A true Northwoods getaway is found here on the premier Manitowish Waters chain of lakes! Experience all that North Wisconsin has to offer in this historical hideaway located at the threshold of Wild Rice Lake! The lake is a 379-acre body of water connected to over 4,200 acres of water across the Manitowish Chain, so bring your tackle and enjoy world-class fishing (common species include musky, panfish, largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, northern pike, and walleye). Not into fishing? Keep your power toys at the ready on the property's private dock, or slow it down in the complimentary kayaks and paddleboard provided for your enjoyment. Much of the home's surrounding views are undeveloped, protected forestry land, so uninterrupted nature views are plentiful. Nearby attractions include the island town of Minocqua, historical sites such as Little Bohemia Lodge, and land activities such as golf, cycling, and snowmobiling. With all these amenities available, there's no shortage of fun for the whole family.
Inside, you'll spread out in 5,000 square feet of Northwoods cabin charm with modern amenities throughout. Start the day with coffee in the sunroom or on the private dock, and experience the sunrise reflecting on the lake and peaceful nature sounds. Prepare delicious meals in the exquisite new gourmet kitchen with state-of-the-art Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances. Enjoy dining with 180-degree lake and forestry views in the backdrop in the comfort of the new air-conditioning system. Need to check in at the office? Log on with our state-of-the-art Starlink high-speed, low-latency wifi. Step outside and stroll on the custom deck encircling the entire home, or take the stairs down to the firepit to enjoy some s'mores and ghost stories near the shore! Challenge your loved ones to a little friendly competition on the pool table or belly up to the vintage wet bar with copper countertops. At the end of the day, toss those dirty swimsuits and fishing clothes into the new washer/dryer. And with five newly carpeted bedrooms, there are plenty of cozy places for parents and kids lay their heads at the end of the day to rest up. A baby gate and a Pack' N Play are provided to keep younger guests comfortable and safe.

Family Time
We had a very enjoyable family vacation at this property. We we’re worried the mosquitoes might be bad and fishing off the dock might be tough because of all the weeds and rushes adjacent the property but the mosquitoes were minimal due to spraying and our grandsons loved fishing off the dock. Maybe ce place for all.

Beautiful home
We had a great trip with our group of 3 grandparents, 4 adults, and 3 kids ages 3-7.
Highlights were the gorgeous views of both the lake and marsh area off the kitchen, well appointed kitchen, kayaking right from the home through a small stream, comfortable beds and linens, high quality furniture. The lake is shallow so there aren’t many boats, and a whole side of it is undeveloped protected land. We loved the peace and quiet!
There is no railing going down to the first floor so the older people in our group had to go outside to go downstairs. The A/C and disposal also broke during the stay but the property management company was very responsive.
Overall it was a gorgeous home and wonderful week of memories!

Perfect for large groups with kids!
We loved our stay! We had 12 of our family members staying at this cabin. Everyone had their own space and loved the kitchen! We were right on the water, so lots of fishing and kayaking! Very clean and accommodating. They even had a pack n play already there for the baby we had with us. Such a beautiful place! Highly recommend!

Lots of issues with the place
Hello,
The cabin was beautiful right at the lake and especially the kitchen was so gorgeous but unfortunately , we found so many issues with our stay which has been unprecedented with any of our earlier stays! Here is the list of few of many issues we had. For this high price of the cabin, these issues were the very minimum of expectations..
1. Staircase had a rough sharp edge where the carpet was opening apart from the floor which wounded my kid
2. Several closet doors were completely broken and standing against the wall
3. Bathrooms did not have blinds
4. There was a closet which had a kind of broken flooring that was opening into an electric outlet. Extremely unsafe for kids.
5. Main door was supposed to get auto-locked when closed but that was not working. We had to get a maintenance guy over to get that fixed
6. Kitchen was not stocked properly and didn't even have wine glasses
7. Gas grill was not working and the opening at the bottom of the gas grill was broken too
8. Wifi name listed on the booking was incorrect and we had to juggle back and forth to find the connection
9. Bar was downstairs with no bar fridge. Very inconvenient

This glorious lake front home is on a gorgeous lake with a westerly view. Sunsets are off the charts. Fabulous house with plenty of room and beautifully appointed. The designer kitchen is fabulous.

Beautiful home, fantastic week! Definitely would come back
Be ready to be wowed when you walk into this home!!!
Beautifully renovated. I want to know what kind of carpet and pad they used because it was like walking on a cloud!
The kitchen - by far the best we have ever seen. The new range is fantastic, I felt like a gourmet chef! Kitchen was beautiful, roomy and so well stocked. Loved it.
The living room - very spacious and comfortable seating. Two desks in case you are unfortunate and have to work, but if you do, you are set!
The bedrooms - 5 in total, perfect to spread out. There were 11 of us and we had plenty of space. Beds were comfortable and lots of extra blankets/pillows if needed.
Bathrooms - 3.5 was perfect for a house that size. The double shower in the basement was helpful when everyone was trying to get ready to go out for dinner at the same time.
Basement rec room - pool table was fun, couch super comfy. My nephew actually slept on it to escape a “snorer” in his room and he had no complaints! Only thing missing down there was a mini fridge for the bar area and a TV.
Laundry - awesome washer and dryer. The laundry room was so big I set up a little workout room of my own in there. Talk about a workout with a view!
Outside - just gorgeous. The most beautiful sunsets I have seen “up north”. Great fishing right off the dock. My husband couldn’t fish himself because he was so busy pulling the fish off and re-baiting my daughters hook. I’ve never been in a home so close to the water! So peaceful!!
This home was one of the nicest we have rented in the north woods. Check in was a breeze, and Dan from Vacasa was very responsive and helpful.
Don’t hesitate, just book it. You won’t be disappointed!!!
