Once you arrive here you can ATV all over northern Wisconsin. The Chequamegon National Forest alone contains over 140 miles of trails.

ATV and Snowmobile rentals are also available in the area if you don't have your own equipment. Several companies will deliver equipment right to our cabin.

Boats- LCO is an amazing boating lake. It's clear clean water is excellent for swimming, skiing and fishing. The lake has a secret sand bar where boaters like to anchor and swim but the majority of the lake is generally fairly deep and has a sandy bottom. We rent out two 2021 Benningtons, one with a 90/125 HP motors ea. We have 4 cabins on this lake so it's first come first server for the pontoon and it often books up early. Your Majestic Retreat rental also includes a private dock to dock your boat, a rowboat and a canoe for you to use during your stay. Additional water toys and boats are available to rent on the lake. Several well maintained public boat launches are also located near the cabin. Power is available at the lake shore for charging boat batteries etc. you will need to bring an extension cord.

Fire pit and gas grill- There is a nice fire pit by the lake for you to use during your stay. We also supply a Gas Grill on the upper deck for our guests to use free of charge. Lawn chairs are down by the lake and on the deck for your use while staying with us.

Majestic Retreat is located approximately 9 miles south of the city of Hayward. It's about 140 miles northeast of the Twin Cities Metro area. The Hatchery Creek Trailhead (Birkie Trail and CAMBA mountain Bike Trail access is also approximately 8 miles from the cabin. There is a casino nearby as well as several wineries.

Parking- you can park up to 6 cars as well as several boat trailers at Majestic. Sorry, we do not allow camping in RVs on the property or tents.

A Note About Dogs:
We LOVE dogs and we want our guests to enjoy their vacation with the whole family, including the furry members :-) Up to two dogs are allowed at this cabin with prior approval- an additional fee applies. That being said, please be mindful of whether our home is appropriate for your dog(s).

We may not be the vacation rental for you if your dog(s):
*Consider barking to be a favorite pastime;
*Chew things other than bones;
*Like to visit the neighbors unsupervised (we do not have a fenced-in yard), and/or;
*Use the house as a bathroom.

We ask that your dogs be supervised when at the cabin and crated when you are not (One large crate is available at the cabin). Also, it should not need to be said (but unfortunately needs to be, as we have had guests leave enough surprises for us), but PLEASE pick up after your dogs!! It is NOT the responsibility of our cleaners.

We would love to share our little piece of paradise with you and your family. Professionally managed by Manage Cabins LLC.

LCO December Stay

The cabin is located in a beautiful location on an amazing lake. It was peaceful and the ice fishing was good! Driving up to the cabin and the view of it from the lake is gorgeous. The interior and furnishings would benefit from some sprucing up. While it is noted in the listing body soaps, shampoos, bath and beach towels should be brought with, it would be great for some of those to be available and not have to pack. Guests should also considering bringing the following if they think they will need: laundry soap, paper plates and utensils, plastic baggies and Saran Wrap/aluminum foil, storage containers, extra kitchen towels. A small kitchen sponge, one disposable rag and one dish towel to dry are provided.

Cousins Week

We loved the location and the beautiful cabin. Our only complaint was that it is listed for 12 guests. 2 of the guests had to sleep on the pull-out couch. Typically we would have expected 12 regular beds for 12 guests, not 10 plus a pull-out couch. One place on the listing it showed 2 full beds in one of the rooms and in another place on the listing it showed those 2 beds as twin beds. If there had been 2 full beds we would have enjoyed the stay more. Besides the sleeping conditions, I would have given this a 5 star review.

Gently used property?

Beautiful house and location on an amazing lake. House seemed “used”. Broken leather chair, kitchen sink faucet ready to fall off, screen porch that was hard to see out of because of dirty screens, etc.

If you like rustic A frame wooden cabins and a wonderful lake view, this is your place! The huge windows and view from the master bedroom is spectacular. We saw a bald eagle flying over the lake multiple times and a group of ten loons. Easy drive into town too for a bite to eat and some shopping.

