Jacks Lake Bed and Breakfast is located on a beautiful small lake in the Blue Diamond recreation area of northern Chippewa County. Originally opened in 1992, this was the first off-grid, alternate energy Wisconsin B&B.
Newly remodeled, it now has three room options, including two suites. All guest rooms have great lake and garden views, private baths, and internet access. We serve a full breakfast with organic and local products when possible, and dietary restrictions are accommodated.
A 500 square foot meeting room is also available, and guests have use of a volleyball court, hot tub (seasonal), sauna, and deck.
Starting in 2010 we will have a full time licensed massage therapist on site to help massage away the stress/soreness of everyday life. Emily is well versed in many forms of massage including Thai, we welcome her home (she's our daughter!). We will be posting more info on messages and workshops as the 2010 season approaches.
Swim, fish, canoe or enjoy the peace and quiet of Jacks Lake. Take a short ride to one of the several area lakes, restaurants, golf courses, or to the local section of the Ice Age Trail where you can hike, snowshoe or cross country ski. See our web site for a list of more activities.
While we have hooked up to the local power Co-op, we still produce most of our own electrical power with photovoltaic panels and diesel co-generator. Passive solar provides most of the space heating with an outside wood fired boiler or high efficiency gas boiler as back up for our very comfortable radiant floors. An attached solar greenhouse, super insulated house design and various other energy conservation features are also incorporated. These systems will be explained in our optional tour and information session.
Please, no smoking and no pets. All gentle spirits are welcome!
