Perfect Waterfront Retreat Destination on Lake Winnebago

Welcome to Robin’s Nest, your warm and inviting retreat on the picturesque waterfront of Lake Winnebago! This delightful two-bedroom, one-bathroom house is nestled near South Asylum Bay, providing a serene yet convenient location that is just a short seven-mile drive to EAA.


Inside, you'll find a cozy primary bedroom with a comfortable queen bed, while the second bedroom features a full-over-full bunk bed, perfect for children or friends. The family room offers flexible sleeping arrangements with both a queen sleeper sofa and a separate twin sleeper sofa.


Step outside into the backyard oasis, where you'll discover a 40-foot dock, inviting fire pit, a six person Master Spas hot tub for relaxation, and a raised deck that offers breathtaking views of the lake. Unwind in one of the hammocks during a midday siesta, sizzle up a delicious dinner on the grill, and witness the mesmerizing moonrise over the glistening waters. Fall asleep to the soothing sounds of the waves gently crashing against the rocks, as the cool breeze wafts through an open window.


For those seeking adventure, we have you covered. Take advantage of the two kayaks, two paddle boards, and provided life jackets for exciting water exploration. In the garage, you'll also find bicycles to explore the area, cornhole (bags) boards for friendly competitions, a ping pong table for entertainment, and a poker table for unforgettable game nights.


For those who bring their own laptop for work or online activity, there is a small desk in the primary bedroom with monitors, keyboard, and a mouse available.

We had an excellent stay at Robin’s Nest and would highly recommend it to anyone staying in the area! It was clean and cozy with incredible lakefront views of Lake Winnebago. Every major amenity you would need is available to you. Also, the dogs loved it! They had beds, toys and bowls waiting for them. There is also a very nice lakefront trail about 5 minutes from the property to get their walks in. The hosts are communicative and helpful as well! Highly recommend!

Perfect Getaway

This was a great place to get away! The house was perfect for ourselves and our kids. It was clean and had all the comforts of home. The lake was perfect for wading or floating on the paddle boards provided by the hosts. The hot tub had plenty of room for us and was accompanied by impeccable views of Lake Winnebago. We will definitely be returning!!

Communication from owner was great and any questions we had were answered quickly by text. We loved that they allowed dogs and had everything our pup needed, even toys. The hot tub was also wonderful. Would stay here again!

Great Cottage!

This was the nicest cottage we have rented. My sons and I have been coming to Wisconsin for years to fish and renting cabins. Robins nest was in a great location on the lake and the ace was clean, well furnished and cozy.

Perfect Weekend Getaway

We made a last minute trip up to Green Bay and decided to stay at this lovely property on the lake. There were beautiful views onto the lake - we watched the sunrise most mornings. The hot tub was super relaxing. The neighborhood was quiet and quaint. This house is perfect like us that wanted to take our dogs on vacation with us. There were extra toys, snacks, and the ability to tether our pup to let her explore freely. Would love to stay here another time when it is a bit warmer to go kayak and paddleboard out on the water.

Pictures and details are completely accurate! This is a great property with wonderful hosts. We worked through an issue with running power out to the boat for charging. The hot tub is phenomenal and a wonderful end to a full day on the lake. Table tennis offered a great game for the whole family to enjoy. The queen sleeper sofa is in the perfect position for beautiful sunrises! So convenient to have the dock and thanks for keeping it in for us at the end of the season! Highly recommend!!

Would definitely recommend.

The house sits on a quiet road, the pictures in the listing are completely accurate. Paul was a quick responder to any questions I had. Check in was smooth and flawless. We (pup included) enjoyed the house,yard and dock. The house was spotless when we arrived and had everything we could need. The kayaks, paddle boards and ping pong table were a huge plus. We enjoyed the Oshkosh outdoor market and dinner at Gardina’s. If you are looking to stay in Oshkosh, I highly recommend this property.

Wonderful stay!

We had a great stay at this property. The host was very easy to work with, and the property was exactly as advertised. It was perfect for our needs as a family of 5 traveling with dogs. The views of Lake Winnebago were beautiful and peaceful. The host was very generous and provided all we could need for our stay, including coffee and some special items for celebrating the new year. The beds and furniture were comfortable and clean, the kitchen had everything we needed and then some, there were toys and beds for the dogs, and the neighbors were kind and friendly when we were out on our walks. The property is near several stores and restaurants. We did not try out the hot tub or make a fire, but we really appreciated that this option was there and the host provided smore fixings if we had had time. Overall, a fabulous visit, highly recommend.
