Fishermens' Cottage located on Big Arbor Vitae Lake

In the heart of the enchanting Big Arbor Vitae Lake, the Fishing Cottage beckons to avid anglers with its prime location. Boasting a 1000+ acre lake renowned for walleye and surrounded by approximately 85% state-owned land, it's a haven for fishing enthusiasts. Whether casting a line off the pier or exploring the expansive lake by boat, the options are abundant. The cottage offers a cozy retreat with everything needed, inviting moments of relaxation with a good book or engaging in a game of Yahtzee on the sun porch.

The allure of the Minocqua area enhances the experience, known for its exceptional supper clubs and a calendar filled with weekend events throughout the summer. A mere 9-minute drive reveals the largest flea market in Wisconsin, a weekly spectacle from Memorial to Labor Day. Notably, the property shares its space with one other rental, providing two piers, two fire pit areas, and a spacious grassy expanse for yard games. Safety is prioritized with two cameras at the back of the property, ensuring the well-being of both owners and renters, while the cottage maintains privacy without cameras within the rental spaces.

It's important to be aware that, for bookings in mid-October, the piers will be removed for the winter, and reinstated before Memorial Weekend unless a late lake thaw influences the schedule, adding a seasonal touch to the lakeside retreat.
