Quiet lakeside retreat

Nice space. With 4 adults having 3 br and 3 baths let everyone have some privacy. Beautiful views of the lake from the house. Good parking. Wish we'd had more time to enjoy it more.

Another Fantastic Cross Country Ski Weekend

The house was perfect for two families of four on our annual ski trip. Minocqua Winter Park was an easy 10 minute drive. The house had communal space for everyone and separate spaces for the kids and grownups to have their own time. The sauna was great after long ski days and the foosball table got some use. We would happily stay here again.

On the lake

We were very happy with our rental. It was exactly as photos online. Very clean and a great place to stay. Only minus was walking down to the lake for people over 70. However, it was rainy and not an issue. Fun!

Ski Weekend without Snow

This cabin is in a great location for cross-country skiers looking to ski at Minocqua Winter Park or any of the other local ski areas. It is also an easy drive to Minocqua. The property is clean and well-maintained. Our children loved the downstairs with the foosball table and the giant TV. It allowed them to escape the adults quite easily and have their own party.
