Recent Northwoods guest reviews

Excellent location - peaceful cool cabin nestled in the tall trees right on Rest Lake. We were visiting during the really warm weather in July and the ceiling fans kept the cabin nice and cool at night. Bed was firm and comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked and cabin was a great base for me and my husband. We rode our bikes on the paved trails to Boulder junction and Mercer. We love Manitowish waters and the restaurants in the area did not disappoint. We went to the Aberdeen Inn, Blue Bayou and Meggie’s and had wonderful food. We had everything we needed for a great week in the Northwoods - highly recommend Carols Rest lake cabin.

The lake was private and we found ourselves the only ones on the lake for two days. Only saw two boats on the water over 3 days. Very hard to find that in peak months. Plenty of fish right from the pier if you have young ones who get bored waiting to catch something. No problem catching fish. The water was what you would think of for an "up north" Wisconsin lake. The only thing I would make aware of is if your going in the hot months the house gets very warm. We had a portable a/c unit, so it wasn't that bad for us. The house was a little difficult to find, all gravel narrow roads. All in all due to the lack of other people around it was great.

This is a beautiful condo with nice furnishings and a rustic feel. It was very clean. Rooms are spacious and comfortable. Really nice view off the deck. The kitchen was well stocked.

What to do near your Northwoods vacation rental

There are so many places to visit in Wisconsin’s Northwoods, it’d be impossible to list them all here! However, there are some definite highlights that all visitors have to hit.

The Eagle River Chain of Lakes is one of the area’s most popular attractions, home to fishing, kayaking, canoeing, paddle boarding and more. One of the best ways to explore the lakes is to take a cruise down the water on a double decker pirate ship with Pirate’s Hideaway. Lovers of fishing can also visit the National Freshwater Fishing Hall of Fame, and learn about some of the world’s best anglers.

If you’d like to stay on land, there are countless hiking options, and winter visitors can enjoy miles of groomed snowmobile trails. If you’re looking for a souvenir or a bite to eat, small towns such as Eagle River, Phelps, Manitowish Waters, and Minocqua are home to local shops and restaurants. Book today to find your dream vacation rental in the Northwoods of Wisconsin.
