Pontoon included with your nightly rental, weather permitting.

Come and relax with your family on our private 200' of sand bottom shore line while only being 15 minutes form Hayward.

Whether looking for a quiet vacation getaway with the family, a week on the water with the guys, or a cozy and welcoming home for a reunion in the woods, this luxurious home offers both beauty and comfort. The home is located on the beautiful Tiger Cat Flowage, a 1100 acre, moderately clear water flowage with access to the Tiger Cat chain (Burns, McClaine, Upper Twin, Lower Twin and Placid Lake) perfect for anglers or those just looking for the tranquility of a day on the lake. The home and grounds are perfect for family's or couples looking to escape the hustle of city living, while still providing access to local shopping, site seeing and adventure, with Hayward a short 15 minute drive away. Those looking to explore the wide expanses of wilderness surrounding the home may find deer, eagles, loons, turtles, swan, fox, chipmunks and all types of birds right outside the door!
The site provides a great location for fishing, swimming, hunting, snowmobiling, cross-country skiing and biking, with remarkably close access to trails and amenities.

The large decks offer stunning views of the lake and leave plenty of room for campfires and smores, or relaxing during a majestic sunset with your favorite beverage.

The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need to make meals for your group. The home is also equipped with satellite TV and internet so you can stay connected. We also have a large selection of movies and games to keep you entertained during those down times.

We also have a18 ft 8 person Sylvan Pontoon that is included with our cabin during your stay. The pontoon will be in the water the first weekend of May through the first weekend of October. All of this is weather permitting.

Included with your rental is the use of our paddle board and kayak. The paddle board and kayak are stored on location right by the waters edge for your convenience.

Time to Enjoy the Northwoods
Our family really enjoys our time in the Northwoods and this time was no different. The home was spacious with room for 8 of us to spread out. The bedrooms were comfortable with great pillows, and quality towels (always appreciated). The kitchen had many of the tools & dishware needed and the grill worked great as we cooked most meals at the house. Derek was also great communicating in advance of our stay. We fully took advantage of the pontoon, kayak and SUP. The lake was great for fishing and we saw a family of otters twice! The loons were also very active and eagles were ample too. We also loved the yard Jenga. The only reason that I didn't rate the property a 5 is that some spring cleaning is needed on the back porch and window screens. Lots of spiders and webs. I know it is the woods, so all the more reason to clean up. Two other notes for future guests: We are also big coffee drinkers and appreciated knowing the home only has a Keurig. We brought our own 10-cup pot to use instead. The wifi isn't very strong and no cell service (which is ok for me, but if I needed to work, it wouldn't have been likely). Just plan ahead!

This was a great place for our family vacation! It was quiet and away from everything. We cruised on the pontoon, fished, swam and listened to the loons by campfire.

Relaxing Cabin Retreat
Cabin is on an awesome lake away from the crowds but close enough to Hayward should you want/need to run into town. Owner was great to work with and being able to have use of the Pontoon was an added bonus! Would definitely stay here again.

Cheq 40 Mountain Bike Race Weekend
This cabin was great for our group of friends. Plenty of seating and spaces in the home to be together or spread out. We really enjoyed nighttime campfires. Derek the owner was efficient with responding to any questions we had before arriving. 100% appreciated the outside hose & water hook-up. Perfect for washing bikes after the race.

Majestic Northwoods
Enjoyable stay- The flowage was quiet, fishing was not too bad for July and we must have seen over 50 deer driving to Hayward four times during the week Recommend Tamarack Farms BBQ We would also recommend that a railing be added to the walk down to the lake in the middle section

Cycling Vacation
We stayed at the Loon property for 3 of the days of our yearly girls cycling week. Heard loons every morning and evening - it was so peaceful and a great place to come back to after riding. We swam, used the boat, and had fabulous dinners on the deck. We were so loving the peace and quiet that we never even turned on the TV. Beds are comfy and clean, kitchen well stocked with dishes and anything else you need to make meals. Would definitely stay here again.

Great Wisconsin Lake Vacation
This property was a great fit for our group of 5, 2 blended families. We used every inch of space throughout our week here. We LOVED the use of the pontoon and fished and cruised 4 of the 5 lakes on the chain. Excellent keeper fish the closer you get to Lower Twin Lake. We had fun catching little pan fish off the dock in the evenings. We had great fires in the evenings, played a lot of lawn games in the late afternoons, grilled dinner every single evening, took 2 mile walks each morning, very quiet and private. We loved our week! Could have been a little cleaner but that could be the times with lack of good and consistent help. We would highly recommend this property!

Amazing Property/Host
Love this cabin. Perfect for a weekend of fishing and poker with the boys. Gorgeous area in the spring where we saw all kinds of wildlife, caught plenty of nice bass and enjoyed perfect weather in an ideal setting. Derek is a great host who is very quick to respond, and the house has all the amenities you need for a fun weekend. We will be back!

Comfortable and quiet lodging
The home was clean and adequately equipped. The view of Tiger Cat Flowage is nice. Fall colors were great viewing. We liked the covered porch overlooking the lake. The stairs down to the lake were not tough even for us older folks. We felt very isolated which we enjoy. We would rent here again. Great place. There are a couple of negatives for us. The driveway was difficult to find with all the leaves on the ground. Had to guess a bit on the path. Our original reason for renting was for a fishing trip with friends. It usually involves two vehicles with boats. We like to fish different lakes during our visit. The driveway is not friendly for this setup. We feel it would be difficult getting cars and boats in and out.
