About this property

NEW: Northwoods Lakeside Retreat--Lac Vieux Desert

Forget your worries in this lakefront cabin, where tranquility meets adventure!

Welcome to our serene cabin, tucked away in the Northwoods on the shores of Lac Vieux Desert─a lake known for its world-record tiger musky! This cozy 4-bedroom retreat features 2 newly updated bathrooms, a loft with a bunk bed and sleeper sofa, and a spacious living room with a stone fireplace, Roku TV, and panoramic lake views. The fully-stocked kitchen has everything you need to make a meal in this home away from home after a day filled with adventure.

Step outside to immerse yourself in nature! Sip your morning coffee on the furnished deck, let the kids play on the backyard playground, and fire up the BBQ for a great cookout. As night falls, gather around the fire pit for s’mores and stargazing—on clear nights, you may even catch a glimpse of the Northern Lights. Our private pier offers easy lake access for swimming, fishing, boating, or kayaking (with two kayaks included). The surrounding wilderness is perfect for hiking, foraging, or ATV rides. Whether it’s summer fun, vibrant fall colors, ice fishing, or snowmobiling, this cabin ensures outdoor enjoyment year-round!

All rental facilities, including boats, ATVs, and snowmobiles are just 10 minutes away, and Eagle River is a 30-minute drive for dining and shopping options.

The cabin is equipped with high-speed Starlink internet, providing fast and reliable connectivity during your stay.

**We offer a 5% discount for stays of 7 nights or more, and a 10% discount for monthly bookings.**

Excellent stay! The house was perfect for our family trip. The kitchen was well equipped for the meals we cooked at home. The house was clean and well stocked. And the house was also pretty well insulated for sounds, which is something that helps us out with a young child who is woken up by the slightest sounds. The dock worked well for the pontoon we had, and there was good fishing nearby as well. We'd certainly stay here again!

WE LOVE THIS RENTAL. We rented this cabin for our 2 family (9), for the surprise wedding proposal of our son and their daughter. The house was very CLEAN and spacious with 2 bedrooms down, 2 up, along with a loft that also had a queen/ single bunk and a couch. Full baths up and down. We were impressed of the cleanliness. The decor was very cool. We loved the firepit. The host/owner was very friendly and Jonny on the spot with any questions we had. They checked in on us to make sure all was going well and if we needed anything just get ahold of them. They also went out of their way to deliver a gift to the engaged couple. We can't wait to return to use the deck and lake. THANK YOU
