Step Away to the Northwoods: Cabintimers’ Guide to StepAway Vacation Rentals in St. Germain, WI. A RentWisconsinCabins.com Listing Partner Since 2023!

Cabintimers, set your sights on lake country. StepAway Vacation Rentals anchors your Northwoods escape in St. Germain—right where fishing stories begin, bikes roll past pines, and winter trails hum with sleds. Their year‑round cabins and vacation homes put you close to the water, the trailheads, and the kind of small‑town stops that turn a weekend into a tradition.

Why StepAway works for Cabintimers

StepAway Vacation Rentals offers a range of pet‑friendly and family‑ready homes with the comfort perks Cabintimers crave—full kitchens, outdoor spaces, easy parking for trailers, and access to lakes and trails. Pick a classic cabin on a quiet shore, a multi‑bedroom home for a crew, or a hideout with a sauna or hot tub. You’re not just getting a place to sleep; you’re getting Northwoods access—dock time at sunrise, s’mores under a big sky, and first tracks on the trail.

Book direct for the win. You’ll skip service fees, talk with local managers who know the waters and woods, and get straight answers on boat rentals, snowmobile access, and the best fish fry in town. No middleman, no mystery.

Where you’ll be playing

St. Germain & Sayner

  • Heart of Vilas County Bike Trail System: More than 50 miles of smooth, paved trail connect St. Germain, Sayner, Boulder Junction, and beyond. Morning pedal with loons calling? Yes, please.
  • Awassa Nature Preserve: A mellow network of forest paths right in St. Germain—great for a first‑day leg stretch with kids.
  • Snowmobile Hall of Fame & Museum: Racing sleds, vintage iron, and Northwoods stories. It’s a must‑stop on a cold day.
  • Bo‑Boen Snowmobile Trails: When the flakes stack up, this club’s groomed routes are legendary. Trailers fit easily at many StepAway homes.

Eagle River

  • The World’s Largest Chain of Freshwater Lakes: Launch for walleye at dawn or cruise past islands on a slow afternoon.
  • Shops & snacks: Warm up between runs with coffee, bakery stops, or a classic supper club.

Minocqua & Woodruff

  • Northern Highland–American Legion State Forest: Hundreds of lakes and miles of trail for paddling, birding, and snowshoeing.
  • Min‑Aqua Bats Water Ski Show (summer): Free shows that turn Lake Minocqua into a stage—bring a lawn chair and cheer.

Seasonal trip ideas

Spring: Chase panfish in warming bays, bike the Heart of Vilas with maples budding, and sit by the fire when the temps dip after sunset.

Summer: Dock a pontoon at lunch, watch eagles hunt the shoreline, and end the day with sunsets that linger forever. Families love sandy shallows for splash time.

Fall: Color tours by bike or ATV/UTV, pumpkin‑patch detours, and evenings that pair chili with a star‑packed sky.

Winter: Sledding on the Bo‑Boen system, cross‑country loops in the state forest, and hot‑mug mornings before first tracks. Ice anglers, bring the shack and swap stories at dusk.

Smart planning tips from local managers

  • Trail access matters: Ask which cabins connect fastest to sled or ATV routes.
  • Boat & toy logistics: Many driveways handle trailers. Confirm dock dimensions and water depth for your rig.
  • Bring the crew: Multi‑bedroom homes with second living spaces keep early birds and night owls happy.
  • Pets welcome: Several rentals allow well‑behaved dogs—get the rules and nearby dog‑friendly beaches.

Cabintimer itinerary blueprint (weekend version)

Friday: Arrive, quick grocery run, sunset dock time. Sheet‑pan nachos, then board games.

Saturday: Morning pedal on the Heart of Vilas. Lunch in town. Afternoon paddle or swim. Golden‑hour photos on the pier, then a cabin fish fry.

Sunday: Coffee on the deck, a museum stop or short hike, and one last cast before checkout. Everyone leaves a little lake‑soaked and grinning.

Pitlik’s Sand Beach Resort: Classic Northwoods Cabin Life on the Sugar Camp Chain. A RentWisconsinCabins.com Listing Partner Since 2022!

