We enjoyed our stay overall and found that the house was as described. The property was comfortable and met our expectations. However, we felt that the pet fee was quite high and not reasonable. We also found the checkout cleaning requirements to be excessive, including tasks such as washing the windows and vacuuming. Given the significant cleaning/maid fee we had already paid, we did not feel guests should be responsible for such an extensive list of cleaning tasks. Overall, we had a pleasant stay but would suggest a more reasonable pet fee and check out process for future guests.

Fall Get Away

This property lived up to other reviews and photos. We have been renting homes on Catfish, Cranberry, or Yellow Birch for past 15 years. This was by far the best accommodations of all the houses we stayed. The beds were very comfortable, the kitchen was well stocked, great knives, 2 types of coffee pots, tea kettle, plenty of pots and pans. Firewood available on site for purchase. We have no complaints!

Incredible!

This property hit all the marks. Location, description, and cleanliness are spot on: prime and luxurious. Kristi was incredible in communication. Not only was check-in easy and accurate but when there was an internet outage, I was notified. Above and beyond what I'm used to. My family couldn't ask for more. Looking forward to booking again next year!

Beautiful retreat

The place was just as described with plenty of space. Love the screen porch! Comfy beds and furniture. Loved listening to the loons on the large deck at night. This place sits on a hill with stairs down to the dock where you can fish, kayak or have two boats. Very nice place! We will be back. If you have any mobility issues you may have issues getting to the dock because there are quite a few stairs but was fine for us. Kristi was great at responding and I enjoyed reading their family story.

Creating Memories: Our Perfect Family Getaway

From the moment we arrived, we were struck by the beautiful property and its surrounding lake. The area was meticulously maintained, providing a clean and inviting environment for our family to relax and enjoy.The spacious layout of the home was ideal for our family, allowing everyone to have their own space while still coming together for meals and activities. The location was excellent, offering both tranquility and easy access to nearby attractions, making it perfect for our summer getaway. One of the highlights of our stay was the private dock, which provided us with direct access to the lake. We spent countless hours fishing, boating, swimming, kayaking, and simply enjoying the beauty of the lake and surrounding area.Our host was incredibly attentive and responsive, quickly assisting us with any information or needs that arose during our stay. This level of service enhanced our experience and made us feel truly taken care of. Overall, our time at Eagle River was a wonderful experience, filled with family bonding and unforgettable memories. We couldn't have asked for a better place to spend our summer vacation together.

Beautiful property with plenty of room. The kitchen appliances seem brand new. There is ample seating both inside and outside and the view of Catfish lake is perfect.Although the house is in a steep hill, the owners did a very nice job in making the walk up and down easy by creating a zigzagging walkway.Our only complaint was that it was difficult to walk directly into the lake because of the steep drop off at the very bottom, so the pups couldn’t get in and out without assistance. Thank goodness we were able to do that as the water was perfect!

This property was excellent for our family. Our two adult children and their family basically had “their own” bedroom/bath area and so did my husband and me. Excellent facility and owners. They were very responsive to all my questions. All around super vacation had by all!

Fishing weekend

The house and property were perfect for our annual get together with college friends. The house is beautiful and had everything we needed. The kitchen has everything we needed to prepare meals. We had plenty of beds for the whole crew. And the view from the deck is amazing, overlooking Catfish Lake.

It’s what being on vacation is all about

We had family members staying with us and the week in Eagle River was fun filled and fantastic! The accommodations were more than ample for sleeping and day time activities. The lake is beautiful and the sunsets and stars were breath-taking.. The home is gem with ample space for vehicles and a full lakeside deck to soak up the scenery and the wildlife. Can’t wait until next time.

Amazing Property

Beautiful well appointed home. We have stayed at various locations in Eagle River and this home has become our favorite. The house sits on top of a hill affording beautiful views of Catfish Lake along with amazing sunsets. The location is extremely quiet. We were able to hear the loons every morning and evening. The home and property are immaculately maintained. We found the owners, Kristi and Tim very responsive. I highly recommend this property.

This is the second Maximoff property we have rented in Eagle River, and both are on pristine locations (great fishing lake a bonus) and with extremely clean and modern accommodations.

About the host

Hosted by Kristi Maximoff

Host profile image

The owner family has been coming to this property for 4 generations and welcome visitors to their Sunset Hill House.

Why they chose this property

The property is designed for enjoying all aspects of the North Woods: The Chain of Lakes, the nearby forest, the ducks, eagles, loons, fishing, boating, or just sitting in peace. The land has been in the owners family for over 100 years, starting with a small cottage built in 1904. The sunset hill house was built to take advantage of the stunning sunsets and views of the lake and the joy of the summer breeze. The newly constructed house is the only the second building added in over 100 years. See the Catfish Lake House (VRBO Listing #471857) for our first guest house and reviews. We welcome you to share in our tradition!

What makes this property unique

Sunset Hill Lake House is a new house with totally modern amenities and accommodations, along with stunning views (and unmatched sunsets). The property sits on a long untouched shoreline of Catfish Lake, the most desirable lake in the North Woods. At the lake, you will find a large dock with a swim ladder, sandy lake bottom and benches to sit in the middle of all the fun. Most days you can catch frequent sightings (from the house and the dock) of our resident loon, eagles, osprey and ducks. In the evening, relax on our decks or watch the game in the large living room or family room. At the end of the day, watch the sunset while enjoying s'mores by the fire pit.
