Beautiful getaway

We took advantage of the beautiful fall weather and colors by staying in this beautiful cabin on Lucy Lake. The property was ideal - private, quiet and comfortable with lake access and beautiful scenery. We played games in the cabin, visited the casino, and had some great meals in the area. I also caught numerous bluegills from the pier. Thank you, Kellers, for sharing your home with us!

Great view on a quiet lake

We enjoyed swimming right off the dock and kayaking around the small lake. The little pontoon boat was a fun way to see the lake too. The breeze up the hill kept mosquitos away, even on the back deck and hammocks. Inside the house, there was plenty of space to read, watch a movie and play games. It's a beautiful place!

Wonderful Getaway

This is our third summer staying at Tom’s cabin. It is a little slice of heaven. We had great weather. The kids fished every day and enjoyed the water. This cabin is a great chance for us to connect as a family and enjoy the North Woods!

The property at Lucy lake was exactly as described in the overview. The view of the lake was perfect

We had a wonderful experience staying at this cozy lake property. We came with our daughter's family. Our two grandkids really enjoyed themselves. My granddaughter's name is on the bench outside. She was thrilled by that. The fishing was awesome,right off the pier. We used most of the water toys. We really loved the electric pontoon boat. Nothing fancy but we had a ball with it! The house had everything we needed and more. Thank you Tom and Rachel for sharing this beautiful home with us.

Peaceful retreat

My family of 6, (4 adults,2 children) had an amazing stay here. First of all- the pictures do not do it justice! The timber truss ceilings were gorgeous!! Over the living room was a canoe! We all fit perfectly, my boys fought each night who would stay in the loft. Foosball tournaments were played- my 12 year old won! We all watched a movie in the big living room. Had a lot of laughs & made memories at the dinner table. The cabin had everything we needed. We fished, kayaked & used the boat. Had a Bald Eagle as a visitor one day. We went out for dinner one night to the Thirsty Whale & caught the Min-aqua bat show! Very impressive. Cute shops downtown. Loved Minocqua!

Fantastic!

I apologize for taking so long to write my review. We stayed at the "Little piece of heaven" during a cold spell at the beginning of the year. During the day, we braved the subzero temps at Winterpark, a short ride away. After our ski trips we defrosted in this amazing house/cabin. Everything was perfect: a warm cabin greeted us when we arrived in the dark, a warm fireplace made the Northwoods feel complete, the Wii entertained the teenagers, one who chose the loft to sleep in. The house became home in an instant, but nothing can beat the view, the canoe in the living room, the location and the amazingly rich and touching family history preserved at the cabin. We felt so lucky to have a chance to stay there! Thank you Tom for accepting our last minute booking and communicating so personable. Even though we would love to visit in the summer, we usually head up to Wisconsin in the winter. Hopefully, we can return to this priceless place.

Amazing Lake House/Family Vacation

My bother’s family and mine loved this location and strongly recommend it if you’re looking for a family location on a lake. It has everything you need for a week on the lake, our children swam and fished off of the dock. We also used the kayaks, canoe, and little boat. The owners were extremely responsive and helpful.

Perfect for this summer's getaway!

We were looking for a restorative week away and Tom's cottage was the perfect, peaceful location. The outdoors provided many different opportunities, all with wonderful views! The water was clear and great for swimming off the dock. We recommend starting the day watching and listening to the loons. Many naps were taken in the hammock and lots of conversation took place on the deck. Inside, there were spacious common areas and many amenities - the beds were comfortable and the shower hot. We loved the seclusion, yet it is only about 15 minutes to town. Highly recommend!

Wonderful winter stay in Minocqua

WE had a great weekend. The house is cozy and warm, and well-situated to either hole up and enjoy the quiet or cruise into town for some fun. Also nicely situated near Minocqua Winter Park. Tom was fantastic too - extremely responsive and accommodating. We'll be back.

Perfect!

The VRBO description "little piece of heaven" is exactly what it is. My family enjoyed staying there so much. The house is beautiful and the owners are incredibly thoughtful. Everything you could possibly need is there....life jackets, kayak, pontoon, row boat, fire pit. Such a quiet, beautiful lake and home. Great location too! Gas station/store/bait just 5 minutes away and just a bit further into town and hiking trails. We can't wait to come back!!!

Beautiful property on quiet private lake. Lovely cabin with room for family to spread out.

We have spent time in several different t rentals in the northwoods but this piece of property and cabin truly surpassed anything we have stayed at. We could not have had a more perfect vacation at Tom’s beautiful property. Adults and children spent hours in the refreshing and peaceful lake floating, swimming, kayaking each day. Fishing off the dock was a favorite for the kids. Tom left everything we could possibly need ready for us, including fishing poles with hooks and bobbers all set! The privacy of the lake with no public access makes it serene. I put a life jacket on (plenty provided!) and would float in the middle of the lake watching nothing but the blue sky and the beauty of the water and shoreline. Beds were so comfortable, only the aroma of hot coffee made by the early risers woke me up in the morning. Lots of card games on the deck, campfires at night, movie nights using our Netflix and amazon accounts on the Smart TV, steaks on the grill, soaking up sun on the dock, reading and sleeping in hammocks. We stayed one week and no one wanted to leave. We will repeat this vacation every year as long as Tom will continue to have us!

About the host

Hosted by Tom Keller

Hi I'm Tom! I am married and have 3 beautiful children. I am one lucky guy for sure! Keller's Cottage has been in the family for over 35yrs and has been handed down to me recently. I am fortunate enough to have many great memories growing up here. We have decide to share our little piece of heaven on occasion to help pay for taxes and upkeep. It is cozy, well kept and our pride and joy! It is not a party cabin by any means but a perfect place for families to enjoy some time together. Please keep this in mind while deciding if this is the right fit for you. Thanks for looking everyone!

Why they chose this property

Keller's Cottage has been in the family for over 35yrs. I grew up here and have many great memories as a child. I caught my biggest pan fish, biggest northern and biggest bass ever in Lucy Lake! I have countless hours of fishing and exploring time on the lake and now my kids are doing the same. How awesome is that! It was truly a wonderful place to grow up on and now we are sharing it with you!

What makes this property unique

Private no wake lake. None of the loud craziness of speeding motor boats or jet skis. This is a place to relax, fish and enjoy all the beauty nature has to offer, without worrying about being run over. Hear and see the eagles, loons, and beavers in the summer and deer in the winter. Very peaceful and tranquil place for sure!
