Welcome to Cattail Cabin, one of four pet-friendly lakefront stays from O’Connell Cabin Co. This is the Lower Holly Lake cabin built for families who want a fishing boat at the dock and a little extra fun downstairs. Built in 2018 on the shores of Lower Holly Lake in Stone Lake, Wisconsin, it is an open-concept retreat with rustic charm and modern comfort.



A few things to know first:



-Parking is limited to 4 vehicles. The driveway is the only place to park, and it is not very big.

-We welcome up to 2 dogs. The pet fee is $150, and we ask that you declare pets on your reservation.

-If you are thinking of bringing your own boat, ATV, or snowmobile, get in touch so we can talk logistics. The road in is tight, and so is the driveway.



What makes Cattail Cabin different:



-Sleeps 8 in 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, with a finished walk-out basement. About 2,000 square feet. The third bedroom is an open loft — great for kids.

-A fishing boat with trolling motor is included, plus 2 kayaks, a canoe, a pedal boat, and a lily pad. On a quiet midweek day, Lower Holly Lake can feel like it is yours.

-The walk-out basement is the game room: ping pong and an arcade setup for rainy afternoons or late nights.

-A gas fireplace on the main floor, a screened-in porch, and a large deck looking out over 48-acre Lower Holly Lake.

-Full kitchen with a center island and a dining table that seats 8.



Location and the outdoors:



Cattail Cabin is about 10 minutes from the town of Stone Lake — pubs, antique shops, a micro-brew/coffee house, and a wine bar. Hayward is about 20 minutes north for food, shopping, and year-round events. The cabin sits on a snowmobile and ATV route, and the lake is a quiet spot for kayaking, canoeing, and fishing for Northern Pike and panfish. The CAMBA trail system is a drive away if you want bigger mountain-bike mileage.



Also included: firewood for the fire pit, a Blackstone gas griddle, high-speed internet, Smart HDTVs, a king bed in the master, laundry, and a collection of books and games.



Cattail Cabin is the O’Connell Cabin Co. stay for families who want the boat, the games, and a smaller group on Lower Holly Lake.

    Our second time staying and just as great as the first! The location is perfect for access to Hayward and Stone Lake, great fishing for all ages right off the pier, and plenty of activities if you catch a rainy day!

    We have stayed at O’Connells cabins several times and always have a positive experience. The cabin is exceptionally clean and well appointed. The beds are very comfortable and the linens are soft. We enjoyed the lake toys that were provided and had bonfires with the wood all stacked and ready for us. We will be definitely be back for more cabin fun!

    This was our families second stay at Cattail Cabin. We stayed here last year at the same time and had such a great time we booked it again for our spring break. Everything in the cabin is so well thought out and it has such a comfy and relaxed feeling. Brad the owner is very responsive if you need anything. We will come back for a third time for sure.

    When we walked in to the cabin we immediately knew that we found the perfect place for our Birkie vacation. The whole cabin felt so warm and comfortable and it had everything we were looking for. And when we looked out the windows, the views of the snow covered lake and grounds were so peaceful and beautiful. Also, our communication experience with Brad was outstanding. He was so friendly, professional. prompt, and thorough which helped to make our trip a complete success. We are looking forward to our next stay! Thanks Brad!

    Beautiful cabin inside and out. Absolutely exquisite! Host very congenial and responsive. Loved watching sunsets and listening to nature on the dock bench. Fish feeding and jumping, muskrats swimming. Loved the game rooms downstairs on rainy days. Beautiful fall leaves, too. Definitely worth a return trip.

    I can't say enough great things about our stay at this cabin. It went above and beyond our expectations. The cabin has everything you need. The deck and screened in porch were perfect for morning coffee and just enjoying the peace and quiet. The blackstone was perfect for cooking our meals. The cabin was cozy and very comfortable although we spent most of our time outdoors. The lake was beautiful and very quiet. We did lots of kayaking and fishing. Lake access was very easy and the kayaks were in great condition. We caught some of the biggest fish we have ever caught! We visited at the perfect time as the leaves had begun changing and the views were beautiful. Brad was the perfect host and we appreciated his quick responses to our questions and the wonderful communication throughout the whole process. We are looking forward to returning to this property in the future!

    This was a terrific place to stay for our anniversary getaway. For a little cabin on the lake it had everything! We loved the screened in porch for morning coffee. The kitchen had everything to make a nice breakfast. The bed was comfortable. The entire cabin was very clean. We look forward to coming again!

    We loved the cabin! It was clean well appointed and everything was good quality! (Sofa, grill, laundry, even the hair dryer.) Lake is big enough to get a good workout kayaking and small enough to not be overpopulated. Most of the time we had it all to ourselves! Ping pong was a hit and the guys loved the golden tee golf game. Secluded yet close to town. The perfect cabin getaway!

    Great cabin. We loved kayaking on the lake and enjoyed eating out on the deck and listening to the loons. My son enjoyed the video games in the basement.

    We truly had an exceptional experience! Communicating with our host was easy and prompt. The cabin was neat and clean with all the conveniences of home and many more. The lower level game areas were fun and let all of us enjoy being kids for a few days! So glad we stayed here

    We had a wonderful time at the Cattail Cabin! The fireplace was toasty, the outdoor walks were relaxing, the cabin was very clean and we all LOVED the games. Brad was very communicative so we felt we could reach out if we needed anything at all. But, everything went so smoothly that we really didn't need anything. Thanks for the wonderful stay!

    My husband, two sons (16 and 18) our dog and I spent two nights at this gem. Our sons arrived about a half a hour before we did as we picked up groceries in Hayward (about 20 minutes away). They had already started playing ping pong before we arrived. Once we arrived, the canoe and kayaks were put in the water and were used the rest of our trip. We caught bass, bluegills and northerns and enjoyed the fall colors that surrounded the grounds. The setting is quite private, located at the end of a dead end road. We walked our dog several times and only encountered friendly neighbors. We prepared all of our meals there, and the kitchen had what we needed. The kids slept in the loft and enjoyed it. We slept in the master bedroom (king bed) and were very comfortable. The walkout basement was great for ping pong. We spent a LOT of time playing. If you rent here, be sure to get out on the water! The side of the lake that the cabin is on is so beautiful this time of year (early October) with the maples and oaks. I couldn’t stop taking pictures from the canoe when I should have been casting. Communication was fantastic with the owner. He provided all of the answers before we could even think of questions! Also, I had read a couple of comments in past reviews about wi-fi. We had no issues with the wi-fi, and our cell coverage was strong. So if you’re looking for a cozy, clean cabin on a lake that’s easy to navigate, don’t hesitate to book here!
