Northwoods Retreat @ Copper Lake - Minutes from Tomahawk & Merrill

Remember a time when life was simple? A time when children were never bored? A time when they made their own fun catching fish and frogs, splashing in the lake, and catching fireflies? A time when adults could read a book or enjoy a cup of coffee in peace and quiet and not worry what was going on in the world around them?

It exists today! Add in the modern-day comfort, conveniences, and connectivity of the 21st century and that’s EXACTLY what you find when you visit Copper Lake Cabin.

Start your day on the back deck feeling the cool breeze as it rolls off the lake and listening to the birds singing their beautiful songs. Watch as the children or young-at-heart slowly rise and head to the main house from their own private bunkhouse, complete with a private bathroom, and know that you are about to have one of the best getaways of your life.

While life is slower up here and no one has any expectations of you, jump back into the 21st century with our reliable internet and solid cell phone reception. Our advice…tell your boss that you’re heading up North and your connection may be spotty all the while knowing you can jump back in at any moment should YOU so choose!

This cabin 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom (2nd bath only available late spring, summer, and early fall) lakeside cottage on picturesque Copper Lake is beautifully updated. The main floor offers an open concept dining room, kitchen, and living room, perfect for entertaining, as well as main floor laundry and a cozy master bedroom suite.

Enjoy your evening cocktails or morning coffee on the newly constructed lakeside deck. The lower levels offer a TV room, bedroom, and an incredible game room/kids play area that includes foosball, shuffleboard, darts, "old-school" Nintendo, and plenty of family games. If that wasn't enough space for your crew, there is a separate bunkhouse building that offers 5 additional beds, bathroom, outdoor shower, and a sitting area.

Near the lake you find a new dock, swimming raft, 2 tandem kayaks, row boat, and waterfront fire pit. The home is fully outfitted with life jackets, paddles, and fishing poles to keep everyone busy.

This location is remote and private, however it is conveniently located only a short drive to Tomahawk or Merrill where you will find various dining and shopping options. ATV, UTV, or snowmobile directly from the driveway. Trails can bring you all the way up past Rhinelander! The cabin is also less than 5 minutes from Underdown Recreation Area where you will find mountain biking, horseback riding, and cross country ski trails.

We are three women hiking the Ice Age Trail.
We have stayed at this cabin twice while making our way along the Içe Age Trail. It’s a great location for doing the Lincoln County segments. The cabin is clean and cozy with everything we needed for cooking meals. Sitting on the deck with a glass of wine after hiking all day was very relaxing. Thanks for the stay J,C and L

Great Cabin and Lake
We had an amazing time at Copper Lake! The secluded lake was great for swimming and we all loved the game room downstairs. The cabin was very clean and spacious enough for our two families. Thanks for a great stay!

A truly special place
Our stay at the lake house was incredibly relaxing, and the kids had a blast! The outdoor activities and family-friendly options were fantastic. The only suggestion we have, especially as a family that enjoys cooking, would be to add more microwave-safe plates and bowls, as most of the current ones are plastic. Additionally, a few more cooking tools, like a ladle for soup, would be helpful. That said, we made do with what was available and thoroughly enjoyed our time there.

Nice Lake House
Our group was comprised of three adults and three teens. We especially appreciated that the property had paddleboards, kayaks, and a row boat so that everyone who wanted to be on the lake had a way to enjoy it. The teens slept in the bunk house and that worked well. The area is quiet and 15 minutes from a grocery store for supplies. Very nice spot for a family get away. We did think the checkout procedures (cleaning out refrig, doing dishes by hand) to be more than we anticipated, especially since the original booking included a cleaning fee.

Winter Weekend Getaway
The house was accommodated our larger group well and the kids loved having their own cabin all to themselves. We spent most of our time in town for some events nearby, but the house provided plenty of amenities to keep us busy in our downtime and was perfect for our needs. Would stay again!

We rented the house to stay in for our daughter's wedding. It was a beautiful location and home away from home. Management was prompt in answering questions. We won't hesitate to rent from here again. Highly recommend this property.

Fall Getaway
The home was even better than it showed in the pictures. Worked perfectly for my group. Kids loved the bunkhouse and the game room downstairs. It was a cool fall weekend so we didn't get in the water but the property was very pretty and full of colorful leaves. We had everything we needed and would love to return.

Beautiful house by the lake
The house is exquisitely furnished and decorated, and it is also fully equipped inside and outside. My kids enjoyed the kayaks and row boat, as well as fishing in the lake. Beds are very comfortable and everything is very clean. I highly recommend this property.

Joint Family Vacay Fun!
We stayed here with another family, so 8 total (4 adults & 4 kids under 15) for a joint family vacation and we had a wonderful time! Everyone enjoyed the paddle board, kayaks & swim raft. The kids spent most of their time jumping off the swim raft & liked sleeping in the bunk house. And the game room was perfect when the rain came! We're already talking about a return trip!

Great lake retreat with great amenities surrounded by towering trees
This property provided my family with the opportunity to comfortably stay in a quiet and accommodating space. Rooms and bedding were well planned out and the guest house provided myself even more of a welcomed retreat. The kayaks, row boat, diving platform, game room and fire pit were everything I was looking for to help keep everyone entertained. Inside and out everyone is well detailed including the outdoor shower-such a great experience! Would love to stay again!

Family Fishing Trip
Our scheduled stay was from Saturday, July 22 to Saturday, July 29. We left on Friday to go home because the power went out Thursday evening and was predicted to be off until late Saturday. The property was great! The home was clean and stocked well! The dock was very nice. Use of the boat, kayaks and paddle board was so much fun! We had great fishing! Loved our stay here! Hope to return sometime! Thanks for sharing your beautiful home!

Super Clean and Well Stocked
We had 4 adults and 3 'tweens' in our group and had space for everyone with the cabin room included in the rental. Kitchen and the entire house is very well stocked, there wasn't anything we wanted that we did not find. I should have brought my 'fisherman' outboard for the row boat so we could have done more on the lake.

Mid Summer Family Getaway
The property was more than we expected. We loved everything about the location, the solitude, and the amenities. The property was equipped with everything (and more) than we expected. The bunkhouse was a great addition for the kids and the snoring dads. We extended our stay becasue we were having a blast at the property. The property manager was very responsive and accommodating. We are all looking forward to visiting again.

An amazing weekend!
We had such a great experience while at the cabin. The entire place was clean and ready upon our arrival. They had remedies set up to help our stay be better than we could imagine. Our family loved sitting outside on the back patio together. We also enjoyed the living spaces that let us watch movies and play games during the rain. Overall, we can’t wait to come back. This was a great step out of our ordinary everyday lives, and we can’t recommend it enough!
