Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!' Cozy and cute, this cottage set right on Dog Lake on the Three Lakes chain offers four seasons of outdoor fun. Spend summer mornings swimming or fishing off your private dock, or go for a hike, bike, or ATV ride on one of many nearby trails. In the wintertime, try your hand at ice fishing, snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, or snowmobiling. Year-round, stop in for a glass at Three Lakes Winery, around six miles away, explore the Franklin & Butternut Lakes State Natural Area, 15 miles north, or visit Eagle River's shops, restaurants, and amenities about 16 miles northwest. At home, start the day with coffee out on your deck and wake up with the lake. The well-equipped, open kitchen inside makes meal prep a breeze, while dining can be enjoyed indoors at the breakfast bar or the table for six or out at the lakeside picnic table. Homey, traditional furnishings and an open layout make it easy to get comfortable with friends and family. After a day outdoors, entertainment options at home include two streaming-capable TVs, a DVD player, and complimentary high-speed WiFi. Keep dinner simple on the gas grill, then unplug entirely while you roast marshmallows around the firepit in the yard. Sleep easy in any of four well-appointed bedrooms - another day of Northwoods adventure awaits tomorrow!

The house is nice and close to the lake. Beautiful scenery. I highly recommend it for 6 or less people. ##### ken k. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jessica T. Jul 2, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect lake cabin! We absolutely loved our stay here and am so glad we found such a gem. The cabin is pristinely clean and the layout was perfect for our family. The location is wonderful - quiet, private, and directly on the lake. The view is spectacular and we also had short drives to neighboring towns and shops. Everything we could have needed was there and ready to go. We had the best time and only wish we could have stayed longer. Hopefully we will be back! ##### Jessica T.
