Secluded North Woods Getaway with 2 Lake Views

There was a lot to do around the area and the cabin was really nice. A lot to do at the cabin at night or during a rainy day.

Jon's property in Birchwood was amazing. The house was beautiful & very clean. Spacious but very cozy. We live in Iowa & we love motorcycling 2 Wisconsin. The scenery is georgeous. The roads are good & the people we meet are warm & welcoming. If you are looking for a home away from home... this is your place. Boating fishing snowmobiling or riding motorcycles... there's no place like Wisconsin.

What a place! Thank you, Jon, for letting us stay here. Our family(2 adults and 2 kids), had such a great time!

We spent everyday on the big lake kayaking, canoeing, and doing cannonballs off the dock. The kids really enjoyed the paddle boats. The water felt great on the warmer days. It wasn't as cold as we were expecting it to be. The water was a bit murky, but we still had fun diving down to find shells. We didn't spend much time on the back lake, as it was a bit of a hike. But it was very peaceful and beautiful! I spent most early mornings fishing off the dock while watching the eagles and loons.

The cabin is great! The rooms were spacious and the beds were excellent! In fact, we are considering buying the same one for our place. We really loved our family time outside on the deck telling stories and making smores. What a way to end a day! The sunsets were amazing and the stars. We forget sometimes just how many there really are. The kids spent most of their indoor time playing air hockey and foosball. It was great entertainment for them, while the parents prepared meals.

We regret not exploring more of the area, but we just enjoyed being on the lake and around the cabin so much. In fact, not once did we hear the words, "I'm bored".

Jon is a great owner, and was quick to respond to any questions that we had. He alerted us to some issues that were present before we arrived.

If you're looking for a peaceful North Woods retreat, you'll find it here! We would come back tomorrow! (except it was already booked!)

A group of us stayed in early June of this year. Like I said the pictures don't do it justice. I believe they upgraded the furniture and added in two new smart tvs. Fun place and we had lots of room for the group of 6. We didn't have much luck with fishing on the big lake but the private lake was great for crappie( worth the hike). The outdoor deck is bigger than it looks, and having the fire pit on the deck really helped to keep ticks away. The kitchen is fully supplied, even had a crockpot that I used as I forgot ours. Even has a gas and charcoal grill that came in handy. There was two minor things and they were minor. The AC fan doesn't blow to hard up stairs and takes awhile to cool off. Luckily it cooled off outside when we got there and opened the windows. The last thing is the water does have an odor to it, maybe high in iron but it's not a big thing. We brought bottled water. There is a local place for fire wood, bait shop and the local town is only about 5 min away. Also there is a nice game room downstairs so lots of things to do if the weather is bad. Everyone had fun and we plan to contact Jon again if we make it up to this neck of the woods again. Speaking of Jon he responds quickly with questions and easy to deal with. Highly recommend!!!

Had a great time at the cabin during Birkie weekend up in Hayward. We did not get to spend too much time at the place with the ski race going on, but the cabin was gorgeous and everything was spacious and comfortable. Only thing that would've been nice to have was Wi-Fi, as our cell coverage was spotty, but it's understandable with limited renters probably during the winter. Hope to be back next year for Birkie 2019!
