you walked through the door. Stunning property! Communication was quick and everything about the stay was clearly communicated both by message and by paper when we got to the house. I would recommend this beautiful home for everyone and anyone looking for a place to stay near Menomonie WI.

Wonderful family getaway
This Tainter Lake Retreat was truly a wonderful experience for bringing family together for a summer getaway. The hosts were so accommodating and easy to work with and our experience at the cabin were more than exceeded. We enjoyed the size of the home to have the different families each have a separate space but then a large main area to gather and enjoy. We loved having the two kitchens to help prop for some larger meals. The place was very clean and well maintained. We loved our time cruisong on the water as it really is a beautiful lake. The property is beautiful on the end of the private drive.

Awesome lake house stay!
Our family stayed here a full week and loved it! We enjoyed campfires in both settings(front of house and by the lake), spent hours on the lake kayaking, fishing and swimming, hit the town for thrifting and the Devil's Punch Bowl and spent hours on the decks reading, relaxing and enjoying the wildlife around us! The kids caught all kinds of fish including 6 different species and we were able to have a big fish fry at the end of the week. Teresa was a great host who responded quickly to texts and answered any questions we had. It was a great vacation for all of us with 7 kids ranging in ages 10-20!

We had a great time at this property. Teresa was friendly and easy to work with. The house was spotless and had everything we could possibly need. It has lots of places to gather as a family inside and outside that we enjoyed. It sleeps a lot, so worked great for us. We would definitely go back. Highly recommend.

A wonderful cabin in the woods
We had a wonderful, relaxing long weekend with family and friends. The cabin was wonderful and exactly as shown. Nicely decorated and beds were very comfortable. We loved the patio with fire pit and my little nephews had fun learning to fish down at the lake. This is a great place for family and friends to gather.
