We had a great stay in Minocqua. The automated check-in information never arrived, so I had to communicate directly with the owner. She was AWESOME! She apologized for whatever happened to the automated info that I should've received. She also got me all of the missing information very quickly. The house was perfect for two couples. The Minocqua area never disappoints. Don't hesitate to book this one!

Upon arrival, the cottage was very clean and smelled pleasant. We felt pretty confident that it is cleaned well between renters. It was more contemporary than the last cottage we rented, which was nice and the price point reflected it. The colors were bright. It’s a good location, close to everything. Some nicer seating outside would be great. There were two lawn chairs folded up in the storage area outside with the firewood that had definitely seen their better days. Generally, we like to have a couple of nice chairs we can carry out to the dock and sit and relax. The paddle boat and Jon boat need some attention. My son took the paddle boat out and got stuck when the rudder stick came off and couldn’t steer. Someone had tried to rig it together with tape. I should have looked it over better before he took off with it because I ended up having to go out on the jon boat to bring him back bc he couldn’t steer it. The jon boat was leaking from someplace too. The kitchen faucet has a reverse osmosis filtration system, which was great. Unfortunately, there’s a noticeable sulphur odor in the other water spigots when you’re showering and/or brushing teeth or doing dishes. Overall, an enjoyable weekend! For the price point, I think it could be better as it pertains to the water and outdoor seating and laundry (no washer/dryer). I’d recommend bringing some outdoor chairs and bedding of your choice, if able. The bedding was too warm (for us) and kept popping off the mattress.

The cottage was clean, comfortable, and very well equipped. Fishing was great, and we enjoyed using the paddle pontoon boat. Short drive to shopping and restaurants. Would highly recommend.

Very clean, appliances worked well, great fire pit.