Pitlik’s Sand Beach Resort: Classic Northwoods Cabin Life on the Sugar Camp Chain. A RentWisconsinCabins.com Listing Partner Since 2022!

If your radar is pinging for a true Up North cabin experience, set your sights on Pitlik’s Sand Beach Resort in Eagle River, Wisconsin. Since 1928, this family-run resort has welcomed generations to its shoreline on Sand Lake—part of the five-lake Sugar Camp Chain. Cabins are spread along a gentle slope with tall pines, sandy swim areas, boat docks, and that easygoing Northwoods pace that nudges you outside before breakfast and brings you back to a crackling fire after dark.

Cabins for couples, families, and the whole crew

Pitlik’s offers a mix of classic log cabins and larger rentals. Expect full kitchens, lakeside porches, cozy gathering spaces, and that satisfying “pair of boots by the door” simplicity. Some layouts cater to couples seeking quiet mornings on the pier; others are perfect for multi-family trips with bunkrooms, big tables for card games, and space to spread out. Pets are welcome in select cabins, and many rentals sit steps from the sand—so the coffee-to-kayak commute is about thirty seconds.

Quick Cabin Guide: Snappy blurbs for every stay

You & I – Cozy 1BR just steps from Sand Lake with a front-row sunrise view; couples love the quiet porch time and easy walk to the water.

Clearview – Modern 2BR close to shore with a queen room, twin room, and a bright lake outlook for morning coffee duty.

Oakcrest – A 2BR classic with tub/shower and an easy lakeside vantage—simple, comfortable, and close to the action.

Lagoon – Breezy 2BR near the beach with queen + twins and a tub/shower—quick launch for swims, paddles, and dock hangs.

Knotty Pine – One of the originals: roomy 3BR log cabin with wood-burning stove and screened porch—great for card nights after sunset cruises.

Outlet – 3BR peninsula perch where water wraps three sides; windows frame the shoreline and the vibe is all “waves for soundtrack.”

Bayview North – Full-log 2BR+loft with wood stove and fieldstone chimney; big deck connects to Bayview South for group getaways.

Bayview South – Twin to North: queen main floor, three twins in the loft, 1.5 baths, and a hilltop panorama over the Sand Lake thoroughfare.

Lakeview – 3BR full-log showpiece with spiral stair to the loft, two baths, and sliding doors to a patio aimed right at the lake.

Eagle’s Nest – 3BR full-log with loft sleeping, roll-in shower on main, and patio access—easy flow between lakeside lounging and fireside chats.

Chalet – 3BR lofted log cabin with stone chimney, spiral stair, and patio—room for eight and space to stash rods, boards, and boots.

Lookout – 3BR with that classic log-home warmth—wood stove, two baths, and a layout made for big breakfasts and bigger lake days.

Moonshine (upstairs lodge unit) – 2BR above the main lodge with open kitchen/living, laundry, and lake views; expect some downstairs buzz during restaurant hours.

Premier Lakehomes (non-resort, separate terms)
Chain Lake Hideaway – 2BR waterfront (plus sleeper) 1.5 miles from the lodge; gas fireplace, laundry, patio, private dock—pets considered.

Dam Lake Villa – 3BR lakefront (sleeps up to 9) 1.6 miles from the lodge; 3-season villa with built-in grill/bar, fireplace, laundry—pets considered.

Sand Lake Lakehouse – 4BR on Sand Lake with two levels of sleeping space, gas fireplace, modern kitchen, washer/dryer, southern-exposure deck—pets considered.

Eat & drink at the Lodge (and don’t miss Friday Fish Fry)

A huge part of the Pitlik’s experience happens at the main lodge. Stop in for hearty plates, Wisconsin tap favorites, and the resort’s famous Ultimate Bloody Mary. It’s social, it’s lively, and it’s always a short walk back to your cabin. When the fish fry bell rings on Friday, locals and resort guests make a beeline—arrive hungry.

