Dollar Lake Retreat, a beautifully restored lake house, takes you back in time — in all the best ways. Just 37 feet from the water's edge, you'll be immersed in amazing sunsets, loon calls, and the tranquil beauty of Dollar Lake. The cozy living room occupies the original 1895 cabin, featuring the first of three fireplaces and panoramic view of the lake. The updated chef's kitchen makes cooking a dream with large island, Viking range, 2 dishwashers and room for everyone around the table and fireplace. The game room will keep everyone entertained on a rainy day with a large smart TV, sectional seating, game table and loads of fun. The second level features a sitting room with vaulted ceiling, workspace, and fireplace — a cozy place to converse, read a book or tackle a puzzle. You'll also find four unique queen-sized bedrooms and a laundry area. The kids will rush to the sleeping loft — the perfect hangout spot after a day of swimming.

Outside you'll enjoy the large permanent pier and floating swim dock, sandy-bottom swim area and plenty of water toys to keep you busy all day. Just outside the kitchen is a large patio featuring a 5-burner gas grill and a Solo Stove® Yukon fire pit, surrounded by comfortable Adirondack seating. PONTOON RENTAL NOW AVAILABLE!

perfection!

I can't give enough stars! Kevin and Angie thought of every detail to make our stay perfect. I love feeling like you are truly in the North Woods while simultaneously being spoiled with every modern comfort you can possibly need. The kitchen is better stocked than my home kitchen and the table is a great place to gather for family games. This is my 3rd stay at Dollar Lake and I can honestly say that there is no such thing as an off-season or a bad time of year to enjoy it. The weather during my latest stay was not ideal, but that only made the inside cozier and gave us more reason to gather for games, pizzas, and wine. Morning coffee in the living room, in front of that picture window, is the most perfect and peaceful way to start your day. Cozy blankets and comfy furniture invite laziness and snuggles.

A true Northwoods gem

We enjoyed an amazing winter weekend with some lifelong friends at the Dollar Lake Retreat. We found Angie and Kevin to be gracious hosts who went above and beyond to ensure our stay was both comfortable and enjoyable. Their home is not only tastefully decorated, but wonderfully appointed with no detail missed. It's also spotlessly clean and well stocked. We visited during an exceptionally cold weekend, but we still found plenty to keep us busy - a snowy walk on Dollar Lake Rd, lunch and shopping in downtown Eagle River, dinner at a local supper club, lounging on the sectional watching the Packers game and Yahtzee and cards by the fire. We were so sad to see our stay come to an end - we're already planning our return. Next time we may bring our adult children along - there's plenty of room for all!

Luxury in the North Woods

Dollar Lake Retreat is the most beautiful rental in the northwoods. It's an amazing, perfectly curated, luxury stay for up to 14 guests. Our family included 3 preteens who loved the huge game/entertainment room where we enjoyed games, cards, football on the big screen, and karaoke! The adults took full advantage of the huge gourmet kitchen. It was the perfect place to cook amazing meals together and feel like we were being spoiled. We loved the coffee station and beverage center - perfect for our budding mixologist. The bedrooms are so beautiful and comfortable. It was hard to pick one! The bathrooms were equally amazing - they have everything that you need. The kids loved the loft sleeping area. So cute, and super comfortable! Angie and Kevin are amazing hosts. They have truly thought of everything! The outdoor spaces are beautiful, and it's a perfect environment for relaxing. Three fireplaces inside and a Solo stove outside ensure that you are always cozy. I wish we could have stayed even longer, and we can't wait to go back!

Fall Stay

My girlfriends and I stay in Eagle River every fall. Angie and Kevin’s Dollar Resort so far is out favorite. As moms trying to relax the cleanliness and decor at this resort really made us feel like we were being treated to luxury. Hope to go back next year with better weather conditions to really take advantage of the lake and fire pit area. Lovely place.

Northern Nirvana!

So you may have read several reviews about this house and are wondering if it is as spectacular as everyone says it is ... can it really be that good? And I’m here to tell you, in the words of Elaine Benes on Seinfeld, “oh, it be!” Many times, rental listing pictures look much better than the actual home – not in this case! This place is the real deal and even more breathtaking in person. From the view of the lake & sunsets out of the massive picture windows, to the eclectic mix of modern convenience & midcentury vintage-y up north cabin design, to the fireplace in the cozy vibes kitchen, to the fabulously clean everything … no detail was overlooked. We’ve rented homes and condos in America and Europe. Never before have we enjoyed a rental where the homeowners anticipated our every possible need even before we actually thought of them! The attention to detail is unmatched and allowed us to immediately feel at home, at ease, welcome and relaxed. The owners have lovingly curated an environment full of personality by combining many unique and ‘found’ design elements – an environment that facilitates conversation, connection with each other and nature, contemplation, rest, recharging and all the fun things living on a lake entails. We are so grateful to have found our ‘up north nirvana’ - can’t wait to return! Thank you, Angie, Kevin and Lauren - you are such a kind & generous family to open this special home to others who share your appreciation of this magical place.

About the host

Hosted by Angie & Kevin, Take to the Lake LLC

Angie and Kevin retired early from their careers, Angie as a Creative Director at an apparel retailer and Kevin as a Project Manager in commercial construction. In 2020, they sold their house and most of their possessions and, along with their daughter Lauren and Weimaraner Max, traveled full time in an RV for 8 months before settling down in Eagle River, WI. They are now realizing their dream of helping families continue the tradition of the “Up North” family vacation by creating unique, upscale vacation rental destinations.

What makes this property unique

You'll enjoy the Chef's Kitchen, fully stocked with quality pots, pans and utensils — everything you need for an amazing stay. Pontoon rental is now available to enjoy sunset cruises and take the kids tubing. You don't have to share a bedroom — we have 4 private queen bedrooms!
