Liked: Check-in, location
Disliked: Cleanliness
Not the cleanest and found less than desirable evidence of uncleanliness as our stay progressed. Location is beautiful on a small lake, but is right next to a highway. The uncleanliness and lack of upkeep was unfortunate, but overall still enjoyed the north woods and short driving distance to downtown.

The property’s location is excellent. Close to grocery stores, lake minocquoa, bear skin trail head. The kitchen has many items you may need and a spacious fridge/freezer. There is a pub you can boat to in lake Curtis but the lake does not allow for motorized boats (lake is quite small). Fun for young kids and playing around. The fire pit outside is nicely setup. The host was responsive when there were concerns.

Convenient location

Easy water access in a beautiful location- close to the highway for quick trips to town and the grocery store. The house was very well stocked and appreciated all of the helpful labeling and cots to help configure sleeping as we needed. Our group enjoyed the kayaks and evening fires outside.

Lake House

We enjoyed our Minocqua stay! The lake is gorgeous and house holds up to all the pictures shown. Lots of little touches made our stay extra easy: coffee k-cups, tons of towels, extra roll away beds that can be placed in the closets of the bedrooms to help, plenty of fans to keep the bedrooms cooler. The kayaks were so fun to use out on the lake but the paddleboad's rudder wasn't working. Easy fishing from the dock was a great bonus too.

There was plenty of entertainment available right at the house, as we had one rainy day, so kids played pool, darts, air hockey and foosball. Televisions are large and new. There was plenty of bath towels, wash cloths, shower supplies. there was ample cleaning supplies in the kitchen. The view was perfect, only sad that all the boats weren't working.

Great Place to Relax!

Traveling with a group of our church youth to a student competition, we needed a place to spend the night. This house was EVERYTHING I dreamed it would be. With plenty of space, lots of activities to let the teens relax after a long road trip, and very nice layout! We loved it! Super comfortable and reasonably priced.

Overall, the rental was pretty good. The bad: We did have an issue when we first arrived, but we were able to put a bandaid on it for the week we were there. Luckily we had 3 handy guys on the trip that could temporarily fix it. The owner compensated us for that. I expected the house to be more secluded however, the neighbors on either side were very close. Also, the house was overall clean but the floors needed swept and the dishwasher was full of dirty dishes. Now the good: The lake view was gorgeous and we loved the dock and boats. We fished, swam and kayaked. The back porch had amazing scenery/views in the morning. The house was big and comfortable and had plenty of room for the 10 of us. Different beds had different mattresses so all I can review is the master. I need that mattress! It was so comfortable, I haven't slept that well in ages. Some rooms got a little warm but there were fans and it was bearable. That being said, we always run a litte hot so it could have been just us. The location was perfect for everything we wanted to do. The house was well stocked with essentials and some extras. I do recommend this rental as a nice getaway.

Great Location

The house was very well stocked with kitchen supplies, plenty of paper products including toilet paper, paper towels, and garbage bags. There were areas of the house that could have been cleaned better. The kids enjoyed the lake swimming, kayaking, and fishing. They were able to catch fish right from the dock. Location is secluded but yet close to many things to do.

Winter 2024

The snowmobile trails weren’t open, so this house on Curtis Lake helped us take those blues away on our family getaway. Spent most of the time cooking, watching the football games and playing a lot of the games that were there. A great family vacation and would definitely return.

Snowmobile riders dream.

Rented the house for myself and my buddies to go snowmobiling from. Right on Curtis lake, and directly across from Minoqua Prime steak house. (Amazing steaks and food, highly recommend!!) House had plenty of room for us, and we really liked the large common areas. Beautiful property, we will be back!

Not worth it!!!

Some areas inside were clean but many areas have been neglected. Truthfully the place needs a thorough cleaning inside and out. Mice poop inside and outside on the front porch, bags of discarded dog poop left by the stairs in the back yard. A window in one of the bedrooms didn’t close all the way. The place is extremely over priced for what it had to offer.

Entertaining and beautiful views!

Great location with a nice lake view. Rode the Kayaks on a beautiful sunny morning and it was the nightlight of our stay. We enjoyed grilling our burgers and carne asada ! The fire pit was great for our smoores, kept us nice and cozy in the night. When it was raining outside we enjoyed the pool table and darts! Everything was easily assessable since it was labeled. The only thing I would mention is the deer on the way there. Please be careful with the animals crossing at night. Be aware of them so you don’t hit them. Other than that it was an awesome little vacation. Lots of beds and lots of blankets to keep you warm ! Will def be back !
