Why Richard Dechene chose Long Lake
The Honeymoon has been helping guest create beautiful memories for over 100 years. It is located on the former Deerland Lodge property, a resort from the turn of the last century. It has been renovated to have modern conveniences with old world charm. An enclosed iron tub provides a perfect spot for a bubble bath after a long hike or day lounging on the dock.

Fresh flowers and a fire when we arrived
Unbeatable view of Long Lake, romantic cabin, great fishing from dock, the Wild Center nearby.
We are delighted that you felt welcomed and had a good vacation visiting the wonderful The Wild Center. Welcome back anytime!
A wonderful getaway
We came for a long restful fall weekend and that is what we got. Very peaceful, comfy place to stay. Our favorites are the screened in porch and to have morning coffee at the kitchen nook which was complete with a beautiful view. The thermostaticasly controlled gas fired stove was so perfect for this fall weather. Agree with many of the other comments.
So happy you had a good time. Welcome back anytime!
Beautiful location, great Cabin, clean and awesome views
This was a great place to stay. We had 3 wonderful days in the Cabin. It was quiet, clean, and the lake view was awesome. Next time we will bring a canoe to get on the lake and fully appreciate this great spot. Place was well kept and owners were friendly and nearby if needed. We would definately come back.
Glad you had a good time. Welcome back anytime!
Never want to leave!
Beautiful, peaceful setting. Perfect for 1-2 persons. Comfortable bed & chairs. Reading lamps are adequate (very important for us). Excellent, reasonable restaurants in the village and in nearby communities. WiFi works fine. The owners/hosts are nearby, if needed; total privacy if not. Our most frequent neighbors are ducks, birds, an occasional deer. Set on a lovely large lake surrounded by hills and mountains. Who needs more? Not yours truly! We’ve been renting this cabin for several years, and plan to continue.
We are glad that you enjoy your time at the Honeymoon Cottage and hope you will return for years to come!
A great stay at Long Lake!!
The 'Honeymoon' cabin lived up to all of our expectations, if not exceeding them!!! Thanks Richard for a great 4 days at Long Lake! We look forward to coming back!
Welcome back anytime!
Beautiful and peaceful
It was perfect for us. Clean, well maintained, and a quiet, beautiful spot on Long Lake! Our hosts were welcoming and even though they reside on the property, we had plenty of privacy. Would highly recommend!
It's nice to have wonderful guests. Welcome back anytime.
