Stunning Dollar Lake Retreat: Chef's kitchen, 3 fireplaces, on snowmobile trail

Nostalgia never felt so luxurious! Dollar Lake Retreat, a beautifully restored lake house, takes you back in time — in all the best ways. Just 37 feet from the water's edge, you'll be immersed in amazing sunsets, loon calls, and the tranquil beauty of Dollar Lake. The cozy living room occupies the original 1895 cabin, featuring the first of three fireplaces and panoramic view of the lake. The updated chef's kitchen makes cooking a dream with large island, induction range, 2 dishwashers and room for everyone around the table in front of the fireplace. The game room will keep everyone entertained on a rainy day with a large smart TV, sectional seating, game table and loads of fun. The second level features a sitting room with vaulted ceiling, workspace, and fireplace — a cozy place to converse, read a book or tackle a puzzle. You'll also find four unique queen-sized bedrooms and a laundry area. The kids will rush to the sleeping loft — the perfect hangout spot after a day of swimming.

Outside you'll enjoy the large permanent pier and floating swim dock, sandy-bottom swim area and plenty of water toys to keep you busy all day. Just outside the kitchen is a large patio featuring a 5-burner gas grill and a Solo Stove® Yukon fire pit, surrounded by comfortable Adirondack seating. PONTOON RENTAL NOW AVAILABLE! Ask about this new add-on!

Just five minutes from downtown Eagle River, Dollar Lake Retreat offers an unparalleled winter escape on private Dollar Lake—home to the USA Hockey Pond Hockey National Championships and Ice Driving USA's Subaru Winter Driving Experience. With direct access to 500+ miles of snowmobile trails through Vilas and Oneida counties, and nearby hiking in the Nicolet National Forest, there's adventure in every direction. After an action-packed day, unwind in cozy lakefront comfort, just a short drive from the Eagle River Chain of 28 Lakes and 40 minutes from Rhinelander-Oneida County Regional Airport (RHI) with daily flights to Minneapolis/St. Paul (MSP). Dollar Lake Retreat is the ideal destination for those seeking the best of Eagle River in every season.

Winter Family Getaway
Dollar Lake Retreat was the perfect spot for us to stay for a Christmas week of family fun. The large kitchen with its fireplace and long table was the gathering place every morning and evening for us to share time together. The views of dollar lake were a beautiful and ever changing winter landscape to enjoy. Our hosts took care of everything down to the smallest detail, and even decorated the house with Christmas Trees. We will definitely be back!!

If you want the best of the best with the most wonderful caring hosts, this is the place for you. We stayed in December of 2024 and it was cold and icy but... with 3 fireplaces one even in the kitchen we were so comfortable. A great little bar/restaurant just across the street is great and the lakeview even frozen is amazing! In fact, the owners were scraping the lake to make a real ice skating rink for future winter rentals too! It is absolutely perfection, comfortable beds, heaters that actually work in the baths so you won't freeze and a kitchen everyone could only dream of. If you have needs, they are there in a jiffy if you need restaurant or things to do advice too! A big giant tv in the game room and the laundry machines are big and top of the line! We loved out stay here, best rental we've ever rented and again, you could not have better hosts and the place was immaculate! Enjoy! We sure did!

Beautiful, functional, and comfy
This property is lovely! Everything was spotlessly clean. The house is very spacious with great views of DollarLake. There’s a really nice pier overlooking the lake where you can sit and watch wildlife or get a great view of sunsets and stars. The shore is sandy, so it would be ideal for swimming. Indoors, the kitchen is stocked with dishes and pans that looked brand new, as did all the appliances. There are several gas fireplaces to add warmth and ambience. The bedding was soft and comfy, that bathrooms were stocked with shower gel and shampoos. The decor is beautiful with warm wood paneling, beautiful wallpapers, and great artwork throughout the house. It’s almost impossible to describe all the amenities and fine touches that the hosts have provided. If you have a chance to stay here, do it!

Fall Stay
My girlfriends and I stay in Eagle River every fall. Angie and Kevin’s Dollar Resort so far is out favorite. As moms trying to relax the cleanliness and decor at this resort really made us feel like we were being treated to luxury. Hope to go back next year with better weather conditions to really take advantage of the lake and fire pit area. Lovely place.

