Was wonderful! Plenty of space for ten people both inside and out. Great screen porch area. Swim area had a nice sand bottom for the kids. Looking forward to a return visit.
Really enjoyed our stay.From the little things like the fantastic water pressure and water tasting great out of the faucet to the boat and clean house. The decks were set up well as a nice overlook to the lake with a screened porch, Blackstone, Weber, and Bluetooth audio.Trumpeter swans woke us one morning and we watched the bald eagles fly overhead as we fished daily.Bass fishing was excellent, a few crappies, and many small northern. One of us had what we think was a Muskie hit the line, jump out of the water twice as the drag screamed, and eventually went his way after shaking the lure free.The kids really had a blast also feeding the panfish every worm we had.A very quiet lake in early June to relax and unwind.
The property was very clean. Awesome location with great sunsets. The homeowners were easy to get in contact with and very friendly and helpful. Would recmmend
Had 15 people stay and had plenty of room. Power was out for a day after storm but had a generator ready to go and saved the day. Would definitely come back.
Had a great time at the cabin. The lake was quiet, boat was easy to use, and the property was beautiful. The 9 am checkout is a little rough, especially with little ones, but manageable if you just get everything set the night before. Otherwise everything else at the cabin was great. Would definitely go back.
In a word ........ âExcellent"
We totally enjoyed ourselves. The listing says poor TV reception but we found it quite good. The WIFI was also very good.
The fishing was great ! lots of large bass and northern.
It was a great vacation.
We stayed with a total of 15 people & there was more than enough room for all of us. The house is absolutely beautiful. The location right on the lake is breathtaking. The kids had so much fun fishing from the dock & the pontoon, I know it is a vacation none of them will forget. One day we took our boats to Big Portage lake and hardly caught anything. The owners were amazing & answered all questions promptly.
This house was perfect for our family. The well stocked kitchen was fantastic. The house was clean and comfortable. The lake was great for fishing and boating. The pontoon boat and kayaks were a definite plus as was the sandbox for young kids. Beautiful sunsets every night. If you have young children be sure to visit the Storybook Garden Park in town. The only issue we had was the requirement to wash and dry and fold all towels with a 9 am checkout (and a cleaning fee). This was very difficult especially since we had 11 people. Overall great place to stay. Ron was a very helpful and responsive host.
Wonderful place to spend a week with your family. The long paved driveway was a great hit with our young Grandchildren. Bike riding, scooters, strollers and skate boarding. The outside deck has locking gates which was also great for children and our dog. Spent a lot of time under the new covered deck area. The best of all things was the swimming for young children. Sandy shoreline and the depth starts out very shallow, even had a wonderful raft to swim out to. The pontoon boat is a great plus, very nice shape and everything on it works. Updated kitchen and bathrooms are very nice. Just a wonderful location to be at.
We absolutely loved our stay in Land O Lakes. The cabin is quintessential northwoods inside. The kitchen is fully stocked. There are ceiling fans everywhere to keep the air flowing. The view is just splendid! Little Portage lake is very peaceful and the pontoon is a great added bonus. My nephew caught a large northern but otherwise we were catching small panfish. The location is just outside of town, making trips in for last minute or forgotten items very quick. Black Oak lake, the clearest in WI is just down the road. We only wished it was warmer during our stay, and we all wanted to stay longer. We hope to be back one day. Thank you for sharing this gem with my family!
Large place. Very clean. Lots of beds. We had 6 adults and 3 kids and this house was perfect for our family. Kids caught lots of fish off the dock. The lake is very calm and we used the kayaks a lot. The boat runs well. Keep in mind that it does not get covered regularly so it needed to be wiped down when we got there. No big deal.
Check out is 9am and the rules say all towels and dishes need to be washed, dried, and put away before leaving so maybe pack a few towels to use on the morning of check out. Overall the place is great and we will hopefully be back again!
Well kept property that met all of our needs. Owner was very easy to contact and quick to respond to any communication. Great little quiet lake that provided good swimming, and fun fishing for the kids off the pier.
