About this house rental
Escape to a private 2 bedroom, bath and a half cottage cottage in the Northwoods on the pristine Eagle River Chain of 28 Lakes. This quiet cabin wakes you up to a beautiful Eastern sunrise that allows you to enjoy your morning coffee while sitting on the pier as the dew dries. From there you can plan which one of the many opportunities you and your family will take full advantage of. For example you may walk to the quaint downtown shops of Eagle River and enjoy shopping, food, parks, or one of the local events taking place. For the avid outdoorsman you can navigate the waterways and fish, ski, swim, kayak, paddle board or just hop from bar to bar and soak in all the drinks, fun, and sun the chain has to offer. Their are trails that allow you to hike, bike, or travel by ATV from our front door to the U.P. This cozy cottage is close to a beautiful waterfall, a full service casino, two go kart tracks and horse back riding stables, along with two local golf courses. However you choose to spend your day it will be nothing short of amazing.

The hosts were very communicative. House was cozy and clean. Property was quiet and had everything we needed for our stay. We got to kayak the river, paddle board and have campfires everynight. Super close to town too. We very much enjoyed our stay here.

The process and communication with Jeff was wonderful!! Listed pictures and information was exactly as described. Close to in town Eagle River but far enough away to still enjoy the quiet of nature. We had eagles right across the river and at points above us in trees. Boat slip was great and even had bumpers for the boat already on the dock. Jeff went above and behind when we had a vehicle issue. I recommend staying in this area and especially at this property!

This cottage was in the perfect location to allow for quick trips to downtown Eagle River, easy access to boat rentals, and a quiet channel connecting to the chain lakes. It had everything we needed to keep everyone entertained with a large yard, grill, firepit, canoe, kayak and paddleboarding. The host was extremely responsive and went above and beyond to make sure everything went great during our stay. Highly recommend!

Beautiful charming property on a lake and five minutes from town

I have nothing but wonderful things to say about our stay. The property is fairly secluded from the neighbors. They have a grills, both charcoal and gas, outdoor table and chairs, fire pit, swingset with some toys underneath, kayaks, a pier to fish off of, and a place to park your boat. They even had a wagon by the garage to carry your supplies from the car to the house.
This is located right on the Eagle River chain very close to the marina downtown.
The hosts are very welcoming.
It was exactly the vacation we were looking for.

We had the best time here. It was a great time to unwind and relax. It was clean and everything our family needed. Our boys loved playing on the outside platform and swings. They also loved to just run around and explore outside! The dock access was perfect for early morning fishing. The boat was also great for evening fishing. We had a bonfire two different nights. The fire pit was perfect, and we appreciated all the wood that was provided. Jeff was very easy to communicate with and answered all of my many questions. He gave us some great activities to do with our kids. We had the best time here, and we would definitely return again.

We were in the area to trail ride. Easy access and great place to come back to for a fire and relax! Couldn’t have asked for a better setup, on the river by a fire! Bonus that we were able to take our dogs!
Props to Jeff and Abbey as great hosts!

My wife and I visited Eagle River to celebrate our 1st anniversary and this was one of the best rental experiences we’ve ever had. Jeff was super communicative and accommodating throughout the booking process and the stay. The property was clean and well kept. It is prefect for a couples weekend get away and could easily accommodate a family with kids.
The location was better than I expected. You get the waterfront, northwoods, feeling with the creature comforts of town just a short drive away. There was a large grocery store & Walgreens about 4 min away. We could get anywhere in Eagle River by 10min or less car ride. Downtown Eagle River was about a 15-20 min walk. We also had our side by side up there and the trails were accessible right from the driveway. It was awesome that we could take the side by side downtown as well. The truck didn’t move much from the day we got there to the day we left. The property would be great for someone with a boat as well, unfortunately we decided against the boat as you never know the Sept weather in northern WI.
Lastly, the amenities the property provides are really great! There were 2 grills, one gas and one charcoal. The fire pit was fully stocked complete with firewood/kindling, chairs, and pokers for s’mores or hot dogs. Kayaks and paddle boards were available. The dock provides a great place to tie up a boat or drop a line and enjoy a morning cup of coffee.
I just want to thank Jeff and family for making our trip memorable! Keep doing what you’re doing and you’ll have many more satisfied customers. We can’t wait to book again!

