Northwoods Perfection on Beautiful Lake Metonga
Our lake home is nestled on the North shore of Lake Metonga, in Crandon, WI. Metonga is a 2,038 acre full-rec lake, boasting crystal clear water, and a flawless sandy shoreline.

Cottage was as advertised and very well equipped. Extremely clean and well maintained. Swimming was good and fishing for perch off the dock although shallow was fun for the kids with several jumbo perch.
We had a great time as a family at this property. Second time we've been there. Hosts are great at communicating. Property was as advertised! 5 out of 5 stars.
House was great. Tons of space for our group of 4. Back deck was awesome, perfect view of the lake and lots of seating. We used the fire pit every night as well. Great dock on the lake with built in seating too. Would 100% go back!
We enjoyed this large and comfortable home on the lake. Both sets of grandparents and our children and grandchildren had a fun time spending 5 days on the lake. The kitchen is well stocked, 2 lovely decks to relax on and plenty of square footage to find a quiet place for some quiet time. Owners were very accommodating and responsive,
We enjoyed our time at the lake cottage. The kitchen was very well equipped with everything we needed. The beds were great, living area fit all our needs. The kids loved the swimming and were able to catch fish right off the dock.. plenty of dock room for our 2 boats. The hosts answered our questions right away. We definitely want to come back next summer.
Thanks for sharing your lake home with us.
fiaccommodation we
Very spacious, clean, family friendly lake house that was affordable. Our family loved staying on Lake Metonga. Clean lake, not too crowded & shallow enough near dock for kids to play, fish and swim. So glad you shared your kayak’s. House had everything we needed and great restaurants/gas stations & ice cream close by. Kiddos enjoyed the dvd player & wii in the basement. Boat ramp was easily accessible & right by the sand Vball courts. Some of our favorite memories were try to get 1st time skiers up, s’mores by campfire & ring/hook game.
Check in was flawless with keys exactly where they were communicated to be. Kitchen was fully equipped and clean. Beds were comfortable and swimming was good. Overall, this is a first-rate rental. The hosts were accessible and friendly. The outside amenities were also very good. Very peaceful part of the lake.
Property was large, welcoming, and beautiful. Located on beautiful Lake Matonga. The view from the living room, even on a blistery weekend was stunning and relaxing. We would love to stay in summer time.
We loved our time at the cottage so much we can for the 2nd year and looking forward to next year at the lake. Great place for the grandkids to swim, fish and have fun together. The adults had a relaxing time also. We're looking forward to coming back next summer. Every thing we needed is there. Accommodation are perfect. Slept all 11 of us with room for more. Very nice!!!We'll be back!!!
Beautiful house and lake.....clean property and lake.....plenty of places to go and see....fireworks at charlies were great for 4th of july....would definitely come back! Very friendly and helpful owners.
The house is very nice, and slept 8 adults very comfortable, would easily sleep more if were family. Lake access and access to trails was easy and not far from gas stations and restaurants. Parking was a little tricky, mostly because we had four trucks with 4 trailers over 24' but we made it work. would have been easy with 1 or 2 tow units. We would stay there again for sure.
We had a wonderful stay in Crandon. The property accommodated all 7 of us and was stocked with everything we needed. My daughters enjoyed the kayaks and the paddle boat and also playing the wii in the evenings. The view from the deck of the lake is beautiful. We brought our boat and the launch was close and it was easy to tie up at the dock. The lake is sandy off the dock and nice for swimming. We spent a lot of time boating on the lake and especially enjoyed seeing eagles, loons, baby ducks, and a muskrat! Thanks to the owners for sharing their lake home!
We had an absolute blast! The property was everything we needed for a family with growing babies. My parents were thrilled to be able to take their 3 girls, and their grandkids and actually have the space and privacy for everyone. The downstairs was great for the bigger kids and adults without babies, while having 3 babies under 1 upstairs! We didn’t hear a thing down there. The lake was gorgeous, the house has everything you could ever need and more. We can’t wait to go back and make more memories again!
From the minute we stepped foot into the lake house, we knew we had made a great choice. The views were amazing, the house was inviting and comfortable. The best part was that our teenage boys loved it, too, and said we should "do it again there next year!" Our kids have NEVER asked to repeat a vacation, so this was a first, but definitely a memory-making space for sure. The lake is gorgeous-we fished and skiied and boated--and even took the boys to dinner across the lake and to the Bare A-- Beach for a lazy afternoon tie-up. Campfires, loons, stars, oh my! You can't beat this property for a family vacation of a lifetime. We'll definitely be back! Thanks for being awesome hosts and sharing your beautiful property with our family.
Our family of 6 (kids ages 14, 12, 10, 8) had a wonderful time at this cottage on Lake Metonga. The home was extremely clean, well-stocked with anything a family could need, and situated on a beautiful lake! We enjoyed boating, tubing, fishing, and swimming outdoors on the days where the weather was nice. The kids loved the kayaks and the paddle boat, and spent a lot of time out on the water. On rainy days, we had fun playing games, watching movies, and playing the Wii. The owners of this property are excellent, as they've thought of everything, and communication was quick and helpful. We found the 'Welcome Binder' to be helpful and tried out many of their suggestions during our stay. We highly recommend staying at this cottage on Lake Metonga, and would love to return in the future!
The house was very clean and well stocked. We had an amazing time. The hosts were very accomodating and went above and beyond to help us. We were stranded on the lake and they were able to message neighbors to provide assistance, talk about full service and caring for others! This is our favorite place to stay up north, would highly recommend this to anyone. We will be back next year!
We had an unlucky week with the weather, but did get a nice day for lake fun! Regardless, we did have an amazing time at this place! The house is great and there is a beautiful view over the lake and with plenty of wildlife.