This property had plenty of room for our family of 13. The kids loved the basement area to hang out. The kitchens and bathrooms were beautiful. Everything you could ever need was in the kitchen. There are a lot of steps down to the lake but it was good swimming even for the little kids. The water at the swimming raft was only about 4 1/2 feet deep. The home is only a few miles from town. Nice grocery store there, a cute park for kids. The adult kids in the family enjoyed lunch at an Indian restaurant while my sister and I (the grandmas) took the grandkids for ice cream. You are also only about 20 miles from Eagle River. The property has a wonderful screen room on the deck. Having to check out by 9:00 am is not ideal but we managed. The only thing I didn't like was how damp and musty the basement bedrooms smelled with the very same carpeting I had in the 80's. Overall I would recommend this property.
Very nice place. Love the big deck and fire pit. The pontoon boat was a bonus. The 9:00 checkout time was a bit tough with several families with kids and getting all the towels washed and dried and put away . But we managed. đ
We had a lovely stay. The house was the perfect set-up for our families. We enjoyed being on the lake in the pontoon and 2 kayaks. The 2-level porch was a nice spot to relax both in the morning and afternoon. We caught a lot of fish! The kitchen and the house in general was well-stocked.
Perfect for large Group - beautiful setting - outdoor paradise
Great place for a group. The setting is beautiful and the house has everything you need. We didnât use the boat or spend anytime at the lake as we were there to ride SxS. The guys wished they had brought their fishing poles. The house had games we played at night and a big enough table we could all sit around for meals, games, and doing one of the puzzles. The area is perfect for riding - we took a ride to Eagle River on trails one day and a waterfall ride in Michigan. We only wish we could have stayed longer.
The kitchen is stocked well with things to use. Their welcome packet is a bit daunting with all of the things to do and bring, but when I spoke to the owner, he said we didn't have to worry too much about the soaps and things as they had some there we could use. They ask that you bring and use RV type toilet paper which dissolves quicker for their septic system. They ask that you wash, dry and put the towels away that you use and you have to be out by 9:00 am, so you really either have to get up very early to take showers, or take them the night before and do the laundry the night before.
All in all, it was a nice place and our grand children had a great time fishing and catching lots of fish. They were very small, but that didn't matter to them. We went to Bond Falls one day which is a beautiful waterfall and not that far away. Not a lot to do unless you go into Eagle River other than things on the lake. But they do have a pontoon and kayaks that you can use.
Beautiful home. Was real nice to have use of pontoon boat. Fishing was not the greatest but still enjoyable for little ones to catch smaller fish. Kids really enjoyed swimming and rope swing..
Very nice place! It fit perfectly for our group of 14 for a family vacation. Ron had a natural gas generator installed while we were there and the pilot light went out on the water heater during the installation. I called Ron. He answered on the first ring and walked me through starting the water heater back up again in less than 5 minutes. His response was very quick and accurate. We had no other issues at the property. The property has new bathrooms with beautiful showers, all the items described in the posting and more.
The only clarification want to point out in the description is it says that there is no WiFi. There IS WiFi and it is fast enough to do what you want to do including streaming Netflix, etc. We had no issues at all with it while we were there.
I highly recommend Eagles Nest for a relaxing time in the North Woods!!
Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay! We loved having the pontoon at our disposal and enjoyed the updated home, so many beds! We never have heard so many loons!
After traveling extensively with our four boys throughout the Lower 48 States, Canada and Alaska, we traded in the RV for a Lake House! We want to share our very special home with other families like ours who want to experience the beauty and serenity of the Northwoods.
After looking at several properties in the Land O' Lakes area, this home and this beautiful, serene lake just spoke to us and we knew we had found our Northwoods home!
Little Portage Lake is so serene and beautiful as its a private lake with no useable public boat access. For those who love powersports on the water, there are MANY "big lakes" with public launches within a 15 minute drive, including Big Portage Lake, Black Oak Lake, the Cisco Chain, North & South Twin and Lac Vieux Desert, to name a few in the Land O' Lakes area. Have fun on one of the other large lakes and retire to Eagles Landing for the most calm and beautiful evening sunset you'll ever see!