Life on the Sugar Camp Chain

Five connected lakes—Sand, Dam, Chain, Stone, and Echo—mean endless routes for pontoon cruising, paddling, and fishing. Anglers chase panfish, bass, walleye, and yes, musky. The sandy swim area is friendly for kids, and calm morning water is tailor-made for paddleboards. Bring or rent a boat and spend the day lake-hopping, then drift back to your pier as loons call across the bay.

Four seasons of play

Summer is for swims, s’mores, and sunny boat days. Fall turns the shoreline into a fiery color show with cool nights perfect for the fireplace. Winter flips the script: Eagle River is a snowmobile capital with state trails linking right from the resort, plus cross-country skiing, ice fishing, sledding, and nearby downhill options. Spring? Quiet woods, migrating birds, and glassy, crowd-free water.

Nearby things to do in Eagle River & St. Germain

You’re a short drive from mini-golf, go-karts, horseback riding, local events, and trail systems. Golfers can pick from several public courses. Rain in the forecast? Pop into town for a museum stop, a bakery run, or a browse through outfitter shops. Winter visitors should mark the World Championship Snowmobile Derby on the calendar—part spectacle, part tradition.

Why Cabintimers book direct at Pitlik’s

Cabintimers know: booking direct with the resort is the smart move. You skip third-party service fees, get accurate availability, and talk with people who actually know which pier gets morning sun and which cabin has the roomiest table for your board-game tournament. You’ll also hear about shoulder-season savings, holiday openings, and boat rental details straight from the source.

Trip-planning tips

  • Bring layers. Even in July, evenings by the lake feel cooler than town.
  • Pack a lightweight tackle kit and a pair of camp shoes that can get wet.
  • Plan a shore lunch. Fresh fish, lemon, butter, a cast-iron pan—done.
  • Schedule at least one “stay put” day. No driving, just dock time, paddling, lodge snacks, repeat.

Ready to become part of the tradition? Explore accommodations, check dates, and contact Pitlik’s Sand Beach Resort directly to book like a Cabintimer—no middleman, no extra fees, all the local intel.

Go With the Flow: Cabins on the West Fork at Nature Nooks Retreat (Viroqua, WI). As Seen on RentWisconsinCabins.com Since 2013!

Nature's Nooks WI

If your version of cabin time includes paddling quiet water, casting for trout at first light, and stargazing after the campfire settles, point your compass to Nature Nooks Retreat in Viroqua. This 87-acre hideaway lays out one peaceful mile of the West Fork of the Kickapoo River right on the property—plus complimentary kayaks and tubes so Cabintimers can slip in and explore at their own pace. Trails ribbon through prairie, wetlands, and woods, with wildlife around every bend.

Nature Nooks leans all-in on sustainability, which makes staying here feel even better. The retreat is 100% solar-powered (48 panels) and has an EV charging station for two vehicles. It’s also recognized as a Travel Green certified business—so your getaway treads lighter while you kick back.

Pick Your Place to Stay

The Lodge fits up to 12 with eight separate beds, a light-filled living area, woodstove warmth, and a screened porch that begs for long conversations. Little Barn Cabin sleeps six in a modern, wood-rich space with sunrise and sunset views from its two decks. Planning a retreat, workshop, or family reunion HQ? Kinship Place is a timber-framed meeting and lodging space with floor-to-ceiling glass, a full kitchen, projector/sound system, dinner service for 36, seating for meetings up to 40, and room for up to four overnight guests. All guests share free access to the kayaks/tubes, game room, and trails.

Nature's Nooks WI

Four-Season Fun Around Viroqua & Westby

Ten miles up the valley, the Kickapoo Valley Reserve spreads across 8,600+ acres with miles of hiking, biking, skiing, and a famously meandering paddle route—it’s a Driftless classic. Back in Viroqua, stretch your legs on Sidie Hollow’s lakeside trails or bring a rod for its 38-acre lake. When it’s time to toast the day, Vernon Vineyards pours local wines with ridge-top views. Winter visit? Check the Snowflake Ski Club calendar in nearby Westby—this volunteer-run complex hosts ski-jump events and even has a nine-hole golf course at the base of the jump come warm weather.

