Half the fun of a Long Lake trip is waking up on the water. With its size, scenery and four-season recreation, the lake supports a great mix of lodging — whether you want a simple fishing cabin, a full resort experience, or a roomy rental for the whole family. Here is how to think about where to stay.
Types of lodging on Long Lake
Lakefront cabins
The classic Northwoods stay — your own dock, fire pit and water access steps from the door.
Resorts
Traditional family resorts with multiple cabins, amenities and that up-north community feel.
Vacation rentals
Private homes and rentals for larger groups, often with full kitchens and lake frontage.
The Sarona and Long Lake area is home to a range of resorts, cabins and vacation rentals, many of which include a private dock and gear like row boats and kayaks — ideal for fishing and family trips alike. Availability is tightest in peak summer and during prime fishing weekends, so book early.
Stay at The Landing
Want to keep it simple? The Landing on Long Lake offers lakefront cabins right on the water, so you can fish, boat and swim all day and walk to dinner at night. They are open all season — great for summer family trips, fall fishing and winter ice-fishing or snowmobiling weekends — and they put you steps from the restaurant and bar.
Call (715) 354-2045 to ask about cabin availability and rates, or see the cabins page for details.
What to look for
- Dock and water access — essential if you are bringing a boat or want to fish from shore.
- All-season readiness — confirm heating and winter access if you are visiting for ice season.
- Proximity to a launch — handy if you are trailering a boat; see our boat launches guide.
- Group size and kitchen — match bedrooms and cooking space to your party.
