Small-town charm

Amery is located in western Wisconsin, just over one hour from the Twin Cities. Downtown Amery is a five-minute walk away from the Alcove. There you will find a local ice cream shop, a classic one-screen movie and live theater, coffee shops, gift and antique stores and numerous cafes and restaurants. There are several crafting supply shops nearby. During the summer, there is a local farmers market on Saturdays from 9am-noon and Mondays from 3-6pm. 

The Alcove retreat is only two houses away from the Stower Seven Lakes recreational trail (motorized vehicles are not allowed), which also connects to the Cattail State Trail (motorized vehicles are allowed). There is a public beach only a ten-minute walk away on South Twin Lake. North Twin Lake connects to Pike Lake via a nearby channel. Feel free to use our paddleboat, canoe, or kayak to explore both lakes.
