Spacious and clean

The house is spacious and clean. The lake is pretty nice, but no fish. Good for swimming when the weather is warmer. It is located in between Eagle River and Minocqua, got to see all 3 towns.

Annual ski trip

This was the 35th year of our ski trip and while we had no skiable snow, we did hiking and ice fishing. We appreciated the large house with multiple sitting areas. Kitchen was well equipped too. Very nice to have the garage available to store ice fishing gear!

4th of July

Great for a large group! Plenty of space for everyone to be together and separate as needed.Unfortunately, the beds were very hard making a good nights rest impossible. The ladder on the dock was missing many rungs and made it difficult to exit the water.

Weekend Getaway For Larger Groups

It was super easy and efficient booking with Hiller Properties. They were accommodating and prompt with service. The house and property itself is gorgeous. It was perfect for our weekend getaway with friends. My only complaint was how dirty the deck/warming shack/dock were. We spent a good chunk of our time sweeping off the cobwebs and pollen. Overall, we would stay again.

New Years Celebration

A huge home that still feels cozy and welcoming. We had a large group and dogs all there was still plenty of open space for gear, luggage and no need to dance around each other. Very private, beautiful view and yet close to town for supplies, shopping etc. We enjoyed the gazebo fire pit for an entire afternoon which made for a special way to have several age ranges just chat and share stories. Great time! Thanks for sharing your lovely home with us!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We absolutely loved our stay at Sweet Home Hiawatha. 15 of us (4 families) celebrated my husbands 60th birthday and it was perfect. The house was very comfortable, well stocked with everything we needed and a perfect location to the snowmobile trails. Our dog loved the fenced in yard! The large kitchen and large living room were perfect and my husband (who still thinks he’s in college) loved the football table in the lower level. Thank you!

Hiawatha Review 5 June to 9 June 2022

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The cabin was lovely and very clean and met all of our expectations. However, the 8:00 AM check out was a bit of a problem. One of our party was recovering from back surgery and doesn't move real fast. On several occasions I requested a later check out even, 9:00 would have been nice, but I was told that this was not possible. Heck, even 2 star hotels will accommodate later check outs.

Sweet Home Hiawatha

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed at the home in early August; group of 10(5 adults, 5 teens, two dogs). The house was great—more than enough room for our party. The fenced in area off the patio was perfect for the dogs to run. My elderly father in law thoroughly enjoyed the many deer walking through the yard and visiting the feeder. Kids informed us after the fact that the tubs upstairs did not drain—probably could be ‘snaked’, minor fix. We were disappointed with the lake frontage—this is not swimming frontage by any means. The shoreline is boggy and muck. It’s 5-6’ deep at the end of the dock, but again, all muck and black water. Great pan fishing there, but we caught a few turtles, including snappers (again, not ideal for swimming). We were able to work with the great staff in the Hiller Office and rented a pontoon on little St. Germain for a day for the kids to swim. We did a lot of fun things in town to make up for not having a swim area. This would be a perfect property to visit in Fall or Winter, but if you’re looking for a summer lake house, you may want to reconsider. Again, beautiful home, just not what we had hoped for on the lake.

Beautiful place to gather. Plenty of room for everyone.

This beautiful home has everything you need for a vacation. The large kitchen and tables allowed everyone to be included around the tables. It included everything we needed ~ very comfortable. There was room for parking, extra refrigerator space, sleeps 22, lots of room to spread out. We completely enjoyed ourselves. We brought our family together to snowmobile. It would also be a great place for a summer family gathering!
