Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2005
Pat & Laura Koppa live in the Milwaukee area with their 4 children.
Pat has been coming to Dam Lake since childhood (over 35 years) and Laura joined him when they started dating over 25 years ago.
They purchased their cabin in 2005 in order to have a place to spend more quality time with their kids and create lifelong memories with family and friends. It has certainly provided that!
They are happy to provide the same experience for you and your friends and family.
Enjoy Dam Lake and all it's relaxing beauty!
Why the Owner Chose Eagle River
The North Woods are our favorite place on earth, and Dam Lake is truly a special lake, with beautiful shorlines and varying bays and places to go. Yet, it is between populated areas so never gets crowded. It is one of the best-kept secrets in the North Woods.
The Unique Benefits of this Cabin
The beach. Actually very rare on North Woods lakes, it is a true beach that is great for kids and adults and the swim area is private and pleasant, free of any concentrated weed beds.
The cabin is comfortable and spacious. It's meant to be a traditional, northwoods 'cabin' designed to take your mind away from hectic daily life. It's intended to feel relaxing and pleasant, but not stuffy or perfect. It's a place to enjoy the lake and walk inside in your swimsuit and not be worried. It's meant to provide a relaxed setting for quality time with the people you care about.

Eagle Pines Cabin - Pure Essence of a Vacation Experience
Guest: James
(Eagle, CO)
Date of Stay: 06/10/11
Review Submitted: 09/10/11
We arrived 7/10/11 and instantly fell in love with Eagle Pines Cabin. The long driveway through the woods led us up to the cabin nestled in tall pines overlooking Dam Lake. The views were simply stunning. The cabin itself is cozy and inviting. It has everything you need for a terrific stay including unbelievable views from the living room, kitchen, and wrap around deck. We saw four Bald Eagles fishing overhead almost every day. And best of all, as secluded and private in the north woods as it feels, it is a ten minute drive to to St. Germain for all your food and equipment supplies (and GREAT baked goodies). Dam lake is pristine and exquisite. Be sure to venture to the other lakes on the chain. That exploration offers up pur magic! We spent many hours sitting on the pier listening to the loons or by a warm fire on the shore at night toasting marshmellows and sharing stories. You MUST go to Pub n Prime in St. Germain for the very best prime rib you will ever put in your mouth! It simply melts; fork only - no knife required. Our only regret is that we did not book Eagle Pines Cabin for two weeks or better still, an entire month. Thanks Pat, for a memorable vacation experience!
Owner response:This review was especially rewarding to receive. James and his wife had met in the north woods of Wisconsin many years ago and had subsequently moved to Colorado. They wanted to return to Wisconsin with their young kids for the first time to let them experience and fall in love with "up north" like he had in his childhood. It's wonderful to see that some things never change! Best wishes, Pat & Laura Koppa, owners

Just got back from our family vacation at Koppa's Eagle Pine cabin on Dam Lake. What a comfortable and lovely home to spend time at. The view of the lake is so beautiful and peaceful. The kids loved the private beach, swim raft, kayaking, canoeing, and tubing. The fire pit is an awesome place to roast mello's and have s'mores. Whether you have rain or shine, Eagle Pines is a wonderful place to get away, relax and unwind. From our family to yours.. thanks Koppa's!

The week was everything we expected and more. The water was clean and refreshing for all us swimmers. The kids LOVED the boats and the raft. The kayaks were a favorite for our 9 year old and 13 year old. We had wonderful weather and spent lots of time in the water. The beach was a bonus for our little 4 year old. This was a wonderful week for our family to play games, have bon fires and enjoy the water. It is just as described!!! Thank you so much for opening your home and sharing with us... It was great!!!!

My fiance and I rented Eagle Pines as an opportunity to bring together as many of our 6 young adult children and their partners as could make the trip. We had folks coming and going all week, but everyone had a wonderful experience. As soon as you walk through the door and see the beautiful view of the lake, you know you've made a good choice. Dam Lake is a beautiful lake with some spectacular homes, several families of loons and loads of Bald Eagles cruising about, but very little boat traffic. We rented a pontoon boat for the week and spent many hours cruising both Dam and Sand Lakes. Having the kayaks and canoe was a great addition. The beach at Eagle Pines is beautiful and would be great for young children. We found the cabin to be very clean and well set up for any size group. Ed the caretaker made sure we had everything we needed and was easily available if necessary. I know Pat and Laura have put many hours of labor into the property to make it as nice as can be and it really shows. We highly recommend this property and know that you will enjoy it as much as we did.

Thank you so much! It was a blast. We had such a nice winter weekend. The place was great for both our kids (1 and 4) and our folks. The minute you enter you feel at home. The place is comfortable and warm and has all the amenities you need. The views are marvelous and the sunrises are astonishing. It is a true house in the woods and on the lake. We enjoyed walking on the lake, sledding down the hill, cross country skiing on the path, and taking the car for a short drive to Eagle River or St. Germaine. We can't imagine anything better than this. Thank you so much for a great northern-woods experience.

Eagle Pines Cabin was a wonderful place to stay and exceeded our expectations. The Koppas' were very helpful with assisting us in planning our fishing trip, giving us an abundance of information on fishing in the area and fishing guides, and replying to our numerous e-mails! We would definitely love to stay at Eagle Pines Cabin again!

It was wonderful to see the old Vos house in such wonderful condition and to read how the lake still works its magic on those who need to relax and appreciate the quiet of Dam Lake. I hope everyone, and I'm sure they will, enjoy every minute they spend on Dam Lake. This is the best lake in the area. Our family still has their home after 40 years down the road and every generation is thrilled to spend time there.

The cabin was everything the website says it was. Decorated beautifully and extremely cozy. We utilized the kayaks, paddleboats, life jackets, etc. as the water is just steps away and just amazing. You can hear the loons from the bedroom and the place has the friendliest little chipmunk that looks in your window from time to time and greets you when you leave and come back to the cabin. The owners are amazing people and I would return to this cabin without thinking twice. We loved it!
