Amazing property! We have been bringing our family here for many years. Always have a great time, from young to old. Never disappointed. The sand beach, kid ATV's, and play area make it all work great!! Nice fire pit for adults right on the lake with a view of the big dipper. We will continue to come back!!

Wonderful family vacation!

This place was better than listed and amazing for small children. Our daughter was beyond excited at all the toys, and we were comforted by the baby gates that were provided. The lake and neighborhood is so quiet and peaceful. We hope to return soon!

Great family get together!

The property was beautiful to bring everyone together. It was like our own private resort. Kids swimming all day, fishing off the pier, reading on the deck, and a sky full of stars when we are sitting by the fire. This is our fourth year and we all look forward to it each year!

Summer 2025

Plenty of room for our family of 5. Loved the updated kitchen and baths. Lake was very peaceful, with lots of nature. Caught several muskies! But also enjoyed the easy access to the chain and all of the "action" of Manitowish Waters. Also took advantage of the short drive to Boulder Junction and the Minocqua area. Fantastic overall.

Northwoods Perfection

Our family had the most wonderful stay at Paul and Tina's lake home. The house is exactly as described and the lake is beautiful. The kayaks, SUP, lily pad, swim dock and sandy bottom made for wonderful days spent on the lake. Paul and Tina were super responsive to any questions we had and everything was well thought out. We hope to stay here again soon!

Perfect Place!

This house was perfect for our stay! Great location on the lake, well stocked with supplies and a really well done vacation home. Paul was a terrific host! Very responsive, and when the dishwasher broke, he had a new one installed within a day. We also enjoyed all the water toys (canoe, kayaks, SUP and swim mat) and had s’mores by the fire every night. We would definitely book again!

family summer vacation

everything was as noted...great house with everything we needed. the multiple sitting areas and large kitchen area allowed us to spread out. lake is quiet as it is at the end of the chain but it also means a lengthy trip to the other lakes (1.5 hrs to Rest Lake on a pontoon boat). use of garage was very appreciated

Fun family week!

3 families, along with 2 grandkids for a week in beautiful northern Wisconsin. This property allowed all of us to come together for the week. Taking turns cooking in the large kitchen and sharing meals with an amazing view of Wild Rice Lake. Swimming, sand toys, canoe, kayak, paddle board and Maui Matt kept us all enjoying each other’s company. A real winner of a home!

Wonderful Vacation Spot

We enjoyed your property very much! Quiet mornings with a cup of coffee by the lake were a great way to start the day. There were plenty of restaurants and places to explore during the day for those of us who wanted to get out. Those of us who stayed home spent the day playing in the lake. Sitting around the fire and listening to the loons in the evening was a perfect way to wind down the day. We would all recommend this property to anyone looking for a place to stay. We look forward to returning on future vacations!

Dream Vacation

This is our 2nd time staying at this house on Wild Rice Lake. We absolutely love this place. The house has everything we needed and the lake is nice and quiet. We watched sunrises while drinking coffee, we spent our days boating, fishing, kayaking and playing in the water. We ended our days with lots of laughter around the fire. Eagles flying overhead, loons calling and stars galore. Such a relaxing vacation. Our hearts are full. We will be back!

Up North Family Fantasy

Week up north with 4 adult children and 3 grandchildren (ages 3, 6, 7). We all were thrilled with the home, the lake access, the dock for fishing, the kayaks, and the garage filled with an amazing assortment of toys. The kitchen offered all that we needed and more, including the electric griddle for morning pancakes. We couldn’t have been happier. Thank you for making this house available.
