My family lives all over the country now and we planned to gather in Eagle River (where my dad grew up and we vacationed as kids) together for a long weekend at this rental. I was concerned that there were going to be too few bathrooms and not enough space, but that was not the case at all. This place has a huge living room and kitchen that is perfect for groups and tons of bedrooms and plenty of bathrooms. There is an extra fridge in the laundry room which proved to be necessary. We rented a boat and had it dropped off eighth at the pier and we had an absolutely wonderful weekend around the fire pit and on the lake.
I forgot my kindle in my bedroom and discovered it on my drive home and the housekeeper mailed it to me immediately. Thank you, housekeeper!
We all agreed the house was perfect for our family gathering and would book it again.

We had a wonderful stay with tons of fun and priceless memories! Lots of room for everyone. Being our group was large to the max, freezer space was very tight! Dishwasher only worked well on light wash! Do bring extra dishwasher pods, dish towels and dishclothes! Bring extra washer pods also. The majority of us had to leave a day earlier due to funeral, clinic appt and college commitments! I did feel bad as I did not strip the beds as in one place I read no need and then I also read don’t do any wash as they sanitize and use scent free detergent and then another place they said to wash a load of towels! I did not do any as I did not want them to set in the washer wet. I am not complaining at all , just explaining ! Already looking for next year! 👍

I enjoyed the house and property. However, I accidentally left items and have not received a call back from management. One item is an electronic device I can track and see moving from rental property to rental property, presumably with housekeeping. I am really hoping they will return my items to me.

We had such a nice time here. The place is big and spacious, the photos don’t do it justice. My family continued to tell me all weekend what a nice time they were having!

It is great property and location, good amount of space for a group of 21 people. Hot water capacity can be increased. Some more additional entertainment can be added like hand soccer board , air hockey , snooker/billiards, bullseye dart.

We celebrated my husband's 40th birthday here with 15 people (total). There was more than enough room for everyone. The place is gorgeous and the sunset........ even better. We all stood in awe and watched the sun go down. Truly a place to be together, to enjoy nature, and to have a wonderful time.

We went here for my wife’s 60th birthday celebration. The place was immaculate and the pictures don’t do it justice. Everything was clean and just as advertised… We had 10 adults and six kids… And it easily accommodated us all. We will definitely be back!

Property was nice, house was nice. Geese and geese droppings on lawn and dock were a problem. Water was quite weedy at waters edge so swimming was really only good off of a boat

Our trip to Island View I June 18 to June 25, 2022.
We have been to both Island View I & II before.
LIKED:
1. The outdoor grill had been replaced. Great!
2. The house was generally clean and tidy.
3. You fixed the screens.
4. You fixed the steps.
5. The beds were clean and made.
ISSUES:
1. Several of the dock posts were off; maybe high water floated the off and they didn't settle into the holes at low water. Also many of the dock tie-up cleats were missing.
2. Stove light didn't work
3. We couldn't light the fireplace.
4. Dishwasher utensil rack bottom was broken out – previously reported and maybe fixed.
5. Dishwasher lower rack was missing a roller.
6. Hand mixer was missing.
7. The 2 dish towels are not enough; we brought 4 from home and washed daily.
8. The toilet seat in the first floor bathroom with tub, was slipping sideways. The right side bolt had been replaced, but there was too much "play" in that slot.
Garbage pickup – we were told Fridays, when we arrived on Saturday all containers were full.
The containers at the road were emptied on Tuesday.
But the containers near Island View II were never taken to the road, therefore never emptied.
One of the house-keepers and I dragged the filled containers to the road, because another group was coming. But the containers will not be emptied in time for the new group.
This a major issue that needs to be addressed.

Family Spring Break Trip to Make Maple Syrup
We rented the Grand View on the Lake for our family of 15 (3 generations), for spring break 2022 (Mar 20-25). We traveled from Oregon to have the entire family experience making maple syrup at my brothers sugar shack near Rhinelander. The Grand View on the Lake house was perfect for our purposes, plenty of beds, lots of space in living room upstairs and downstairs, well stocked kitchen. Then on Wed (the 23rd) we had an ice storm. When we got back from the sugar bush, with everyone cold and hungry the power was out. The owner arranged for us to move to the house on Rangeline road (Island View 1). They had turned on the heat so it was warm when we arrived. However, by the time we arrived at about 8:30 there was no power at this house either. Then the owners had us move to a third place with power and heat, both were greatly appreciated by everyone.
They went far and beyond what was necessary to get us a warm inviting place, even though the ice storm was beyond anyone's control. The family had a great time at the VRBO and making maple syrup. It was an adventure for sure, and there will be stories that our children and grand children will tell for years to come. Everyone had a great time, despite the ice and snow.
The owners were amazing, we may not have appreciated how amazing when we had 15 tired and cold people on Wed evening, but are very grateful for the effort of the owners to find us a place to stay on short notice.

Well appointed house with lots of storage space and comfortable furniture. The yard made this place even more fun and special. Every one from the littlest kids to great grandma enjoyed the house, yard, and water. There was a row boat and canoe provided however the oars were so broken and worn that boat was unusable. The canoe paddles were also in very bad shape. There were only 2 life jackets provided for those two boats so for a house able to hold 25 guests at $1500 a night that paddle and lifejacket situation seems woefully inadequate and cheap.

Wish we had more time and days to spend there. Perfect place for a large group and plenty of room and space for everyone and kitchen big enough for everyone to cook their favorite meal to shared. Yard big enough for a little game of football for the boys and while the little one enjoyed the playground and some splashing on the beach. Fishing was on hook too! Over all the place was beautiful and we had everything we need just wish we could of spend a little more time.

The cabin was beautiful! Gave 3 stars because we had some issues. The refrigerator was not keeping our food cold. I called on Friday they said they would send someone out Saturday no one came until Sunday. A lot of our food spoiled and had to throw it out. One of the beds was broken. Closet doors were off track. Wood rail upstairs was loose.

The place was cozy and clean and accommodated our extended family get together wonderfully. We enjoyed the easy access to the lake for ice fishing, the spacious kitchen, the fireplace, the multiple gathering tables, and the outside play area for the grandkids. We are hoping to come back in the summer and explore the lake and area in the warm weather.

13 adults stayed there a couple of weeks ago. Beautiful home on the lake. Easy booking from start to finish. This home would be enjoyable anytime of the year. We were snowmobiling, you can get to trails right from the house. Will definitely stay there again! You won’t be disappointed.
