Lakefront home with private dock, beach, firepit, playground, deck & game room
About this house rental
Grand View On The Lake Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!' Grand View is a 4,900-square-foot, seven-bedroom, five-bathroom oasis, ideal for families that would love nothing more than to cap a long day of outdoor exploration with a mellow evening watching the sun dip below the tree line. Up to 22 guests can share in the boundless, quintessentially Northwoods adventures that the Grand View private residence offers. Each morning, guests will be greeted by an expansive view of the sun rising over Catfish Lake, part of Wisconsin’s pristine Eagle River Chain of Lakes (the largest chain of lakes in the world). Natural light is ushered in through large picture windows, flooding the home’s open-concept living room, dining room, and kitchen on the main floor. The new day also illuminates countless opportunities to enjoy the waters and woods that define the region. Grand View is steps from Eagle River’s ATV, cycling, and snowmobile trails, ensuring excitement whether the weather dictates bike shorts or bibs. A large dock, a lakeside deck, multiple patios, and a sand beach and shoreline provide ample opportunities to spend the day in, on, or around Catfish Lake. Guests can cruise the chain and hop local lakeside dives, ski across glass calm shorelines and sheltered bays, or hunt the lake’s abundant muskie, walleye, and smallmouth bass. We know how important convenience is and Grand View doesn’t disappoint. This private residence offers an additional onsite trailer and vehicle parking area, a semi-circle driveway for easy unloading, and is situated just minutes from downtown Eagle River. Additionally, Lumpy’s Sports Bar is a short walk down the road, where you can catch the big game on an even bigger screen, shoot some pool with friends, or catch a bite to eat at this perfectly themed Northwoods watering hole. Bringing kids who are either too young or too reluctant to romp on the water or in the forest? Grand View has guests covered with a private swing set, a huge yard, a lakeside firepit, and a foosball table. The home’s theater room and walkout lower level family room with a bar are ideal locations for kids and adults to reunite and wind down after a day of unbridled fun.

Overall the stay was what we were expecting and hoping for. Only issue was the ice melting in the garage. Water went towards the entry door versus to a drain or outside.

Our family had an amazing 10 days at Grand View On The Lake during some beautiful fall color. We had 17 people on the busiest day and everyone loved the spaces and location. It was great to have the upstairs kitchen/living area and the downstairs area which gave all ages room to spread out. The dock/firepit/playset and lake access worked out well for a fishing boat and house boat rental. It was a bonus to discover the rowboat and canoe available as well. All amenities were in good shape and worked well. Parking is tight but using the garage and additional parking up the hill helped fit all the vehicles and trailers. We'll always cherish the memories!

We loved how spacious the house is, and the view of the lake is amazing. Our kids enjoyed the beach area and playground. We loved being able to have our boat there all week. If you have a large group with a variety of ages- this is the perfect place for you. We ranged from 1-91 and everyone loved it!

This home certainly lived up to the expectations raised in the description. Our entire party (we filled the place) were very comfortable, access to the lake was great, indoor & outdoor furnishings were very nice, also close to town and other activities. We could not be happier about this selection!

We arrived late Saturday evening. It was VERY cold in the house, when we first got there (60). We returned up the heat to take the chill off. Lights were on to welcome us in. Music was playing from the direct TV unit. That was nice.
By Sunday, we could not turn off the heat. We called Adam, the manager, to get some help. A repair man showed up to help with the AC/heating system, Sunday evening. He was there nearly three hours and said the unit is too small for the size of house. We needed the AC going because the week was going to be in the upper 80's to low 90's all week. What he did, helped, but not perfect.
Then Friday late afternoon, we heard water trickling somewhere. Upon investigation, the ceiling in the basement bathroom was leaking water and at least four tiles are damaged. Back upstairs, first looks, we thought it was the toilet stool was leaking because it was wet on back. So, we turned off the water valve there. We had run the dishwasher Friday afternoon too. Friday evening we did another load of dishes. More water in the basement Saturday morning. Now we assume the dishwasher has a leak somewhere. Adam had been called Friday late afternoon, but no response before we left at Saturday morning at 9:30am. We left a note for the housekeeper about the problem. I took three pictures of the damaged bathroom and two pictures of the note I left for the housekeeper. The house did present some problems for us, but could get fixed with some time. Good luck and Thank you.

The house was great! Hard to get in touch with someone with a few questions we had before our stay but the house itself was wonderful! Clean and plenty of room for our family weekend up north.

We enjoyed the place, lots of soace, also convenient to stores and to the maple syrup facility we were spending time at. When power went out fue to ice storm on the 23rd, Vacasa and the owner had us move to a nearby rental they had. That lost power later in the evening and they gound a third place for us to move into. Despite the weather events, we had a great time. The owners and Vacasa ‘em went above and beyond yo make our trip enjoyable.

The place is always clean, and has just the right amount of bedrooms, and bathrooms. We appreciate the open kitchen, and living room area for our group. Ending our day at Lumpey's is always a plus, with it being in walking distance.

We were staying here for a family reunion with people from ages 4 to 76. Place is well appointed, very roomy, nicely decorated. Place was clean, nice beds, and kitchen well stocked. With the addition of all the games downstairs, it worked great. The shuffleboard was the biggest hit.
There were two issues we had with the property. There was one downstairs bedroom with no curtains. We added a blanket for privacy. Not a real big deal, but for the rate of this home, we wouldn't expect to need to do that.
The second issue is more of a safety issue. When we arrived on Thursday, the driveway was complete ice. We are all from Wisconsin, and realize this is winter. However, there was no salt, sand or even a shovel to address the issue. On Friday morning, I called the management company to ask for assistance. I never did hear back, so I bought salt myself. When we came back from breakfast, it appeared someone lightly salted the driveway. I added my bag of salt to make it manageable. On Sunday morning, our departure time, we had a snowstorm that came in. I was hoping someone would show up at least with a shovel, knowing the driveway is at an 11 degree pitch. No one arrived. And again, no shovel on the premises to deal with the snow ourselves. Luckily, only 2 of our vehicles were not 4 wd. But those got very stuck. We needed to use tow ropes tied to 4wd trucks to make it up the hill. My mother made the comment, if this property is to be listed as a VRBO in winter, it should be maintained as such. Very easily we could have had a collision with the garage door, trees or worse. Nice place, but either change the snow removal/ice procedures or don't list in winter.
Regards,
Scott

Great get away weekend
The house was beautiful and clean. Property was nice, bon fire was great. The only negatives would be amenities say pool table and there’s not one and rate is misleading once you add all the fees in.

My 95 year old dad came in from Florida for his birthday and we celebrated him up at the lake. He loves to fish so we rented a pontoon and the eleven of us had a beautiful fall week but unfortunately we got skunked on fish. We loved the cabin. The only thing we had trouble with was the grill which looked like it was never cleaned and it wouldn’t heat up and then there was a grease fire. When we called the service line they sent someone to clean it . The response time was excellent! The only other thing was we could of used is better knives ...nothing was sharp enough. This is are second visit on catfish lake ...we rented just down the shore a ways. We would definitely stay again. Thank you for a wonderful stay . Would highly recommend this property.
