THE ARRIVAL
Big Pine is a secluded getaway yet so close to everything that once you reachthe heart of Minocqua, you're just a short distance to our doorstep. We have a large circle driveway with plenty of parking. The full log home has been updated and improved under new ownership reflecting a desire to provide our guests with a special vacation experience.

THE MAIN FAMILY LEVEL
The main level of the home is where the family will congregate. There’s a large kitchen with stainless steel appliances (including dishwasher) and a breakfast bar and all the amenities for cooking delicious lakeside dinners. The dining room leads to a screened-in porch where you can watch the sunrise, sip your morning coffee, read a book or enjoy a late afternoon cocktail overlooking the lake. The large living room has a river rock hearth with wood burning stove , a 50 inch flat screen TV (with Roku containing Netflix, Amazon Prime, and Utube Streaming TV), and plenty of windows to soak up the panorama of the lake and surrounding woods. A ½ bath and full laundry facilities complete the main floor. Most necessities are provided, including linens, blankets, pillows, towels, and initial paper products. There is a fully outfitted kitchen with dishware, pots, pans, and cooking utensils. There is an outdoor grilling patio with a charcoal Weber grill.

The upper level has three bedrooms and carpeting throughout. The master bedroom overlooks the lake and has a queen-size bed, dresser, large closets and separate dressing area. There is a smaller TV in the master with Roku with Netflix and Amazon Prime. The second bedroom also has a queen-size bed, walk in closet, dresser and views of the lake. The cozy third bedroom has built in Twin XL beds and plenty of closet space.
The owners remodeled the upstairs bathroom with custom cabinet, solid surface sink and tiled, glass walled shower in 2022.

The lower level has a set of bunk beds and a sitting area. A full bathroom with a spacious 2022 remodeled tile shower and vanity is perfect for after-lake clean-ups. This level leads directly to a covered cement patio and steps to the lake.

    We had a wonderful week at this beautiful property! The check in process was simple. It had all of the amenities you could need and more. Enjoyed our morning coffee on the cozy screened in porch. Nice sand beach area, great fishing, relaxing dock to watch the eagles and loons. Highly recommend a stay at Big Pine!

    If you are looking for a clean, non hassle, everything you need at a VRBO place in Minoqua this is the place. We had wildlife to view daily, quiet off the road parking, clean and comfortable linen/bedding, our 2 year old grandson had plenty of driveway to run and collect acorns, the flowers and grounds were well maintained. We truly enjoyed our stay and will be back. The owners are so nice and accomodating we hated to leave. Nadine / Bryce

    I stayed at the house for week with my husband, my two kids, and my sister. We loved the location because it was the perfect balance of time in nature (getting away from it all) and also proximity to stores and activities. We did the animal park and the zip lines and had a great time. Pam was a fantastic host - very responsive to questions and very helpful in helping us figuring out the details of the property. The home was well appointed with all the details taken care of, very clean, and exactly as represented in the listing. Thank you!

    This is a lovely spot on Shish. We are very familiar with the lake and have rented several properties. This one is a favorite! Wonderful, sandy waterfront, private yard, quiet and protected part of the lake and view of the island. Great stay... can't wait to return!

    Beautiful home. With plenty of space for family to spread out. It had everything we needed for our stay. The boat dock was great and easy access to park our pontoon. Great communication from owners made arrival and check in easy.

    This property is beautiful and as advertised and had everything we could want for our vacation. Our stay at Big Pine was wonderful and I really wish we had more time to enjoy the lake and the area and the canoe and kayaks at the property. We brought our boat and were able to go fishing as well as do some tubing with the kids. We caught numerous bluegill, perch, largemouth and smallmouth bass. I would like to return to learn the lake and fish locations better. The receptacle near the dock was great for conveniently charging the boat overnight. The cabin was very comfortable and clean with plenty of space for everyone to enjoy time together and time apart. Pam and Bruce were very helpful and responsive before, during, and after our trip and were a joy to talk to.
