Don’t pack away the golf clubs just yet. ⛳️🍂

With beautiful sunny days still reaching the 60s and 70s, there’s plenty of golf left to enjoy in the Northwoods.

If you’re headed to Whiplash this fall, don’t forget to pack your golf bag. There are several great courses nearby, including Big Fish, Hayward Golf Club, Spider Lake Golf Resort, Lakewoods and Lakeview.

A round of golf, fall in the Northwoods and Whiplash to come home to. Sounds pretty good to us. 🌲

Imagine your favorite people gathered by the water, vows surrounded by the Northwoods, dinner under the trees, dancing outside and an entire weekend together instead of just one night.

At Whiplash Retreat, your wedding isn’t confined to a venue. It becomes an experience everyone gets to share.

Six cabins. A private 32 acre lake. 550+ acres. Your own beach. The Boathouse. And a setting that already feels special before you add a single decoration.

Your Northwoods wedding weekend starts here. 🤍

Some of our favorite days at Whiplash are the ones we spend outside together. We love getting out on the trails, jumping on the ATVs, exploring somewhere new and getting a little dirty along the way.

There’s something pretty special about having this much room for family’s to just get out and be adventurous together. These are the Whiplash days we love most. 🌲🍂

Whiplash Retreat is our little slice of the Northwoods in Hayward, Wisconsin, and there is so much more to share.

Follow along. We’re just getting started. 💚

It’s not just the lake days…

it’s the in-between moments - laughing like kids, slowing down, forgetting what day it is.

This is what we come back for.

Give them 550+ acres and see what they find. 🌲

At Whiplash, the best adventures usually aren’t planned.

A trail turns into exploring. Exploring turns into digging, climbing and discovering something they absolutely have to show you later.

There’s a whole lot of room here for kids to be kids.

There’s a lot more to Whiplash than the lake. 🌲

With 550+ acres to explore, some of our favorite moments happen on the trails.

Long walks. Little adventures. Time together without anywhere else to be.

Come for the lake. Stay for everything around it.

Some trips need more than one cabin. 🌲

Twin Pines North + South are made for families and friends who want to stay together with plenty of room to spread out.

And with the holidays ahead, imagine bringing everyone here.

Thanksgiving at the lake.
Christmas in the Northwoods.
New Year’s Eve with the whole family or group of friends.

Big meals around the table. Fires going inside & out. Games downstairs. And everyone gets to stay right here together.

Two cabins. One family getaway. A holiday everyone will remember.

Two years ago today, Whiplash got to be part of something incredibly special. 🤎

On September 21, 2024, dear friends of ours chose Whiplash Retreat for both their wedding ceremony and reception, and it was one of the most beautiful days we’ve ever had here.

They exchanged vows surrounded by the woods and water, celebrated with the people they love most, and filled the property with so much joy from beginning to end.

From the ceremony by the lake to dinner, dancing, laughter, and celebrating together into the night, every part of the day felt meaningful.

We’ve always believed Whiplash is more than a place to stay. It’s a place for people to come together for the moments that matter most, and being trusted with a day this special was truly an honor.

Happy 2nd anniversary, Kayla Patton + Joe Patton 🤎

Thank you for letting Whiplash be part of your story.

Here’s a little look back at one unforgettable day at the lake. 🌲💍
