About this property

Mansion on Lake Tainter

This beautiful Lake House Mansion has it all with an impressive 12,000 sq. foot layout! The Mansion has an ideal location for large groups to gather within a manageable drive to any desired attraction near western Wisconsin . All of the amenities to make you feel at home during your stay with a spacious layout for entertaining and making for a memorable experience.

This property is truly the perfect destination for your family's needs and desires! Gorgeous views, several sitting areas, private bedrooms, 8 fireplaces, 10 TVs, on site laundry and plenty of room in the big kitchen for meals and entertaining. The downstairs great room is a kid friendly area to hangout, play games or lounge on the sectional sofa and watch movies. The floor plan separates the kitchen area from the majority of the bedrooms, so those early to bed or early to rise will not be disturbed. Sleeps up to 20 guests!!! 5 private bedrooms/bathrooms (2 king beds, 3 queen beds) plus kids bunk room and bathroom downstairs ( 2 bunk beds, queen top and bottom; 1 futon bunk bed, twin on top).

Looking for a bit more sleeping space? We have an additional area available to rent that can accommodate up to 6-8 more guests if needed during your stay. These rooms are connected off the downstairs great room. There are 2 private bedrooms (queen beds) and a living room area (2 futons).

Weddings or large events ARE allowed at the Mansion for an additional charge, but will need to be confirmed with Jessica. Maximum number of guests for the day of the event is 50 (20 overnight) and you will need to sign a separate contract before booking. Please contact Jessica for more details.

Summer months are great for soaking up the sun boating, kayaking and fishing. Bring your own boat or rent our pontoon for a daily fee. Large backyard for games, and peaceful evenings with friends and family roasting marshmallows around the campfire.

Winter doesn't mean you have to stay home cooped up! Whether you love to enjoy the snowy outdoors or want to snuggle cozy by one of the fireplaces this Mansion makes for wonderful winter escape. Ice fishing, snow shoeing, sledding and snowmobiling are some great winter activities.

7 night minimum stay during summer months ; 4 night minimum stay other months. Receive 10 % discount for weekly stays during Fall/Winter and Spring!!

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, kayak and fishing!

We have a 22-foot Misty Harbor pontoon available for rent. (includes 15 gallons of fuel and life jackets provided for 10 adults) Credit card on file in case of damages for deposit, $200 per day (2 day minimum) Experienced boaters ONLY!

60th Birthday
This property worked wonderful for our gathering, great kitchen, lower level game room and overall main floor layout. Jessica was very responsive to the few questions we had. I would highly recommend this operty for a largeer gathering. One suggestion is to check the wall outlets, it seemed as if only the bottom ones worked.

Annual Family HallowThanksMas
Each year we have 4 generations that spend an extended weekend together. This property was well maintained and plenty of room!!!! We were all able to have our own rooms and the game room was great!! Ping pong and pool add plenty of space for our Grandkids to run around! A few even ventured out on the kayaks! Would highly recommend!

Spacious and Wonderful!
We stayed at Lake Tainter Mansion for a sibling family reunion and everyone loved it! It was very spacious and each bedroom on the main level having its own private bathroom was greatly appreciated. The mansion is on a beautiful private setting where we often saw eagles and an occasional deer. Jessica was always prompt in replying to any questions we had. Hoping to have an opportunity to return. The bar has been set high!

Excellent place for a long weekend and anniversary party
Place is fun to explore and the rooms are very nice. Perfect for our group of 18 staying, and just under 30 for the party. A bit of a learning curve figuring out the lights, but overall a great property.
