Eagle River, Wisconsin
Picturesque setting on beautiful, crystal clear Bass Lake. Located just 7 minutes east of downtown Eagle River, WI. 1.68 wooded acres with 100 feet of gorgeous, hard sand frontage. Tranquility awaits you at this cottage situated on the shores of one of the area's most sought after, spring fed lakes that features breathtaking views and great fishing. Enjoy all weather sports here, boating, water skiing, tubing, swimming, sailing, fishing, skiing, cross country skiing, hiking, snowmobiling, ice skating, etc. This lake is most desireable because it is a private, full recreation lake (no large crowds). Eagles nest in the large pines and oak trees along the lakefront. You will be amazed at the incredible sunsets and kaleidoscopic light show from the northern lights. The cottage has a queen bed in the master, a pullout couch and futon in the living area and 2 twin beds(bunk) in the lower level. It sleeps 8 but can house more if needed. The kitchen is equipped for any gourmet.
Sit out on the balcony to enjoy your morning coffee or evening refresher and listen to the peace and quiet. The home offers 2 kayaks with paddles, a large pier for your water toys and entertaining enjoyment and a swim platform. This area of the lake has a sandy bottom with a very gradual drop off - perfect for little ones. The cottage is rustically enhanced in the Northwoods theme by the full log furniture.
We’ve enjoyed family time at Chris’s properties for 3 years now…. Each time has been amazing!
I really enjoyed my stay. It should be more apparent that there is a fairly steep decent to the lake. Also, the main housing/kitchen and shower are all up a long flight of stairs. It was fine for me, but if someone has mobility issues, it would be very difficult. I would recommend staying there, but would like people to know thoses things up front.
The property was more beautiful than could be imagined. The shady little area right by the dock is enchanting. Sand, pine needles, moss, chipmunks eating our peanuts, eagles soaring overhead -- heaven! We figured out what the fish were biting pretty early and had great success catching several species either by wading out past the dock, or taking out the rowboat. That's all we could have dreamed of! The lake itself, the fishing, and the property were all better than expected. And the cabin was so nice and comfortable and functional, just all around we didn't really have to leave and never felt a need to explore other lakes, etc. Perfect for a couples quiet getaway! Our only unmet preference, if you will, was the neighboring property being rented out by a big family 4 of the 5 days we were there. So that did impede a bit on our intended quiet get-away from people since their dock and driveway were close and visible, but we were able to enjoy ourselves plenty regardless and would absolutely stay again. Tip: Put the keys in the lockbox right after you let yourself in! We didn't realize the upstairs doors open from the inside while still locked, and ended up locking ourselves out, and learned there was no handy spare set of keys. But Chris the owner was very helpful and responsive throughout and we were able to fix the situation pretty quickly. Sorry to bother but thanks again, Chris! Rookie mistake! All around, highly recommend, whether for a couples getaway or if bringing more friends or family to stay in the additional spaces. We can't speak to local attractions, etc, because, well there was no need to leave the property. ?
Very nicely updated and clean cabin with living space on the second floor and plenty of room for kids in the lower finished Garatage. The large private lake is clean and quiet with minimal boat traffic and good fishing. We caught over 80 panfish, crappie, large and small mouth bass and juvenile Northerns in 4 days. The big ones must be there too! The only reason I gave 3 stars for location was the lack of wifi in the cabin and poor cell service, with no 4G or 5G. Along with the astonishing proliferation of delusional Trump, Trump Won and Fraudulent Election signs in the area, tells you all you need to know about many of the Locals.
As a family of four, we really enjoyed our stay at the Garatage! We did not sleep downstairs in the garage portion of the cabin, but it was very convenient for storage of outdoor equipment, shoes, etc. The upstairs was perfect for our family of four. The large windows, ceiling fans, closet space, hooks, and nice furniture were all great features. We enjoyed the beautiful lake with limited boat traffic and private pier. Our kids enjoyed swimming and fishing. We were lucky to see numerous eagles, loons, and deer too! Thanks for sharing this nice cabin on a quiet lake in a great location!
Great spot with a unique home as it is above a garage. Quiet and remote, perfect for a little R&R. The lake has crystal clear water with pretty good fishing. Some of the amenities and descriptions were a little misleading. There are no queen beds. The only true bedroom has a double bed, not a queen. The rest are all futons, twin bunks, and a sofa bed. The owner requests bringing your own linens and towels due to Covid concerns. That was not a problem, except for the sheets we brought were too large. A minor issue and we made due, however, accurate descriptions would be helpful for the next guest. We would probably book it again.
The cottage is very clean and located on a quiet lake. The sandy bottom offers plenty of opportunities to play all kinds of sports, and the sunset was Great. The owner Chris was very responsive and answered all my questions thoroughly and quickly. We will look for opportunities to come back!
We had a very relaxing stay. The place was very clean. The upstairs is comfortable and nicely done. 1 bedroom, 1 full bath a kitchen and a nice great room. The downstairs worked just fine for two teenagers and could handle easily 4-6 people. A couple kayaks the kids enjoyed and games, books, etc. Amazing sunsets from the porch or the dock. Nice new dock and a swimming raft (would be great to get rid of the old dock). Had fun catching little bluegills right from the dock but also caught a 6lb bass and a small northern there. Natural shoreline but perfect sand bottom with gentle slope out. Sand out to about 5 feet depth which is 10 feet off the dock. Very convenient into Eagle River.
We truly enjoyed our stay at the lake house. The area was just so peaceful and relaxing. We loved fishing right off of the pier, kayaking and taking long walks along Bass Lake Road. Lots of fish in the lake. Nice clear lake for swimming and kayaking. The house had everything we needed for our family of four. Highly recommend.
when you rent this house you need to know not for anyone who cant do stairs!! Lots of stairs to get to living area which is on top of a garage. nice living area up there but small. If you have more than 4 people which would take up all sleeping up stairs in house rest would sleep in lower level which is a garage big garage door and all! lots of Spiders and bugs in garage. not at all what we thought it would be! has air window unit upstairs no air or heat in garage just a small electric fire place. great for small family that could all stay upstairs!
