About this property

Lakeside Cottage in the Pines with Huge Deck, 40-foot Dock, and Sunset Views

Summer 2025 is booked except the nights of May 24-30 and some fall weeks. Minimum stay 7 nights,

Four Sisters Point nestles on a point on Lake Katherine, a clear, quiet, 600-acre lake in the North Woods of Wisconsin. Lake Katherine ("the Jewel of the North Woods") offers the best in fishing and water sports as well as a quiet serenity unique in the popular Minocqua area.

From the guestbook: "Beautiful lakefront cabin that provides a relaxing retreat from the world. Listen for the loons, enjoy amazing sunsets. Pet- friendly. We look forward eagerly to our next visit!" --Chris J., 2024

The cottage commands a special spot on this pristine, clear lake. Sitting atop a small hill on the edge of a peninsula with the lake wrapping around it, it boasts a lake view from the deck and from every room (Well, not the bathrooms...)

Four Sisters point has a 40-foot pier in a quiet bay. With 400 feet of private shoreline, a private sandy beach, and three acres of private pine woods, there is much to explore. Fishing, water-skiing, swimming, and boating await sports-lovers. Nearby Minocqua has lively shopping, dining and entertainment. For a rainy day, there is a big stone fireplace, a TV with streaming and one with DVD/VCR, a small library, a collection of games, and WIFI.

From the guestbook: "Summer in northern Wisconsin in a cozy log cabin--perfect! Memories to keep a lifetime. The history on its walls give it its own life. The woods, the wildlife, the lake around it--if you're looking to relax, reset, and remove yourself from a hurried life, I can't imagine a better place. Just beautiful! We'll come back every chance we get!" --Tony D., 2024

This is a great place to get away in the spring and fall, as well as summer. The sound of the loons, a cozy fireplace, beautiful views of spring or summer foliage all await you for a romantic getaway, a fishing break, or a secluded retreat. Spring and fall also offer a great value over the higher-priced summer months.

For those who love to fish, Lake Katherine's 600 acres have a maximum depth of 30 feet. Visitors can bring their boats in from a public boat landing or use our rowboat to fish for muskie, panfish, largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, and walleye. You can fish from the dock as well.

From the guestbook: "Sitting on the dock watching amazing sunsets, hearing the shrill of a bald eagle, reading while rocking on the deck glider, stories, music, and laughter around the fire, the midnight loon choir. Magic." Carol D., 2024

From the guestbook: "Lying on the expansive deck listening to the loons and watching the chipmunks and eagles--life just doesn't get any better." --Sharon L., 2024

We hope you'll visit and become part of our Four Sisters Point family!

About the host

Hosted by Mary Cole

Host profile image
My grandfather first purchased this prime acreage on beautiful Lake Katherine in 1912. Since then, the cottage has grown from little more than a lean-to to the warm 4-bedroom, 2-bath retreat it is now. It's a great place to get together with other family members to share time and memories, and to keep old and make new traditions. You'll find historical photos and books, as well as carefully curated decor in keeping with the deep history and authentic nature of this special place.

Our family has been coming to this place since 1912. While my grandfather was living, we came up early every summer, and my father spent his 'vacation' making sure the place was ready for Granddad's summer there--woodpile full, maintenance done, etc. The hours after supper were spent singing to the tune of our Dad's old ukulele and playing cribbage with Granddad.

We are fortunate in having a "family" of repeat renters who come year after year and treat this special place as their own. We're always looking for new "Four Sisters Point Family" members who seek an exceptional, unique place to claim as their home away from home.

Why they chose this property

My grandfather was among the first to choose a spot on this wonderful, quiet lake, so our cottage is placed on a highly desirable spot on a point, where it commands lake views on three sides.

A lazy drive down the winding "woodsy road" (South Shore Drive) puts you well in the embrace of the pine woods and the lake and ready for relaxation and adventure. No other cottages can be seen from Four Sisters Point, although neighbors are only a few hundred yards away.

Our family has been coming to this enchanted place since 1912. While my grandfather was living, we came up early every summer, and my father spent his 'vacation' making sure the place was ready for Granddad's summer there--woodpile full, maintenance done, etc. The hours after supper were spent singing to the tune of our Dad's old ukulele and playing cribbage with Granddad.

What makes this property unique

It is easy to spend the whole time here listening to the loons, watching the chipmunks, looking for eagles, swimming, and puttering around. Going into Hazelhurst or Minocqua, both less than 10 minutes away, is fun, and there are also lots of other things to do in the area, but the chance to slow down enough to listen to the wind in the pines, watch the lake sparkle in late afternoon, and admire the sunset until its last rays disappear over the lake is the best. You won't find a vacation home with more history, more enchantment, more true North Woods feel than Four Sisters Point.
