Family Time
We stayed here last here and all agreed that we wanted to come back. The grandkids loved fishing off the dock and Meta lake is perfect for kayaking. We kept our boat at the dock across the road on Catfish and had no problems. There was enough room for all of us. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here. It helped that the weather cooperated also. Wish we could’ve stayed longer.

Eagle River
This was our second year enjoying a multigenerational family vacation. We love the Meta Lake house and the ability to enjoy paddle boarding and kayaking on Meta and Catfish lakes. The kids enjoyed playing in the sand and the shallow water by the dock. We loved the fire pit and making s’mores! Great place for family time!

About the host

Hosted by Kristi Maximoff

Host profile image
The 10 plus acres has been in the family since it was purchased in 1904. My husband, Tim lived all over the world growing up as a child, and the only place that was his "US home" was this family property in Eagle River, that they traveled back to every summer. His mother wrote a book about the history of the land, it's people and the original cottage build in 1909 and is still standing. We feature a copy of the book for guests to read in all three of our rental houses, and guests have loved reading it and walking the land afterwards.

Why they chose this property

The property is one of a kind as it allows you to spend your days in either lake based on the weather: when Catfish lake is windy, Meta lake is completely protected and still, so truly best of all worlds and provides many choices and fishing off 2 different docks...the pathway to Catfish dock is a lovely path through our forest with wild blueberries and ferns. It is a gradual slope so all ages can enjoy the walk: from little ones that want to take our wagon, or to those that use a walking stick or walker.

What makes this property unique

The house sits on a long untouched shoreline of Meta Lake. At the lake, you will find a dock with a swim ladder, sandy lake bottom and bench to sit on the dock in the middle of all the fun. Most days you can catch frequent sightings (from the house and the dock) of our resident loon, eagles, osprey and ducks. In the evening, relax on our decks or watch the game in the large living room or family room. At the end of the day, watch the sunset "golden time" while enjoying s'mores by the fire pit.
