Such a beautiful property! My husband and I spend our “mini honeymoon” here and couldn’t have picked a better rental! We enjoyed kayaking, fishing, walking around the property, a campfire, and took advantage of Copper Falls state park not too far down the road. An amazing little get-away!

This rental was very clean and we enjoyed our stay. We saw deer, ducks and Canada geese on the property. At night there were so many stars! You can't see many in the city, so we loved that.

We fully enjoyed our stay at Camp Eagle Ridge. The cabin was very clean and comfortable. The cabin and the setting was as presented. Very quiet in the day and night. We enjoyed the sunrise on Lake Galilee and the there are more starts in upper Wisconsin then we have at home. The location was easy access to Copper Falls and the town of Ashland on Lake Superior. In Ashland, the Sandy Shores Cafe has a awesome breakfast. Our time went to fast as usual and we will recommend Camp Eagle Ridge to anyone who is looking for a relaxing get away. Thank you, Erik and Kelly !

Beautiful, quiet cabin set inside a youth camp. Off- season so we were the only people there. It was wonderful. Very short drive to Cooper Falls state park. Location was perfect for our needs. We used the pier to enjoy the water. Sat on the patio of the cabin and saw several deer pass through the property. A couple things that could improve the stay, letting us know to bring our own life jackets sooner than the final email 1 day prior, and maybe a couple extra towels. We had 2 bath towels, 1 hand towel and 1 washcloth for 2 adults for 4 nights. This is not a complaint as this was a great place to stay. I highly recommend this cabin and would seek to rent it again if we stayed in this area.

We absolutely loved our stay at Erik’s cabin for our 37th anniversary. The grounds were nicely kept, the nature trail was beautiful and the cabin had everything we needed. This area is a hidden gem! We did not have enough time to see all we wanted to. The beauty is overwhelming, from Copper Falls State Park, to Lake Superior, to Potato Falls (highly recommend) the sights were amazing. We were blessed with brilliant Fall colors and warm weather. We kayaked both nights under an almost full moon and it was spectacular! We were treated to two swans swimming by our lake front our first morning…amazing! We enjoyed our coffee on the lakeside lounge chairs both mornings. No restaurants seemed to be open Tuesday or Wednesday night, but the gas station/grocery store supplied us with all we wanted, very nice folks there. Ribeye steak dinner both nights! We had the perfect trip! Thank you!Bill and Cheryl :)
