Lake View Cabin at Squash Lake Resort
Everything was amazing, thank you!

Lower Buckatabon Lake House | 5 Acre Escape
We greatly enjoyed our stay! It was an up north oasis! The crisp winter air, the pines looking over the frozen lake, the fresh winter snow…perfection! The home was cozy and warm after a day outside. The beds were comfortable and the home was clean. We will be returning for a future weekend away!

Rowyn's Resort - Cabin w/ Hot Tub Lakeside Retreat
Wonderful stay, beautiful property and a great location!

Bolo's Landing on Muskie Lake
What a beautiful cabin on a secluded lake! I timed it perfectly to catch the magnificent foliage in full colour. Brian was incredibly helpful and proactive throughout my stay. Kayaking on the lake was a highlight, especially with a bald eagle soaring overhead for quite a while. The cabin itself was cosy and quick to warm up, making it the perfect retreat. Dawn’s muffins were excellent—highly recommended! Though my stay was brief, it was truly memorable. Thank you!

Catfish Lake @ Eagle River | Northwoods Nirvana!
Scott's cabin is amazing, it's even better than the pictures. He was also very gracious and communicative for everything we needed while we were there. Would absolutely recommend staying here!

We loved our stay at Christina's cottage! It was perfect for two people! We loved how close to the water the cabin was and the cabin had everything we needed for a weekend stay in Eagle River! Highly recommend and we plan to be back next year! Christina was also a great host. She was responsive and very friendly!

Wintergreen Pelican River Retreat #1
It was perfect for our short stay in Rhinelander. Walking distance to all the shops and restaurants. It was wonderful!

Cozy Home (Hurley, WI/Ironwood, MI area)
I was extremely pleased with this place and I felt comfortable there. Slept like a baby. There were a couple things that could be improved: provide some kind of body soap for the shower/master bathroom . Not everyone shows up with a wizened old bar of soap in a plastic bag, like I did! All that was there were half-used bottles of shampoo and conditioner from previous guests. How about a soap dispener? Or hotel-size bar soap? Another thing: the overhead fan/light fixtures in the master bath was missing its cap: bare bulbs and months' worth of dust, hair were visible. This surprised me, because John obviously has an eye for detail. It would be helpful to stack/store dish towels in the kitchen, instead of hidden under bathroom towels in the master bathroom. I was at a loss as to where they were, until I drew down the stack of bathroom towels. I didn't cook anything, but did have cereal bowls, plates, and utensils that I wanted to keep up with over my four-day stay.

Quiet Cute Cozy Home Close to River and ATV Trails
Perfect little house to stay at while visiting my family! Everything I needed for the 2 days I was up north. Very accommodating.

Huge Log Lodge 13br 7ba Big St Germain Lk otd BAR

Eagle River Trailside-On ATV Trail-Near Boatlaunch
Place was clean, easy to find, close to town, and felt like home!

Loon Landing | Priv Lakefront, Kayaks, Dogs ok, AC
We loved our stay at Loon Landing! Plenty of space for 6 adults and 2 dogs. The property was beautiful and private, very well-kept. We loved having access to the paddle boat, canoe, and kayaks! The lake was perfect for swimming (for humans and dogs)! The host thought of EVERY accommodation you would ever need (and more). Shane was sure to check-in frequently and was readily available at all times. 10/10 would recommend this listing to others!

Beautiful, secluded home on 35 acres.
We decided to spend the beginning of our retirement at our favorite place, Riverbend! We brought our labs with us and spent the week doing all of the things that we love! The location is amazing! We fall in love with the views of the river each time! The first day it snowed 5 inches but there was plenty of firewood for that gorgeous fireplace. We thought ahead and brought plenty of food but there's always extra in their cupboards. We used their lovely kitchen each day and grilled most evenings. The pups had plenty of room to roam and we hiked the property each day. They even helped us play cribbage! The Hosts are wonderful and let us know that the Northern Lights would be visible and also warned us of an impending ice storm. They are top notch Hosts and have always treated us amazingly! We also drove around the surrounding areas to visit other towns. oh, and we saw bear tracks a 30 minute walk away! We are counting down the days until we're back at Heavenly Riverbend!

Whispering Pines on Lake Nokomis
The house is beautiful! Great spot on the water. Put corn out for the deer which attracted Blue Jays, squirrels, huge black birds and the deer. The weather didn't cooperate but we managed 10 fish between the three of us. Overall a great place! Sorry we didn't write in the guest book, none of can write better than kindergarteners.

Your guide to Minocqua
Welcome to Minocqua
It takes just one look at a map to understand why they call this region Wisconsin’s Lake Country. In fact, Minocqua is situated on a tiny peninsula jutting into a lake ringed with beautiful boathouses, and you can fish right off the public pier downtown. Minocqua, and the nearby communities of Woodruff and Arbor Vitae, offer an ideal getaway for people who love both summer and winter outdoor activities. Walleye and bass are plentiful in these waters, and there are so many small lakes around that you could find your own, spending the morning with no one but the birds to keep you company. Hundreds of miles of hiking and biking trails wind their way around the lakes, and when the snows descend, the trails are marked with tracks from cross-country skis, snowshoes, and snowmobiles.
The town of Minocqua itself is a charming basecamp, with plenty of shops, breweries, and restaurants to entertain you between adventures. (The Friday night fish fries in this region are legendary.) The 36-foot-tall statue of Paul Bunyan and Babe is not the only remnant of this area’s logging past — lumberjack shows take place in Woodruff all summer.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Minocqua
The population of Minocqua quadruples in summer, which should tell you a little bit about the considerable appeal of Wisconsin’s lake country. All those lakes keep the July and August weather from being oppressively hot, though the weather does tend toward the muggy. (Thanks to the lakes, you’ll also want to bring lots of bug spray.) The fishing season begins in late spring and goes through early fall, when the temperatures dip into chilly territory. October turns the entire countryside brilliant shades of orange and red — perfect for hikes and scenic drives. The snows start in late October and peak in December andJanuary, when the temperature often drops below zero degrees Fahrenheit. But those are also the perfect conditions for activities such as cross-country skiing, snowmobile riding, and the city’s favorite winter sport: snowshoe baseball.
Top things to do in Minocqua
Northern Highland-American Legion State Forest
The Wisconsin state authorities have counted 900 lakes in this 236,000-acre park, located just a few miles from downtown Minocqua. There are plentiful trails for you to meander on, sandy beach spots with picnic areas, and a nature center at Crystal Lake Campground that offers displays and educational talks. You’ll also find dozens of campsites, including a few primitive backcountry spots that require a canoe to get to. Keep in mind that you’ll need a state park admission sticker for your car.
Hanging out in the water
If you aren’t driving to Minocqua with your own boat in tow, never fear: There are a number of rental shops that will hook you up with everything you need to hang out on the water, from tubes and stand-up paddle boards to pontoons for slow cruises. You could set your canoe into the water and spend the day exploring the chain of Minocqua Lakes. Anglers here set their sights on walleye, bigmouth and smallmouth bass, bluegill, and muskie. If you visit in winter, the fishing doesn’t stop — it simply moves onto the ice.
Minocqua Winter Park
This nonprofit hub for snow sports, which combines a municipal park with trails through private lands, is a popular destination for all manner of winter fun. In addition to the 54 miles of trails dedicated to cross-country skiing, you’ll find groomed paths for fat-tire bikes and snowshoes, hills for tubing down, and a lake for ice-skating, as well as fire pits and refreshments.
