The history of Bear Cottage has been told for generations and it remains one of the oldest, if not the oldest, cabin on the treasured and pristine Star Lake. In fact, the cabin was built miles from where it currently stands and later dragged via a team of horses across a frozen Star Lake in the early 1900's. Over the years it has been a place for resting during the area’s logging days, and more recently, was one of the camp cabins at the renowned Tony Rizzo’s Silver Musky Resort, where top anglers stayed and enjoyed the bountiful fishing at Star Lake. In an effort to retain its history, minimal improvements have been made to the two-bedroom cabin, however, there is now a fully functioning kitchen and remodeled bathroom, air conditioning for the hot summer nights, and a natural gas fireplace for cool spring and fall mornings. Bear Cottage is just steps away from a sandy lakefront with a private pier for your swimming, boating, or fishing enjoyment. It also sits at the mouth of Little Star Creek, which flows into the lake. Here, you'll find yourself enjoying a late night around the lakeside fire pit, or an early morning cup of coffee in the screened porch listening to the gentle flow of the creek, the croak of a bullfrog, or the call of a loon. If you are looking to enjoy all that the Northwoods has to offer, as well a piece of history and an unplugged budget-friendly lakeside cabin, then Bear Cottage is the place for you. ## Property amenities ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Stovetop ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Shower - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Firepit - Porch/lanai ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - One pet total (up to 50 lbs per pet) ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Location highlights - On a lake - On the waterfront ### Things to do - Fishing nearby - Jet skiing nearby - Motor boating nearby - Swimming nearby - Water skiing nearby - Wildlife walks nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) ## Similar properties ![DVD player, foosball](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/25000000/24380000/24371700/24371634/db5e96d2.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Adorable 3 bedroom home w/ beautiful lake front views St. Germain - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet friendly 8.4 Very good 39 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-31&endDate=2026-02-01&selected=24371634&PinnedHotelID=24371634&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/67000000/66450000/66444500/66444498/1e7f05f3.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Private, Pet Friendly Vacation Home on Lost Lake St. Germain - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet friendly 9.2 Wonderful 46 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-31&endDate=2026-02-01&selected=66444498&PinnedHotelID=66444498&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/90000000/89700000/89694000/89693911/69f914ab.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Deer Run Unit #8 on Big St Germain Lake St Germain 8.8 Excellent 8 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-31&endDate=2026-02-01&selected=89693911&PinnedHotelID=89693911&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/40000000/39180000/39172500/39172471/8cccf74b.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Newly remodeled lake home w/panoramic views & private swimming area Presque Isle - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Air conditioning 9.4 Exceptional 70 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-31&endDate=2026-02-01&selected=39172471&PinnedHotelID=39172471&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/105000000/104060000/104058800/104058751/1dcf0e4a.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### TB-13 Thunder Bay Resort Cabin 13 Phelps - Kitchen - Pet friendly - Free WiFi - Parking available [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-31&endDate=2026-02-01&selected=104058751&PinnedHotelID=104058751&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Smart TV, fireplace, DVD player, video library](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/34000000/33940000/33934600/33934533/5b70acbe.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Year round home on WI River/Lake Alice, private dock, on ATV/snowmobile trail.

It offers a delightful retreat back to nature, where you can feel the soft ground beneath your feet and relax by the shore with your toes in the water, or snuggle next to a cozy fire outside. Ideal for a getaway, you can spend your time catching small bluegill off the dock or take your boat out to explore the many other fishing opportunities around the lake. I absolutely love this place and will definitely continue to stay here. ##### Derek C. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ann T.

So we were stuck inside a lot, the cabin is “nice” but it would have been better with Wi-Fi. Property manager was great. The location feels like you are staying in someone’s yard. We wanted to bring our little dog with us, so our choices were limited, we don’t usually vacation during peak season either but it seemed pricey. ##### Roger S.

Jul 21, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Needs work Love being on Star Lake but the Bear Cottage needs work. The screen porch is great but the door does not close so it is defeating the purpose. Rooms are dark and crowded. Why are there serving pieces for 36 people when there is hardly room for 3? Was hoping it would be better this time but it was not. Kind of a bummer. ##### Nancy P. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Laura M.
