The Perfect Spot for a Girls Getaway

We rented Dollar Lake Retreat to get away with some girlfriends! There were 7 of us and it was the absolute perfect winter spot. We love that the house can be the destination itself, but it's also 5-10 minutes from town with so many things to do. We enjoyed the hot tub, snowshoed around the lake, watched the dear out the window with our morning coffee, played games, cooked good food and enjoyed the beautiful kitchen space and SO much more. The details of this beautiful spot are our favorite part. Angie and Kevin have thought of everything. We cannot recommend Dollar Lake Retreat enough in all seasons!! Seriously, grab your favorite people and book a few nights. You won't regret it!!

Amazing Northwoods Haven!

We LOVED our stay at Dollar Lake Retreat! It's a dream of a home away from home in the North Woods: perfectly cozy AND spacious. We spent lots of time at the big kitchen table playing games and lingering over meals near the fireplace. We loved the vintage decor and all the cozy nooks with cushions, blankets, good books, and chat packs at every turn. The beds were super comfortable, and we really appreciated the cotton sheets. Even the weather was heavenly, with a snowstorm that gave us a thrill both indoors and out. Angie met us on arrival to help carry bags in and tell us about the house, and she kept in touch during our stay to make sure we had all we needed. We would have been happily snowbound, but we were grateful to Angie and Kevin for coming over to shovel and plow. This was our favorite place to stay EVER, and we'll be back! We're already planning to bring our Southern cousins up next winter.

The perfect Wisconsin winter getaway

We absolutely loved our time at Dollar Lake Retreat and will definitely be back. The home is so intentionally designed and thoughtfully stocked. We had everything we could possibly need: chargers, books, games, a fully stocked kitchen, an abundance of cozy blankets, Bluetooth speakers, and even stuffies for the kiddos that they argued over all weekend. I loved the two different fireplaces- one in the main living and one upstairs, which was the perfect place to curl up and slowly wake up in the mornings or wind down at night. The kids loved the loft area, and I loved that there were bedrooms right at the foot of the stairs so I could be close by. The lake views from the main living room and kitchen were unbeatable. The hosts were so hospitable, available if we needed in anything, and met us at check in and gave us the full tour. Everything about the experience felt elevated, which is hard to find in the northwoods. The house was extremely clean and comfortable. It is a great amount of space for multiple families to come together and make memories.

Amazing family vacation venue!

This property is a perfect, large group, gathering place in the North woods! The lake house is very well appointed with everything you can imagine from kitchens appliances and dishes to selves fo games for all ages. The boat house has outdoor games, ping pong and many life vests in every size for people who enjoy kayaking, paddle boarding, floating on available water craft. Beds are very comfortable. The indoor and outdoor lighting is well planned for ambiance and safety. We keep coming back as there really isn't anything comparable!

This cabin was a special experience for our party of 10. We had a sibling reunion and the cabin was exceptional. Very clean, beautiful remodeled kitchen and 3 baths. Great coffee bar and extra fridge for drinks. Beds very comfortable with quality linens and pillows. The decor is a retro modern cabin decor that made it cozy and beautiful. Three gas fireplaces. Property owner great with communication and addressing issues. Had good pizza across the street (Heid’s) and the road outside the property was perfect for morning walks and deer sightings. Honey Bear was a favorite restaurant- good burgers at Smugglers. This was the best rental we have ever had.

Winter Family Getaway

Dollar Lake Retreat was the perfect spot for us to stay for a Christmas week of family fun. The large kitchen with its fireplace and long table was the gathering place every morning and evening for us to share time together. The views of dollar lake were a beautiful and ever changing winter landscape to enjoy. Our hosts took care of everything down to the smallest detail, and even decorated the house with Christmas Trees. We will definitely be back!!

Fall Stay

My girlfriends and I stay in Eagle River every fall. Angie and Kevin’s Dollar Resort so far is out favorite. As moms trying to relax the cleanliness and decor at this resort really made us feel like we were being treated to luxury. Hope to go back next year with better weather conditions to really take advantage of the lake and fire pit area. Lovely place.

Multi family summer vacation

Dollar Lake retreat was perfect for our summer family vacation! Angie and Kevin are super accommodating and make sure you have everything you need to have a fun, relaxing time! The house was very clean and there was plenty of room for our group of 14. We enjoyed the privacy of the lake and were able to catch lots of fish. The availability of the pontoon boat was a nice option as well! Definitely would recommend!

Week of Relaxation

The Dollar Lake Retreat is an amazing Northwoods getaway that gives you all of the traditional Northwoods feels combined with all the modern conveniences of a 5 star cabin. Dollar Lake is a beautiful quiet lake filled with great fishing, swimming, and water sports. The natural woods are filled with deer, birds, and trees that fill the air with fresh pine. This was an unforgettable week for our entire family!

Immaculate home stocked with everything you need for a fabulous stay!