A nice place, a bit too pricey

A beautiful view anytime of day! Great size for our group of 8 adults. Overall, we had a nice stay. However I think just based on the nightly cost, we would probably not book again— General consensus among our group was that the property’s pricing does not match its value. This is one of the most expensive vacation rentals most of us had ever stayed in, but the amenities are just not really up to par. Yes, we were informed ahead of time there were not going to be towels of any kind, but still was such a pain when flying from another state. The house had ladybugs everywhere inside. While harmless, we were constantly trying to keep them out of food, showers etc. It seems like the house is in need of some deep cleaning and attention to furnishings and some upgraded kitchen supplies. There had clearly been a dog there before us. The house has two gas fireplaces that are such a lovely visual focal point but the flames are so tiny when you turn them on that we stopped using them because you really can’t even see (or feel) that they are on. Overall our stay was fine, and if we had paid a lot less I think we’d probably be more ok with the value.

Great Property. Fantastic Location

My wife and I rented this property to relax and invite our son's family and daughter-in-laws parents to celebrate our granddaughter's 6th birthday. This property was central to all. Such a great lakeside "cabin", beautiful location and convenient for supplies. Very comfortable and higher quality accommodations while retaining the feel of a lakeside cabin. Well done!

Beautiful Lake Home with Beach

My family of 10 and myself had a wonderful time at Lake LCO "Lac Courte Oreilles"! We ranged in ages from 17 to 76 and everyone had plenty of room and no one wanted to leave TBH! The home is an eye catcher from the water and very close to everything needed for a wonderful vacation. The lake is crystal clear and full of a variety of fish. We saw a couple black bear and other wild life right in the area. The food in the area was fantastic and the locals are very friendly. Consider this place for sure for an excellent long weekend vacation or more. We took our wake surf boat and loved it. There are some shallow spots on the lake but there are plenty of nice calm areas that are perfect for your water sports. Thanks for having us! The Haughey's. (Hoy's)

First Annual Family Cabin Trip

The property was nice, however it did not live up to our expectations related to: 1. The cleanliness (the downstairs smelled like stale dog and the dust was so thick in places you would write your name and the kitchen floor had cheese and jelly). 2. The "private beach" (as advertised) was not private at all. We understood sharing it with the other two cabins, however one of the families had 3 dogs and had them off leash most of the time they were at the beach. One dog even got in our cabin. 3. The "private beach" was shared by the family staying in the Whispering Pines cabin which was to our right as we faced the lake. There was more than one occasion when they were fully occupying our beach chairs and dock (I do have pictures) keeping us from using it. It was awkward and we did not feel like we should have to have conflict with the neighbors so we didn't. They told us that they were told by the management company that they could use our beach. Very disappointing. You would think that for the price we paid for this cabin, there would be other common amenities like Bathroom towels, kitchen towels and firewood. These seem like basics for a cabin and we didn't even realize this was not included (as well as the beach being shared) until we received the welcome package a couple of days before arrival. Very disappointing. I am giving the score of 3 because the pontoon was very nice, clean and our family was able to enjoy lots of pontoon time (but not beach time).

Overall a great summer stay.

Upon arriving it is a little tough to figure out where the big cabin actually was. The road directions aren’t overly clear so just make sure to keep going down the drive despite it feeling like you are going to someone’s cabin driveway. The cabin was awesome and clean with fun things for the kids to do. My only negative of the place was we had the biggest cabin of the 3 on their property but had the worst dock setup. We brought our pontoon and large fishing boat with us. The owners left their non rented pontoon on the dock we were given so had to park all of our boats in the sand. The end of the dock and chair were not overly safe to use either so we pushed out each day. Windy days from the north and west made it a little challenging for us but all in all it was a nice stay.

Family fun at the lake!

My family and I had a great time at the cabin! Everything was as advertised online. We enjoyed the spacious house for our big group. We found the fully equipped kitchen partially helpful as we cooked almost all meals at home. There were a few items that needed attention- no gas tank for grill, dirty beach, clogged drain in bathroom, but the property manager was extremely attentive and took care of each right away. Thanks for having us!
