I rented many Musser Lake rentals for my family this weekend because my family and I came together to celebrate our parents 63 year anniversary. Kari was not only the best host of all of the homes we rented, but her lake home itself was the most favorite. We were able to share some great memories on this trip, thanks to Kari and her beautiful and cozy lake home.

We had a wonderful time. The house was beautiful and clean, very comfortable! Beds were comfortable, kitchen had everything we needed and even though there was no A/C, there were ceiling fans and other fans to keep it cool enough. Overall it was a very nice place.

The perfect secluded lake getaway

It was so peaceful with beautiful views of the lake. Just what we needed & the dog too, tons of fun playing in the lake & large private yard. Plenty of hiking trails close by & just a short jaunt to restaurants & shops.

Perfect location for a family get away

The location was wonderful. We loved fishing off the dock and were able to put our little boat in just down the road. The kids had a blast in the water. We are definitely adding it to our favorites list.

Great Location and View

We loved staying here! It was a great location for our purposes, and so very relaxing, even in the winter. I can imagine that it is even more wonderful in the summer! The host is extremely helpful and answers questions immediately! We highly recommend this listing!

Great Stay

Cabin was as advertised. Tons of room although we didn't spent a great deal of time there. Great location for us, minutes from Phillips. Beautiful views from the cabin and the pier. Could not have asked for more.

Good times, good value

Cabin is situated well on the property. It overlooks a slice of the lake between the trees with a slanted grassy area that leads to the lake and includes a fire pit. The space fit 5 adults comfortably enough (we brought an air mattress). We enjoying using the kayaks and canoes, the air hockey table, and the fire pit. Was exactly what we were looking for.

Beautiful North Country Cabin

We enjoyed four nights at this beautiful cabin on Lake Musser. House was cozy and stacked with firewood, view of the snowy pine trees and iced over lake is good for the soul. Nicely groomed cross-country ski trails a short drive from the cabin. We saw plenty of deer, a coyote and bald eagle!

Beautiful and comfortable stay. Very clean and accommodating. Good fishing and nicely manicured, private yard. Lake rake for beach would've been nice. Unfortunately, we found by accident several potholes throughout the property and one of our crew spent 3 days with a badly sprained ankle. Great vacation spot otherwise. Check-in was easy and the kitchen was spotless. Five stars when the holes get filled!

Wonderful Getaway

This property was just right for our family of 5 and dog. Game room, full kitchen, two double beds in 1 bedroom for our girls with an extra mattress for our boy - in addition to our master bedroom, beautiful view from deck, 2 kayaks and 2 canoes, fire pit, grill … very secluded feeling. It was exactly what we wanted.

Great stay!

Had a fabulous time with some high school/college friends. Ended up catching about 50-60 fish including a small 30 inch musky. Place was exceptionally clean and the views from inside were perfect. The fire pit is located close enough to the water to really get the lake feel. The canoes and kayaks provided were way beyond expectation compared to previous up north stays. Very impressed and would definitely recommend.

Hey Steve, it shouldn’t be advertised anywhere that we offer a washer and dryer. We do not. The welcome letter states the dish washer isn’t connected. We have a holding tank being on the lake instead of a septic. So we never have used the dishwasher. There are TWO patio doors in the living room. The one on the left has furniture placed in front of it as it doesn’t work properly. The one on the right works fine, or has every time I’ve been to my place. I prefer to be contacted while you are there so I can do my best to resolve issues during your stay and make you happy!

Good place, a few small changes would make it betterReally large space. Well equipped kitchen. My kid really liked the darts and air hockey. Big yard with a nice fire pit. The living room was comfortable.The beds could use a foam topper, especially in the room with two beds. If the Wi-Fi is weak take the router out of the cubby hole it's in and it will stop overheating. Once we did that we could get signal on the dock

Thank you for the review. That is good to know about the WiFi. The company that installed it- placed the router there. Probably the fastest way for them to install and leave! I’ll see about changing its location so it works better. I’ll see about a mattress topper!

Musser Cottage

The cottage was Great, a very nice place. We enjoyed indoor and outdoor fires. Had fun in the kayaks and my dog even learned how to ride in the canoe! Only disappointment was no swimming. Water was not good quality. Did catch some small fish, even a couple enuf to have a snack on. Very private setting. Kari was always easy to get answer from too.

I’m glad you liked the house and found everything you needed. Thankfully the temperature in Phillips drops significantly at night high 50’s -60’s. So you can use the box fans in addition to the ceiling and be PLENTY cool when sleeping. We are getting quotes and looking into adding air conditioning by next summer.

Fishing getaway

Property and home were wonderful. Comfortable, relaxing, and perfect for our needs. Docking our 14 foot fishing boat at the dock proved challenging due to lack of posts along pier, but we managed. Fishing proved challenging but what we did catch was good size. 18 1/2 inch largemouth and a surprise 45 inch musky caught right off dock. All other bass good size as well! Overall, a beautiful property, property manager who was easy to work with, and another great trip to northern Wisconsin.
