This property is situated on beautiful Lower McKenzie Lake in Washburn County Wisconsin. The property and lake are in the middle of Washburn County Forest. We are also surrounded by dozens of other lakes, and the beautiful Namekagon River ( Howell Landing ) is only 4 miles from our property. Canoeing, kayaking, inner tubing and swimming are favorite pastimes on the river.
Fishing is excellent on Lower Mckenzie Lake and surrounding lakes in winter and summer.
We are on a sandy beach, excellent swimming, with a private dock for your boat. The dock and swimming area separated by over 100 ft of shoreline.
The public boat landing is only a 1/4 mile from our home by water and only 2 miles by land. If you want to bring your own boat / pontoon we have a 60 ft dock with plenty of room to keep your boat at our cabin. There are several boat rentals nearby where you can rent pontoons, fishing boats, kayaks, and canoes. Informations on this is in the amenities section on this website.
We are surrounded by thousands of acres of Washburn County Forest with 100's of miles of trails for hiking, cycling, snowmobiling and for ATV's.

We've had exceptional reviews since we started renting in June of 2016.
Our 2017 through 2020 seasons have been exceptional. We already have reservations for this winter and next summer. We had several repeat customers this year so demand is very strong.

If you are looking for peace and quiet close to nature, you will definitely find it here. We have a sauna in the main house. There's a fire pit near the lake where our guests hang out anytime of the day or night The fire pit is a great place for guests to barbecue, fish, and swim. The shoreline here is sandy and the water level is safe for small children.
The fishing is excellent right from our shoreline, but you can get out on the lake on and explore other fishing hot spots on our lake.

Ice fishing is also very popular, and guests love the easy access to the lake directly from our property. Sunrises and sunsets are amazing on most days. Nights are cool and quiet. The air is fresh and clean, and there is the sound of Loons and other wild life during evening and early morning hours.
Our property is completely private. There are no cabins visible on either side of us, and there is never any automobile traffic for miles around us because we are on a dead end road. Very safe for families with young children. Let us know if you have any other questions or needs and we will do our best to answer them.
We look forward to having you as guests at our lake home, and giving you the opportunity to experience a unique and memorable adventure with family and friends.

Regards,
Kristy and Patrick

Disappointed

Although the interior was fine the exterior was unsafe for children due to so much junk lying around. We were told he’d supply the wood but that didn’t happen. Just as well, unless we wanted to clean the fire pit out, it was unuseable. The guest house had no power to any of the kitchen appliances which was a real inconvenience to the family that was staying there. Owner said he was going through a difficult time. For that I am sorry but, we paid a lot of money and expected a lot more.

Not accurately listed

The photos were not accurate and did not fairly represent the condition of the property. The yard had junk scattered everywhere. Chairs were covered in bird poop, ripped or had puddles of dirt. Grass was so long we couldn't enjoy the yard. Sandy beach was full of weeds. The inside of the main cabin did not appear to be prepped for guests and had personal family photos displayed. Two beds had sand in them, dishes, pots and cutting boards were dirty with dried food and grease. The end of the dock was sinking and felt unsafe. When we asked the owner about the wheelbarrow of wood a day, we were told to gather it from the property ourselves. Yet one wheelbarrow had junk in it and the other was full of water and had a flast tire. He apologized that he was behind on his chores yet had over a week to prepare for us. He was shocked that we didn't think the place was clean but did refund a small portion of the payment. He did not seem to take much responsibility for the condition of the place. Hopefully he takes our suggestions to heart for the next renters.

NO Bang for Your BUCK!

I would like to start out by saying I look for VRBO’s that are a beautiful,relaxing home away from home like I assume most of you do! I look at pictures look at location and love lakes and fall leaves! This places looked perfect on the website. Looks can be deceiving!! We pulled in to the long winding off the beaten path driveway to a sandy messy property that was full of junk all over the yard the owners 2 vehicles were there and so where the owners and their dog. My 2 other friends couples were taken back looking at the property. One set of friends decided not to stay and the others decided not to use their own Seperate cabin which we were told we paid for above the garage, they were scared of the condition of that cabin. After the outside was viewed we started to wonder about the inside so we went in and there was a phone and coffee filter on the table with notes on it and I told the lady that there was a phone in there she said yeah that is mine you can give it to me. During the 1 hour we stayed at the cabin we saw broken windows and the fix was to tape a picture over it and yes this was the front window in the kitchen by the stove. We opened the fridge to put our waters in there and there was dried leaked blood or something from meat I assume and something brown and sticky in the bottom of the freezer too.So I let them know we were not staying and told them why and they started to call me dishonest, crazy, and that the cabin is spotless and insulted me!

Family get together

We were able to check in early which was a big plus for us. The apartment over the garage had a strong smell that lessened when the garage doors were left opened but intensified when closed. The owners of course closed the doors when they went to their other property. We texted Pat about the smell on Monday morning and told him it was really terrible and wondered if something had died under the stairs in the garage. He said he would check back later with a solution. At 7:30 pm the power went out so I texted again asking where’s the breaker box and of course it was in the locked garage. He did send his wife with the key and she was kind enough to leave it in case it happened again. It did. Tuesday Chris and a cleaning lady came to deep clean the garage. While they were there and the doors were opened the smell did lessen. Tuesday afternoon my husband noticed that the water heater next to the wall by the stairs did NOT have a flue vent. The exhaust from the water heater was getting into the apartment. Pat then asked us to shut off the propane until someone could come and install a hot water heater exhaust pipe. Wednesday Pat said the propane company doesn’t do that type of work, he would come Thursday and do it himself. On Thursday someone did show up but left without doing the job. We let Pat know but did not hear back from him. There were no carbon monoxide detectors in the buildings. Had there been they would have been aware of a very serious problem.

