Fantastic 2 night stay with our young adult kids! Plenty of space and beautifully remodeled. The cabin was immaculate and hosts were very responsive! This cabin would be wonderful for kids of all ages. The lake is very pretty with lots of mature trees and well kept homes. Easy trip to town for necessities or dining out.

VRBO Maple Lake

Property was clean, kitchen was well stocked, and the lake was nice, but busy. The bedrooms needed a little more furniture for suitcases, clothes, cell phones, etc. And the property could maybe use a privacy fence out front. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would recommend this place to others. Thanks for letting us use the place.

WOW. this place was outstanding. The location, the views, the woodwork, the amenities (close to a coffee shop, games galore, k cups, chocolates as a gift, so many dishes for cooking, pack n play already set up...). This place is phenomenal and a wonderful place to spend our first Christmas with our 9 month old. I hope to come stay at the cabin again one day.
