Snowy Paws is a modern 3‑bedroom, 2‑bath retreat on five wooded acres in Phelps, Wisconsin, just steps from Lac Vieux Desert. Designed for up to ten guests, the single‑level home blends open‑concept living with heated concrete floors, central air, and huge windows that look out over the surrounding forest. With five beds and spacious gathering areas, it’s the ideal base for your Northwoods vacation.
The great room features comfortable seating around a smart TV and wood‑look electric fireplace, while the fully equipped kitchen offers stainless‑steel appliances, a breakfast bar and dining table for family meals. Sliding doors lead to a large patio where you can grill, watch for wildlife or enjoy the quiet of the woods. After a day on the trails or lake, retreat to the three cozy bedrooms to recharge for another adventure.
Guests appreciate conveniences like the heated two‑car garage, in‑floor heating and whole‑house generator for worry‑free stays. A private entrance and single‑level layout make Snowy Paws easy for all ages, and the home is pet‑friendly so your furry companions can join the fun. Located about 150 feet from lake access and close to Phelps and Land O’ Lakes, this is a comfortable getaway in every season.
One of Snowy Paws’ standout features is its setting on a secluded five‑acre parcel just a couple hundred yards from the sparkling waters of Lac Vieux Desert. You’ll feel like you’re tucked away in the woods, yet it’s a short stroll down a quiet lane to launch a kayak or cast a line. The home provides direct access to hundreds of miles of ATV/UTV and snowmobile trails, making it a dream basecamp for outdoor enthusiasts.
Inside, thoughtful amenities elevate the experience: heated acid‑etched concrete floors keep your toes warm in winter, central air ensures comfort in summer, and a whole‑house generator means you’ll never lose power. A heated garage stores your gear, and the open design invites everyone to gather together. With pet‑friendly policies and space for up to ten guests, Snowy Paws offers a rare mix of modern comforts and rustic Northwoods charm.
Start your days with coffee on the patio before wandering down to Lac Vieux Desert for boating, swimming and fishing. The lake is known for musky, walleye and panfish, and there’s plenty of shoreline for picnicking and wildlife watching. Phelps’ public boat launches make it easy to get on the water, and in winter the frozen lake becomes a playground for ice fishing and snowshoeing.
Hop on your ATV or UTV and explore the extensive Vilas County trail network right from your door, or snowmobile through groomed routes when the snow flies. Hiking, biking and cross‑country ski trails weave through the surrounding Chequamegon–Nicolet National Forest and the Northern Highland–American Legion State Forest, offering endless options for outdoor adventure.
Nearby, you can tee off at local golf courses, visit the Phelps Historical Museum, or browse the shops and eateries in Land O’ Lakes and Eagle River. The area is dotted with supper clubs and pubs where you can sample Friday‑night fish fry or craft beers after a day outside. Seasonal events like community festivals, farmers markets and holiday celebrations provide plenty of reasons to venture into town during your stay.
Day trips might include a drive to Bond Falls in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, the family‑friendly Northwoods Children’s Museum, or a scenic cruise on the Chain of Lakes in Eagle River.

Our family of eight enjoyed the seclusion and modern comforts of Snowy Paws. We loved watching wildlife from the patio, warming our toes on the heated floors and exploring nearby ATV and snowmobile trails. The house was spotless and well stocked with everything we needed for a long weekend.
Another guest mentioned how easy it was to access Lac Vieux Desert. Their kids spent hours fishing and paddling while the adults relaxed around the fire after dinner. Everyone appreciated the heated garage and generator for peace of mind. We can’t wait to return and would recommend booking direct through Water’s Edge Vacation Rentals.
