Gone Fish Inn: Remodeled Lakefront Cabin, FREE Wi-Fi & Firewood, No Cleaning Fee

Welcome to our completely remodeled Gone Fish Inn cabin located on the southwest shore of beautiful Lost Lake. This 2 bedroom, 1 bath cabin accommodates up to 6 guests.

You'll love the warm, cozy feel of this cabin as you enter with the beautiful pine paneled ceilings, doors & trim, rustic hickory cabinets and the Northwoods decor throughout.

In the kitchen, you'll not only appreciate the built-in appliances which include a dishwasher and microwave, but you'll also find plenty of dishes, pots & pans, and other items such as a crock pot, Pizzazz, electric frying pan, blender, hand mixer and more!

The cabin has central A/C for those hot, humid days and forced air heating for days that are colder. The cabin is equipped with a backup generator so no need to worry about power outages during your stay. Enjoy the 42" flat screen wall-mounted TV with YouTube TV, Netflix & Prime services, and the FREE Spectrum Ultra Wi-Fi (up to 600 mbps) provided for our guests.

The attached deck is a great place to lounge outside and enjoy the beautiful nature and animals of the Northwoods. There's a charcoal grill and picnic table for outdoor cooking/dining, and you'll have your own fire pit with 4 wooden benches...FREE firewood provided.

Gone Fish Inn has a private dock. The swimming area out front of the cabin is sandy and great for swimming.

An aluminum row boat is provided with this rental property. The boat is licensed so you're able to bring/rent a motor and attach it, if you'd like. Feel welcome to use the 4 kayaks w/paddles and the paddle boat (shared use with our Whitetail Ridge lake home next door). Possible pontoon boat available to rent during your stay. Inquire if available.

Gone Fish is located on both the UTV/ATV trail and the Bo-Boen Snowmobile Trail.
Our winter guests can directly access the lake at our property next door when heading out snowmobiling or ice fishing. The Bo-Boen Snowmobile Trail crosses over Lost Lake so you're able to connect to it nearby on the lake or right at the end of our road. You can also sled into town or head north to connect to hundreds of miles of groomed trails throughout the Northwoods.

Guests who enjoy fishing will appreciate the remodeled fish cleaning house next door with it's 10' stainless steel sink and running water. It's available to our guests all year round...whether fishing in the summer or ice fishing during the winter season.

Have a large group wanting to rent? In addition to Gone Fish Inn, we own the lake house next door…Whitetail Ridge (newly constructed in 2018).

Pets are considered at Gone Fish Inn for an additional fee of $150 per dog (with a max of 2 dogs) on a case by case basis. Undisclosed pets will be charged a minimum cleaning fee of $200 per dog.

Outstanding location, outstanding cabin (it exceeded our expectations) and outstanding hosts. Due to a dental emergency, we had to cut our visit short. However, we will definitely be back. Having vacationed over thirty years in the Northwoods, this was the nicest get away. Thank you Debbie and Al-looking forward to our return.

Our family of 4 and our dog stayed at Gone Fish Inn at the end of August. We rented the pontoon boat from Lost Lake Properties and had a great time fishing and swimming on Lost Lake. The cabin was very clean and had everything we needed. Al and Debbie were very quick to respond to any questions we had. We will be back to stay at Gone Fish Inn again next year!

Lost Lake Gem
We've been staying on Lost Lake in Vilas county since I was a child. We absolutely love the small town of St. Germain and all the quaint shops, restaurants and lakes! When the cabin we usually stay in was unavailable... We took a chance on Gone Fish Inn--And boy are we glad we did! The newly remodeled cabin was clean and cozy, well appointed and equipped with all the comforts of home. We enjoyed many hours of fishing, had a bonfire every evening, enjoyed chatting with Al and Debbie, and relished the serenity of the Northwoods. We will DEFINITELY be back!!

Spectacular Fall Getaway in the Northwoods
We absolutely fell in love with this cabin and property during our fall stay. The trees were beautiful, easy access to the lake, great view from the cabin, and lots to do in the surrounding towns. We loved that this was dog friendly and our pup had lots of fun! Cabin is perfectly clean, updated, and cozy for spending time together. We can’t wait to come back! Al and Deb were amazing hosts. Great communication, friendly and helpful!

Disappointing trip
Nice updated cabin with pier the family enjoyed for fishing. The kitchen is well stocked and the cabin has several nice touches like a closet full of games and blankets in the ottoman. The TV and WiFi worked well for evening and rainy day. The last 2 days of our trip were very disappointing as the owner's family's nearby property was running chainsaws from from sunup to sundown. They ended up taking down the powerlines and the cabin ran on generator for a while. It was still irritating to go on vacation and get away from it all to have the nonstop racket. There are other odd inconveniences with this rental: you have to bring you own bath towels, you can't simply run the dishwasher as you leave. We did not have a very positive post checkout experience with the owner.
