Effie's House Spacious 3BR Lake Cabin – Fishing, Fire Pit & ATV/UTV Access

$207-259/night
3 Bedrooms • 3 Baths • Sleeps 1-6
Internet Wood Stove Lakefront Forest (more...)

Ample wildlife, peace, and quiet await you here, with easy access to fishing and the ATV/snowmobile trail systems (most local roads are open to ATV use). The property is located at the north end of Killarney Lake, near the Willow Flowage, Lake Nokomis, and the Tomahawk River. A public boat launch is available at the south end of the lake near Kelly Dam.

The property spans about 100 acres of wooded land and includes a private dock on Killarney Lake for shore fishing and kayak access. A large open yard with a fire pit is perfect for gathering, and a few on-site trails are yours to explore. There’s also space for target shooting, and safe, responsible firearm use is welcome.

Inside the Home
The main floor features an open-concept kitchen, dining, and living area with a small island (three barstools) and a dining table that seats six comfortably (eight if needed). The fully stocked kitchen has everything you’ll need—dishes, utensils, coffee maker, pots and pans, microwave, toaster, and other small appliances (note: no dishwasher). A wood-burning fireplace adds extra warmth and charm.

Step out the front door to a covered porch with a swing, gas grill, and charcoal grill, or through the rear patio door to a large wraparound deck with a covered sitting area. Also on the main floor: a full bathroom, laundry area, and two bedrooms (one king, one queen).

Upstairs, you’ll find a cozy loft reading nook with bookshelves and a bedroom with a king bed and a full bathroom.

On the lower level, a spacious family room offers a gas woodstove, TV, sleeper sofa, recliners, futon, rocker, mini-fridge, microwave, and a table with four chairs. A patio door opens to the yard. This level also includes a full bathroom and a separate room with two twin beds, board games, puzzles, and playing cards. A sliding door provides privacy if desired.

Modern Comforts
The home is equipped with Starlink Internet so you can stay connected, stream content on smart TVs (main floor and lower level), or play music on the portable powered speaker. A wireless printer is also available on the main floor.

Nearby Attractions
The city of Tomahawk (13 miles south), Minocqua (23 miles north), and Rhinelander (24 miles east) offer shopping, restaurants, and conveniences. Closer to home, you’ll find a mix of local dining spots—from casual bars like Boomba Bar and Willow’s End to finer dining at Bootlegger’s Lodge. While traffic is minimal, keep an eye out for deer along the roads!

What We Provide
We’ll start you off with basic supplies such as a few rolls of toilet paper, hand soap, dish soap, and paper towels. To make your stay more enjoyable, we recommend stocking up on groceries and any extra provisions on your way in so you can relax right away.

This property has been in our family for nearly a century. The original home was lost to a lightning strike and fire in the late 1970s, but in 2001 it was rebuilt as a retirement retreat for my mother, who grew up here. Though we now live on the East Coast, our family continues to return for a few months each year—especially during the warmer seasons and for hunting.
