PETS: We are dog-friendly! We allow a maximum of 2 dogs for $20/day (a max of $120 per stay). Just select the pet option when booking your stay.
RIVER: Head down the forest path to the private dock on the river. Fish from the dock or launch the 2 kayaks or pedalboat and head out on a river adventure. The Wisconsin River is the backbone of the state, and the river flows directly through Rhinelander, providing ample opportunity for canoeing and kayaking. The river is dam-controlled, so water levels remain constant throughout the year. The Wisconsin River possesses some of the world’s best freshwater game fish like walleye, sturgeon, and northern pike. Weedy areas are also home to big panfish, largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, and channel catfish.
AREA: The property is conveniently located just 10 minutes north of downtown Rhinelander and the many restaurants, stores, and recreational opportunities that the area offers. The Hodag festival grounds are less than 5 minutes down the road. We are also minutes from countless lakes and the Northern Highland State Forest, which has over 236,000 acres to explore.
PLEASE NOTE: the gas fireplace in the main room is NOT operational. Coming in late Fall 2024, we will be adding a wood-burning stove to replace the fireplace.
