  • What a relaxing vacation. The house was perfect. The boat was great. I thought coming the end of August the weather would be nice and hot, I was wrong. By the end of week the high temp was 59 during the day and 40's at night. If you stay at this place you must eat at Fritz's, great fish fry. So many places to go see. I would come back in a minute. Thanks Mary and Randy for the gift when we arrived. I hope to return in a few years.

  • Mary...I can't believe it took me this long to review. Water's Edge was the perfect place for our group of friends to escape for a ski weekend. The view, the house, the hot-tub...everything was perfect. We're already planning our trip for next year. Thanks so much for having us!

  • We had a great weekend getaway at this cabin. The cabin was immaculate and very well kept. We went in the winter and had a great time in the hot tub. The owners are very helpful and accomodating. The cabin had everything you could possibly ever think of that you would need while you were there. We will definitely plan a trip back. Thanks for a great get away!

  • This cabin is right on the lake and very easy to find right off the highway. It has every amenity you could want - just bring some clothes! The towels, sheets, etc. are in great condition. The cabin is tidy and clean inside. The hot tub is awesome and relaxing. The owner is very responsive, informative, kind, and generous. We will definitely make a trip back to this cabin!

  • This was our second stay at Water's Edge and it was just as much fun as the first one! We enjoyed relaxing, playing board games, watching the large screen TV and soaking in the hot tub! This time we tried ice-fishing on Lake WI right off the backyard and even though we didn't catch anything we had fun trying. The house is well equipped with everything you need to be comfortable and more. We're already planning our late spring trip for more fishing!
