2 bdrm cottage on the Chippewa River

There’s nothing quite like the outdoors. Whether you enjoy fishing, camping, biking, snowmobiling or hunting, it's all within your grasp. Looking out the front door of this beautiful cottage, you will see the breathtaking beauty of the Chippewa River. This cottage is great in any season. There are 6 windows across the river side of the cottage.
Summertime is great for fishing, boating, kayaking, canoeing or paddle boating. Fall is a great time to take a bike ride on the Old Abe Bike Trail, fish on the Chippewa River or go hunting for local wildlife including squirrel, deer, bear, rabbits, fox, etc. just a short distance away.
Winter is great for snowshoeing, cross country skiing, snowmobiling, and downhill skiing a short distance away.
Spring is a great time to watch the woods come alive after winter. Enjoy family activities such as biking, hiking, fishing and camp fires. Regardless of what season, or all, you intend to visit there is something for everyone.
Local attractions include Ice Age Trail, Leinenkugels Brewery, Brunet Island State Park and close proximity to Lake Holcombe and Lake Wissota. In the summer you are within minutes of the Country Fest and Rock Fest grounds and Jim Falls Sturgeon Festival over Labor Day.

What we needed

As the title states staying at the cottage was exactly what our family needed. The owners were very nice and communicative the place was clean and quiet. We had grandparents, my wife and I and our child but there's enough room here for all of us to enjoy family time but also each have our own space when needed. In terms of fishing we mainly caught channel cats and sturgeon off the dock fishing off the bottom but we're lucky enough that each one was bigger than the last. It was far enough away from towns that our child was able to see the stars for the first time and overall lovely enough that we created many a core memory for her. Definitely hope to choose this cottage again in the future!

Get Away

It was a cute place on the Chippewa River. We enjoyed grilling out and our view from the dining room table was spectacular. We also enjoyed the ducks coming right up to us . Having fires in the fire pit in the evening and watching the sunset and the stars . A lot of neat places to explore in the area and great hiking trails. Norm and Sue were great hosts .

Pleasant

Space was clean and of good size. The single window a/c unit had difficulty keeping up with the heat. Property owner welcomed me as I arrived, which was very helpful since the building is not well marked. The directions provided were very helpful. Considering an autumn stay.

Being honest

Norm and Sue were very good about helping us find their rental. The listing had the wrong address, but Sue had called to find out our arrival time and she gave correct address. However, GPS wasn't able to find it. We had wonderful view of river and cottage was spacious. But, the place needs a good cleaning. Especially bathroom/shower and cobwebs/dust throughout. If clean, we'd make it a repeat location.

Awesome view of Chippewa River

We found Sue and Norm’s place after abandoning plans to tent camp - rainy week predicted. Beautiful setting along the Chippewa River. Comfortable beds. Dining and relaxing seating area with large window view of the River. Fire ring out side between the cabin and water - we were able to use it two of the nights. From here, we drove to nearby sites to hike portions of the beautiful Ice Age Trail. Great bird watching both at the cabin and on the Trail. Nearby Cornell has 2 good ice cream shops plus we enjoyed pizza and beer at the Moonridge Brewing Company in Cornell. Norm and Sue were great hosts and responsive to inquiries. Sue even called during one storm to make sure we were ok.

Lovely view

Lovely view of river at this property. Be sure to bring linens. Hosts were gracious and brought sheets. Pillows etc. Over. Thank goodness because we didn't bring any due to description saying linens were included under property amenities. Host did send email which went under our radar mentioning no linens etc. No railing by the step to get in. And it's a sketchy step. I'm only mentioning this cause our other couple was older and the old wooden step was higher than average.The view is incredible. My complaint would be the smell of the whole cabin. A candle did help. It could use a major cleaning and needs a little help but ... It's not like we spent a huge amount of money to stay there.

Norm and Sue have a cozy and clean cabin. We enjoyed being right on the Chippewa River and the close proximity to the Old Abe Trail.
Sunsets are spectacular from the cabin!
September colors along the Old Abe Trail.
The Old Abe Trail runs along the Chippewa River for much of the way.
The tall trees make a tunnel for the trail on the north end by Cornell.
