About this property

Stunning views and fun at brand new home on Eagle River Chain Catfish Lake.

Our brand new Sunset Hill lake house sits on a small hill on Catfish Lake, part of a chain of 28 connected lakes. It has great lake access and stunning sunsets. Sunset Hill has 5+ bedrooms, office/loft with 2 twin beds, 3 bathrooms, large deck overlooking the lake, a large screened 3 season porch for meals or just sitting, a large family room with a walkout patio and an outdoor fire pit in a beautiful setting. The property sits on hundreds of feet of lakefront with a sandy lake bottom - perfect for a swim or kayaking. Sunset Hill has a large dock that can accommodate multiple boats. In the summer, you can fish, watch the activity on the lake from our dock and benches, take your boat to local restaurants for dinner, or go into town for ice cream. In the winter, you can ice fish on the lake or enjoy local snowmobiling and cross-country trails. The owner has additional properties on the 10+ acres with similar amenities: Catfish Lake House (VRBO #471857) and Meta Lake house VRBO#1194420

Beautiful house and views!

We loved our stay at Sunset Hill. Beautiful home with clean, modern amenities that is a very short drive into downtown Eagle River (shops, grocery store, etc.). We’d love to stay again!

Incredible!

This property hit all the marks. Location, description, and cleanliness are spot on: prime and luxurious. Kristi was incredible in communication. Not only was check-in easy and accurate but when there was an internet outage, I was notified. Above and beyond what I'm used to. My family couldn't ask for more. Looking forward to booking again next year!

Beautiful retreat

The place was just as described with plenty of space. Love the screen porch! Comfy beds and furniture. Loved listening to the loons on the large deck at night. This place sits on a hill with stairs down to the dock where you can fish, kayak or have two boats. Very nice place! We will be back. If you have any mobility issues you may have issues getting to the dock because there are quite a few stairs but was fine for us. Kristi was great at responding and I enjoyed reading their family story.

Great family home

This property was excellent for our family. Our two adult children and their family basically had “their own” bedroom/bath area and so did my husband and me. Excellent facility and owners. They were very responsive to all my questions. All around super vacation had by all!

Fishing weekend

The house and property were perfect for our annual get together with college friends. The house is beautiful and had everything we needed. The kitchen has everything we needed to prepare meals. We had plenty of beds for the whole crew. And the view from the deck is amazing, overlooking Catfish Lake.

It’s what being on vacation is all about

We had family members staying with us and the week in Eagle River was fun filled and fantastic! The accommodations were more than ample for sleeping and day time activities. The lake is beautiful and the sunsets and stars were breath-taking.. The home is gem with ample space for vehicles and a full lakeside deck to soak up the scenery and the wildlife. Can’t wait until next time.

Amazing Property

Beautiful well appointed home. We have stayed at various locations in Eagle River and this home has become our favorite. The house sits on top of a hill affording beautiful views of Catfish Lake along with amazing sunsets. The location is extremely quiet. We were able to hear the loons every morning and evening. The home and property are immaculately maintained. We found the owners, Kristi and Tim very responsive. I highly recommend this property.

This is the second Maximoff property we have rented in Eagle River, and both are on pristine locations (great fishing lake a bonus) and with extremely clean and modern accommodations. The owners are particularly prompt and helpful with their responses to questions and issues. Would highly recommend this listing.

Family Getaway

This was our first trip to Eagle River. We had two families (11 people total) staying at the house. We found the house to be plenty big, room and privacy for everyone. Watching sunsets off of the back deck were awesome. Everyone commented how clean the home was inside, and even all the linens smelled good/clean. The house location on the chain of lakes was great. Easy boat ride to the sandbar on Catfish lake and accessing all the other lakes. We definitely would recommend this place to others.

Hidden Gem

This property was absolutely amazing! It had everything we needed. The split floor plan allowed all our guests to have a private space. The views were absolutely breathtaking, and we enjoyed many sunsets on the deck. We spent a lot of time out in the water on the pontoon boat we rented at the marina nearby. The house also had paddle boards and kayaks. Would definitely recommend!

Amazing family vacation

This property is beautiful and the perfect setting for our family’s celebration. Close to town but private setting on a beautiful lake. The house was large enough for 10 adults and 4 kids.

Fall Get Away

This property lived up to other reviews and photos. We have been renting homes on Catfish, Cranberry, or Yellow Birch for past 15 years. This was by far the best accommodations of all the houses we stayed. The beds were very comfortable, the kitchen was well stocked, great knives, 2 types of coffee pots, tea kettle, plenty of pots and pans. Firewood available on site for purchase. We have no complaints!

About the host

Hosted by Kristi Maximoff

Host profile image
The owner family has been coming to this property for 4 generations and welcome visitors to their Sunset Hill House.

Why they chose this property

The property is designed for enjoying all aspects of the North Woods: The Chain of Lakes, the nearby forest, the ducks, eagles, loons, fishing, boating, or just sitting in peace. The land has been in the owners family for over 100 years, starting with a small cottage built in 1904. The sunset hill house was built to take advantage of the stunning sunsets and views of the lake and the joy of the summer breeze. The newly constructed house is the only the second building added in over 100 years. See the Catfish Lake House (VRBO Listing #471857) for our first guest house and reviews. We welcome you to share in our tradition!

What makes this property unique

Sunset Hill Lake House is a new house with totally modern amenities and accommodations, along with stunning views (and unmatched sunsets). The property sits on a long untouched shoreline of Catfish Lake, the most desirable lake in the North Woods. At the lake, you will find a large dock with a swim ladder, sandy lake bottom and benches to sit in the middle of all the fun. Most days you can catch frequent sightings (from the house and the dock) of our resident loon, eagles, osprey and ducks. In the evening, relax on our decks or watch the game in the large living room or family room. At the end of the day, watch the sunset while enjoying s'mores by the fire pit.
