Beautiful little lake, we had so much fun fishing! This was a working vacation and we really appreciated the strong wi-fi connection. The cabin also had a great kitchen to prepare meals in during our stay. We would definitely recommend staying at this cabin.

Change of Pace, just what I needed.

The best vacation rental I have stayed at to date. It was very clean, quiet, and everything you need was at the cabin. Listening to the water/waves and wind blowing through the large pine trees was amazing.

Perfect stay!

We loved our stay here! House was very clean and had a lot of great amenities. Kitchen stocked with all appliances/ kitchen tools you would need. We did a lot of fishing right off the pier. We caught bluegill, bass and northern. We enjoyed lots of campfires at night around the nice fire pit! We would love to stay here again.

Very nice inside and out! Perfect!!

Amenities well thought out. Clean and up-to-date everything. Love the nice leather couch and chairs. Practical. Nice rustic look inside. So comfortable I didn't want to leave. Lots of activities for a family with the canoe and boat outside. Our little dog loved everything too.

Beautiful yard and lake view

This place was great for our weekend stay near Rhinelander. The yard and lake view were lovely. The deck was perfect for our family's small cook out and we loved making a bonfire later in the evening. The bedrooms were small, but the family room was spacious with a great view and the kitchen was fully stocked. I didn't realize the home didn't have A/C when booking, but the temp was comfortable despite it.

Had a wonderful and relaxing stay. Everything was seamless, from check in to an option of a late check out. Wonderful quiet location right on the lake. Couldn’t of asked for a more relaxing stay! Do yourself a favor and book this cozy and comfortable cabin.

Enjoyed

The house was clean and had most of the needed amenities. The lake and location were beautiful. Lots of fish were caught and released. The view was spectacular. We heard the loons every evening. The beds were comfortable. The fire place kept us warm on the chilly, rainy days. I definitely recommend this place and would stay again.

Great location, well kept

The location was great and very comfortable and clean. The surrounding scenery was very serene, well worth the price. The only issue was that the gas’s grill had no gas left when we got there and we didn’t get any response from the host after reaching out as per the instructions.

Great vacation home!

Quiet, clean, well-stocked. Nice firepit, plenty of towels and starting essentials (soaps etc.) You can head in different directions from the cabin and find great places to eat. Rhinelander & Minocqua both have great grocery stores to pick up what you need. Friday & Saturday nights, restaurants get extremely busy, so plan accordingly or make reservations if you can. We usually would go somewhere for lunch and stay at the cabin for dinner. I would definitely go back. Great spot!

Little gem in the Northwoods!

This cabin and location was a 10/10. It’s as beautiful as depicted. Stocked kitchen except for glassware and wine glasses, just coffee mugs and plastic cups. There is a new coffee pot in addition to the Keurig. The beds were very comfy and the fireplace warmed us up on the cool mornings (yes in July)! The view of the lake is awesome and the call of the loons was hauntingly beautiful. Watching the eagles dive for fish was entertaining.The canoe was very nice with built in seats. There’s no AC but a lovely breeze and ceiling fans were enough! We rode our bikes on the Bearskin Trail, swam at Sand Lake and took in the backwoods restaurants and pubs! We fished and caught bluegills from the dock. We will definitely rent this cabin again!

Beautiful and refreshing

I loved my stay here in this cabin with natural, lodge style finishes and decor. It was exactly as you see in the pictures online, and really had most everything I needed for a restful retreat. The only thing that marred my experience (which I took one star off for) was that the gas fireplace had an annoying loud rattle as it was cooling off from the heating phase. I didn't call the property managers while I was there, because I was on a solo retreat and didn't want to see people, so I just put up with it. Other than that, the bed was comfortable and looking out at the lake was so restful and beautiful.
