Escape from everyday life at Whispering Pines, a dog-friendly home mere steps away from Oscar-Jenny Lake. This quaint home away from home offers all the essentials to spend an unforgettable time with your family or friends. The living room invites you to snuggle up in front of the gas fireplace and watch your favorite Netflix series or movies (please use your own account). The kitchen features all the needed appliances and cooking utensils to truly be the star chef of the group and if you'd like to spice things up, the gas grill available will do the trick. Admire beautiful sunsets by the firepit or use the canoe in the yard to explore the lake first hand.

This secluded location is ideal for those needing some time away from home and all of the noise of the city. There is a boat launch located off of Jenny Lake Road for your convenience. Harshaw is the nearest town five miles north and then if you'd like a true taste of city life, Rhinelander is 16 miles away. Golfers will have a great time at the nearby Pinewood Country Club.

Beautiful little lake, we had so much fun fishing! This was a working vacation and we really appreciated the strong wi-fi connection. The cabin also had a great kitchen to prepare meals in during our stay. We would definitely recommend staying at this cabin.

Change of Pace, just what I needed.

The best vacation rental I have stayed at to date. It was very clean, quiet, and everything you need was at the cabin. Listening to the water/waves and wind blowing through the large pine trees was amazing.

Very private cabin in a relaxed setting.

The location was very private and the small lake had very little activity during the week. The cabin was quaint and comfortable. There is no air conditioning, so when temps got into the 90's it was stuffy. The weekend saw a marked increase in activity. We would stay at this cabin again, but there were some simple adjustments that would have made our stay even better. Clean and mow the yard and fix the password issue with wifi. Vacasa was not very knowledgeable or helpful.

Beautiful lake house

Had a wonderful and relaxing stay. Everything was seamless, from check in to an option of a late check out. Wonderful quiet location right on the lake. Couldn’t of asked for a more relaxing stay! Do yourself a favor and book this cozy and comfortable cabin.

Private and comfortable

Cabin ws cozy and comfortable. Area was private and quiet. Great view of the lake. Lawn was not mowed and unkept. Wifi password did not work and issue was unresolved through the course of our six day stay. Management did not help. Not being able to use my laptop for the entire period was an issue. I happen to be a tech savy person so "doing a restart/reboot" on the wifi was not the answer.

Perfect stay!

We loved our stay here! House was very clean and had a lot of great amenities. Kitchen stocked with all appliances/ kitchen tools you would need. We did a lot of fishing right off the pier. We caught bluegill, bass and northern. We enjoyed lots of campfires at night around the nice fire pit! We would love to stay here again.
