Wisconsin Vacation cabins & cottages that include boats!

If you like cabins and cottages – you’ll love these choices because they include boats! Fishing boats, canoes, kayaks and paddle-boats are common and are often included in your rental fee. Though you should expect outboard motors and gas to be extra.

There are about 100 vacation rentals that include some type of boat. Here are several options we found to get you paddling in the right direction.

Vacationing in Large Groups

Make sure the smiles are for real!

This summer my family is having a reunion at the same Northern-Wisconsin resort my parents owned in the 70’s and 80’s. Hats-off to my mom who is organizing the trip for 16 to 18 people. Heck, organizing a weekend getaway for my family 4 (5 with the dog) is nearly impossible.

Do you have what it takes to organize a large group?

Leadership
Don’t go into the leadership role halfway; reluctant leadership is worse than none at all. Remember, the best leaders actively delegate.

People
Avoid looking back on your trip and saying, “we should have done some group psychological testing before the trip.” I know, it’s not practical to ask my two sisters, (I mean) everyone you’re considering traveling with to submit to testing (no matter how tempting the idea is). But, if your group came together by happenstance; the Leader should ask questions. There are no “right” or “wrong” answers; their greatest value is self-awareness.

General Attitudes
The passive/aggressive is the achilles heel of any travel group. They will not state their needs up front, but they will openly complain during and after the fact if their needs are not met. Avoid them at all costs! Get answers…How much time do you want/expect to spend with the group? How much alone? What travel pace do you prefer?

Money
Differing attitudes about money is one of the key factors leading to divorce. If $ can split up people who plan to spend their lives together, imagine what it can do to those who’ve only committed to 7 days of togetherness. Ask about equally handling big expenses (example, damages to rental property) which we know would never really happen.

Do everything you can to enjoy your vacation and, if you have accepted the role of Leader, part of your job is to help your entire group SMILE.

  • If you know where you want to go, use the interactive Map and ZOOM IN on the area to see the rentals. Keep zooming in and you’ll start to see individual pins for EVERY RENTAL UNIT. When you see tight clusters of pins, you’ve found Multi-cabin resorts. Keep zooming in and you’ll notice that we display PINS for individual resort cottages! Each pin is clickable.
The second thing you’ll notice is that EVERY property listing NOW HAS A FULL DETAILS PAGE. You wanted more property information, availability calendars, lots of pictures. We even provide property links to Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and more! If a property is running a rental-special, you’ll find it on their details page! Find links to the owner’s official website.

Our new website design went Live on November 9. We are still making some minor adjustments, and would appreciate any feedback, because RentWisconsinCabins.com is for YOU.
