Wonderful!

We had such a wonderful time at the boathouse. It was so peaceful and we enjoyed the beautiful view. We loved having a dock right on the site and being able to jump in our boat. The host was very helpful and answered our questions quickly. We will definitely be staying there again.

Little log cabin on the water

We absolutely loved it! It’s peaceful & a quaint environment. I walked every morning & loved it with hardly any traffic. I didn’t want to leave!! Also, you are very close to grocery stores, etc. Highly recommend.

Great stay on the lake

Very nice 1 bedroom boathouse right over the water. We were able to tie up our boat to the dock and also fish for blue gill off the dock. Very clean. Enjoyed seeing and hearing the Eagle in the morning.

Beyond thrilled

My family and I were very pleasantly surprised not only to see how beautiful the home was, but the view of the lake was amazing. There is not much else you could want for a getaway than this place. It's peaceful, clean, I need to do outdoors. It was perfect!

Best Boathouse

Clean, friendly (dog friendly too)! Comfy, all the necessities. Great spot for hanging out and doing some fishing. Excellent views with an added bonus of being up close to an eagles nest! We usually go to Indian shores to hang out with my in-laws but we found ourselves wanting to stick around our VRBO more! We will be back again!

Cozy cabin over the water

We were in town for a long wedding weekend. The boathouse was a perfect spot for my husband and I to stay along with our puppy. Very clean and cozy, friendly and responsive communications from the owner. Beautiful piece of property and stunning lake views!

Great little boathouse

My husband, son (13), our dog and I loved our stay at the boathouse. It had everything we needed for our family. We love the Minocqua chain, Mid Lake was perfect for our ski boat and we caught a lot of fish. The boathouse has everything we needed, and some things we forgot and were able to use. The sounds of the loons and the eagles are the perfect summer sounds on the lake. Thanks again!

Long Weekend before Memorial Day weekend

We couldn’t have asked for a better place with magnificent views and fishing. Eagles nesting on the property were amazing. The sound of loons and wildlife were wonderful. The UTV trails were accessible from the property. Super clean and cozy. Met the owners and enjoyed their hospitality. Our dog had the best time swimming, retrieving and enjoyed sniffing the panfish we were catching off the pier! No doubt we will be back!

Peaceful lake

The views were gorgeous with being fall couldn’t get on the lake visiting friends. Wasn’t at house much except to sleep. Wish we would have been told to bring our own wash rags- towels and toilet paper and paper towels. One towel wash rag each for 3 day stay- one roll of toilet paper and half roll of paper towels for 3 day stay? Went to Walmart and got extra.

Wisconsin Get Together

The property was beautiful and the scenery was unbelievable. We had no issues with the amenities offered. The only issue which really diminished our stay was the toilet. We had to plunge the toilet basically after each use. For the amount of money we paid that should've never been an issue. If we knew this prior to coming, we'd have stayed at a hotel. We would be cautious about staying here again unless that issue has been resolved. Very upsetting for my wife, who booked this vacation.

A Must Stay!

This is a beautiful property! Walked in to fresh flowers on the counter with a chocolate for each of us. Necessity bowl in the bedroom in case we forgot something. The host was wonderful. Everything you need is there! And a few unexpected treats! We were in awe! Eagles with babies within view. We were obsessed with them. Easy walk down a few stairs to the dock. You are actually on the water! With spectacular views! Especially sunsets. We are hoping to make this a yearly trip!

Perfect Place

We fell in love with the boathouse when we first saw it advertised, so we booked it right away. A week prior to arrival, we were nervous that the pictures wouldn’t be accurate. Well, a picture is worth a thousand words. A thousand amazing words. From sunrise to sunset everything about our stay was picture perfect. The house has everything you need, from AC to Wi-Fi, and even towels. I was also very impressed how super clean this place was. The pictures however, didn’t capture the awesome hosts who went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. Although the surrounding towns are close and have a lot to offer. We really didn’t want to venture away from this little piece of heaven. We were fortunate enough to extend our stay for one more night. We would have stayed another week, or more, if it was available. The eagles on the property are an added bonus to this 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ gem of the Northwoods❤️

Love the view

Cozy cabin feel. Loved the large windows and being able to see the sunrise and the sunset over the water. Kitchen was well equipped and liked the little basket of extra's (shampoo, 1st aid kit etc.). Nice variety of items if needed. The toilet is in a rather tight area (wished there would be more room around it). Shower is a good size and with exhaust fan built into it, the mirror doesn't fog up. There are no window coverings in the living area. I would like to see window coverings on the window that looks at the main house for more privacy. Plenty of storage for suitcases, hanging clothes etc. Nice location between Lake Tomahawk and Woodruff, approx. 4+ miles each way. Boathouse has a nice deck and firepit area, which we didn't have a chance to use. Overall, we had a great stay.