Jeff and Abby are awesome hosts. Great lines of communication. Great Location. Definitely will return possibly during a different season. All hosts should aspire to be as nice and friendly as they are.
Thank you and we will be back again.

Our family has a rich history with the Eagle River area. My great uncle was born and raised, my dad has been coming up yearly since he was an infant (60+years ago), and his parents and grandparents before that. An annual visit has been tradition for my sister and I since we were infants as well and we continue that as we both grow our families. We are always excited to try out a new rental, and Jeff and Abbey’s place did not disappoint. From the moment of booking, communication with Jeff was top notch and he was quick to respond with answers to any questions we might have. Check in was a breeze and the house was very clean. The bathrooms are updated, kitchen well stocked, and comfortable beds. We didn’t really need the air conditioning, but it was nice knowing it was there if needed. When at the house, we spent most of our time around the amazing fire pit and our young son really enjoyed running in the spacious yard and playing in the sandbox and on the swing set. The location is perfect, with just a quick boat ride you’re cruising the lakes in no time. Eagle watching was great, we saw at least 20 throughout our week plus stay. Our 3yr old had the most success fishing out of any of us, and my dad loved the ability to rent out their aluminum boat. We are hoping our schedules allow us to come up again next year for 2 weeks, and we will without a doubt be booking again!

All that we hoped for, and more, in a 5-day vacation!
Jeff promptly replied to all questions. We enjoyed the privacy, peacefulness, cleanliness of the cottage and the abundance of wildlife. Campfires by the water, excellent fishing and the quaintness of Eagle River shopping just minutes away were all that will bring us back in the future. A great vacation followed by a huge fish fry. Thank you Jeff & Abbie!!

Pretty, Wooded Waterfront Location & Dock w/ Big Yard, Fire Pit, Play Set Close to Town Amenities
My husband and I (plus our dog!) really enjoyed our week in Northern Wisconsin!
We were fortunate to find this place, especially because we were late in planning our get-away. The owners were great at communicating with us, and were eager to help us have a wonderful time in their cute cabin. It was obvious that they are very conscientious people who want their home to be a pleasant place for you to stay. Pride of ownership showed.
Jeff, the owner we communicated with, was on top of every detail, and provided all the information we needed to have an excellent stay at their property.
We were able to check in easily, and found everything in the cabin clean and ready for our week. I really wanted to stay somewhere that had clean bathrooms, and I was NOT disappointed! The bathrooms have been updated, and the powder room had really nice storage for all your toiletries, which was a plus for me. I was also appreciative of the place having a washer and dryer, in addition to all the other amenities you would expect a rental property to have. The tv was nice and worked well, and the furniture, including the couch, loveseat and beds, were comfortable and clean. I think that is particularly important to note, because even though we could bring our dog, you wouldn't have known it was a place that would accommodate pets... i.e. it did NOT smell of animals or LOOK run down by pets, as sometimes happens in rentals.
We were also lucky, and pleased we had access to recreational toys while here, including 2 nice bikes, kayaks, paddleboards and a fire pit (We LOVED the Fire Pit!) with comfortable chairs. There was a great outdoor play set, as well as a nice selection of toys if you happened to have young children in your group.
The yard was huge and provided a great place to play with our dog, who loved the area. We also enjoyed the deer we found wandering the area and property.
We rented the fishing boat from Jeff, and it worked well for us. You can fish and see a lot of different bodies of water from heading in either direction from this cabin, which was nice.
The location was close to town and we found that to be a benefit - very easy to get supplies and enjoy dining out as well as shopping a bit in the cute town of Eagle River. The best of both town and country in our opinion!
We would stay here again. Thank you to the Lang family!

Cute place
This was our first time renting a cabin. It could not have been easier, the owner was very responsive to any questions we had. The cabin is perfect little getaway. The beds are comfortable the location is great. You feel secluded yet your right in town. We had eagles wake us up every morning and a deer family come visit at night. Would definitely rent this place again next time we go to Eagle River.

