About this property

Stepaway Vacation Rentals-Sweet Verna

This amazing, family-friendly home on private lake Verna is amazing and makes a great retreat to escape to!
Enjoy terrific views of Verna Lake from the floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room and spacious, open deck. The deck is a great space to gather and enjoy the outdoors with plenty of patio chairs, a gas grill, and a convenient outdoor dining area to enjoy all of your meals .
Sweet Verna has all the comforts of home . 4 bedrooms and 3 full baths offer enough space for everyone!
Another great spot is the firepit - don't hesitate to snuggle up with your favorite blanket while the storyteller of the group amuses everyone in the group with amazing stories and tales.
Smart TV, Fiber optic Wi Fi and central AC make for a comfortable stay!

The lake is beautiful, the house included kayaks, a canoe, and pedal boats that you can use to fish, sometimes hooking a bass on the first cast! Fish from the dock every day ! The home is tastefully and thoughtfully decorated making it feel very home-like. There are nearby sandy beaches to spend the day at. Close to Minocqua for shopping, antiques, and restaurants.

Perfect location for a family extended weekend trip

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I think my family would all 100% agree that we thoroughly enjoyed our weekend stay at Sweet Verna. The distance from everything we wanted to do in Minocqua and Woodruff was perfect. There was plenty of space and enough beds for everyone in our group. Having three bathrooms was tremendous, too. The lake and grounds are beautiful, and we appreciated the paddle boats, canoe and kayaks. The lake water is very clear, but it is pretty shallow so my son had a difficult time fishing because of the vegetation in the water (even in the canoe away from the shore). Wildlife was all around us the whole time, so it is quite an experience if you are not used to seeing deer walking in the water to get a drink or munch on the plants, or bald eagles soar over the lake. The only complaints we have are the twin bed mattresses are extremely firm, and the queen bedroom downstairs had some tiny ants but you are in the woods. We all agree we would stay at this property again in the future.

Sweet Cerna

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The place was great to stay in for six adults. The lake was ok to fish from the dock but unusable by boat because you couldn’t put the boat in because the launch was in bad shape. So we had to go to another lake to fish if we wanted to use the boat, but the house was in good shape. It was clean. The staff was excellent to work with. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Sweet Verna was the perfect place for our family vacation in the Northwoods. It was spacious, clean, and a beautiful deck and pier ro view the lake and hear the loons. It was close to everything and yet was far enough away from town to be peaceful and quiet. I would definitely stay here again.
