Across many reviews, Shalom Retreat is praised as a quiet, wooded getaway that is very clean, comfortable, and well equipped for families and groups, offering conveniences like board games, a stocked kitchen, and spaces that make gathering easy.
Several guests note it is a bit far from town, though drives to Granite Peak and nearby outdoor spots such as the Eau Claire Dells were easy. Hosts are consistently responsive, with easy check in and clear instructions. Expect a self-sufficient, group-friendly getaway with nature on your doorstep.

Perfect for my sister and I to meet with our families so we could celebrate a belated Christmas! Plenty of room to gather. Kitchen had everything we needed for dishes and glassware- coffee bar a bonus for coffee and hot chocolate in the morning. I would definitely go back!

We loved this property. We had 5 adults and 2 kids, 7 and 10 years old. One of the adults and the 2 kids hung out at the house while 4 of us hiked many miles of the Ice Age Trail. The kids joined us for a few miles at the Dells of the Eau Claire and then went back to the property to play and hang out. We had a fire in the fire ring, played croquet, and ladder golf. The house was immaculate. Highly recommended!

Extended family all joined together to celebrate birthdays, and just get away. We loved the big yard, picking fresh raspberries for our breakfast, the fire pit, excellent coffee bar, and more. Having the dog stay with us was- major bonus-as he was thrilled to have his “pack” all under one roof. The host was great at communication, and even let us stay a couple extra hours to get one more hike and fishing trip in. We appreciated the ample supplies (toilet paper, paper towels, etc).we would definitely stay here again!

This home was even cuter in person than in the pictures! It was very easy to check in/check out and there was enough space for our family of 5. The kids liked having their own rooms and played with some of the board games. They also had fun exploring the woods. It was very close to the location where we went skiing, so it was an easy commute to and from.

The property was perfect for my spouse, our teenage son and some of his friends, and our dog! The boys had planned to tent in the yard for all four nights of our stay, but due to rainstorms, they slept in the cabin for two. There was plenty of space for this. The boys also enjoyed the yard games and making campfires, while my spouse and I enjoyed the serenity of the setting. Everything was clean and organized, and we had everything we needed. We'd definitely stay again!

We spent one night here after attending the Birds in Art exhibit at the Leigh Yawkey Woodson Art Museum in Wausau (great show!). We didn't arrive until well after dark, but it was relatively easy to find if you pay attention to the house signs. Easy to access, well stocked, comfortable beds, big kitchen table, coffee in the morning. Everything was great - we would definitely stay here again.

Plenty of toys for our 11 month old! The house had great amenities and the linens were so soft! Location was great - close to the Eau Claire Dells and just a short drive to Wausau. The host was quick to respond and very kind. We'll definitely be staying here again on our next visit!

We loved this property. We had 5 adults and 2 kids, 7 and 10 years old. One of the adults and the 2 kids hung out at the house while 4 of us hiked many miles of the Ice Age Trail. The kids joined us for a few miles at the Dells of the Eau Claire and then went back to the property to play and hang out. We had a fire in the fire ring, played croquet, and ladder golf. The house was immaculate. Highly recommended!

Extended family all joined together to celebrate birthdays, and just get away. We loved the big yard, picking fresh raspberries for our breakfast, the fire pit, excellent coffee bar, and more. Having the dog stay with us was- major bonus-as he was thrilled to have his “pack” all under one roof. The host was great at communication, and even let us stay a couple extra hours to get one more hike and fishing trip in. We appreciated the ample supplies (toilet paper, paper towels, etc).we would definitely stay here again!

This is our third time staying here for a winter ski get away and always have an amazing time. All the amenities you need and plenty of space for 6 of us. Only 25 to Granite Peak/Rib Mt. Love grilling out on the gas grill and plenty of room at the table for all to play games.

The property was perfect for my spouse, our teenage son and some of his friends, and our dog! The boys had planned to tent in the yard for all four nights of our stay, but due to rainstorms, they slept in the cabin for two. There was plenty of space for this. The boys also enjoyed the yard games and making campfires, while my spouse and I enjoyed the serenity of the setting. Everything was clean and organized, and we had everything we needed. We'd definitely stay again!

Very impressed with the communication of the host and the cleanliness. This property was very quiet and peaceful. Sitting around the campfire at night and sitting on the back porch during coffee time in the mornings were 2 of my favorite things. Highly recommend this cabin.

nice place, clean. It snowed 3-4" and before we were heading out for the day, the driveway had been plowed.

The house was nice for our needs. The owner brought us things they said the house had but when we arrived those things were not there. The kitchen had limited items which made cooking for 7 a bit of a challenge.
