We arrived Mothers Day about 5 pm. Had no trouble finding the cabin. We were amazed at how beautiful this property is. It took our breath away the views of the lake the fresh air trees everywhere. The home is beautiful. We brought our own sheets but the house was stocked with sheets n towels and everything you would need. We took the canoe for a family ride and it was great. Caught a couple little fish the second day and tossed em back but was fun to sit on the dock w our daughter and enjoy the sunshine and fish. We enjoyed bbqing but most enjoyed was the awesome kitchen with viking stove and sub zero fridge. We ate in everyday and only had lunch out a couple times. I could've stayed two weeks or even a season at this amazing cabin. Its just what I had in mind but blew my expectations. The family gathered at the kitchen for meals and enjoyes the lake view. It was so nice to lay in the beds or futons w the windows open and enjoy the breeze on your face. We even did a fun puzzle of minnesota and played cribbage. The large flat screen tv was awesome for the little one to watch nick jr so direct tv is a plus. Also wifi is available. Many books to read. Found 3 trails to hike within footsteps of the house. The porch area was such a nice room to relax w family. There was brand new washer dryer front loaders w used, I have them at home so was nice treat. There was nothing bad to say. Be warned the shower is very small if u r short its not fun but just as well more room for cabin space. The cabin was very clean, expect the floors hadn't been cleaned in quite some time and were very dusty. We almost bought a mop but decided it was our vacation some dusty dirty feet wasn't stopping our fun and the rest of the cabin was very clean and we were overall extremely pleased. John the owner called us and made sure we were comfortable and was available for any questions. We were so grateful to have a awesome owner so helpful from the start of our reservation. The home recently had security installed and the comfort and safety we felt was a plus. The weather was in the 90s 80s and just beautiful. We did have a couple nights of rain and thunder storms but enjoyed the cozy cabin even more. It was a perfect vacation. I cannot thank john enough and I'm sure we will return next may for week at least at horseshoe lake. I even got myself a horseshoe lake sweatshirt at godfreys which is a great grocery/hardware store. Thank you horseshoe lake we r in love and this cabin is perfect!
