About the host
Hosted by Kristi Maximoff

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.
