Long weekend with friends
Great. House was what was advertised. Great location in downtown Minocqua
We had a very pleasant stay. We had a few hiccups with appliances, but it was quickly rectified. The place is so cute and decorated very nice. Location is everything and this rental is located just off the main street with in walking distance to restaurants and shopping. We had a very pleasant stay and would definitely stay again.

Cozy, quiet, perfect location
We adored our stay at the Catalog Cottage. What a treasure! The view is amazing, and it’s close to everything in town. Just a couple houses off the main drag, I was afraid it might be noisy. But this home has been upgraded to perfection. Very quiet. No boat noise either, to speak of. You can rent a pontoon boat directly across the street. The restaurant ( The Boathouse)there was our favorite, we ate there twice. Chilly day when we arrived, but there’s an electric fireplace in the entertainment center that warmed us up just right. We had perfect weather, the next three days. The ski show is very visible from the amazing front porch, and we enjoyed an antique boat show as well.
Thank you, we loved it!
