Sandy beach, quiet lake, great fishing & beautiful sunsets w/2 kayaks & gameroom
**Welcome to Your Northwoods Getaway on Quiet Crystal Lake**
Tucked into the heart of Wisconsin’s Chequamegon National Forest, your dream lake vacation awaits. Picture this: Mornings spent sipping coffee on a large deck overlooking glassy waters, sunny afternoons kayaking from your private beach, and evenings gathered around a crackling lakeside fire pit under the stars. At our Crystal Lake retreat, every moment invites relaxation, adventure, and lasting memories.
**Lakeside Living at Its Best** Step outside to your own private paradise—sandy lake frontage with a gently sloping yard, perfect for swimming, sandcastle building, or simply lounging in the sun. A private dock and your own private beach offers direct access to the clear, 117-acre lake, ideal for boating, fishing, or jumping in for a refreshing swim. You’ll have full access to a row boat, two kayaks, and a pedal boat to explore the lake at your leisure.
**Room for Everyone** The main house is warm, bright, and built for gathering. With three bedrooms, a cozy loft, and two bathrooms, there’s space for the whole family—or two! The open-concept living room features a wall of windows that frame sweeping lake views, and the fully equipped kitchen makes preparing meals a joy. Whether you’re cooking dinner, playing games in the loft, or relaxing on the couch with a movie, you’ll feel right at home.
The main-level master suite includes two queen beds, a walk-in closet, and a private bath with direct access to the deck and lakeside views. A second main-level bedroom features a king bed and full bath nearby. Upstairs, the loft offers a kids’ dream hideaway with two twin beds and a fun play area, plus there’s a queen sofa bed in the living room for extra sleeping space.
**The Ultimate Bonus Space – Game Room & Guest Quarters** Just steps away is the detached garage, transformed into a two-level bonus space. The lower level is a fully stocked game room—complete with pool table, foosball, board games, and another Smart TV. It’s the perfect rainy-day retreat or evening hangout.
Upstairs, you’ll find two additional bedrooms: one with five twin beds and another with a queen bed, plus a full bathroom. This space is both heated and air-conditioned, making it perfect for year-round stays.
**Nature, Adventure & Tranquility – Right at Your Doorstep** Located on the quiet shores of Crystal Lake, you’ll be surrounded by over 850,000 acres of protected forest. Whether you’re seeking peaceful relaxation or outdoor adventure, you’re in the right place.
**Fishing Paradise:** Crystal Lake is home to panfish, largemouth and smallmouth bass, and walleye. Launch your boat from the nearby public landing or tie up at our private dock. In winter, enjoy easy access to excellent ice fishing right out front.
**Trail Access from the Front Door:** Hop on your snowmobile or ATV/UTV and connect directly to the extensive Bayfield County trail system. Ride through dense forests, past lakes and streams, and across some of Wisconsin’s most beautiful and remote terrain. Rentals are available nearby if you don’t bring your own.
**Four Seasons of Fun:** In the fall, come for the vibrant colors and great hunting options nearby. In the winter, enjoy cross-country skiing on area trails—or try out a ski trail near by. Come spring and summer, hike or bike through miles of CAMBA trails or the scenic North Country Hiking Trail. No matter the season, the outdoors is calling.
**The Perfect Launchpad to Explore Northern Wisconsin** Beyond the lake, you’re perfectly positioned to explore all the charm and culture Bayfield County has to offer—from local eateries and craft shops to scenic drives, berry farms, and historic sites. Whether you're here for a weekend or a week, you’ll quickly see why guests come back again and again.
**Make Your Escape to Crystal Lake** Whether you're casting a line at sunrise, stargazing from the dock, or laughing with loved ones over s'mores, your time at our Crystal Lake retreat will be filled with comfort, beauty, and unforgettable moments. Come ready to relax, reconnect, and write your next favorite chapter in the Northwoods.

Thank you for the review and the great picture! So good to hear that the cabin was perfect for your needs. We love snowmobiling up here as well! Hope to see you return!
This was a great space for our two family trip! We especially appreciated the separate space for games. This cabin was very near the snowmobile trails that we were here for. Cabin owner was easy to contact. There was room for 2 trailers.

Thanks for your review. We finally have a great winter of snow! Glad to hear you had a good time snowmobiling and enjoyed the game room.
We had a fantastic time during our stay at this cabin on Crystal Lake. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen was well stocked, the cabin was clean, the game room and whole cabin set up worked really well for our family. One of the highlights was how close the cabin is to the water with minimal stairs, as well as the sandy beach and clear water for our whole family to enjoy. Would stay here again and would recommend to others!
The stay was nice and the place was well-kept. Great communication with hosts and an overall great stay. Only negative was some neighbors that seemed irritated to have a vacation rental next door and were quick to complain to hosts.Would Reccomend!!
This cabin was absolutely perfect for our annual family weekend!! The cabin exceeded our expectations! Not only did it have plenty of space for us to stay, its location was on a quaint lake with a nice sandy beach perfect for relaxing! The owners were very responsive and quick to resolve the very minor things that popped up.
Beautiful view of the lake from house. Sandy, shallow lake for little ones! Kids had a great time on the kayaks and pedal boat. Everyone had a good time in the game room playing pool and foosball.
This is the second year we stay here for Labor Day Weekend and I just booked us for next year as well. The water and beach area is super clean so it was perfect for the kiddos. The adults had a blast in the game room that’s in the “Garage”. Thanks for making this property available for our family! See you next year!!
Beautiful and spacious place. Nice location. The fishing and wildlife were awesome. It was too cold to get into the lake, but the boys did take the kayak and the rowboat out to fish. the UTV trails were a blast.
Great stay - relaxing, peaceful, but also lots to do
We had a great time staying in Crystal Lake. The shallow water at the end of the dock was the perfect peaceful place for hours of playing in the water. We also enjoyed fishing and the game room. All in all it was a great stay.

So happy your family had a good vacation and the little ones had fun in the lake! We look forward to your return.
My daughters and their families gathered at this property which worked beautifully for us. The kids are ages 2-9 and enjoyed fishing, kayaking, sand construction, swimming, and the upstairs lofted kids’ hangout. The set-up with the separate spaces over the garage and two bedrooms within the main cabin provided ample space for families to spread out for sleeping. Attention has been given to details including decorating, cooking, playing, etc. We have already booked for next year!
The cabin was exactly as described in the listing. It was the perfect home base for our Birkie weekend. It is a quick trip to Cable and a nice quiet place to relax.
The owners were very responsive to our questions.
We had a great time just relaxing with friends we havent seen in awhile. The cabin was beautiful and everything was spotless!
