About this property

PERFECT & AFFORDABLE FAMILY REUNION PARADISE!

Still trying to find the perfect location for your summer get-away? Our 5-bedroom, 3 bath lake home is just the spot for a family reunion, big group of friends or for folks who just like to lounge in a lot of space. It’s on a secluded, private, lakeside lot 2 hours from the Twin Cities.

Like to fish? Little Butternut Lake is a beautiful 185-acre lake in Luck, Wisconsin with good fishing for pan-fish, Large-mouth Bass, Northern Pike and Walleye. We have a private dock, 3 kayaks and a canoe for you to use. You could even stage your own family fishing tournament! Cook them up in our large, well equipped kitchen.

Other Things to Do: If fishing isn’t your thing, how about hiking, biking or enjoying the gorgeous view from the deck above the boat house? St Croix Falls and Taylors Falls are only a few miles away if you want to do a little local exploring. We also provide yard games for friendly competition.


When it’s time to go inside: Your perfect vacation home has a large open living room, generous size dining table, fully equipped kitchen with enough space for more than 1 chef, comfortable beds for 12 people and 3 bathrooms. You don’t have to take home dirty clothes – use our washer/dryer before you leave.

We’re waiting for you and your gang! Don’t delay, it’s a great place (check out the reviews) and summer is coming fast.

*NEW well and septic being installed November 22, 2024. Water pressure will no longer be an issue.

nice, active weekend

The grandchildren, ages 14-20, and their parents loved the arcade games. We made use of the area, went to Siren, go-carted and played miniature golf, in St. Croix Falls. Weather was perfect!

Everything expected except no showers

Two things to take note of about this place as of Sept 8th, 2024: 1 - water pressure is horrendous and couldn't take showers. If the dishwasher was going or someone took a shower, you had to wait for an hour or so to take another. So, we just didn't. 2 - make sure to check the propane tank for the grill. it was empty when i go there, spend about $30 at the gas station nearby to fill it, and used it twice. So, you are welcome to whomever is going to be using the propane that I filled up for you. =) Otherwise, the place was clean, plenty of space, and a gorgeous sunset and sunrise in the morning. Thank you!

Our annual 3 generation cabin getaway

We loved the size of this property! There was plenty of room for all of us. Lots of privacy, we couldn't see any neighbors. The fishing was so-so. The water wasn't great for swimming, but fine for floating or hanging out on the lily pad. Lots of yard for playing, lots of tree frogs and little toads were caught and released! Nice deck space for our family talent show!

Mini reunion with high school friends

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this lovely property. It was just as described in the listing and the pictures were accurate. The cabin is beautiful and comfortable. The kitchen is well-stocked and the beds are comfortable. The property is located on a quiet road so it's very peaceful and relaxing. There are no close neighbors and the views are beautiful from both the cabin and the deck. The deck was a great place to relax and to enjoy the beautiful sunsets. Our group hopes to return for our next mini reunion!

Beautiful location, very private

The house is exactly as pictured/described in the listing- plenty of room for the 11 of us and a beautiful location. Canoes (and life jackets) were available for our stay, and we had a great time getting out on the water and fishing from the dock. The lake is not great for swimming (too much vegetation), but there's a really lovely public beach/floating dock about 15 min up the road at Balsam Lake that the kids loved. Kitchen was well equipped with the exception of silverware-- we had exactly enough forks/spoons for our crew, but would have been a few short if we had enough people for every bed to be filled. Gas stove/oven is plenty big enough to cook for a large group. Finally, bug spray is a MUST. Not surprising given the location, but the mosquitos were hungry and very plentiful.

Excellent place and location.

We had a ton of fun during our stay. Communication was quick and easy with the owner. Highly recommend the place. The only drawbacks we could come up with was dishwasher wasn't mounted to the countertop so it would tilt down once opened. And lastly the propane tank for the grill ran out and as clearly stated in the check in book, it is the renters responsibility to fill propane. Understandable but unknown until check in. Still glad to have a gas grill provided. We would stay there again!

July Family Vacation

Overall, we had a wonderful stay at the cabin. The accommodations fit our family perfectly. 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms were a plus. A few items that could use some improvement would be more paddles for the kayaks so more than one person can go out on the lake. The living room furniture was very worn out. Many lightbulbs missing throughout the rooms and the kitchen sink hot water was scalding. Golf course was a plus.

Family vacation

We had a great annual family vacation at the cabin. Plenty of room for all of us. Well stocked with dishes and pots and pans. Fishing and weather was awesome. We brought a boat and some kayaks but it was nice to have additional ones provided and a canoe. Nice area to play games inside and outside. Nice grocery store within minutes as well as bait shops. Danielle was always quick to respond to any questions I had. We look forward to going back sometime

Family Christmas gathering

The property was exactly as the listing showed. Plenty of rooms & beds for everyone to have their own space. The Christmas tree was beautiful! Kitchen was well stocked with everything needed. On site laundry was a plus! Can’t wait to visit in the summer to be able to see the amazing view from the deck!

Great Home on a Beautiful Lake

We really enjoyed our stay at this property. The large table was perfect for board games and eating meals together. Beds were comfortable and the patio overlooking the lake was gorgeous! The only thing to note was that the water pressure fluctuated throughout the day and was very low at times (even without any faucets running). Outside of that, everything was great. We will likely be coming back at some point in the future!

Great weekend getaway with friends

There were a total of 10 of us (4 adults and 6 children ranging from 4yo to 11yo). There was plenty of space for everyone and we even had several empty beds. The house had just about everything we needed to enjoy our time inside and outside. The only thing we found to be lacking was skewers for s'mores, but we made do with sticks we found. There was a cabinet of board games and Giant Jenga for inside fun. And there were 3 kayaks, 2 canoes, plenty of lifejackets, floating foam pad, a volleyball net/ball, and badminton racquets and birdie for outside fun. The kitchen was well stocked with supplies, and the grocery store and meat store are less than a five minute drive away. Overall, a great property (the only thing we wished it had was a sandy beach, but that doesn't seem feasible given the location of the house). Danielle was also very good about communicating when we had questions.

fun summer break

we had a very nice time. good weather, close to other lakes for using the boat and also fishing on this lake... Fortunately we brought a canopy tent and put it on the deck to avoid the acorns. The mattress in the main floor bedroom (smaller one) is very noisy every time you move(not much sleep) a railing from the patio to the steps would be helpful for older people Thanks for a great stay.

Great cabin for a group

We stayed at this cabin with a mixed age group of 10, from a 1 year old to a 42 year old. The cabin was set up perfectly for everyone to have their own space while having large enough common areas for everyone to gather. The kitchen is well stocked, as is the game cabinet. The two hammocks were very popular with kids, as were the three kayaks. The only downside was that the lake wasn’t swimmable for us. The clear part is several hundred feet out and without having a boat, we had no way to get out there.

Very nice lake home with great bedroom space and gathering places!

Our family of nine (three 6 and under, and six adults really enjoyed the space, and our vacation together. Fun family places nearby, and the lake home was very clean and nice. Our only complaint (not the owner's fault), was that the lake level was so low, and the lake frontage not ideal, we really could not use our 18' speedboat at the dock, so we took it to Balsam lake - very nearby and nice. I imagine that in a normal year it would have worked fine.
