Perfect Property
Our extended family had a wonderful time here. The location is ideal as it is private and feels isolated yet all the Minoqua amenities are within minutes. The lake is quiet, clean and great for boating, swimming, and fishing. The shoreline at the house is flat and sandy for swimming. The house itself both inside and out has all the amenities and space we needed with our multiple families. The owner is amazing to work with and we plan to return soon!

Wonderful week at the lake...
This is a great spot to relax and enjoy time with family and friends. The lake has minimal traffic providing excellent opportunities to go out with the pontoon boat and the paddle boat. We also brought along two kayaks which were a lot of fun. Great fishing off the dock. The well-stocked house easily accommodated our group of 9. The hot tub was a pleasant surprise, we used it often. Walmart is just around the corner for anything you might need. Carolyn and Bill are excellent hosts ... communication and tour when we arrived were second to none.

Great family Week!
Our group of seven adults, four children, and one dog enjoyed our week in Carolyn's lovely home. The sandy,shallow beach area was perfect for "kid fun" on our floating lily pad. Pontoon rides and rides on our Big Mabel towable were lots of fun, too. The kids enjoyed watching and catching lots of smaller fish from the dock and the pontoon Looking across the lake we felt like we were in the middle of nowhere----but a short two-minute drive found us at Walmart for buying whatever we forgot or ran out of. If you're planning to invite extra daytime guests or bring a dog, be sure to visit with Carolyn ahead of time.

Great Location!
This was our first time in Minocqua (we usually stay in Conover). This property is just minutes from everything we wanted to do and if you like pan-fish (which we do) this lake is perfect. The kids loved fishing off the dock and wading in the water to fish and swim.

About the host

Host profile image
My husband Bill and I having been enjoying the Minocqua area since our marriage in 2000. I, however, have been enjoying the north woods my entire life. I was lucky enough to be born and raised in Minocqua, Wisconsin. I always loved the area but did not realize how truly blessed I was until I left the area during my college years. I knew then that I would work as hard as I needed to to be able to have my own North Woods get-away one day.
