Northwoods Trailside Getaway

Quiet, peaceful custom built chalet style cabin minutes from Minocqua. Great location for a Northwoods retreat. Snowmobile and atv from cabin, walking distance to the Minocqua Park Complex, one mile from Wildwood Wildlife Zoo, bicycle trails, and minutes from the Minocqua chain of Lakes.

Beautiful cabin in the woods

We stayed 3 nights and are planning on coming back next year and stay even longer, the kids loved the loft. We enjoyed all the amenities even tho our weekend was rainy at times we still had a great time in the cabin and enjoying the screen porch. The cabin was clean and we loved seeing the deer walk right by as well. Highly recommend anyone staying in the area to book this place!

Great cabin

Clean, well maintained cabin. Great communication. No issues. Only gave a 4 for location because it wasn’t as secluded as we would like but it’s still a good location right off the trails.

Beautiful Cabin

This was our second time to stay at the Northwoods Trailside Getaway. This stay was as wonderful as the last. Cliff and Lanie have thought of everything you could need. From a fully stocked kitchen to the split wood that they have just waiting for you to start a fire in the fire pit.

Perfect Getaway

Conveniently located near everything Minocqua has to offer, this getaway cabin sparkles inside and out! Every room is spacious and beautifully appointed, with views to the outdoors where deer are almost always seen. Cliff and Lanie are the perfect hosts...hands off, but there if you need them. We thoroughly enjoyed every minute of our stay.

Top Notch

This property is very nice & feels like quality construction. It also is perfectly decorated and spacious enough for 2 people or a small group. Most importantly for me, there's a lot of natural light and adjustable inside lighting and super clean 😁

Absolutely Beautiful Place

Pictures don't do this beautiful cabin justice. The owners have taken every detail into account in putting together this amazing retreat. Fully equipped kitchen made it so easy to whip up meals, stocked firewood so that an evening around the fire was the perfect end to the day, decor was perfect, beds were comfortable, parking was easy. It really was the perfect place for our little weekend getaway! Thanks so much for sharing with us.

Fourth of July Get a Way

Cliff met us and showed us the property. This is a plus. Because after you travel, it is nice to have someone show you where things are located and how things work. Their cottage is well thought out with every thing we needed. Personally, I loved the screened in porch and listening to the wind wave through the tall pines. Overall, the best VRBO we ever stayed in. Thank you

House is amazing

The property is gorgeous, pond out back is so pretty in the mornings and very peaceful. Landlord may contact you often and very early in the morning. He Lives close by and may stop by unannounced. We had another family staying in the area and they visited for lunch or a bonfire and we were informed after the stay that we could’ve been evicted. He will check on you if more than six people are there on the property, not staying over, just on the property, so be aware.

Perfect family weekend getaway!

Stayed for a long weekend with my husband and 7yo son. Loved the close proximity to Minocqua - Trig’s grocery was 4 min away and perfect for picking up whatever we wanted to cook in the gorgeous kitchen that had all the utensils, pots and pans we needed! The cabin was immaculately clean and comfortable, and we loved looking out in the mornings to spot deer and turkey. Cliff kindly met us at the property to show us how everything worked and Lanie dropped off newspaper to start a fire after we mentioned interest in using the fire pit. They truly thought of everything to make us comfortable as guests! What a delightful place to spend a long weekend away from the city.

Perfect getaway

We stayed 3 weeks and from the time we entered till the time we left it was unbelievably the best time we have had up in Minaqua..the cabin was very clean and very comfortable. The screened in back porch was our favorite place to have coffee in the morning and watch the wildlife . Triplet fawns and mama passed through . It is close to Minaqua and excellent restaurants, or if you prefer to grill at home it comes with a very clean grill . The hosts are fantastic and super friendly, we consider Cliff and Lanie friends , and their dogs Mr Oliver, Ruby, and Marley. Miss you all.

Retirement snowmobile weekend

We booked our stay after some brief questions with the host. He was super accommodating and answered all of our questions quickly. When we got to the property, it was more beautiful than the pictures. Every little detail has been considered and completed. The property is right on the snowmobile trail and accommodated our two trucks and trailers easily. Cliff came over to greet us and showed us his favorite stops along the trails so we knew where to go. This rental is top notch in every aspect. We will definitely be back. Thank you so much for a really wonderful long weekend!