Perfect Slice of Heaven

If you are looking for a little slice of heaven this is it! The view on the lake is priceless and the quiet and solitude is perfect. We had 5 days of spending time with family and the house is right on the ATV trails so a lot of 4-wheeling was had by all. Pat and his wife are wonderful hosts and very accommodating. This was the perfect place for our family weekend together!

Would not recommend this place at all!!!!!!!!!

I would not recommend this place at all. We were lied to and the owner stayed on the property the whole time we were at the place. He was up at 6:00am running a skid loader and his dog was barking. Nobody could sleep in. (We were on vacation clearly he was not) It was uncomfortable as it states maximum privacy. (That never happened as we felt we were being watched the whole time) He started a brush fire next to my brothers truck and his truck smelled like smoke and had soot all over it. His neighbors are rude and came yelling at an elderly couple in our group for driving to fast which they did not. (We had our side by sides and we respected everyone however it was very dry and dusty and when you have 5 machines driving yes dust will fly). The place above the garage needs an updated toilet seat as it was taped. The power blew out a couple times because they had their camper plugged in to the garage so it would get hot. The other house gives guest no privacy as you need to go through everyone's rooms to use the bathroom's. The grass was not mowed and it was very long. Lots of garbage and junk laying around. We asked for a refund due to the owner staying on site with us and he refused to give us one. He complained him and his wife have to live out of their suit cases so they can do the VROB. (Not our problem). Overall this was not a good place to stay. I would not recommend this place a all.

Family vacation

We were a group of 6 adults and 3 teenagers and rented both the house and cabin above the garage. Pat is a friendly host and was on site to greet the first people to arrive. We rented Pat's pontoon and really enjoyed the beautiful sunset boat rides during our stay. A few things for future renters to be aware of: if renting the cabin above the garage please enquire whether the electric safety hazard in the shower has been fixed. There is a loose light that appears to be hanging by the wire only. The window air-condition units are very loud and cycle on and off in the night making it hard to sleep. The windows can't be opened, so suggest renters use the sliding door for cool air. In the main cabin be aware that there is no dishwasher, and also no central air. There are two wall mounted air conditioners (one upstairs, and one in the kitchen). They worked well, but the main bedroom could be a bit stuffy at times since there is no a/c unit in the main bedroom.

Pure Relaxation

I was looking for a property where we could get away and relax and this place was perfect for that. The hosts, Patrick and Kristy, are super nice people that responded immediately to any questions we had. It's remote and quiet and the lake had very little traffic. Whether we were hanging out in the yard, by the fire, or drifting around on the pontoon the experience was nothing but peaceful. For us, it couldn't have been a better trip.

Great location for family vacation

We are a family of 11, 4 under 5yrs old. The 2 cabins worked fine for us. We did all of our cooking in the main cabin. There are plenty of large pots and pans and dishes. The beach area is small but nice and sandy. It is also in the shade for a lot of the afternoon which was great. The yard is huge and we had plenty of space to set up yard games and the firepits are both fabulous. Just one drawback in the main cabin. The 3rd bedroom is not really private you have to walk through it to get to the bathroom and the other upstairs bedroom. It wasn't a problem for us. There was also lots of room in the other bedrooms to set up pack and plays. We had 3. Pat was a great host. He was easy to communicate with prior to arrival and we even got to meet him on the Sat. we were leaving. Thanks for a great time

Lots of space!

The facilities were in excellent condition and well maintained. The property has plenty of space inside and out. Lots of areas to enjoy. We especially loved all the birds that flocked the the feeders and the kids loved the chipmunks that came to visit. We rented the pontoon which was perfect for fishing and swimming. Pat was quick to respond to all questions. The area for swimming (in the creek) would work for littles (kids under 4) as it is small and very shallow. We had bigger kids so, we took the pontoon out and found the deep non-weedy spot to swim. The location is perfect for a canoe/kayak trip down the namekagon river. Spooner was a 25 minute drive for shopping and cute historic downtown.

great place for extended family getaway

We used both cabins for our extended family of 6 adults and 6 children aged 1-6. There was plenty of space for everyone, even when we had to stay inside a bit due to rain. The kids enjoyed swimming in the lake and going out in the pontoon and the canoe. There is plenty of space for kids to run around. Lots of birds and other wildlife. The house is very clean. Communication with Pat is excellent, and he is very flexible with plans.

College Graduate. Yale University New Haven CT. Carlson School of Management University of Minnesota
Retired business executive. My wife and I are in are in our late 60's. We like to travel. We are laid back and casual . We don't drink or smoke, but welcome people that like to have a good time and drink sociably. We stay at the site while guests are renting, but give your privacy top periority, and will be accessible only if you need something.

Why they chose this property

This is the perfect place for small families or couples who need extra rooms for lodging but still have the intimacy and privacy in one location. We will only rent out the property to one group at a time to insure privacy. This is a unique property because it is situated on 4 acres, and is surrounded by 2000 acres of woods, lakes and rivers. It's an amazing place where you can relax. We have 280 ft of shore line both on the lake and the river that flows out of the lake. We are looking for outdoor enthusiasts or folks who just want to relax and get away from it all.

What makes this property unique

Adjacent to Snowmobile and ATV Trails. Direct access from our property to authorized trails. Excellent fishing all seasons. Cross country trails nearby. Canoe landing on the Namakogan River only 4 miles from cabin. Several restaurants and night life within 8 miles. St. Croix Casino 19 miles from cabin. The casino has great food, entertainment, and of course gambling. Hayward Wi is 40 miles east from the cabin.
