WHISPERS OF THE WILDERNESS - Minocqua Area Lake Home

We had an amazing long weekend at Whispers of the Wilderness! We’d love to have our annual girls’ trip at this house again in the future. The house was cozy, clean and had everything we needed. The property is beautiful and private.

We had a fantastic week at the cabin. It was well appointed and the owners made the process easy. The master bed was great. The location is phenomenal. With only a handful of cabins on this part of the lake we really felt like it was secluded. Lots of wildlife to see. We look forward to renting this one again!

We had planned on using Whispers as a home base to tour the area. From the moment we walked in the house, my wife and I had the exact same thought. Why go anywhere?!! Between the great view of the lake, welcoming fireplace, and charm we decided to hang out and simply unwind. We found the place immaculately clean, and staged as if the owners expected special guests! Tonya was quick to respond to our questions and very accommodating as well. Whispers is a charming well appointed cabin, in a private wilderness like setting, that exceeded all our expectations. We are already looking forward to our next stay! Thank You Brandon and Tonya for a wonderful weekend! And for opening your house to us. Dave and Cj.

Very clean. Had everything we needed. Were able to fish a lot and did some swimming off the floating pier. Close to lots of things to do.

Family had a nice 4th fishing and boating on a quiet and private lake atmosphere with lots of amenities near by.

One of the best rental properties we have stayed at! Everything was amazing! Beautiful scenery and the fishing was awesome! Would definitely recommend staying here. So peaceful and quiet!

My family of 5 (boys 18, 20, 22) and my SIL and MIL loved the peace and quiet of the property. We had everything we could have wanted - rowboat, canoes and especially the kayaks and stand up paddle board - to explore Wind Pudding Lake. My sons loved the idea of walking on the floating bog structures, and paddling in the lilies. I didn't attempt a bog walk, but thoroughly enjoyed the serenity of cruising along in my kayak and just enjoying the birdsong and sunshine. (One note: this is a muck bottom lake, and the area where you take the water craft in an out will steal your shoes if you aren't careful - bring a pair you don't like or go barefoot!) The house was VERY well appointed - we had everything we needed to cook most of our meals on site, and enjoyed watching movies and shows on the Amazon Fire stick in the evenings when we weren't out enjoying a fire down by the water. I'm not sure if the bog has some effect on it, but I have NEVER stayed on a lake in more than 35 visits to the Northwoods with less mosquitos! We tried fishing in multiple locations (except the eastern lobe of the lake - the bogs appeared to have shifted and closed the passage) in the lobe of the lake where the house sits, but the best was just off the dock. We caught an abundance of blue gills and a few bass. Even the blue gills put up a good fight, and we were able to enjoy a fish dinner one night. As remote as the house is (be aware the last part of the driveway is unpaved - take it nice and slow!), we were only minutes away from Minocqua for easy shopping, eating out and visiting some of the local attractions. This was my 3rd VRBO rental in the Northwoods, and by far the best. If you need to get away, relax, do some paddling, catch a few fish and catch up with your family, this is the perfect place.

We absolutely loved it. The peace and quiet, wildlife, and accommodations were great. We will be staying again many times.

Our adult family of six recently stayed for the week. The cabin is at the end of the lane and very private and secluded from the other cabins on the lake. It felt as if the lake was all ours, yet we were close enough to drive in to Minocqua for all of our adventures. We will definitely be back.

Cabin was perfect! Very nice decor and everything needed was there. Very quiet and great night camp fires with visiting deer. Used the kayaks and canoe. Very fun on the small lake.
