Close to shops, lakes, restaurants. Was a quiet well maintained home. Made for a perfect relaxing quick getaway.
Our first trip up north during the winter and it was fantastic. The house was great. Location was great and easy to get around to everything. Highly recommend this house for any time of the year.
The amenities are all top notch and the location is within walking distance of Restaurants, Bars and Shopping. This unit also has a unique history which is on display in the home.
The Catalog Cottage is in a great location for walking to shops and restaurants in downtown Minocqua. The property is well maintained, well appointed for both comfort and function, and has spacious bedrooms. While it’s not ideal to have one of the full bathrooms located in the basement, for a short stay it’s manageable and better to have it than not have it. I would stay there again.
The Catalog Cottage is very cute, cozy and comfortable. It has everything you need to enjoy your vacation. It is in the perfect location with easy walking distance to town and some restaurants and bars. This year the weather was a plus; very pleasant. We enjoyed sitting on the porch taking in the warm sun. We also caught quite a few fish off the pier; Blue Gills, Perch and Bass. Looking forward to returning next year for another relaxing vacation.
We had 3 girls stay at the house. It had 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. It was perfect. It was clean and not cluttered. There were just a few small things that needed attention. A broken chair on the deck and ice machine worked only half of our stay. Other than that the house is great. Great location. We we’re able to walk to restaurants, shopping, coffee shops.
