Annual Fishing Trip

I’ve always wanted to stay at McNeils and it did not disappoint. From the massive yard, to the cozy cabin. It lies right on some of the best water on the brule, so fishing is made easy. Truly a memorable trip and unforgettable cabin. It was clean and we had all the amenities we could need. Definitely would stay again!

Slice of Heaven

This quaint house nestled on the banks of the beautiful Brule River made for a great late fall getaway. If you want to disappear in the woods of Northern Wisconsin for a spell, this is a fantastic property to do so.

Great Place, Love Proximity to the River

Friends and I were looking for a place to stay and fish on the Brule River and found this fantastic spot. Even though there was alot of snow to make it difficult to fish, having a place close to the river like this place made the trip enjoyable. Plan on staying here in the future if available.
