Lakefront Lodge w/ Firepit, Private Dock, and Kayaks - Dogs Welcome
Vance Lake Retreat
Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'
Escape to your own private lakefront lodge and treat yourself to full days of paddling, fishing, biking, hiking, and so much more here in Manitowish Waters! As soon as you arrive, you will be greeted by a backdrop of lush greenery and blue waters that will let all of life's worries slip away. Step inside and you will find lake-themed decor, a spacious layout, and plush furnishings to kick back on during any downtime spent indoors. When you need to curb everyone's appetite, the fully equipped kitchen is adjacent to the living area boasting bar seating at the island, all of the major appliances, and plenty of counter space to help you whip up any recipe with ease. When you want to get a bit of fresh air, step out to the covered patio with a cup of coffee each morning, walk down to the private dock on warm summer days, or gather around the firepit as the stars come out! Don't forget to bring the furry members of the family along too, as this home is dog-friendly! If you want to experience over 52 miles of paved bike trails, there's nothing better than the Heart of Vilas County Bike Trail, accessible right from the home.