This property is definitely a great choice for your family vacation. We spent the week here in early June. The weather was not great, but there was still plenty to keep us occupied. There is a ton of board games and since there is plenty of room, we weren’t getting in each other’s way. The huge kitchen stocked with every pan, bowl, utensils and small appliance made cooking a breeze. The owners were very accommodating and readily available for anything we needed. The lake is great for fishing both by boat and right off the dock. All in all, we had a wonderful stay!

Cozy & clean cabin retreat

Angie & Kevin have created the ultimate Northwoods getaway. Upon arrival it is notably well cared for and CLEAN. It was easy to relax and feel at home with clean surroundings. The whole cabin was stocked with all amenities we needed and then some (tools for making craft cocktails & fancy coffees for example) The chefs kitchen with large windows to view the lake is a center point of the home where our family enjoyed many laughs around the table and kitchen fireplace. Kevin & Angie worked hard to keep the ice on the lake cleared to create an ice rink. Our family enjoyed skating every day during our stay. The whole cabin is aesthetically pleasing with so much character and high end comforts. Our whole experience was a five star rating and would recommend this cabin to everyone. It’s a private location, but only a short distance to downtown and local restaurants.

Dollar Lake Retreat is a stunning, unique property that is unlike any vacation property.

Not a detail was missed in decorating and preparing this home with care and thoughtfulness. The guest was number one in all of the decisions made. Cleanliness, comfort, views, privacy, and enough cooking and bathroom utensils to make you feel as if you are in your own home. The inside and outside of this property is well lit (when needed). Nothing was missed from easily functioning TV, phone chargers everywhere, (again, if needed). A beautiful outdoor fire pit, along with three i door fireplaces with one in the kitchen, provide a sense of warmth throughout your fall and winter stay. Cant say enough about this property.

Pond Hockey

Angie and Kevin are not only great to work with but also incredibly accommodating throughout the whole process. They are committed to their guest's comfort and amenities while staying at the property. We came as part of the USA Hockey Pond Hockey Tournament and the proximity to the rinks is ideal. We will be returning. House is updated and appointed nicely. I can't say enough good things about the hosts - they even came to the tournament to take pictures. Thank you again and will see you again.

Paradise

If you want the best of the best with the most wonderful caring hosts, this is the place for you. We stayed in December of 2024 and it was cold and icy but... with 3 fireplaces one even in the kitchen we were so comfortable. A great little bar/restaurant just across the street is great and the lakeview even frozen is amazing! In fact, the owners were scraping the lake to make a real ice skating rink for future winter rentals too! It is absolutely perfection, comfortable beds, heaters that actually work in the baths so you won't freeze and a kitchen everyone could only dream of. If you have needs, they are there in a jiffy if you need restaurant or things to do advice too! A big giant tv in the game room and the laundry machines are big and top of the line! We loved out stay here, best rental we've ever rented and again, you could not have better hosts and the place was immaculate! Enjoy! We sure did!

A true Northwoods gem

We enjoyed an amazing winter weekend with some lifelong friends at the Dollar Lake Retreat. We found Angie and Kevin to be gracious hosts who went above and beyond to ensure our stay was both comfortable and enjoyable. Their home is not only tastefully decorated, but wonderfully appointed with no detail missed. It's also spotlessly clean and well stocked. We visited during an exceptionally cold weekend, but we still found plenty to keep us busy - a snowy walk on Dollar Lake Rd, lunch and shopping in downtown Eagle River, dinner at a local supper club, lounging on the sectional watching the Packers game and Yahtzee and cards by the fire. We were so sad to see our stay come to an end - we're already planning our return. Next time we may bring our adult children along - there's plenty of room for all!

Warm memories at Dollar Lake Retreat

Our family travels to the Wisconsin Northwoods every year before school begins. Three families gathered together at Dollar Lake Retreat, and we couldn't have been any happier with our stay. The amount of water sport activities happily left us with no down time. However, when we did have a bit of rain, we had ample games and indoor delights to keep us busy...not t o mention a boat house ping pong table! We gathered around the long, beautiful dinner table on more than 1 occasion to share a meal cooked in the stunning kitchen - boundless amenities included. The hosts were so responsive and accommodating - reiterating the fact that we're on vacation, so no need to worry about anything. It truly was a blissful retreat from start to finish. We'll be returning next August!

Beautiful, functional, and comfy

This property is lovely! Everything was spotlessly clean. The house is very spacious with great views of DollarLake. There’s a really nice pier overlooking the lake where you can sit and watch wildlife or get a great view of sunsets and stars. The shore is sandy, so it would be ideal for swimming. Indoors, the kitchen is stocked with dishes and pans that looked brand new, as did all the appliances. There are several gas fireplaces to add warmth and ambience. The bedding was soft and comfy, that bathrooms were stocked with shower gel and shampoos. The decor is beautiful with warm wood paneling, beautiful wallpapers, and great artwork throughout the house. It’s almost impossible to describe all the amenities and fine touches that the hosts have provided. If you have a chance to stay here, do it!
