What a cozy cabin, well-equipped, and a gorgeous view over the lake. Deer passing through the yard, and a pair of eagles perching right outside the sunroom. Beds were very comfortable.

I wish we had booked a longer stay! Enjoyed coffee on the deck overlooking the lake in the morning, watched eagles from the living room window and saw beautiful sunsets from the dock.

Melanie, thank you for the lovely review! We hope to have you back again soon!!
We had a wonderful time at the cabin on Balsam Lake! The downstairs area was perfect for the kids and we had plenty to do between fishing and the kayaks. We braved the seaweed in the middle of the lake for a short swim but were happiest on top of the water.

Thank you for the great review, Naomi! Yes, the lake is a freshwater spring-fed lake which the seaweed just loves. We have divers remove it from around our dock, but the harvester cares for the middle of the lake.
Glad to hear you enjoyed your trip and hope to have you back again!

The checking was easy. The cabin was exactly as described. Kitchen was perfect for our little family retreat before they enter their final year of college. Very peaceful and serene. We were able to relax and connect!