Northern Nirvana!
So you may have read several reviews about this house and are wondering if it is as spectacular as everyone says it is ... can it really be that good? And I’m here to tell you, in the words of Elaine Benes on Seinfeld, “oh, it be!” Many times, rental listing pictures look much better than the actual home – not in this case! This place is the real deal and even more breathtaking in person. From the view of the lake & sunsets out of the massive picture windows, to the eclectic mix of modern convenience & midcentury vintage-y up north cabin design, to the fireplace in the cozy vibes kitchen, to the fabulously clean everything … no detail was overlooked. We’ve rented homes and condos in America and Europe. Never before have we enjoyed a rental where the homeowners anticipated our every possible need even before we actually thought of them! The attention to detail is unmatched and allowed us to immediately feel at home, at ease, welcome and relaxed. The owners have lovingly curated an environment full of personality by combining many unique and ‘found’ design elements – an environment that facilitates conversation, connection with each other and nature, contemplation, rest, recharging and all the fun things living on a lake entails. We are so grateful to have found our ‘up north nirvana’ - can’t wait to return! Thank you, Angie, Kevin and Lauren - you are such a kind & generous family to open this special home to others who share your appreciation of this magical place.

Warm memories at Dollar Lake Retreat
Our family travels to the Wisconsin Northwoods every year before school begins. Three families gathered together at Dollar Lake Retreat, and we couldn't have been any happier with our stay. The amount of water sport activities happily left us with no down time. However, when we did have a bit of rain, we had ample games and indoor delights to keep us busy...not t o mention a boat house ping pong table! We gathered around the long, beautiful dinner table on more than 1 occasion to share a meal cooked in the stunning kitchen - boundless amenities included. The hosts were so responsive and accommodating - reiterating the fact that we're on vacation, so no need to worry about anything. It truly was a blissful retreat from start to finish. We'll be returning next August!

Multi family summer vacation
Dollar Lake retreat was perfect for our summer family vacation! Angie and Kevin are super accommodating and make sure you have everything you need to have a fun, relaxing time! The house was very clean and there was plenty of room for our group of 14. We enjoyed the privacy of the lake and were able to catch lots of fish. The availability of the pontoon boat was a nice option as well! Definitely would recommend!

Hidden Jewel in the Northwoods!
This lovely lake home is newly renovated and perfect from top to bottom. The decor is so inviting and is truly the perfect combination of modern amenities and vintage cozy cabin feel! The picture windows overlooking the lake are phenomenal and the sunsets were the best I have EVER witnessed!!! We spent our days by the lake enjoying the paddle boards, kayaks and small fishing boat with trolling motor - our teenage boys loved taking the small boat out and to fish! Great fishing on this lake - we caught lots of big bass and perch! Spent our evenings in the cozy family room overlooking the lake, roasting s’mores out by the fire pit, or playing one of the many games provided in the fully stocked game room! The dock is beautiful with plenty of room to hang out and sunbathe, and the lake is PERFECTION offering a sandy bottom and that beautiful Northwoods clarity! The owners were so inviting and helpful, responding to any request right away. They even came over early one morning to empty the boats of water after a rainy night! Now that is service! We could not have asked for a better trip and have already booked our return stay. We’ll be back!

Pond Hockey
Angie and Kevin are not only great to work with but also incredibly accommodating throughout the whole process. They are committed to their guest's comfort and amenities while staying at the property. We came as part of the USA Hockey Pond Hockey Tournament and the proximity to the rinks is ideal. We will be returning. House is updated and appointed nicely. I can't say enough good things about the hosts - they even came to the tournament to take pictures. Thank you again and will see you again.

Escaping To Dollar Lake
We just returned from a three day Winter Weekend stay at this gorgeous lake home. We were two retired couples, old friends since first days out of University. The area received snow before our arrival and the cold that followed kept temperatures well below zero for the duration of our visit. The winter weather made Northern Wisconsin all the more beautiful. The Lakeview room was spectacular and the fireplace kept us cozy and warm, looking out on winter Lake scenes. It is the perfect spot for sunset cocktails. The Kitchen is my favorite part of this house. Angie & Kevin have refashioned the old kitchen into a central gathering spot for any sized group. The kitchen is stocked with anything and everything you will need. Seriously… Anything you might need for preparing, cooking or serving a meal, regardless the size of your group. Wonderful stove and oven, Two Dishwashers, large refrigerator and bountiful tableware are matched with the beautiful large dinner table and kitchen island. There’s multiple bathrooms upstairs and down and a great assortment of sleeping and sitting areas. Beds were delightful and the house is fully stocked with linens, towels and bedding. We didn’t use them during our stay but there’s a new washer and dryer. We had a wonderful Northwoods Winter getaway weekend. Can’t wait to come back next year!
