About this property

Welcome to Cattail Cottage, your cozy retreat nestled on the shores of Lower Holly Lake, in Stone Lake, Wisconsin. This open-concept cabin, built in 2021, boasts a perfect blend of modern comfort and rustic charm.

First, some quick notes:

Parking -- We kindly ask for a 4 vehicle limit. The driveway is the only place to park and it is not very big :-).

Dock Install/removal -- Our dock for Cattail Cottage is located within short walking distance from the property. Check out the illustration we have in the photo gallery that shows where the dock is! We usually take the dock out of the water late October (we wait as long as we can) and we usually put it back in around mid/late April (we try to get it in as soon as we can). If you are looking at dates during either of these times of the year, don't hesitate to reach out to confirm status before booking.

Cabin Highlights:

• Spacious Living: With 4 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, and a finished walk-out basement, this 2,000 sq ft haven comfortably sleeps 10 guests. The cozy ambiance, complemented by central air and heating, ensures a delightful stay year-round.
• Scenic Views: Take in the fantastic view of 48-acre Lower Holly Lake from the large deck or unwind in the screened-in porch. The beauty of the lake is right at your doorstep.
• Entertainment Galore: The fully finished walk-out basement is a game-lover's paradise, featuring a ping pong table. For those seeking relaxation, the gas fireplaces on the main floor and in the basement provide warmth and charm during the winter months.
• Full Kitchen: The complete kitchen, with a spacious center island, is a chef's dream. The dining table, seating 10, is perfect for shared meals and memorable conversations.

Perfect Location:

Cattail Cottage is ideally situated just a 10-minute drive from the charming town of Stone Lake. Explore pubs, antique stores, a micro-brew/coffee house, and a wine bar, all contributing to the town's unique charm.

For those craving more excitement, the bustling town of Hayward is a short 15-minute drive away, known for its food, shopping, year-round events, festivals, and tourist attractions.

Outdoor Adventures:

The cabin sits on a snowmobile and ATV trail, making it a haven for outdoor enthusiasts. Cattail Cottage, with its own dock, is perfect for kayaking, canoeing, and fishing. This hidden gem offers a quiet escape with amazing fishing opportunities, including Northern Pike and pan fish.

Ask about our fishing guide referral! We are partnered with a local professional fishing guide to give our guests year-round access to the very best fishing on all the area lakes -- not just ours! Yes - even ice fishing. All you need is a valid WI fishing license and he takes care of the rest.

Easter Weekend

We used this cabin as a halfway meeting spot to spend Easter Weekend with extended family and we are so glad we picked this cabin. I was perfect for what we needed. Plenty of space for everyone. The kids really enjoyed having the ping pong table and the many board games to keep us busy since there was still snow on the ground. It was very clean and Brad and Sarah were very helpful and responsive. If we book again we will probably bring our own pillows as the ones provided are very firm and we will also be bringing more large bowls for cooking for larger groups. Other than that everything was perfect. Hayward was a short drive north, it had everything we needed and we enjoyed walking around the downtown area.

Absolutely Perfect

Everything was as described and maybe a little under sold. The property was impeccably clean, the communication was on point and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The kids asked if we could stay there forever.

Old friends girls’ weekend

Eight of my good friends rent a cabin every winter for long conversations and lots of laughing. We enjoyed staying at the cabin and sign up to cook each meal. The kitchen equipment is limited and small for larger groups. We had to serve a fruit juice from a mixing bowl and ladle and cook food in batches in the small frying pan. The cabin was very clean and had a lovely view. Be sure to bring your own throws and cushions if the weather is cold.

Clean and high quality, host is super responsive

The cabin is very clean and high quality. Love how everything is labeled - especially all the lights! Double bonus that there was a sponge and dish soap since I always forget to pack that. Love that it’s pet friendly. The floors are not carpeted which makes it great for pets. We have stayed in multiple of Brads properties and he is super responsive and answers all my questions.

Family get away

The place was very clean. Nice to have a bedroom downstairs to put my grandson to bed and we could be upstairs playing cards. Appreciated being able to bring our dog. Wish there would of been snow to play in. We enjoyed gong for a hike and went whistle Puke.

About the host

Hosted by Brad O'Connell

My wife Sarah and I are from Eau Claire (about an hour and a half south of the chalet) which is where we live too. We have 2 teenage kids at home, so like a lot of families, we are busy keeping up with sports, school activities, and everything in between. We identify with everyone out there who feels the need to get away every once in a while.

Why they chose this property

We love the northwoods! We chose to buy this home because we stayed at a handful of cabin rentals nearby in years past and fell in love with this area. It didn’t take long before we dreamed of owning our own cabin someday.

What makes this property unique

When you're inside the cottage, you still feel connected to the outdoors. Even though the building is brand-new, the cottage interior has that classic rustic feel. It's cozy yet at the same time, provides all the space you and your family need to spread out and enjoy yourselves. We absolutely love this cottage and our hope is that you will love it too.
