A Little Slice of Heaven on The Waupaca Chain O'Lakes

This property is on beautiful Taylor Lake in Waupaca, Wisconsin. The cabin has a recently updated interior and exterior. The cabin has central air. The cottage sits 60 feet from the water and the views of the lake are great. The frontage doesn't allow for swimming but a quick kayak or paddleboard trip will get you to a beautiful sandbar.
The property is next door to the boat launch on Taylor Lake so the weekends can be busy. Enjoy a day boating, paddle boarding, canoeing, etc., there is so much to see and do on the Waupaca Chain. A firepit is available for having a campfire at night. There are two wonderful restaurants within a short drive/boat. Harbor Bar has great food and live music and The Wheelhouse is known for their wonderful pizza. Behind the wheelhouse is the infamous "Scoopers" and has the best ice cream in town. Nothing cools the sunburn like a fresh scoop of Scoopers Ice Cream. Tom Thumb mini golf is also a short boat/drive away and is a great time for the kids. Waupaca has everything you would need as far as grocery and stores and the hub is only 2-3 miles from the cabin.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned cottage, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private patio. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.
Take in the views from a garden and make use of amenities such as barbecue grills.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Taylor lake cottage

Clean property.Easy access to lake; just a few steps. Nice outdoor deck. Dock for a pontoon. Washer in dryer, on-site. Air conditioning and garage a plus.Across the lake is Harbour restaurant.Easy to get to, down fall next to public boat launch, gets congested. Older home and small shower.

Overall stay

Location was great and being able to rent the boat was a huge plus. Was disappointed that we had to make the beds and cobwebs all over the house and that they didn't provide bath towels or mention to bring any. Also didn't enjoy his friend stopping over twice to get something from the garage.

Great Place

If you're looking for over the top luxury this is not the place for you, but if you are looking for what the chain is meant to be this is the place. Great location, view, and everything you need for a cabin vacation on the lake. I have been coming to the chain my entire life and this house has the exact same feel as my family's old house(still on McCrossen). I would highly recommend staying here if your idea of a chain/lake vacation is 90% outdoors with easy access to the water.

Great location with wonderful views

First time visit to the chain o'lakes and we loved it! It was so fun to be able to walk to the darling village of King but also enjoyed the ease of this VRBO with the ability to use the pontoon boat at our leisure. We will definitely be returning!

We stayed at this location for our daughter's wedding. It was a rather nice stay and extremely close to where we needed to be. The weekend was very busy so there wasn't much time to enjoy what one would normally do for a weekend away.

The property was very close to the water which was nice but is located next door to a boat launch so it’s pretty loud. The owner was very responsive with any questions I had.

Cozy cottage feel.

Worked great for two families. The owner rented us a pontoon boat and he was easily accessible to answer any questions. Perfect weekend for us. This place has a great view of the harbor bar and includes being able to hear late night music from there (if desired) or close the windows and enjoy great air conditioning. Also, the big paddle boat going passed a few times a day is nice also.

Cute Cabin - Perfect Location

We rented this property to spend quality time with family and this cute little cottage was perfect! During our stay, we had an issue with the air conditioning and Grant exceeded our expectations with both communication and resolution of the concern. If you are looking for a place to lay your head while enjoying your days out on the water, this place is great! Not to mention, we were able to rent a boat from Grant that was waiting for us at the cottage. Convenience was a reoccurring theme the entire week!

We really enjoyed our stay on the Chain despite the rainy weather the first few days. Grant was very responsive to any of our questions. The cottage is well maintained and we appreciated that there was a washer/dryer available. We look forward to returning again next summer!
