Ideal Scenic Northwoods Setting

I'm very satisfied with the accommodations of King's Cottage. During my recent stay, I visited multiple nearby parks for cross-country-skiing. The wood stove sauna was a great luxury during my stay after my long cross country ski sessions.

The Secluded cottage was well maintained. The property had abundant wildlife to keep us entertained. I would recommend King's Cottage to any one looking for a quiet place to stay. Also, the tourist destinations are only a short drive away.

Unfortunately my partner and I got sick the week of our trip and never made it to our relaxing cabin getaway. Leading up to our trip, the proprietor Mr. King was helpful, informative and professional. We're sure our stay would have been wonderful.

A little piece of heaven

Absolutely beautiful Northwoods properrty! The forest and lakes here are the perfect getaway to unplug and recharge. The cabin was clean, maintained well, and has all the charm of a cabin up north. Bed was extremely comfortable. Loved hiking the property and surrounding trails. Nighttime bonfires listening to the sounds of nature was the best way to end each day!

Ideal Northwoods Vacation Spot

I've been visiting the King's Cottage destination for the past five years, and I've consistently had wonderful experiences with each stay. I recent years, I've begun exploring the many nearby cross country skiing trails during my long weekend stays here. The property is always so well maintained, and it's always a rejuvenating experience to make my annual trip here.

Our stay was quiet and we saw no one near the property our entire stay until an hour before we left when a woman on a horse went by. It was great having lakes front and back, also no one else around

Harshaw Cottage

Our stay at this cottage was great. Our entire family enjoyed the stay including our 2 dogs. It was calming and private and beautiful country. I even made a 10 minute video of the lake at 5:30 am with the beautiful scenery and wilderness sounds to play back later at home. I would recommend this location to anyone.

Very nice location. Cabin is basic, with an old-time feel that we liked. More like 2 standard beds, than a queen and standard bed. There's a futon in the kitchen/living room too.

A True Gem in the Northwoods

We came up to the Northwoods with my parents (and our pups) to scout out potential property for a future family vacation spot. We instantly fell in love with Richard’s cabin. It was everything you’d hope for in a cozy little cabin for our quick weekend trip. It was incredibly well stocked (probably one of the best I’ve ever stayed in) and incredibly clean. The location was a perfect spot for us to explore the nearby areas. And so incredibly peaceful and quiet. There was too much snow to explore the beautiful property, but we hope to come back in the summer or fall to stay again and do some exploring. We loved every minute here and were incredibly sad to leave. This property really sets a bar for what we are looking for in our future Northwoods retreat!

Family vacation

The cabin is very clean and cozy and has everything needed for a family of 4 to have a comfortable stay. Our boys are fishing enthusiasts and the front lake provided a lot of entertainment- they caught bass, bluegill, and crappie (once they studied up on how to fish a bog). They also swam. Both lakes on the property are beautiful and very peaceful. We were able to access the back lake ok, but other trails on the property were overgrown and probably better in other seasons of the year. Nearby access to beautiful Bearskin trail was a plus. We also fished with a guide in Minoqua, and had a great time. Fishing from the banks at nearby Rainbow Reservoir was also good. Overall this was a great vacation and we would come again! Only negative: the mosquitos are bad but we were prepared with bug spray.
