Small Cabin, Great Location
The location on the chain of lakes was great, we rented a pontoon and had fun exploring all of the lakes. The channel was busy during the middle of the day. We loved the bunkhouse for the kids. Outdoor space was great with the hammock, firepit, tables and lots of seating, access to the water and dock. The cabin was clean and had some nice updates, though the indoor space was too small for our group of 7 adults and 5 kids. You are responsible for removing your own garbage and recycling.

Sweet place in the woods
We had a great holiday weekend at Andrea’s place- between the finished basement, bunkhouse and outdoor furniture, there were many places to spread out. Great to have a second fridge, too! One of my favorite Wisco VRBO experiences.

Serene location on the river
We had three families with 10 total people--6 adults and 4 children ages 10-12. We enjoyed the location which was on a channel leading to several lakes on the chain of lakes in Eagle River. The cottage was very clean with updated facilities. The kitchen and bathrooms were well stocked. The children enjoyed the outdoor games and the Foosball table in the lower level. There are multiple indoor games and kids movies that are also supplied.The four kids enjoyed the retreat of the separate bunkhouse (and so did the adults). The cottage is also close to a park with easy access to the swimming beach. We rented a pontoon, in addition to the canoe and kayak that are supplied. We fished and the kids swam in the shallow water off the pier by the cottage. We frequently saw deer in the front yard and ducks in the water. . The kids affectionately named one of the ducks "Goldie" and were reluctant to say goodbye the morning we left. It was a a fun trip for our family and we would definitely recommend this location for a family trip.

Amazing cabin!
Our family rented this beautiful cabin for a fun week of fishing, boating, and relaxing. The cabin is beautiful, clean, and located on gorgeous property. We enjoyed fires at night, fishing, cooking out, swimming, and boating. We all loved the view and watching the eagles fly by frequently. The owner of the cabin was very helpful and answered all my question in a very timely manner. We can’t wait to go back again!

Knotty Pine was just what my family was hoping for! The description is accurate.
Kids loved the inflatable alligator and having campfires! Adults loved sitting by the river and how well the kitchen was equipped and usable for multiple people preparing food at the same time. Lovely roads to run or bike along in the morning. We’d definitely visit again!

Wonderful Cabin
This cabin was perfect for our family (9) of adult children and a couple of their friends. We had access to the chain of lakes, comfortable sleeping arrangements, clean and up to date amenities, even great Wifi for the ones in our group who had to work while with us. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Location
Location is key here. The property sits on a channel on a chain of lakes. It is busy on the weekends and quiet during the week. We felt like we were camping because we literally spent all of our time outside! We kept a fire going all day; lounged in the chairs and watched the kids in the water; used the grill for lunch and dinner; fished off the dock; enjoyed the ducks, otters and more in the water; read a book in the hammock, and played some yard games! The cabin is well organized and clean. There was plenty of room for our group of 9.

Knotty Pine is a wonderful cottage!
Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Knotty Pine. The cottage is very up to date and extremely clean. We appreciated how well stocked the kitchen and bathrooms were. There were lots of little touches that made our stay memorable. Andrea is a delightful host and is very responsive. The location is perfect on the channel and close to downtown. I would highly recommend staying at Knotty Pine when you are looking in the area!
