This is a great cabin in Hayward. We enjoyed the property. We used the canoe and caught Bluegills & Walleyes off the dock. The bed, shower and air conditioner were very comfortable. We also used the free tickets to the Lumberjack show and mini golf across the street Highly recommend!

Perfect family getaway!

It was perfect for our first family vacation! Had great privacy but still close to everything. The kids had a blast at mini golf and the Lumberjack show! Husband loved the fishing and bait shops, I loved the stores and restaurants.

Hayward Lumberjack Village

The cabin was very clean and comfortable. Everything was as advertised, and I wouldn't hesitate to book here again. Good communication from host as well.

Great cabin at the Lumberjack Village

Thanks for a great time at the village. Cabin had a lot of character. Was comfortable and accomodating. You do receive complementary mini golf and lumberjack show tickets which is a very nice touch. Would certainly stay again!

While the cabin is great, from the photos I thought the property was private... it is a resort, with lots of things to do and a restaurant on the property. This would have been fun during the summer when in season. We didn't stay the whole weekend. I was very disappointed. This trip was for our anniversary.

Mini Getaway

We were very happy with our stay and both of our girls (11 & 13) are already talking about going back next year. There is an ice cream shop and mini golf within walking distance. We would recommend it to friends and family & would also stay again if we decide to go to Hayward in the future.

It was a great cabin!

We did have a great time. Enjoyed the cabin & the back very much. We were just caught off guard by the closeness of the property to the city streets & public walking and lack of privacy during the shows. But all in all we did enjoy ourselves. The owner/manager was great!

Nice accommodations

The cabin is spacious with nice amenities. The downstairs was cool, and the upstairs was warm. The only downside to me is being right in lumberjack village, people visiting the lumberjack show had to walk across our front porch to enter and exit the show

A nice surprise

My husband and his buddy went to Hayward area for few day “marathon”musky fishing and I booked a cabin for them to stay in. They loved this cabin and were really surprised by its size and sad they didn’t have a chance to use the pier and fish the lake it was right on it. They would ho back in a heart beat.

Relaxing and quiet

There is not a lot to do in this town but the cabins were cute and quiet. It was a nice stay but bring your own pots and pans. The ones there were rusted and peeling. The doors being wood were difficult to close at times. We went into the Mainstream Boutique and the lady that we encountered there was absolutely lovely. Everyone we came into contact with on the property was friendly and pleasant. Communication with the owners was prompt and questions were answered quickly. The cabins could use a little TLC but just because it’s older. All in all a good stay!

The good and the bad

The cabin is as described. It is the perfect amount of space for 3-4 people. To update comments from past reviews-- kitchen supplies are fine. We had all meals at the cabin as eating out is hard with dietary restrictions. More than enough pots/pans, utensils, etc and all in decent condition. The lake isn't favorable for swimming at the cabin which we knew, and the dock is crooked, but I never felt unsafe as it is very stable. Parking was a problem when a lumberjack show was going on. I messaged Rhonda and got a prompt reply that the parking spot at the cabin would be left open for us. At first glance the cabin is clean, but we found nicotine lozenges under a bed and boxers in a drawer. I let Rhonda know and again received a quick response, but it worries me that my dog could have found the lozenges, or what if I had a young child that found them? I am sure they will ensure this won't be a problem for future guests, as it seems like problems of past renters have been remedied.

Liked: Check-in
Communication prior to our stay was great!! Check in was very easy!! Cabin was pretty clean, however, you could definitely see that the cleaning people did not like cleaning under things. The furniture in the living room or lack of was not very comfortable. 1 3person couch that was very uncomfortable and a wooden rocker. The bed was so so, however, I think it might have only been a full size bed. The bedroom could fit a king size. There was a TV in the living room and we thought we were supposed to have cable, but we only had Vizio TV. The bedroom TV did not have a remote and was not a smart TV. We also had a clogged bathtub every time we showered it would fill up ankle deep and then very very slowly drain. I had sent a message and called about both the TV in the bedroom and the clogged drain the day after we arrived. We were told Michelle would fix the issue with the bedroom TV and then told that Fred was out of town and would have someone look at the clog on Saturday. We never heard back about either item. If you are looking to fish from the pier, good luck!! Very very shallow and weedy!! As for the lumber Jack show, they really need to direct the spectators to the parking lot in order to get to the show instead of directing them to follow the boardwalk in front of the rented cabins.We enjoyed ourselves but probably would not stay here again.

Rest-A-While Cabin

We stayed here over 4th of July weekend. We booked about a week before, so there were limited options available in the area. The owner contacted me via phone the same day I inquired about the property. She described the cabin and facilities accurately, although I would say the cabin is not as off the beaten path as she lead me to believe. We stayed in the "Rest-a-While" Cabin with our 2 kids and dog. The cabin was roomy, clean, well equipped and everything was in working order (no DVD's or dishwasher detergent though). The description and pictures are accurate. The kids loved the paddle boat and row boat, mini golf (included and across the street). The Lumberjack show was a big hit with my kids (9 & 12) We enjoyed eating on the deck and used the fire pit (unlimited wood thanks to those hardworking lumberjacks!) The cabin was much closer to the Lumberjack village than we thought; it is connected to the path system and next to an Edina Realty office. Occasionally people walked to our end, but since that was the front of the cabin it wasn't a big deal. It was very quiet Saturday afternoon after the Lumberjack show and in the evenings. Everyone (rental folks, employees in restaurant and ice cream shop) was very friendly. All in all it was a pleasant stay. If you want a secluded northwoods experience, this is not the place for you. If you want to be within walking distance to mini golf, go-karts, restaurants & bars then you will be very pleased with the location. Downtown Hayward is about a 10 minute walk away.

Nice property located very near everything including much bigger Nelson Lake. 10 minutes to Walmart, 5 to Main Street, while steps from the beautiful, peaceful Hayward Lake. Some dirty dishes, doors several doors shutting hard/ loud. Very nice appliances and facilities. Loved the Lumberjack show (twice) and beat mini golf we’ve seen in a long time. Hosts courteous and prompt in responses. Would absolutely visit again.

Not enough time

Didn't have enough time to full enjoy this great cabin. Plenty of space for all your stuff. Parking right out front for easy load in and out. Nice dock right out your back door. Walking distance to town if needed. Would stay here again.

Great location and activities!

We enjoyed our stay very much! Was a perfect location for us all.... fishing, mini golf, lumber jack show, close to shopping. The cabin was the right size for our family. The bed was a bit uncomfortable, but it was manageable. Surprised there was not even salt + pepper, just like description, only coffee filters. Communication was clear and got back to us within a reasonable time frame. We would definitely stay again! Thank you!!
