Ice fishing

Real fireplace is a nice touch. Plenty of firewood, would’ve liked the steps shoveled but it had just snowed when we arrived

Beautiful lake home!

We just had a fantastic 4 day stay. Super clean and pretty home right on the lake. Very close to Minocqua so we had plenty of activity options and places to eat close by. Additionally, communication with the host was the best we’ve ever experienced staying at a rental property. Will definitely come back again!

Great holiday weekend with family.

We rented the cabin with our 4 teenagers and had a great time. We also rented the pontoon which was an awesome addition to our trip. The kids had a great time fishing, kayaking and paddle boarding. The house was very clean and had every thing that you would need for you stay. I would definitely recommend this cabin to any future family looking for a nice place to stay. Great location and only 10 min. to Minocqua. Also, owner was very responsive and great to work with.
