Lake cabin family trip

The cabin was spacious and clean. The owner came by and greeted. He was super helpful and polite. The cabin was well stocked with. Hand soap, toiletries, dishwasher detergent…you name it. This was the first VBRO stay I didn’t need to run to the store and get some because the owner kept everything well stocked. The beds were also comfortable and my little children had so much fun. The beach front was great and the docks were perfect for the kids to fish from. He let us use both docks which was great since we had 3 fishing boats. There was electricity down by the pier for charging too! The cabin was also close to fun attractions like mini golf, go karts, and horseback riding. Our stay was perfect and I would definitely stay again at Jim’s hide away.

Great house and beach!

We very much enjoyed our stay - the house was clean, had great access to the water, an awesome beach, the water was about the clearest I've seen. There were very close neighbors which was not a problem, we just prefer being more remote. The proximity to Minocqua couldn't be beat though!

wonderful long weekend with family

Jim’s Hideaway is very well appointed and welcoming to large groups/families. The kitchen has everything you’ll need for ann extended stay and some things you’ll probably realize you didn’t! The property is very spacious and beds very comfortable. We truly appreciated being able to bring our dogs along and allow them to enjoy vacation with us. We were hoping to snowmobile during our stay, but Mother Nature had different plans this winter 🙄 Close to many restaurants and even better supper clubs!

What a fantastic property...

What a fantastic property! Absolutely beautiful and filled with many extra amenities. A lot of nice touches. Fishing was incredible. Caught limit in first two days. Loved hearing the loons on the lake and watching the eagles soar in the sky and dive for fish. We will definitely be back to stay at this paradise. P.S. The best place to sleep is in the sunroom!

Nice stay, tough weather

Property was very nice. Pictures on VRBO were a little deceiving. Maintenance of property. For Northwoods properties, or any properties in rural areas, I think there should be some mention of water quality, for drinking. Had to buy many bottles and gallons for our group!

Perfect extended family vacation

We've stayed at many places up here, but could never find the perfect place that could give us everything we needed and fit our large group. But with Jim's Hideaway we finally found it! Everything was great! House was big, beach was perfect for the kids, and fishing was so much fun! With the paddleboats, canoe, and boat, everyone could get out on the lake. And the owners are so helpful and nice, which makes all the difference. We already can't wait to come back next year. Thanks so much!!

Wonderful beach location

The location is excellent! Kids could run down to the pier to fish, play on the beach, swim to platform and jump off, adults could join them, those who didn't enjoyed being able to see them from the deck. Dock for our boat so going out fishing was so easy, just get in and go. Nice lake, good fishing. House is comfortable, well stocked kitchen including coffee pods for the Keurig, dishwasher soap and soap for washing machine, very generous hosts. Kayaks and peddle boats were fun. It is an older house but still nice.

Amazing week away!!

We would highly recommend Jim's Hideaway. It was a spacious home with lots of amenities. We had 3 families stay there, and everyone had their own space, did not feel cramped at all! Plenty of supplies included. The access to the lake and the bonus items provided made the trip a huge success. I highly recommend renting the boat for a day! Def a highlight of the trip. Owner was easy to work with and communicative. He was amazing! Quick to respond and act on anything we needed! 10/10 would stay there again!

About the host

Hosted by Linda Korsch

Host profile image
Pictured above is a group enjoying the large dining room table in the great room. We try to make this your home away from home.

Why they chose this property

In 2009 Ken and Linda acquired her father's (Jim) home and decided to add this spectacular home to its rental business--Lake Rest Cabins. With each unit having a totally different decor, it made sense to make this available to those who needed more space and wanted more amenities. Jim built this home as his primary residence with his wife Fran in 1982. The magnificent fire place that is the centerpiece of the great room includes bricks from the former Minocqua Community Building which burned down in the 1970's.

As you walk the grounds of the current remaining 10 acres, note the tall pines that were not taken during the logging days of the early 20th century. We work to keep the solitude that is craved at its best while trying to add enough comforts to give every family a memory to be cherished.

What makes this property unique

Many extra amenities such as coffee, coffee filters, hand soap, bath soap, dish and dishwasher soap, laundry detergent, shampoo, toilet paper, paper towels, kleenex, garbage bags.