Insider Tips for Cabintimers

Bring water shoes—the river bottom is rocky in places. Anglers should know the West Fork here is Class I trout water and strictly catch-and-release on the property with barbless hooks (license required). Little ones in tow? The owners keep field guides, nature DVDs, and even a microscope on hand. No pets allowed, and you won’t miss cable—there’s fiber internet for streaming plus a rec room with pool, ping-pong, foosball and more for rainy-day fun. Best of all, Tom and Pam live on site, greet guests, and are happy to share paddling pointers or a favorite trail.

Deer Lake Resort: Your Own 40‑Acre Lake + 9‑Bedroom Northwoods Lodge in Winchester, WI. A RentWisconsinCabins.com Listing Partner Since 2018!

Deer Lake Resort: Your Own 40‑Acre Lake + 9‑Bedroom Northwoods Lodge in Winchester, WI. A RentWisconsinCabins.com Listing Partner Since 2018!

Big week ahead? Bring the whole crew to Deer Lake Resort in Winchester, Wisconsin. Cabintimers get the rare combo here: a private, 40‑acre, electric‑only lake wrapped by nearly two square miles of forest and a 9,000‑sq‑ft lodge that sleeps up to 20. It’s quiet. It’s spacious. And it’s set up for easy living and long lake days—without neighbors peeking over the dock.

Why Cabintimers love this Winchester, WI cabin rental

This is a true large‑group basecamp. You’ll find nine bedrooms and six full baths, including a 1,000‑sq‑ft bunk room with its own sitting area and fireplace. There are four fireplaces total, multiple family rooms with lake views, and a lakeside screened porch perfect for morning coffee or late‑night card games. The oversized dining/family room overlooks the water and gives everyone a place to gather without squeezing onto pullouts.

The kitchen was remodeled recently and is stocked to feed a crowd: two coffee makers plus a 50‑cup brewer, two slow cookers, a convection oven, commercial gas cooktop, two full‑size refrigerators, and a stand‑up freezer. Bar seating for six keeps the cooks company while they work. Pro tip for planners: bring the spice kit and a menu—this kitchen can handle it.

On‑the‑water fun (all included)

Because Deer Lake is private and electric‑only, the water stays calm and wildlife hangs close. Fishing is catch‑and‑release and the lake has been stocked with walleye over the years, along with northern, crappie, and panfish. Your group can spread out on the private sand beach, swim platform, and dock. Boats and toys are part of the package: kayaks, canoes, paddle board, paddle boats, two 14‑ft fishing boats with electric motors, a two‑person electric pontoon, and a 6–8 person electric pontoon. Want to waterski? There’s a slip on nearby Birch Lake for your motorboat.

Game on, rain or shine

The lower‑level game room keeps kids and night owls happy with ping‑pong, foosball, and video games. Outside, set up volleyball on the big lawn, shoot hoops, or gather by the firepit. There’s also a hot tub and multiple decks when you’re ready to unwind.

Trail time & town time

Just a few miles away, WinMan Trails offers 20+ miles of groomed biking and hiking. Paved paths connect you to Manitowish Waters, Boulder Junction, and Presque Isle for ice cream runs, coffee stops, and souvenir browsing. Day‑trip options include Lake Superior’s beaches and scenic shoreline. Closer to home you’ll find golf courses, supper clubs, antique shops, and even underground caves. Pack for adventure and see where the day takes you.

Good to know

• Pets are considered—bring the four‑legged family if approved.

• Linens and beach towels are provided. There’s a washer/dryer and even an outdoor rinse station.

Why Cabintimers Love Merry Dale

The beach gets sun all day thanks to southern exposure, so swimming is easy and warm. The gradual entry is great for little legs. Between dips, kids sprint back to a big park-style playground and open green space. Every cabin includes a 14′ aluminum boat, with kayaks and a canoe ready on shore; add a motor or ask about pontoon rentals if you want a longer cruise. Anglers find panfish, walleye, bass, northern pike, and musky right on Lake George. Come any season—the resort is open year-round for summer swims, fall color, winter trail rides, and spring fishing.

