Welcome to your ideal Northwoods getaway — a freshly updated lakefront cabin on the shores of Catfish Lake, part of the world’s largest chain of lakes in Eagle River, WI. With flat, sandy frontage, direct lake access, and stunning lake views, this spacious and comfortable retreat is an ideal escape for families and outdoor enthusiasts alike. Spend sunny days swimming, paddling, grilling, and playing yard games, or simply relax and take in the peaceful setting.

During the warmer months, the cottage offers a variety of activities for guests to enjoy. With a private dock and easy lake access, you can swim or take advantage of the kayak and paddle boat available for guest use. The yard is perfect for playing games like washer toss, ladderball, yard Yahtzee, and outdoor Jenga. The spacious shared patio offers comfortable seating and beautiful lake views, making it a perfect spot for morning coffee or sunset dinners. There’s also a shared fire pit and a large grassy lawn for additional relaxation or play. For those who enjoy outdoor cooking, a gas grill is provided.

Inside the cabin, you’ll find a fully stocked kitchen with everything you need to cook and dine in comfort. The living area is cozy and inviting, with a large picture window that overlooks the lake, allowing natural light to fill the space. There’s plenty of room for board games and indoor activities, ensuring a fun experience for everyone.

While the cabin is perfect for spring, summer, and fall, it is just as inviting during the cooler months. The nearby Nicolet National Forest offers beautiful hiking opportunities year-round, along with vibrant fall colors and peaceful winter scenery. Snowmobile and ATV trails are easily accessible, and ice fishing is a popular activity on Catfish Lake once it freezes over. After a crisp day outdoors, you can cozy up inside and enjoy the quiet, natural beauty of the Northwoods in any season.

Located just minutes from downtown Eagle River, this cottage is close to restaurants, shops, and coffee spots. You’ll also find local breweries, ice cream stands, and seasonal festivals, including farmers markets and live music. Boat rentals and supplies are available at the nearby marina, ensuring you have everything you need to make the most of your time on the water.

Things to know:
As of March 2025, this cottage is under new ownership! The new owners have refreshed the space with updated furniture, new bedding, and thoughtful décor throughout, giving the cottage a brighter, more welcoming feel. They've also addressed past guest feedback. Experience the upgraded comfort and care in every detail!

Great place!

The cottage was great for our family of four.. plenty of room. The kitchen was fully function-able with all the utensils you would need. We booked the place because of the dock as we bright our boat. Such a nice convenience. Overall, a great place.

Peaceful!

This was a very peaceful cabin on the lake! We were there with two of our adult children. They were happy to get their own rooms. It had many of the items we needed and was comfortable. The internet and TV seemed to work fine. The kids enjoyed the paddleboat and we were able to enjoy some time on the water with a friend's pontoon boat. It is a beautiful area! It is close to Eagle River which is a cute little town. The only big issue we had was the air conditioner stopped working properly the second night so my husband didn't sleep well that night. Other than that, it was a pleasant stay. It was easy to check in and check out. I am glad no one was in Cottage B. That may have been a little close for what we were wanting.

Eagle River Cabin on the water

Older but very well maintained. Nice Wisconsin styled decor. Enjoyed watching lake activity right out the living room window. Soft beds, fluffy towels, kitchen dishes well stocked, everything needed was available. Clean facility. Everyone was enjoyed the atmosphere and were comfortable. I did not need to directly communicate with anyone. Easy to book online, check in/out. Plenty of email communications.

2nd time staying at Catfish Cottage

This is a nice clean quiet place to stay with a great view of the water. We find it a relaxing place to hang out after a long day of fishing the many nearby lakes. As a bonus there's a restaurant / bar at the end of the driveway.

Beautiful lake front cabin

We came here to ride side by sides. Was a beautiful cabin on the lake. We enjoyed everything about the cabin and had camp fires every night. Beds were comfortable. Only problem we had was the grill needed to have grease tray cleaned. We had steaks and potatoes on the grill and it all caught on fire

The cabin was very clean, the kitchen was well stocked, and there was plenty of linens for showering. The only negative was the AC unit couldn't keep up with the heat. That being said we had record heat this weekend.
