House was great with enough room for everyone. Beautiful view from the back deck and the easiest parking I’ve ever had up in the Northwoods

Jim’s Hideaway is very well appointed and welcoming to large groups/families. The kitchen has everything you’ll need for ann extended stay and some things you’ll probably realize you didn’t! The property is very spacious and beds very comfortable. We truly appreciated being able to bring our dogs along and allow them to enjoy vacation with us. We were hoping to snowmobile during our stay, but Mother Nature had different plans this winter 🙄
Close to many restaurants and even better supper clubs!

We very much enjoyed our stay - the house was clean, had great access to the water, an awesome beach, the water was about the clearest I've seen. There were very close neighbors which was not a problem, we just prefer being more remote. The proximity to Minocqua couldn't be beat though!

Property was very nice. Pictures on VRBO were a little deceiving. Maintenance of property.
For Northwoods properties, or any properties in rural areas, I think there should be some mention of water quality, for drinking. Had to buy many bottles and gallons for our group!

We would highly recommend Jim's Hideaway. It was a spacious home with lots of amenities. We had 3 families stay there, and everyone had their own space, did not feel cramped at all! Plenty of supplies included. The access to the lake and the bonus items provided made the trip a huge success. I highly recommend renting the boat for a day! Def a highlight of the trip. Owner was easy to work with and communicative. He was amazing! Quick to respond and act on anything we needed! 10/10 would stay there again!

The location is excellent! Kids could run down to the pier to fish, play on the beach, swim to platform and jump off, adults could join them, those who didn't enjoyed being able to see them from the deck. Dock for our boat so going out fishing was so easy, just get in and go. Nice lake, good fishing. House is comfortable, well stocked kitchen including coffee pods for the Keurig, dishwasher soap and soap for washing machine, very generous hosts. Kayaks and peddle boats were fun. It is an older house but still nice.

Comfortable, spacious homestay
The 8 of us were in the great room 90% of our awake time. We kept the kitchen to cooking and the buffet line. We had plenty of bedroom space. It was really nice to spread out so easily amongst the comfy furniture. We wish we could have stayed longer.

Wonderful Hosts!
Six senior ladies had a fabulous time at Jim’s Hideaway. The home was clean, comfortable and it was stocked with all the necessities. The hosts Linda and Ken are very conscious of making sure are stay was perfect! There’s plenty to do in the Minocqua area but we hardly left. We rented the pontoon boat, had a campfire fished and kayaked. We’ll be back!!

Wonderful home away from home
Wonderful home on low traffic clear lake. We had 7 adults, 4 children and a Golden Retriever. Rented a pontoon from a local business and brought our fishing boat. Docking them both was a little tight, but well worth the maneuvering. Fishing was not good, but we enjoyed the perfect weather for tubing and swimming. Ther beach was excellent. Our 15 month old Golden is an official dock diver! The kitchen and livingroom were roomy and accommodated all of us well. Bring sharp knives with you and some storage containers or ziplock bags. Two closets with shelving were great for storing lots of snacks and beverages. The sun porch was where we stored our yard and water toys and games because the livingroom had lots of seating along with the large dining table. The laundry room was an absolute bonus for drying wet towels from the kids and dog. Lots of yard space around the cottage and behind the garage. WiFi wasn't great, but improvements are in the near future. After trying new locations for our annual family vacation over the past three years, we've found our new spot and have already booked next year. Only 51 weeks to go!
Thank you Ken and Linda, your service is top notch!

Weekend getaway
Our whole experience was great! The house was so spacious and clean. We had two families with us, so really appreciated that while we were in the same house we weren’t on top of each other. We had everything we needed in the kitchen and used the grills several times as well. The kids loved the bunk beds and the sun porch. We enjoyed the fire pit and were lucky enough for clear skies to see tons of stars. We look forward to returning again!
