- Bedroom 1: Queen bed
- Bedroom 2: Queen bed

With western exposure, Timberlane Resort is also an incredible place to enjoy Northwoods sunsets and evening stargazing.

Four Seasons of Northwoods Fun
Meta Lake is ideal for fishing, boating, swimming, watersports, and simply relaxing along the shoreline. Wildlife sightings are part of the experience—you may spot bald eagles, deer, loons, otters, foxes, geese, and more.

Cabin was very cozy with everything we needed for our snowmobile trip to eagle river. Unfortunately we picked the coldest weekend of the season but we made the best of it. Host was very helpful and had a place to park our 3 vehicles and a snowmobile trailer. Definitely would do it again, just on a warmer weekend. Thanks again.

Perfect Location for a Long Weekend in Eagle River

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the Perch Cabin at Timberlane Resort. Everything was immaculately clean with every amenity attended to, including a full kitchen, personal fire pit w/ wood available, and multiple watercraft for use. Meta Lake is clear to the bottom and the location has a lovely little sandy beach. Stellar, proactive communication from the property manager was wonderful. We are already hoping to plan a return stay next year!

This was our first time renting the Perch cottage. The cottage is beautiful and very, very clean. I have nothing negative to say about the cottage. However, this cottage is the only one with this resort that is not on the lake. It does have a very nice screened in porch and a private Fire pit area. I would definitely recommend the cottage. Also for people who like to bike, the road outside the cottage is perfect. You can go for miles.

Cute, cozy, something for everyone!

The cabin is gorgeous and cozy. It had all we could possibly need and more. We loved the fire pit and the flowers were such a nice touch. I have to admit I was a little disappointed when we first arrived because I thought the house was right on the water. It sits behind a row of cabins on the beach. We got very lucky because the cabins on the beach were all empty so we basically had the beach to ourselves. If there were families in the other cabins I expect the shared beach would be a bit crowded. There is so much to do water toys, outdoor games, fire pits, bbqs. If your family doesn’t play well in the sandbox with others it may not be for you. All in all we enjoyed our time but would probably rent one of the cabins on the water next time. I also want to say that Miranda the property manager is so amazing to work with. She was very welcoming and it was nice to have a contact If we needed anything.

Great Family Stay

Clean, cheerful cabin with other family's on the shared property. Everything a family needs to have a great time. This location has everything you need. Kayaks, paddleboards lounge chairs on the beach. They even had wood all cut for a fire. This little place wasn't as little as it might look with a added surprise. It has a beautiful screen area to eat with a private fire pit partially fenced in the yard behind the house, which made it feel like a secret place just for us. Would like to stay again.

Perfect for short or long term stay, great location for snowmobiling!

The house was just as listed. Like new, clean and modern appliances. My wife, oldest daughter, brother and sister in law and myself fit perfectly in this cabin. There was ample parking for our sleds and my truck. My uncle was even able to park his truck and unload his sled for the day. A short jog down the road and your on the trails! Close enough to Eagle River for the essentials or breakfast that we didn’t even need to cook! Though, the kitchen was very well equipped. The host was even nice enough to accommodate a extra hour for check out, as we had a longer drive home. The beds were very comfortable, the shower never went cold, cabin heated up quickly and was not drafty at all when it was -12 outside. We didn’t get to see the lake, because it wasn’t marked for snowmobiles. So we may need to return to this property or one of the neighboring cabins in the summer! **highly recommend**

Best stay ever!

We would give this place 10 stars if we could! The whole place was recently renovated and it is absolute perfection! The sunsets from the back porch were breathtaking and the cherry on top of many perfect days. It was well equipped with everything we could possibly need for our stay. The fishing was great. My husband and son had a wonderful time! We loved having access to kayaks, stand up boards, a John boat with motor and the beautiful beach like shoreline. We spent our time swimming, fishing, playing games on the porch and toasting marshmallows in the fire pits (and maybe a few naps in the hammocks). We couldn’t have asked for a better trip. Thank you for making our stay so easy, beautiful and fun!!
