Lake front cabin on the Eagle River chain. Pet friendly. Pontoon for rent.

Our cabin is located right smack in the middle of the true north woods experience and just outside the city limits. Vilas county is home to one of the largest collections of freshwater lakes in the world, with more than 1,300 beautiful lakes and 73 rivers and streams. The Eagle River chain is the largest freshwater chain of lakes in the world and boasts over 11,000 acres. It’s primarily known for its Muskies but also offers an exceptional fishery focusing on walleye and panfish. Fishing not your thing? No problem. The chain is fully recreational. Jet ski rentals and wake board boats are available to rent within a 1/2 mile of the cabin. Plenty of places to eat & catch a drink right off the water and even on the water (may come across a floating margarita bar). A few popular sand bars on the chain can become quite festive on holiday weekends.

The cabin itself is sprawled out giving everyone plenty of space and it’s not cramped like most of the cabins in the area. The entire property is 1 acre and its completely fenced in for dogs. Great WIFI signal for the area. Large game room is where most people like to congregate for some competitive ping pong, darts, bags, board games or some classic arcade games (over 400). Have bags, floatable’s, axe throwing, spike ball, lawn darts and 4 cross for outdoor entertainment. Two large fire pits in the back yard, one lakeside and one closer to the back patio. Picnic table and giant spool by lakeside fire pit. Two grills available for outdoor cooks. Neither is gas. I have a large Weber charcoal and a large green egg that I use primarily for smoking. It’s the best way to cook on vacation. Put some ribs on the grill, go out and enjoy your day on the water and come back home to a tasty dinner. Property has two kayaks that come with the rental. Fishing boat and pontoon boat also available for rent.

The town of eagle river itself has a population of 1,628 and has that small town charm with a vibrant downtown. Because of the many lakes in the area, the city is a popular vacation and retirement destination. The area contains many condominiums, seasonal vacation homes, and hunting cabins. Fishing, water sports, biking, hiking, antiquing, golfing, snowmobiling and ATV’ing are a just a few of the many activities the area offers.

The main house is about 30 yards from the water. The lakeside duplex is not operational atm but plans on remodeling it are in the works. There will be no work being done during your stay but we do plan on renting this out for multi family/large family weekly rentals during the summer, hopefully by summer 2027. The duplex would add an additional 950 sq ft of living quarters, with each side consisting of a full kitchen, bathroom, large bedroom and lakeside views from the living room through the large bay windows. You can’t get any closer to the water besides living in a house boat.
