Carol's Rest Lake Cottage



The Space:

Escape to your perfect lakefront retreat in Manitowish Waters! Nestled on pristine Rest Lake, part of the beautiful Manitowish Chain of Lakes, this cozy 2-bedroom, 1-bath cottage is the ideal getaway for couples, small families, or friends who want peace, comfort, and adventure.



Inside, you’ll find two bright and comfortable bedrooms, each featuring a queen bed. The full bathroom is stocked with essentials, fresh linens, and towels. A fully equipped kitchen makes it easy to prepare lakeside dinners, and guests also have access to a gas grill for outdoor cookouts. The open living and breakfast bar area offers plenty of natural light and views of the lake, creating the perfect spot to relax after a day outdoors. Enjoy the cozy open concept gas fireplace on those cooler evenings.



Step outside to enjoy your own private dock on Rest Lake, perfect for swimming, paddling, or launching a boat. Guests have access to a portable fire pit, paddle boat, lily pad float, and two kayaks, making it easy to enjoy long days on the water and evenings under the stars. The peaceful surroundings bring gorgeous water views, misty mornings, and the calls of loons echoing across the lake.



A short drive takes you into downtown Manitowish Waters where you’ll find shops, restaurants, and nature trails waiting to explore. The Heart of Vilas County Bike Trail System is right nearby, offering miles of paved paths through the Northwoods for biking, walking, or cross-country skiing in the winter.



This cottage is truly a year-round retreat. In summer, spend your days boating, fishing, or exploring the Manitowish Chain of Lakes, then unwind around the fire pit under star-filled skies. Fall brings vibrant colors, crisp air, and scenic drives along the backroads. Winter offers snowmobiling, ice fishing, and skiing, while spring is perfect for peaceful hikes and watching the woods come alive again.



The cottage includes Wi-Fi for streaming or remote work, parking for three vehicles, and a fire pit area that’s perfect for s’mores in every season.



This cottage offers the perfect balance of rustic charm and modern convenience. Whether you’re here to bike, fish, paddle, snowmobile, or simply relax on the deck with a book, it’s a place to slow down, reconnect, and make lasting memories.
