Little piece of heaven

Our stay at the cottage was very nice! We enjoyed access to the brand new pier, fire pit every night and the amenities in the cottage. It was a little confusing on which building we were actually renting when we arrived. But Peggy was amazing and so accommodating. She was very responsive and we were sad to go.

family getaway

This place was a great place to stay, but there wasn't too much of a lake view. We were able to see a bit of the lake from the kitchen, but that's it and it didn't stop us from enjoying ourselves. There was a great swimming area at the south end of the lake where we anchored our boat and the kids loved it. Also, plenty of space for water sports on the lake. Fishing was ok, but the weather was cool, rainy, and windy during our stay at the cabin. Overall, we all enjoyed our time at this place.

Great Fishing Get Away Spot

We absolutely enjoyed this place. Myself and two buddies stayed her as home base and fished Lake Metonga, Pelican Lake and Boom Lake. Being able to just doc the boat and walk up to the cabin when fishing Metonga was awesome. The accommodations were very nice. We were impressed with the quality of the entire place from the decor and comfort inside to the round about driveway that circled the cabin for easy entry and exit with our boat. This is a top of the class cabin getaway. High Fives all Around. Highly Recommend.

Fabulous Cabin!

We loved our week at this cabin on Lake Metonga in Crandon! It is a beautiful place - VERY clean, new, decorated so cute, and so comfy! Our family felt it was a great space for us. Great amenities (nice beds, tons of space, clean and comfortable (furniture and beds, etc...) We would recommend this place to anyone! We truly appreciate the timely response from the owner (Peggy) with any questions we had. The only downfall is having a house between us and the lake but it totally worked out fine and we were able to access the water and dock easily and still had a view of the lake. We hope to be back soon! Thank you!

Charming Cabin

Stayed with Peggy for a work trip. We were the first visitors of the season so there were some very minor glitches (like resetting wifi router) and Peggy was super responsive and fixed it right away. Great little kitchen with 2 fridges, coffee station, great bedding, plenty of blankets and towels, AC kept us nice and cool, Smart TV with all the apps. Quality new couches and chairs with recliners, heat/massage! Can't say enough good things about her place. At checkout she was very interested to get our feedback and make any improvements for the future. I already have this place booked again this summer and look forward to staying with Peggy every summer!

Disappointed with the accuracy of the listing

The cottage was very clean, newly remodeled, and very beautiful! We made the best of it and enjoyed our stay. The reason for the 3 star rating is we were very disappointed with the description of the property at the time of booking and would not have booked our stay had we known that there is another house directly between the cabin and lake. I think it needs to be said so others do not make the same mistake we did depending on what they are looking for. I would not consider this a cottage on the lake, it is a cottage with a pier and lake access, but the owner’s cabin is between this cabin and the lake. The advertised deck with lake views only has a lake view from one corner of the deck, the majority of the deck is blocked by the owners cabin, that is roughly 20 ft away and directly in between the deck and the cabin, as well as surrounded by the owners driveway, and they will and their guest will park their vehicles directly next to the deck. Additionally the ceiling in both main floor bedrooms is wide open to each bedroom, as well as the living room and kitchen (the wall separates the rooms but do not go all the way to the ceiling) this may be fine for some, but if you are planning on traveling with children who go to bed early, it may not be ideal to hang out in the living room and kitchen while they are sleeping. If these things that are not advertised in the listing do not bother you, it is an overall great place to stay!

Awesome cabin!

Easy to rent process. Suggestion would be to provide a map of the property and features so we know where to go. We didn’t know exactly where to park and where our fire pit was or which pier we could fish from. We didn’t want to bother the owner but we know she would have helped us. This is NOT AT ALL a complaint but only a suggestion

Great little cabin

This cabin was beautiful. It was situated in an easy to find location. It was super clean, great furniture, plenty of room, recently renovated, every amenity we could need and much much more. The owners were very good at communicating and obviously put a lot of effort into their cabin. If I had to find anything to fault it would only be that there are no blinds or curtains in the main room which meant a little less privacy when leaving the shower to the bedrooms. But no one was ever present outside of the cabin so not a big deal. Overall I highly recommend this cabin

Fun on the lake

My family and I had a wonderful time in Crandon and on Lake Metonga. The cabin was exactly as described and fully stocked. All we needed was food. It was extremely clean. Peggy and her family were terrific hosts. The beautiful lake was a short walk down a hill. The water was clear and clean. There were rocks in the water around the dock but the city beach and boat launch is a few blocks from the cabin. We still swam off the dock and caught fish right off the dock. We enjoyed riding our bikes around Crandon seeing the shops and visiting the deer. This was definitely a relaxing and enjoyable stay.

Great cabin on a Beautiful Lake

The cabin is beautiful, brand new and very well done. Lake Metonga is a very clean large lake that you can swim off the pier ( about 4 feet deep), bring your water shoes though because the rocks on bottom are slimy. Crandon is also nice, a typical small lake town for WI. I knocked one star off accuracy of listing because this cabin does not sit directly on the lake, it sits directly behind a large house. True, you can see the lake from the window and front porch, but mostly you see the house. The house was vacant while we were there and we were given full permission to enjoy the beautiful patio with an outstanding view of the lake, but if the owners were home, it might not have been as relaxing. Also know that the wall that separates the two bedrooms is not a complete wall, it is open on the top, so privacy and noise are factors to consider.

About the host

Hosted by Peggy Houle

We live in Crandon and decided to try a VRBO 3 years ago. Each year we have made improvements and this year we have added a brand new aluiminum pier. The cabin is cozy and comfortable with the basement completely finished so we now have room for 6 with 2 full baths. We have received excellent reviews from our guests and look forward to meeting new ones this summer.

Why they chose this property

It is located on a 2000 acre full recreational lake (Lake Metonga) in a small community near the public boat landing and within walking-biking distance of local shops and trails that are open to the public. Our rates are affordable and we strive to keep it clean and sanitary each week between guests. Our location is private and convenient to the local amenities offered in this community.

What makes this property unique

Cozy cabin most suitable for a small group of up to 6 with open concept living areas & a full kitchen with the island bar having a great view of Lake Metonga. Quiet dead-end street for minimal traffic ; easy bike and boat access to the cabin for those who get out and enjoy the lake or just like to explore the area.
