The cabin was nice with a great private yard and dock. The lake was quiet and we only saw three boats out at the same time as us, even on the weekend. It is not handicap friendly with the hill to the lake being steep and all bedrooms upstairs, but if mobility isn't an issue, it's a nice place to stay.
My family and I had a good time at the place. Nothing was wrong with the place, but nothing stood out as great either. Fishing was good and the view was pretty.
Great property for a family get away. Plenty of activities available so everyone had something enjoyable to do. It was a quiet area and lake, so it was also easy to relax.

Thanks for staying with us! Hope all of you come back soon.
This was an awesome spot for our family vacation! The house was clean and supplied with the basics but the best part was the outdoor space. The water toys provided hours of entertainment and the bonfire space was perfect for relaxing in the evening.
Our state was amazing, and so much.Fun and so many memories made, the lake toys that were supplied at no cost were tons of fun, this cabin was well stocked with all items. You may need to prepare meals. And The entertainment that was offered worked wonderful, including everything from Xbox, 360 upstairs.And many different viewing options for the t v downstairs,there was plenty of room ,and very happy with our host,super helpful, i hope to stay again and make more family memories
We would highly recommend this property!! Everything was like we pictured!! No surprises!! Everything was clean and so many amenities!! It’s the perfect place for a family vacation!!
This is a great spot, very secluded on a heavily wooded lot. The best part were all the awesome water toys - a lili pad, paddle boat, paddle board and kayaks. Kept the kids super busy and we all had a lot of fun. Highly recommend and would definitely visit again!
Accurate listing. Well stocked home. Towels provided. 2 crock pots. Clean. Extra blankets. Several fans in each bedroom and ac unit kept the house very comfortable in the summer. Long way to the water. Red Raven coffee was a great find in Crosby and Victual ice cream was delicious- all lactose free. Spent time mtn biking in Cuyuna
Our family had a good time. The place is clean and it is a very quiet setting. Having more wood available for campfires would be nice so we don’t have to haul any from home.
