Got to meet the host Jason , very personable. Loved the cottage, won’t find any nicer, gorgeous view of lake. Enjoyed having a bonfire. Only suggestion is to clearly state bath towels are not provided. Posting said “linens” and we took that to mean bath towels.

Fabulous week up north

We've stayed in this cabin before and it is always well kept. Enjoyed a week of incredible weather, very good fishing, a nice campfire, and peace. Not to mention good food and a cocktail or two. Highly recommend this place for a couple or a small family.

We've stayed here before. Cabin was clean and comfortable as always. Weather was a wild mix of cold, rainy, windy, sunny, warm, and dead calm. Pretty normal for Wisconsin in the fall. Enjoyed the quiet and caught a few fish.

Excellent Property for Boating and Fishing

Everything went seamlessly with our rental from check in to check out. The decor of this cabin is updated and very pleasant. We were very comfortable for space even with five people.

Beautiful serene getaway

The cottage was so cozy and the perfect place for the last leg of our honeymoon. The fall colors on the lake were absolutely gorgeous! Everything was very clean and the living area and kitchen were spacious. Will be back!

We enjoyed our stay at the property. We put our boat in at the landing a couple miles away and were able to leave our boat tied up right outside the cabin. It was quiet and neighbors were friendly. The cabin is very well maintained along with the property. We hope to be back next year.
