Nestled on eight acres in the Northwoods, this four-level cabin offers something for everyone. Warm wood floors and exposed wooden beams add to the cozy feeling. The main level features a seating area with a view of the woods outside, a dining area for eight, and a well-equipped kitchen where you’ll find stainless steel appliances, tons of counter space and cabinets, and all the gadgets you need to whip up a feast. There’s also a prep island/breakfast bar with seating for four more. And don’t forget to check out the bathroom right inside the front door—you can bag a triple word score while you use the facilities.

One level up you’ll find another large table set for eight, perfect for a group board game. There’s also an arcade-style Ms. Pacman game and a full-sized fridge, so no need to run downstairs for a fresh beverage. Two of the four bedrooms are on this level, both featuring queen beds and flatscreens. Up on the top level, there’s a seating area with a sectional, two futons, a flatscreen, and mini-fridge – no need to run down to the middle level for a fresh beverage. Two more bedrooms, one with fun bunk beds and one with a twin round out the sleeping options up.

Finally, the bottom level of the home features what may become your favorite: a movie screening room with seating for six and a giant, wall-mounted flatscreen. And two of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are in residence too, just in case you need a hand with any sticky situations. With so much to offer inside, it would be easy to forget about the outside – but don't. Your cabin is dog-friendly, so if you've brought the family pup, bring him outside to explore with you. There's a gas grill, tons of table seating, and a large, covered gazebo with a fire pit, perfect for shooting the breeze year-round. A lake and boat launch are nearby and the home is situated on an ATV and snowmobile trail, so enjoy all the outdoor adventures to be had in the summer. Ice fishing and snowmobiling in the winter mean you will never lack for entertainment options at your Northwoods getaway – inside or out.

Great Getaway
Enjoyable winter getaway. Very clean, easy check-in/out, felt secluded, but close enough to activities near by. I would consider staying here again in the future.

Nice!
Three couples enjoyed this unique home for a weekend getaway. It was clean and allowed us the space we needed. We enjoyed the movie room on the first floor, cooking on the second, and playing games and the video machine on the third. The property management company was quick to respond to our questions.

Cute Cabin
This is a cute cabin that my dog and I enjoyed. Nice views from 1st & 2nd floor. Very pretty yard and easy to get to, even though the immediate area is a little remote. Nice kitchen & two dining tables, so I can see that more people would still have areas to spread out. Good place for a dog, but no fences so I had to keep my dog on leash when we went outside. Internet was good enough for work and to stream tv, but my cell service wasn’t great.

Cozy and Private
My husband and I loved this cabin and the beautiful property. All the unique details inside were cozy and warm, and the expansive windows made looking out through the trees at the deer passing by our favorite part. The icing on the cake was being able to bring our family dog with us - he also loved exploring the property. Vacasa property management was easy to communicate with and organized after the stay began; however, prior to check-in my experience with their customer service was disappointing. I tried to add an additional night to my stay a month prior and over the course of weeks I had multiple encounters with representatives who were rude, untruthful, and ineffective to the point I was unable to book the extra night. To be honest, I would be wary of booking a property managed by Vacasa again. The cabin was very clean and ready for our stay and after checking in everything went smoothly.
