Northwoods Bell Tent Retreat

1 site · Lodging4 acres · Rhinelander, WI

We run a holistic healing retreat from our home, but when we are not doing those we offer up our beautiful bell tents for campers. Each tent has two full beds, side tables with lamps, a fan, and electricity. Our property is on 7.8 acres of which 80% is wooded, and on Fish Lake/Pelican River with a dock for access to the water. There is no public boat launch, so all watercraft must be able to be carried to the water. There is a fire pit by the lake with plenty of seating to hangout and watch the Northern Lights. We have large gardens and chickens plus we work here, so you will see us around. We do have roosters and they do make noise, but we find that our clients get used to them quickly. Our property is a great basecamp for exploring the Northwoods of Wisconsin. Only 10 minutes from downtown Rhinelander, but you feel like you are way out in the woods.

Really enjoyed our 4 day trip here! Lots of really nice sites; pretty heavy RV:tent ratio, which I don't always like. If you're going to camp, then CAMP, not GLAMP;) There is a hiking trail to a small beach(with a playground nearby) or you can rent kayaks, canoes or paddle boards to enjoy on the beautiful lake. About a 10 minute or less drive into town for a couple great ice cream options; which is always a must on our trips! Highly recommend this park.
