Surprisingly plenty of room despite 480 total sq feet. The location is fantastic, and the property owner was readily available to speak with us to answer questions. We would definitely stay here again!

Comfortable cabin.

This was a perfect vacation spot. The cabin was cozy and comfortable. We used the deck and the fire pit. The location was great. The sunrises were beautiful over the lake.

This was the perfect cute and cozy little cabin for our stay. It was myself, my husband and 2 kids (ages 6 and 5). The cabin sits right at the waters edge so easy to view the swimming area and could see the swing set from the deck as well. I would recommend water shoes for the swimming area though as it's rocky at the bottom but very clear water.

Our fall stay was lovely! It's small but had everything we needed for our girl getaway! Getting up to drink coffee and gaze at the lake was a great way to start the day! Really appreciate that there was Netflix was there without trying to sign into my own account!

Cozy Cabin

Stayed at this property with my wife and 2 young kids (2yr and 5yr olds). It is a very small cabin but very functional and worked well for our family. Swimming area in front of cabin was great, 2-3' of water for over 100yds out into the lake. Location was close to a lot of local attractions for the kids and really enjoyed the food at Ernies on Gull

The house was super cute and very clean! The deck was my absolute favorite part! It's about 10 feet from a gorgeous lake that was great for swimming it was nice and clean and sandy bottom. The cabin is small but with the deck my family of 5 had enough room to not drive each other crazy. The kitchen is small but very cute and clean good for one person at a time and had everything I needed. Check in was super easy and when I messaged the hosts before they were great and answered my questions. This was also very close to shopping and restaurants. Highly recommend this place!!

Dreamy family vacation

We absolutely adored this property! The property and cabin were clean and stocked as promised. Location was perfect, literally feet from the water. Dock was large and sufficient to dock boat and support lots of beach play. The other cabin owners nearby were friendly and respectful. Couldn't have asked for better! We even said upon arrival that if we were to buy a cabin, this place would be exactly what we'd want, and we'd probably end up living in it year round!

Beautiful little cabin...

We loved this beautiful little cabin! Great location, right on the edge of the lake. Had everything we needed... owners were great! My granddaughter went for a "swim" in the lake... it's very shallow, but she's only 6. Perfect for her! Loved watching all the birds (loons and mergansers, especially), and the storms blowing in! Highly recommend...

Prompt Responses from Owner

Communication with the owner was excellent! I had a couple of questions before booking and the response was immediate and thorough, putting my mind at ease for the trip. One minor issue while staying at the property was attended to and fixed immediately. Very pleased with the property and attentiveness of the owners!

The Raceway will demolish the peace and quiet.

The cabin is really tiny, a mere 480 square. It is on the listing but I missed that and was a bit taken aback when I first entered. The sun rises over the lakeaking for an amazing sun rise. The lake is beautiful and very peaceful and serene with the call of the loons close by...but what I didn't expect was the noise from the raceway. It was awful and started early. Fortunately we had our boat and were able to get far enough away to find the quiet again. That will be the only reason I would not rent here again

We enjoyed our stay at this cabin, but had a few hiccups. We had to do some house maintenance right away that got missed by housekeeping. There was old laundry in the washer & dryer that we had to rewash for our use and to even find towels, and had to change a light in the kitchen that was out. The shower and bathroom faucet sprays were quite spectacular too. We never knew where the spray was going to hit us. The inside of the cabin was really well taken care of and clean. But the outside deck and chairs needed some TLC. Beyond those small pieces of our weekend, the cabin was great for our family. We hung out there in a rain day with the kids and enjoyed the atmosphere, and the other days we were in and out were just as enjoyable. The lake itself was really low where we couldn’t launch our boat, but the calm, peacefulness of the lake was still great.