On the trails: Rhinelander and Oneida County serve up hundreds of miles of snowmobile trails. When the snow flies, start right from the resort area and roam deep into the Northwoods.

Easy kid wins: Beach time, hot chocolate by the fire, then playground time. Repeat.

Nearby Things To Do (Rhinelander & beyond)

Hodag Park — Picnic by the water, catch a community concert, or watch a sunset over Boom Lake.

Rhinelander Brewing Company — Order a flight, grab merch, and toast the Northwoods.

Tips for Cabintimers

Bring properly sized life jackets for everyone. Wisconsin requires wearable PFDs for all watercraft. Launch early or later in the day for prime fishing and calm paddling; midday is made for the beach. Visiting in shoulder seasons? Ask about pet-friendly stays and the latest snowmobile trail updates.

Skip third-party fees. Speak with local owners who know the lake, the fish, and the best trailheads. Check availability and send questions straight to the team:

Why Cabintimers book with Hiller

Hiller Vacation Homes focuses on lake time. You’ll find properties on sought‑after lakes in the Northwoods with private piers, fire pits, and full kitchens. Need space for a crowd?

Make it a true lake trip with marine rentals

Hiller can outfit your stay with pontoon boats, bass boats, kayaks, and stand‑up paddleboards. Keep the group together on a roomy pontoon. Chase walleye and musky from a bass boat. Or glide into a quiet bay by kayak at sunset. Booking your watercraft with the same local crew keeps things simple, so your vacation stays all about the water.

Where to stay (and play)

Eagle River This is legendary lake country. The 28‑lake chain delivers miles of cruising, sandbars for swimming, and year‑round fishing. Wander Main Street for ice cream and sweet shops. Fall brings cranberry season and festive events. Winter turns the area into a playground with cross‑country trails and a storied snowmobile scene.

St. Germain Pick your pace here. Pedal the Heart of Vilas County Bike & Hike Trail for smooth miles through tall pines and lakes. In winter, visit the Snowmobile Hall of Fame and ride a well‑marked network that links to hundreds of miles of trails. St. Germain also has family‑friendly beaches and easy lake access—perfect for a first paddleboard session or a lazy pontoon afternoon.

Minocqua Minocqua is known for serious time on the water. Spend your days boating, skiing, paddling, and casting. When snow flies, Minocqua Winter Park delivers groomed trails for cross‑country skiing, fat biking, snowshoeing, and a tubing hill on select days. It’s a solid home base for winter fans and summer lake‑hoppers alike.

Three Lakes On the south end of the world‑famous chain, Three Lakes serves up a quieter vibe with endless coves to explore. Pack a picnic and cruise between lakes. Hike or ride into the nearby national forest. Even on a busy weekend, you can find a calm stretch of shoreline.

Resort lodging with a Northwoods feel

Prefer a classic resort setting with cabins close together and easy on‑site amenities? Hiller also offers resort stays through Birchwood Resort, Elbert’s Resort on Little St. Germain Lake, Hiller’s Pine Haven, Woodhill Resort on the Minocqua Chain, and Wilderness Bay Lodge & Resort on the Cisco Chain just over the border in Michigan’s U.P. You still book direct with local pros, and you still get that authentic up‑north experience.

Trip‑planning tips for Cabintimers

Summer brings warm water, long days, and nightly campfires. Book early if you want a specific lake or a pontoon rental for a holiday week.

Fall means crisp mornings, glass‑calm paddles, and a blaze of color on the shoreline. It’s a favorite time for anglers and hikers.

Winter is king in the Northwoods. Bring the sleds, wax the skis, and pair your cabin with a hot cocoa trail stop and a night around the fireplace.

Spring is quiet, budget‑friendly, and packed with wildlife sightings. Great for remote work weeks and long weekends.

How to book (and save)

Go straight to the source. Book directly with Hiller Vacation Homes to avoid traveler fees, get transparent rates, and tap into local knowledge. Ask about pet‑friendly stays, trailer parking for snowmobiles, and pairing a cabin with a pontoon or fishing boat.
