Lake life
Beautiful views, plenty of space for the family. Dock for your boat. Close to town , but still away enough. Everything you’ll need in a kitchen, comfy furniture. Couple tips, if you bring your own boat , launch it before you go, drive way is longer and turning around with it is a bit of a challenge, manageable, but the boat launch is close by so easier to drop it 1st. Quite a few of stairs from the drive to the house, mentioned in the description but didn’t deter our trip, was good exercise, just mentioning if anyone plans to bring someone with physical limitations. Overall a great stay, went by too quick!

Pond Hockey
Even though all the festivities were canceled due to the warm weather, we were still able to enjoy the lake and location. We walked to the Marina Bar (closed but talked to the owner) and the Nutty Squirrel. The house itself was very clean and had more then enough beds to accommodate our group.

Excellent location and communication with property manager
This residence what everything we expected. Great location near the water. Quiet area with privacy. We had a snowmobile trip planned but the trails were closed. The property manager was the first to tell me the trails were closed and gave us great options of fun things to do. She went above and beyond! Would highly recommend!

Million Dollar View
Beautiful home and view. If you don’t mind 36 stairs up and down to the house …this is for you!!! Beds were comfortable, kitchen was well equipped (don’t forget to turn the ice maker on). My husband and I had a blast playing FoosBall. Plenty of wildlife to view right out the living room windows. Be sure and pack an iron (just in case). I could stand in the door of the bedroom and see nothing but water….you felt you were ON the water! Well done!

Waterfront!!!!!!
The home was beautiful and had a sprawling view of the water. All bedrooms other than the bunk room faced the water, what a spectacular way to wake up. One unexpected surprise was that the kitchen/ eating area was at one side of the house while the family room / bar area was down a long hall at the other end of the house. The separation came in handy a few times when the kitchen was hopping. The long hallway was very entertaining for the littles. We caught lots of fish, had lots of fun, it was a fabulous week.

A house with everything!
We are a family of 6 adults and 4 kids (1-8). We loved the house because it was a ranch style. It is close to waters edge. Two piers, one with chairs and benches, was very nice. The house had everything! So much stuff in the kitchen. We brought a lot of things we did not need because the host provided it all, including some bottle water! Two of the bedrooms are VERY large. Plenty of outdoor seating and nice firepit. Abundant wildlife. We had a mom doe and her two fawns visit us several times a day. Kids got such a kick out of that. Eagles, mink, cranes, a fox, muskrats were some others. Easy drive to Eagle River. The only "cons" were: stairs from the road to the house, and the kids were disappointed there was no slide on the swimraft. ( owner said it had broken), but they still had a blast nonetheless, and only 1 TV in the whole house. But in actuality that made all of us more in tune with the outdoors and less on technology. Steve answers all questions very quickly!

Great place
Spacious living arrangements on a beautiful lake. Lots of amenities. Nice dock and platform. Really enjoyed staying there. The only issue we had was we brought a boat and the driveway really has no place to turn around once you enter. You don’t realize that until you’re already in too far. Overall a nice vacation property
