Family Friendly - Pontoon Boat Included - Quiet and Private Location

The Cottage

The cottage has 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, a full kitchen, a living room, and a screen porch. One bedroom has a full bed, and the other bedroom has 3 beds (a queen and two twins). There are also two additional twin beds located in the old boat house which has been converted to a bunkhouse. There is a firepit onsite which firewood is provided, as well as a gas grill available for use.

Our cabin is only about 25 feet from the water, giving you a great view of the lake. The setting is very private, as you can not see the neighbors on either side of you due to forests. The water is swimmable with a nice sandy bottom. There are some reeds mid to late summer that surround the dock area.

A 25 Foot Pontoon Boat with 40HP 4-stroke motor docked at the cottage is INCLUDED in rental price. This is a fishing/cruise pontoon and will work well for either purpose.

Columbus Lake is a 600+ Acre lake located in Sugar Camp Wisconsin. The lake has no 'public' access, therefore it does not have heavy fishing pressure or boat traffic like most other lakes. The lake is abundant with walleyes, panfish, perch, northern pike, and muskie. The shoreline is a sandy bottom, with some reeds surrounding the dock located at the cottage. .

***Two Kayaks are now provided at no additional cost***
**There is no public boat landing on this lake. It is typically NOT possible to launch your own boat**
*There is NO internet - cell reception is typically ok depending on carrier.

***Most pets are accepted- There is a $50 per pet fee (for your entire stay, not per night)***

The cottage is heated and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find a TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a fireplace and a coffee maker.

A week to remember!!!!

This was our second stay with the first occurring in October 2022. Uncooperative weather that year caused fishing issues but this year the weather was fantastic and the fishing was fantastic. Caught many fish off the boat but caught the biggest (walleye and perch) right off the pier. The fall colors got better each day during our stay. One minor issue was corrected by Brett and staff within minutes. We will be back next year. One minor suggestion...add non-slip strips in the bath tub as it is slippery and caused fall concerns for our 88-year old mother. Other than that, a great place to stay, relax and enjoy the north woods!!

R & R up north

The place is so quiet, peaceful and clean, also with a good sighting of wildlife like deer, ducks and bald eagles. All in all it's a place that's recommendable to go to if your looking for some privacy and a time to just chill and rest. It's not only me and my wife who enjoyed but I can honestly say our pups enjoyed all the more since they had lots of outdoor activities like long walks, running, play on the water and boating. Shout out to Brett for allowing us to rent his place. Thank you.

Darkest, quietest place on earth

Those should have made for a peaceful relaxing stay but then there was the house - more like a fishing shack with indoor plumbing. Old, worn furniture, horrible mattresses, no place for your clothes or toiletries so you spread them around or lived out of your suitcase. The kitchen was the biggest disappointment however. Paper plates and plastic cups which owner claimed was a covid thing. All cabinets tethered shut so whatever you bought sat on the counters which were minimal at best. One pot, two frying pans and no where to eat except the coffee table. We were there ten days and not one decent nights' sleep. And the softener or water heater goes off nightly at 2:30 AM not weekly as owner claimed. House deserves 2 stars but one more was given for the boat even though it was in serious need of a good cleaning (mold and mildew) and some maintenance (alternator does not work well). Bottom line, the space is horribly overpriced and devoid of any and all welcoming touches VRBO supposedly expects from a host.

Weekend away

Had a good time. Loved the seclusion of the property and the use of the pontoon boat. The boat didn't work when we got there, but owner sent someone immediately. Also, liked that supplied wood for firepit. Negative was beds were extremely uncomfortable and sofa same. Place could have been cleaner. Overall, still had a great time.

Enjoyable Stay

This was the perfect place, to get away from the hustle of everyday life. The property is beautiful. The cozy cabin, just steps away from the beautiful, quiet lake. Everything we needed, for an enjoyable week away. Brett, was kind and helpful with any questions we had. We highly recommend staying here and can't wait to stay again, next year.
