About this property

"Like Having Your Own Resort" - Guest Quote

This cabin is the only cabin we rent on the property. You are not sharing docks, frontage, furniture, fire pit, grill, and grounds with other guests.

We have 200 feet of sand frontage that is just a step down of an inch or two from the grass shore. The bottom gently slopes making it great for lounging or children playing.

We have our own boat launch just a few feet from the cabin. No need to put up with crowded and now, expensive boat launches. You have your own dock right in front of the cabin with power for live wells or recharging your trolling motor.

Don’t have a boat? We work with a third party that delivers and picks up your rental boat right at the dock. No need to go to crowded marinas to rent and return a boat.

As more than one guest put it…” location, location, location.” It is beautiful.

Our home is several hundred feet away and as a previous guest wrote…” close enough if there’s a problem, but far enough away to respect our privacy.”

Enjoy the Norhtwoods at a cabin that allows the safety you need and the amenities you want.

If everyone else looses power, your vacation continues with our generator backup. When the power goes out, you still have water, hot water, lights, Internet, TV, stove, microwave, and Air Conditioning. Why cut your vacation short because you have no power. We always have it!

Originally, a restaurant and general store built in the late 1960’s; this building is literally on the water. The original owners rented houseboats until the chain became developed. Waves literally go under the building and afford you your own private dock as well as a private boat launch right on our property. The old kitchen has been converted to consume grade appliances, but is still very large for a small cabin. The old dining room is a combination living, dining, and bedroom that can easily accommodate up to six people in dormitory style sleeping arrangement. You share 200 feet of prime frontage with my my dog and me. We are close enough to assure a trouble free stay, but far enough away to assure your privacy.

We offer a flat screen TV, Wi-Fi with up to 100 mps down and 10 mps up speeds. It also includes free use of a gas grill including gas, your own dock, and use of two more docks for fishing or sunning. Lynx Lake is a quiet lake, but offers access to all 28 lakes on the chain.

We have air-conditioning! And, a new heating system.

Rate assumes you will provide your own sheets & towels. We can provide them for an additional charge. Dogs are allowed for an additional fee depending on the number, size, breed, & age of the dog.

Lynx Lake Cabin
Fabulous view!!! Right on the water with a very nice dock for the pontoon we rented from someone Mark recommended. The cabin is rustic but has everything you might need for an enjoyable week. We slept well on the queen sized Murphy bed - a firm but comfortable mattress. Bring your own sheets, pillows, and towels. The cabin is close to restaurants in Eagle River, and there are several really great options for groceries. Plenty of privacy for that chance to decompress. We didn’t have much luck at fishing, but we didn’t really try very hard either. The geese and deer were regular visitors. Mark is easy to work with and responsive to any questions or needs. If you are looking for luxury, you won’t find that here, but if you are wanting an authentic Northwoods place, check it out.

Lynx Lake Cabin
Outstanding location! Cabin used to be a restaurant. Has an excellent kitchen. Has a private boat launch - I launched a 20' runabout on a dual axle trailer without any problems. The owner has a 25' pontoon he launches there as well. Great private launch. Trailer parking available. Car parking is a snap. It has every convenience. It's like having your own lakefront property. No one there but you, essentially. Owner lives up the hill and is only a phone call away. Very responsive. The cabin is an open floor plan. Two restrooms, one inside and one you enter from the back porch. Both are shower/toilet/sink. One sofa sleeper Q-size, trundle bed, and a Murphy bed. Murphy Q-size bed has a good mattress if you like firm. It was great having our boat tied up outside the cabin. Dock could use some new cleats. Huge windows that open inward, screens good. Capable heater if you're there on a cool evening. Two portable air conditioning units that almost keep up on the worst heat/humidity day(s). Not a big deal but could be better. One more item in need of a change, is the front curtain on the biggest window in the cabin. The morning sun pours right in through that window. That's great and the view is as good as it gets, BUT, the fabric is an off-white or cream colored with white backing and the sun is extremely bright. If it's a humid day the heat generating through that window is quite significant. Our suggestion would be to have a curtain of darker woodland colors in keeping with the rustic nature of the place, with a reflective back. Far too many nice things and conveniences to spend much time on a perceived shortcoming. My wife and I are retired; adult children can visit and come and go as they please. Provides everything you need. Bring your own towels, sheets, pillows. Perfect for us! Big time thumbs up!

Why they chose this property

A true landmark in the greater Eagle River area. It affords a location right on the water. Just can't build them like that now.

Everything you need is right on the property. Boat launch, great swimming, and more. No need to encounter crowds. We even use a third party that delivers and picks up your rental boat right at our dock. No crowded marinas to deal with.

What makes this property unique

Right on the water. Beautiful sunrises and sun sets right our your door.
