Hooper's Cabin is our new favorite place
We're somewhat seasoned Northwoods travelers and this is by far our favorite place we've ever stayed. Dad's Lake is so beautiful, serene, and secluded. The house was clean and comfortable. The fire pit area is great and the boats provided were a ton of fun. We will absolutely be back at this rental in the future as long as it's available.

Lake cabin in the woods
This cabin is set in n the woods on a lake. Nature all around, peaceful quite and plenty to explore. Offers a large selection of books, with some games and puzzles for those days spent indoors. Plenty to do outdoors too. Cabin is cozy and comfortable which is nicely kept.

Hidden Gem
Truly a beautiful spot! The lake offered glimpses of eagles, loons, and deer. We enjoyed swimming, kayaking, & fishing. The no wake lake allowed our kids to explore without worry. The lake was quiet. The cottage offered beautiful views, plenty of space and activities for down times.

Overnight stay
It is a beautiful cabin, that is furnished like a home. We made a day trip to the minocqua area and the UP and this place was perfect to rest our heads. Everything is in immaculate condition and the master bedroom bed is great! In the morning we sat on the dock watching the sunrise and then before we left we used the available kayaks to explore Dad's lake. It was a great experience and will definitely be back to book multiple days!

Lovely Cabin
The cabin is comfortably furnished and provides a warm and cozy environment. The lake lot offers nice frontage and allows for privacy. We did notice that past guests did not always thoroughly clean dish ware and utensils but the problem was easily remedied. We would suggest that the description of the cabin clarify that the master bedroom is on the lower level.

Hotter Cabin
Great stay! Great views. Boat, canoe and katak available to use and we used them all. Fire out area was big and had lots if seating and you can cook on it. Swinging grate to go over fire was used for all of our meals. Home was nuce inside. Had nice fireplace to sit and cozy up to. Kitchen well supplied with diahes and cookwear. Washer and dryer with complimentary laundry detergent was very nice. Great stay! Had a great relaxing weak stay.

Property is outstanding! Vacasa has challenges
The house is clean and charming and comfortable. The views are lovely abs the lake is peaceful and gorgeous. I moved my trip by one day with the property management company, Vacasa, and they did not adjust this with the owner so we had to stay in a hotel the first night. I let Vacasa know and there was no response.

Peaceful Getaway
We enjoyed our stay at the Hotter cottage on Dad's Lake. It was so peaceful and the weather was perfect for our fishing adventures, walks, nights around the firepit and exploring Eagle River. The cottage has a lovely great room that we didn't use much which is a shame as the view of the lake in the morning is gorgeous. I would suggest putting a TV in that room for families to gather and really enjoy the setting. We had a group of 4 and did fine in the smaller living area next to the kitchen, but the early morning sunshine sometimes made it difficult to watch TV. Maybe a shade or blinds could be added here. Loved our week there and the colors were just starting to turn, so it was a sight to see. Recommend highly.

OK ..but
Biggest issue was the weather was hot and the lack of ac and especially dehumidifier was problematic. Was unaware the main bedroom was on a lower level which was also very dank and musty. Found it pretty unpleasant and definitely impacted our stay! Overall we found the house to have one good main living room which was nicely furnished etc but felt the rest of the house and outside area to be less than ideal but not terrible…