Ok for a short vacation but Not if a longer one!
Pros: cute house, shabby chic decor enjoyed by the ladies; on the River; close to My Boat Club; clean as a hotel would clean; nice fire pit & wood for use; kayaks/stand up boards there; toys for small children/play set outside nice! Cons: garbage cans at end of drive full upon arrival; cut grass not mulched so tracked inside 1st 2 days; advertised 2 full baths but only 11/2, & shower footing felt unsteady; unsafe stairs railing (wobbly) down to pier/ tree roots do not give steady footing so I needed to “jump” onto pier. SUGGESTION: create a paved/stone pathway from the driveway all the way to the front slab of the house since it’s a long ways to drag luggages in wet/dewy yard which will also create a more cottage like effect.

Great Family Getaway in the Northwoods!
We had an amazing week! The house was perfect for us! Between all the fresh air and the super comfortable beds - we had some of the best nights sleep! We absolutely loved the view every morning and enjoyed using the paddle boards and kayaks. The large yard and open space was perfect for playing yard games/catch. We had fun fishing off the dock and enjoyed s’mores by the campfire while overlooking the River in the evenings. The location was very convenient…only a few minutes from town, yet we still felt nestled in the northwoods, which was the best of both worlds. And…I can not say enough about Jeff, the Owner. He went above and beyond. Super responsive to any questions we had and very helpful. We look forward to staying again!

Great Getaway!
Such an awesome experience all around! This was our first time using VRBO and Jeff surpassed our expectations! Very friendly and kind! We absolutely loved the property and the location! The house was adorable and the beds were so comfortable! The swing set was a huge with with the kids! The weather was too cold to swim so happy we had it! The toys, books, and games in the house were unexpected and very much appreciated. Great location close to town and very easy to find! We would definitely go back! Thanks again😊

gentle slope to the dock, heavily wooded, beautiful property. It rained most of the week but we enjoyed a daily walk and saw a lot of wildlife. Wild turkeys, deer and eagles. Helpful owner who is easy to reach

Relaxing and Very Accomadating
The owners were spectacular. They were very accessible by phone, email, text, and very willing to offer up anything we needed. Had some bad storms roll through and they were able to provide ideas for accommodating us in inclement weather. The place is super clean, and comfortable. The property has great shade but also access to the sun whenever you need it. The fishing is fun off the pier and kids would have a blast here. The property is right on the river and out of town a little bit which was nice. We were able to get away from hustle and bustle but could still jump on the bicycles to go grab a bite. We explored the chain on a pontoon and a fishing boat. It was great experience and there is a lot to see and do. Many restaurants and bars accessible from the water. We had a great time celebrating our 7yr wedding anniversary here. We would come back in a heartbeat!

Great Riverfront property!
I truly have no complaints about our stay. The owners had fabulous communication and were beyond accommodating. The house is neat and clean, and the kitchen well equipped. Beds were comfy! The lot is just beautiful- heavily wooded but plenty of sun to be had down on the pier and shoreline. Nice swingset for the kids, plenty of yard space for playing frisbee or catch, and truly one of the nicest outdoor fire pit areas I've ever seen. It's a no wake area on the river right in front of the house, so it was fun to wave at all the cruisers going by! There's little fish and big fish to be caught right off the pier - we got a real nice musky on the last night, and the kids can pull up little pan fish. My daughter's "good spot" was right in front of the lily pads. Plenty of docking space for a boat, which i do recommend, since it's right on the chain! Since the weather did not cooperate during our stay, it was nice to be so close to the downtown area as well. Lang's Landing does not disappoint!

A nice cozy getaway on the river.
We had a great time. It's just what we were looking for in an up north getaway. It's a nice cozy cottage tucked in the woods on the river. We will definitely stay again in the future.

Beautiful Setting; Great Hosts!
My husband and I planned a long weekend get away where we could just chill. This was the perfect place to unplug! The cabin is easy to find, cozy, and comfortable, within walking distance to restaurants and shops. While the cabin is very nice, the outside areas of the property made it truly special. When we arrived, detailed instructions for use of the cabin and a local bottle of wine were waiting for us. We enjoyed a great fire with a view of the water, enjoying the wine, and watching boats go by. We watched bald eagles across the water and even saw some river otters floating by one morning. There is a lovely patio with a view of the water as well. It was a great place to enjoy coffee in the morning. If you are looking for a cozy place to stay with great outdoor living spaces near Eagle River; this is the one for you.
