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.

Snowmobile trail access is seconds from this property, or simply ride down onto the ice. UTV trail access is less than 5 minutes away!

The house sits elevated above the lake with a walk-out lower level to a large patio and fire pit, along with a full-length main level deck with breathtaking views.

3 private bedrooms, with a 4th "sleeping nook" separated by privacy curtain. Master suite on main level features king size bed, and bathroom with shower. 2nd bedroom on main level features bunk beds perfect for the kiddos or 1-2 small adults, and deck access. 3rd bedroom is on the lower level with queen bed and walk-out access directly to the fire pit/patio. The 4th "sleeping nook" is on the lower level, separated from the rec-room by privacy curtain, and contains a queen, full, and twin beds! Add in the pull-out sofa in the living room, and this lake gem can comfortably sleep 6-8 adults and 5-7 kids. (strict 8 adult maximum)

The kitchen has everything you need, with full size fridge, ice maker, TWO ovens, microwave, drain disposal, and dishwasher. Open concept to the main level living room. Gas fireplace, TV with Blu-ray player and a variety of DVDs/Blu-rays. No TV service, so bring your own Fire-stick or Roku if you need TV time (WIFI is available.) Living room offers nearly a complete wall of windows and deck doors overlooking the lake!

Walk out onto the full length deck with gas grill and multiple dining/seating options. Dinner on the deck after a long day on the lake will never be better!

Lower level rec-room allows for additional entertainment space. Featuring a 2nd TV with DVD player and Nintendo Wii for the late nights or rainy days.

The patio is perfect for outdoor lounging or fun, as it has yet another outdoor dining table, swing chair, ample space for yard games, fire pit, and only a short walk down the stairs to the lake.

Parking is a breeze on the paved driveway with plenty of room for 4+ vehicles comfortably. Easement on east edge of property offers additional parking space for "toy trailers." Miles of UTV/Snowmobile trails are only minutes away! Downtown Crandon is walking distance, and offers a variety of dining and shopping options. Two casinos within 20 minutes drive time. Only 30 minutes to Rhinelander. 60 minutes to Minocqua. Lake Metonga has a bar/restaurant on the water that allows for boat or car access. In addition to the sandy shore at the property, the South end of Metonga sports a BEAUTIFUL sand beach which can also be boated or driven to. Metonga is known for its Perch and Walleye fishing by boat or by ice.

Our personal pontoon boat is off-limits and not included as part of this rental. There are two boat launches on Metonga, and you can dock your own watercraft on our pier or shoreline as long as weather and waves permit.

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,

Large Family fun lake house
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.

Lovely August Stay
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!

FANTASTIC!!!
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!

Friends snowmobile trip
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.

Beautiful Property on Lake Metonga
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!

"Best vacation, ever" title from our teens.
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.

Relaxing week on the lake
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!
