Thanks to the Host for being so accommodating! The Cabin was perfect for our trip. We really enjoyed being there and our stay. The cabin was great and well represented and equipped. We'll definitely be back and look forward to our next stay! Thanks!
We truly enjoyed our stay! We loved the seclusion, and the drive to the cabin was lovely! The cabin was clean and comfortable. The only drawback was that the walk down to the lake was difficult for anyone with balance or mobility issues. The lake was pristine and beautiful!
Our stay was amazing. My family loved being in the north woods of Wisconsin. We had everything we needed in the cabin. Having kayaks to explore the lake was an added bonus. We enjoying biking, kayaking, swimming and exploring little towns around the area.
Exceeded all my expectations. First time I’ve done this, and I need never to look again. I couldn’t imagine anything so perfect. The lake, boats and cabin made for a delightful stay. We plan on going back next summer.
Very Kozy cabin! We had gorgeous weather. Sitting on tbe porch was very relaxing. Patio furniture comfotable with nice thick cushions. Really appreciated the light switch and cupboard labels. We definitely did not want to leave! Check out was super easy and not demanding unlike other vrbos we have stayed at. Communication with owner was great. She suggested several places to eat abd thing's to do. Overall a wonderful and relaxing stay!!
Adorable quiet cabin in the woods with outstanding views! Very clean and beds were comfortable. Mellisa answered questions quickly and was very knowledgeable of the area.
This is a nice rustic cabin on a beautiful lake. We used the kayaks and enjoyed paddling about the lake. Biking in the area is wonderful and we did that several days. All in all, it was a nice place to stay in a beautiful scenic area.
It was just what I was looking for. The cabin was spacious - we had 7 people and 2 dogs - and didn’t feel crowded. It was quiet and felt like you were in the middle of no where but only 15 minutes to shopping, restaurants, and more. The kitchen was well stocked with pots & pans, dishes, glassware, etc. They also provided a lot of the essentials like hand soap, paper towels, dish soap, etc. It was so nice to also have access to kayaks and a paddle boat!! We really enjoyed our stay!
Lovely cabin on a small lake. Plenty of space to accommodate our family. It had everything needed to make you feel like home. Very quiet and relaxing.
Try to take the hardtop there, because the gravel road coming from Sayner is a bit bumpy.
Enjoyed a beautiful week in the north woods complete with sunshine and northern lights. The cabin was very clean and comfortable and well-equipped. It’s set far enough from town that you feel like you are truly getting away from it all. Would definitely recommend!
We have a sister and brother in law week every year. The cabin was nestled on a side road overlooking a lake. Simply relaxing looking at it from the deck. All rooms were ample in size. Able to make our food easily. Just a nice stay.
We found everything to be exactly as described by the property owner. The cabin was clean and equipped with everything to meet our needs. We brought two furry friends who were also very comfortable. We loved the lake view and were in easy driving distance of tremendous hiking and biking trails.
This is a nice rustic property. The host did a great job in communicating with us. The location is cozy, comfortable and remote. The hot water was an issue when you have 4 adults and have to wait to shower. We figured it out and couldn’t all take showers at the same time. We also ran the dishwasher when we were gone. A few additions that would be good - scrubber pad - stainless pans are hard to clean without this. Clear instructions on self snow removal. We had to shovel walkway and stairs after 12 inches of snow. Thank you for having lights labeled for use as well as kitchen cabinets. This property is off the main road about 8 miles. It was a very snowy/icy road with a lot of hills and curves - you need to go slow- 25 mph or less. I’m sure in the summer months this is not an issue. We spent a lot of time getting to/from the main road.
Melissa was very responsive to our needs and answered questions as soon as she got them. Cabin was nice and comfortable. Had plenty of supplies and the view of the lake was beautiful! It was a chilly weekend, but we played games and had smores by the campfire. We would love to come back when the weather is nicer!
This cabin was absolutely the perfect fit for our family! It was both cozy and welcoming. It's dog friendly but you'd never know it based on how clean it was. We enjoyed using the kayaks and making s'mores at the fire pit. Melissa was incredibly friendly and made our stay so stress free! We definitely enjoyed our vacation in Wisconsin this summer and look forward to our next trip.
