About this property

Come disconnect from the world at your own private & secluded waterfront estate. Enjoy year round entertainment and beauty on Island Lake, where you will be immersed in nature, and unwind with family and friends.

The cozy main cabin boasts 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a large living room, full kitchen and beautiful stone fireplace on top of a picturesque hill overlooking the stunning natural spring fed lake. For larger groups, the loft house has an additional bedroom, ample open air sleeping arrangements, as well as a full bath, and full kitchen.

Explore a sprawling 17 acres of Northern Wisconsin woods, and reacquaint yourself with the natural world. The property is home to a variety of wildlife, including Bald Eagles, White Tailed Deer, Red Headed Woodpeckers, Turtles, Loons, and so much more. A Fisherman's paradise, the lake holds Large Mouth Bass, Northern Pike, Bluegill, Crappie, and Catfish.

Please note that there is no boat launch but multiple boats are provided in your stay! 2 row boats, 2 paddle boards, 1 canoe

During the summer take advantage of the crystal clear waters, and spend the day lakeside. The stocked boat house includes a canoe, multiple row boats, and paddle boards, to supply endless summer fun on the water. At night build a bonfire and roast marshmallows under the stars---can you catch a glimpse of the Milky Way?

Autumn brings a sweeping of color through the trees, and a perfect opportunity for hikes at nearby Dave’s falls. Or gather round the outdoor fire pit and sip on apple cider!

Winter at the lake is perfect for snuggling up with a good book next to the fireplace, or for the more adventurous, a day of skiing at nearby Pine Mountain. Plenty of snowmobile trails exist throughout the area, but the sledding hill is ready to go and right outside your doorstep!

Enjoy the rebirth of life in Spring, and keep an eye out for fawns on the property! With plenty of fauna blooming on the property you’ll love exploring the grounds to find wildflowers and new growth!

Great family vacation!

An unforgettable Thanksgiving

By far the our best annual Thanksgiving weekend accommodations!! The view of the lake from the "cabin" was outstanding. Bedding on all the beds were beyond cozy. Always a bit weary of kitchenware to make our thanksgiving dinner but that was not a problem at Island Lake Estate. The outdoor hot tub was amazing. I tad complicated to get going, but instructions were very good. It was worth the effort. We all agreed it would be a wonderful property to spend some time at in summer. Communication with the owner was outstanding. I would highly recommend this Island Lake Estate to anyone. THANK YOU Jenna and family for sharing!

So peaceful

The property was amazing! It was so quiet and the view of the lake was spectacular. My husband and I enjoyed walking down the road with the dog every morning and being surrounded by nature. We saw deer, turkeys, loons and more. This place is going on my favorites list.

Very nice place

We loved our time at Island Lake. We enjoyed the lake and the kids had a blast. The master bedroom was very comfortable. The wifi wasn't very strong but I knew that would be the case from previous reviewers. The worst part was all the fees. They charge per person and the fees essentially double the price. We found that the vacation was much pricier than expected.

About the host

Hosted by Jenna Donnal

Hi we are Jenna & Andrew! Growing up, Jenna spent almost all of her free time up here in Northern Wisconsin, this house has been in her family for 40 years. When the owning member of the family decided to sell, we couldn't pass up the opportunity to make this place ours! Andrew has quickly fallen in love with Northern Wisconsin, although he's an Ohio boy at heart. We are currently living in the Chicago area, but coming up to Wausaukee is our escape! We both attended University of Iowa--Go Hawks! And have a 4 year old Great Dane named Sirius! We hope you come and stay with us, and see why we love this place so much!

When you come to stay with us, you are not just enjoying a vacation rental, you are staying at our beloved family home that has housed hundreds of happy memories, and we hope you will add more! Our property is secluded and private, so you don't have to worry about bumping elbows with anyone, and there is tons to explore! Take the boats out on the lake, or put your boots on and go hiking through the woods. Our house is filled with vintage treasures, the kind that make it feel like a rustic cabin in the woods--because it is!

What makes this property unique

Our lake is quiet and serene, and the property is nestled in 17 acres of lush nature.
