Cozy lakefront cottage with modern comforts. Swim, fish and unwind on the lake

Welcome to fun and relaxation at the lake all year round! Perfect for family and friends.

WINTER:
Live in a winter wonderland with ice fishing, snowmobiling, crafting/quilting and loving the view of freshly fallen snow. Multiple Indoor electric fireplaces will keep you cozy on cold nights. Shawano Lake is known for its ice fishing. Fish on the lake include Musky, Panfish, Largemouth Bass, Northern Pike, Walleye and Sturgeon. Christmas lovers - the halls are decked out for your holiday!

SPRING:
Embrace the emergence of nature by listening/watching the birds, kayaking, paddle boarding, and enjoying bonfires.

SUMMER:
This vacation home is idyllic to bring your family to go fishing, swimming, play games, watch sunsets and make memories. The cottage comes with a dock to tie your boat, and is close by to a boat launch. No boat? No problem! You can rent a boat at American Marine. The land is flat in the backyard to the water. The water is quite shallow towards the end of the dock, perfect for children to swim in or to sit in with a chair with a cold beverage. We also have two adult kayaks, two kids kayaks (up to 130lbs), a water mat, and two paddleboards for your use. New whole house air conditioning and individual window AC units (for 2 or 3 bedrooms) will be arriving in Spring 2025, just in time to keep you cool for the summer.

FALL:
Enjoy the stunning fall leaves changing while warming up to a campfire, or going on ATV adventures. Packer fans - we're just a 30-minute drive from Lambeau Field. The dock cannot be guaranteed between October 13 until late spring.

YEAR-ROUND:
Enjoy board games/books for all age groups as well as a dartboard. Located on the south side of Shawano Lake, several grocery stores, restaurants, breweries, casinos, golf courses, ATV/snowmobile trails, bowling and shopping areas are just a short few minutes away. Indoor electric fireplaces and an outdoor fire pit will keep you cozy any day of the week.

Great place! Loved the pier for fishing...even caught a northern! Amazing sunset view over the lake. And great deck for looking at the stars...great place to relax and reset. It was too cold to go in the water, we may revisit to do that next summer. House was clean and comfortable.

We can’t say enough good about this lovely home and the hosts. We had an entire family with an infant, toddler, teens and grandparents. Both the host and home were overly accommodating. The lake access and views are spectacular. Will 100% stay again.

Wonderful stay!
This cottage was by far the best we've stayed at in the area. The owners thought ahead to the needs of the renters,from toys to coffee filters. The only thing missing were directions to the TV and thermostat for the technically challenged. (us) Would go there again!!!!

So many things to do in all weather!
This was our second time renting this property on Shawano Lake, and it was as wonderful as the first! The weather was not as cooperative this time, but we had plenty to do with all the games, large TV for movie time, fire pit, and all the outside amenities when the weather was nice enough to hang out by the lake. The location is perfect for sunsets and bird watching. Loved it!

Second time staying here & our family loved it. The only negative was the airflow upstairs was unbearable & made it very uncomfortable for everyone who was sleeping upstairs. Neighbors were super friendly on both sides & the location for watching sunsets made it truly amazing!
