Awesome Log Cabin

This is a very nice, large, spacious and clean log cabin on a great lake. There was plenty of room for our family. There were lots of things to do in the cabin on rainy days. The lake is very clear and quiet. Perfect for fishing and water sports. Jake (owner) was very attentive to all of our questions/requests. Our family loved our special family time at this great property!

Christmas Memories

This home was beautiful, spacious and inviting. A few minor issues with the 18mo finding random blueberries on the floor. (We didn't bring blueberries) Three of my four boys made the trip with your kids. The other one was at the hospital delivering his first baby. My 7th grandchild. Everyone had a great time, opening presents, playing games, eating wonderful food and playing downstairs in the basement with all the fun activities and games that were there. The owner was easily reached and accommodating. Take pictures when you arrive of any damage you see, we forgot and are being charged for a small hole in a wall we didn't cause. No worries, I'll get it paid, not worth the fight. Would stay here again. Would stay here again.

Large cabin for groups

Overall, our group of friends enjoyed our stay. It's a neat cabin with traditional big log construction, a nice porch and plenty of beds to accommodate 10-12 comfortably. The kitchen was well stocked. It is nestled in the trees which is cozy but the view of and access to the lake is somewhat limiting. The host was easy to contact and very responsive.

This Place Has It All and More

This property is settled in a quiet, wooded neighborhood with the lake just beyond the trees. The house is beautiful with the wooded, cabin feel. Each bedroom is roomy, the beds were comfortable, and two of the five bedrooms had a private bathroom. The kitchen is well stocked with what you need to fix whatever you bring. The dining table fit our family. The entertainment available between board games, bar games, and movies was fun! We enjoyed sitting around the campfire, bean bags on the lower patio, sitting on the upper deck, and inside the screened in porch. This place has it all and more! We will certainly be returning to this house. The owner was quick to respond to my few inquiries prior to arriving.

We enjoyed our stay

The property was clean and comfortable. Lots to do in the downstairs play area with pool table, games, darts. We rented the pontoon and it was large and easy to drive. The path to the lake is very steep. A few of us had a hard time getting down to the lake. But the property was very nice with a firepit and nice area around the fire. There could be some updates done to the property but all-in-all we had a good vacation.

Family vacation

We loved the cabin and the lake. The cabin was great for our family of 15. The path to the lake posed no problem for children and adults but might prove a challenge for the elderly.
