Enjoy a lively summer with boating, skiing, and fishing, then transition into a picturesque fall, ideal for hunting, fishing, and soaking in the stunning foliage. As winter unveils its snowy blanket, find yourself seamlessly transitioning from the cozy indoors to acclaimed snowmobile trails, directly accessible from our location.

Why our guests

Love Staying Here

This is the perfect place for a group trip to Eagle River! The house was beautiful, spacious, and well-equipped, with the highlight being the fun game room and the giant dining room that made meals a delight. We loved the stunning lakeview, and our host was incredibly kind and attentive, making our stay even more enjoyable. We can't wait to come back!

The house was large enough for the 12 people we had there. It was clean and supplied with just about everything you may need for cooking. There were numerous games to play as well the pool table, etc in the speakeasy. There was one very minor problem we had which was taken care of immediately by the host. She was extremely helpful and very quick to respond before and during our stay. The dock and lake were great and enjoyed by adults and children. Everyone with me agreed it was one of, if the best house we've rented over the past 5 years.

We stayed here for the Pond Hockey tournament and booked it last minute after someone cancelled their reservation and oh my goodness did we luck out! What an amazing home, so spacious, cozy, and quiet. I will absolutely be trying to make this our place to stay year after year when we head up to eagle river for the tourney!

Christina’s home is absolutely beautiful! There was plenty of space for our group of 13 ladies, we all loved the dining area and the game room. This was our 18th annual Snow Chicks weekend and unfortunately we were not able to snowmobile due to some of the trails being closed. That didn’t stop us from having fun though! Christina was extremely responsive when we had questions and we are hoping to book again next year!

Our family group gathered at Catfish Hideaway for the Thanksgiving Holiday, and this place was truly perfect. As you approach the house from the road for the first time you might be fooled into thinking it is just a normal house, but once inside you realize it has loads of thoughtfully laid out space. But the best thing for our group was the open concept kitchen/dining room/family room, that let us all hang out together while the turkey cooked. The second best thing was the “Speakeasy,” where the pool table, air hockey table and large screen TV all got thorough workouts through the entire weekend. The views toward Catfish Lake are beautiful, and we even had light snow flurries to add to the Holiday theme. With the electric fireplace on and wrapped in cozy blankets, it was kind of a Hallmark holiday movie moment. Christina was extremely easy to work with, and she worked hard to make sure our visit went well.

Fantastic rental! The space was perfect for our 2 families (7 people) - lots of room, things to do, very close to town. The kitchen was one of the best stocked we’ve ever had at an Airbnb. Christina was a great host and incredibly responsive! We’ll definitely stay here again.

The house was perfect for our large family. It offered many indoor and outdoor activities for us and plenty of space to spread out and relax when we wanted down time. There is ample, comfortable bedspace to accommodate many people, kids and adults. The house's surroundings are beautiful and there is wildlife to watch through the house's panoramic windows or from a distance outside. A short walk down the road brings you to a sometimes-lively bar/restaurant with beach sports and slip access. In addition to the house's kayaks, there are numerous nearby places to rent bikes, boats, and other outdoor recreational items. Christina is incredibly communicative and helpful. I appreciate the effort she put in to help my family have a wonderful time!

When entering the building we were immediately surprised how nice and spacious the entry way was. Once entered into the kitchen we were taken back of how nice the house was. We had 10 people to our group and there was a ton room for more! Everything was extremely clean, organized and comfortable! There wasn’t one “I wish this place had” comment. Everything we needed was there. We are hopeful to return in the summer! We did some fishing, perch are present but they were small. Found some musky, pike and walleye. Everyone we came in contact with on the lake was very friendly. Christina was super quick to respond, and very accommodating. Can’t wait to be back!

The house is gorgeous! Very clean and plenty of space and seating for everyone. The two dining room tables were so nice! And the game room. The coffee bar was great and the tea kettle was appreciated. We enjoyed our stay. Everyone had enough room, privacy, and space to relax.

This home was perfect for our extended family gathering. Plenty of space, beautiful natural light, extremely clean, and lots of fun entertainment! Everything looks just like the pictures with no surprises. Christina was an excellent host - she was very responsive and accommodating to our needs. We will likely book again in the future!

It's a wonderful property at the bank of catfish lake and Christine is the best host I have ever interacted with. She is just a call away and we didn't face any issue at all. It was a stay worth spending quality time midst of nature. Will recommend this property to anyone who wants to spend some time and relax and enjoy.

The place was great! It was perfect for two families with a lot of space to spread out. The location is perfect right near downtown Eagle River. Christina was very communicative and responsive. I highly recommend!!

Beautiful house and lake view! The house is spacious and so much to do! Christina was extremely accommodating and responsive even going out and purchasing child gates when she found out we were going to have little ones staying there as well! We loved our stay! There were so many awesome little touches. The only negative thing I could say is there isn’t much head space in the bunk beds but that was such a minor detail in the long scheme of it all. Would definitely stay here again and highly suggest it to anyone looking!
