Claim 300 Feet of Sandy Shore at Hoppe’s Haven on Crescent Lake. A RentWisconsinCabins.com Listing Partner Since 2020!

If lake time is your love language, this Rhinelander cabin speaks it fluently. Hoppe’s Haven sits on a 5‑acre hardwood tract with 300 feet of private shoreline on 600‑acre Crescent Lake and a hard, sandy-bottom swim area with a raft—a rare combo Cabintimers rave about. Add in your own private dock, lakeside fire pit, and an aluminum fishing boat, and you’ve got a Northwoods base where the water is the main event and the sunsets do their thing every evening.

Quick look

  • Location: Rhinelander, Wisconsin (aka Hodag Country)
  • Bedrooms: 2 (double beds)
  • Bath: 1 (shower)
  • Sleeps: 6 (studio couch on the enclosed porch)
  • Pets: Sorry, no pets
  • Stay length: 3‑night minimum; weekly in summer
  • Bonus: Motor rental available (9.9 HP) if you want to roam the lake with ease

What makes this cabin special

Swimmable shoreline steps from the door. Walk-in, sandy-bottom water that’s perfect for little swimmers and low‑key float sessions. That raft? It’ll get plenty of use.

Anglers’ playground. Crescent Lake is clear, deep, and stocked with opportunities—musky, walleye, northern, bass, and panfish. There’s a fish cleaning station back on shore and a private dock for your boat (or the on‑site rental motor).

Wallet‑friendly weeklong stays. This is one of the most affordable waterfront vacation homes in the Northwoods. Book direct to keep more of your budget for bait, ice cream runs, and a Hodag hoodie.

Inside the cabin

The vibe is unfussy and comfortable—everything you need for a full‑week lake fix. A furnished kitchen (stove/oven, fridge, microwave, coffee maker) keeps breakfasts easy and fish‑fry nights fun. Linens are provided, and the enclosed porch doubles as extra sleeping space and a hangout for late‑night card games. After sunset, head for the fire ring or catch a game or movie with satellite/cable.

Outside is the star

Morning coffee on the deck. Midday swims off the sandy shoreline. Paddle or putter along the shoreline, then grill out and swap fish tales around the fire. Boat and trailer parking makes arrival simple, and you’re close to town when it’s time to restock.

Close to everything Cabintimers love

Rhinelander eats & traditions. This is supper club country—come hungry for Friday night fish fry. Pubs are friendly and portions generous.

Trails for days. Hike or bike the scenic Bearskin State Trail, a historic 18‑mile route that crosses lakes and wetlands between downtown Minocqua and Harshaw. Mountain biking, horseback riding, and ATV/UTV routes are nearby, plus snowmobile trails when the flakes fly.

Golf with Northwoods character. Play the area’s standout courses; crisp air, tall pines, and rolling greens make every round feel like a little victory lap.

Easy arrivals. Flying in? You’re close to the Rhinelander–Oneida County Airport, so meeting the crew at the cabin is a breeze.

Who this place is for

  • Swim‑happy families who want gradual, sandy entry and room to splash.
  • Anglers chasing musky at dawn and panfish for a kid‑approved shore lunch.

SweetWater Resort on Fish Trap Lake: A Classic Minnesota Cabin Basecamp for Family Fun. A RentMinnesotaCabins.com Listing Partner Since 2013!

Looking for a laid-back, lakeside spot where the kids can chase minnows, you can troll for walleye at sunrise, and everyone meets around the campfire after dark? SweetWater Resort in Cushing, Minnesota puts Cabintimers right on Fish Trap Lake with knotty-pine cabins, a sandy swim beach, free use of kayaks/canoes/paddle boats, and boat and pontoon rentals when you want to roam the water. The resort is open May 1–November 30, and it’s proudly old-school—no TVs or in-cabin phones—so you can unplug without losing touch thanks to free Wi-Fi.

Cabins for Couples, Families, and Big Crews

Pick from cozy two-bedroom cabins near the shoreline, larger three-bedroom options, a roomy lakeside house, or the wheelchair-friendly 6-bedroom Reunion House with screened porch and lower-level patio—great for multi-family trips. Pack bath and kitchen towels and paper goods; the cabins come furnished with full kitchens and outdoor spaces that stare straight at the lake.

Beach Days, Craft Time, and Loons at Dusk

SweetWater’s clean, gradual-slope swimming area is made for sandcastles and splash time, while the Gathering Space offers creative projects like stone art and stepping stones for rainy afternoons or chill mornings. Evenings are easy: roast s’mores and listen for loons before bed.

Why Fish Trap Lake Hooks Cabintimers

With more than 1,100 acres, Fish Trap Lake holds walleye, northern pike, largemouth and smallmouth bass, crappie, and more. Launch a dawn patrol for walleye, work weedlines for pike, or slide into quiet coves for panfish with the kids. Public access and docks make getting on the water simple.

