Aj was a great host and the the house was very nice and clean. We came up for my son’s birthday and to go ice fishing. We caught walleye and perch and AJ even left a couple of fishing lures for my son. I would definitely stay here again.

We had a wonderful experience at this vacation property! The home was immaculate, functional and had everything we needed to enjoy the weekend. The lake was crystal clear, clean and beautiful, perfect for swimming, fishing and water sports. The nearby landscape was wooded, which included a nice private drive and trail to walk and a park with a beach. AJ was helpful and responsive in a timely way when we had questions. Checking in and out was smooth. 10/10 would do again! Thank you!

This little cabin was soul healing... the on demand water heater was great, beds were comfy, i was thoroughly impressed! Owner was responsive and friendly.