Minutes to Tee Times and Day Trips

Got golfers in the group? Pine Ridge Golf Club in Motley is a short drive—18 holes, friendly rates, and a pretty north woods layout. When you’re ready to explore, Brainerd/Baxter sits about a half hour away with Safari North Wildlife Park (open seasonally) for giraffe feeding, camel rides, and a mini safari train. History buffs can head to Little Falls to walk through the Charles A. Lindbergh House and Museum and riverside state park trails.

Trip Planning Tips

  • Season: SweetWater Resort is open May 1–Nov 30; some cabins operate on a shorter seasonal window—check dates when you book.
  • Bring: Bath/kitchen towels and paper goods.
  • Boating: Rent fishing boats or a pontoon on site; kayaks/canoes/paddle boats are complimentary.
  • Unplug factor: No TVs/phones in cabins, but free Wi-Fi keeps you connected.

Why Book Direct with SweetWater Resort

Skip third-party fees and talk to locals who actually live the lake life every day. Direct booking means better communication on boat rentals, availability windows, and the best bite for walleye or crappie this week. You’ll also get the scoop on which cabin suits your crew and how to line up tee times at Pine Ridge.

When the lake calls, answer with a stay at SweetWater Resort—pack the tackle box, a good hoodie for the fire ring, and your crew of Cabintimers. Ready to go? Visit the resort website and book directly with the owner/manager to avoid service fees and get real, local advice.

Dickerson’s Lake Florida Resort in Spicer, MN: Lakefront Cabins, Warm Traditions, Easy Fun. A RentMinnesotaCabins.com Listing Partner Since 2014!

Cabintimers, meet a Minnesota classic. Dickerson’s Lake Florida Resort puts you right on the sand with 13 lakefront cabins, a level beach, and a week full of simple traditions that keep families coming back. Cookies at check‑in. Fresh donuts on Sunday. Pizza picnic on Monday. A kids’ hayride and campfire on Thursday. It feels like summer should.

Lakefront cabins made for together time

Choose from 1–5 bedroom cabins that sit steps from the beach. Many have gas fireplaces and ceiling fans. All have air conditioning. Kitchens come ready for meals with a refrigerator, gas stove, microwave, drip coffee maker, toaster, cookware, and dishes. Bed linens and feather pillows are provided. Each cabin has a deck or picnic table for lakeside meals and board games.

What to pack: your bath and kitchen towels, soaps, and paper products. Wi‑Fi is available throughout the resort. Smoke‑free grounds keep the air fresh. Pets stay home.

Sandy beach + free water toys = all‑day play

Lake Florida is spring‑fed and clear—perfect for swimming, paddling, and sandcastle marathons. The beach is wide and flat, so little feet can wander from towel to water with ease. Guests use kayaks, a paddleboat, canoe, inner tubes, hydro bikes, fun bugs, and even a sailboat—free. On shore, bikes, trikes, wagons, swing sets, and a jungle gym keep the fun rolling.

Fishing that hooks every age

Lake Florida spans 674 acres and is known for walleye and largemouth bass. Northern pike, crappies, and sunfish round out the catch. Kids often pull panfish right off the dock. Clean your haul in the on‑site fish cleaning room. Bring your own boat and launch at the public access on the north side of the lake, or rent a motor or pontoon at the resort.

Traditions that taste like vacation

Dickerson’s lakefront resort is famous for the little things that make a week feel special. You’ll arrive to a plate of warm chocolate chip cookies in your cabin. On Sunday morning, owners Bob and Connie serve fresh donuts with coffee and juice. Monday evening, the whole crew gathers for a pizza picnic—watch how fast the slices disappear. Thursday brings a classic hayride for the kids, followed by a campfire and gooey s’mores for everyone.

How the week flows

Prime summer weeks run Saturday to Friday, which gives Cabintimers a full final day on the water. Spring and fall reservations are more flexible. Mention any special needs—cribs, highchairs, motors—when you book so everything’s ready on arrival.

Day trips around Spicer, New London, and Willmar

Sibley State Park (New London) offers miles of trails and a short climb to the Mount Tom overlook. Bring the camera.

Glacial Lakes State Trail is a paved route connecting Willmar, Spicer, and New London. Bike, push a stroller, or skate a few miles before cooling off at the beach.

Prairie Woods Environmental Learning Center in Spicer runs hands‑on outdoor programs—archery, climbing, canoeing, and nature experiences for all ages.

Big Kahuna Fun Park adds go‑karts, bumper boats, and an 18‑hole mini‑golf course to your itinerary. Great for a cloudy afternoon.

Little Crow Ski Team performs Friday‑night water‑ski shows at Neer Park in New London throughout summer. Pack lawn chairs and cheer on the pyramids.

Stroll shops and cafés in New London and Spicer. Cruise Green Lake. Bike the trails in Willmar. Back at the resort, end the day with a sunset swim.
