Peaceful family getaway

This cabin is perfect for a group of people. The several levels provide privacy. We put all of the adult children in the basement and they had their own exit to the beach, the foosball table, bathroom, game area, and tv with sitting area. The kitchen was stocked with all of the appliances/kitchen tools we needed. The private beach makes it especially nice and the lake is so clean for swimming. We loved the paddle board and pedal boat, there were kayaks and canoes available as well. The lake is small but big enough to make all of these small boats enjoyable. The owner was responsive as was the property manager.

Unforgettable Lakeside Getaway – Fun for Everyone!We had an absolutely amazing stay at this beautiful cabin on the lake! From the moment we arrived, we were charmed by the perfect blend of rustic vibes and modern amenities—it truly feels like a home away from home. The peaceful atmosphere made it easy to unwind, and the setting couldn't have been more picturesque.There was something for everyone here! The included water toys—kayaks, canoe, paddleboat, and paddle boards—made for endless fun on the lake. On land, we enjoyed games, a foosball table, an aray of provided board games and plenty of space to relax and play. Even our dog had a blast—the property is super pet-friendly and welcoming for furry family members, which made the experience even more special.A huge shoutout to Shane, the property manager, who was incredibly friendly, responsive, and made sure our stay was seamless from start to finish. You can tell this place is managed with real care and attention to detail.Whether you're looking for outdoor adventure or a peaceful lakeside retreat, this cabin delivers on every level. Can’t recommend it highly enough!

Annual Family Vacation

My husband and I host an annual family vacation for our children and grandchildren. Glacier Pines was the perfect setting for our time together. The house was spacious and comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked which made family dinners a breeze to prepare, serve, and enjoy. We enjoyed snuggles with our grandchildren on the deck while enjoying morning coffee. The best feature is the beautiful lake! Sandy beach, clear & clean water. We enjoyed the kayaks, canoe, and paddle board. Excellent communication from the owners too. Highly recommend this property.

Beautiful hidden gem

This property is a stunning cabin set in the middle of the woods. The cabin itself is well appointed with everything you could possibly need, including SPACE! The sand beach and lake were wonderful for kids who love to splash around! Please be aware that in order to get to the beach, you must take a pretty steep set of stairs which may be tough for those who are literally faint of heart. We would recommend this cabin to anyone, especially large families who want to relax without being on top of each other.

Perfect week at the lake

This cabin is the perfect combination of modern and rustic with the log home build and two story field stone fireplace overlooking the great room. The no wake lake and gradual incline sandy beach made a peaceful and quiet week canoeing, paddle boarding, fishing and swimming. The rain day allowed us to have a game day and take in a movie and dinner in Stevens Point only twenty minutes away although the kitchen provides everything you need to cook a meal of which we made many from breakfast to dinner. Our chocolate lab will need a week to recover from the swimming and walks in w

Wonderful vacation spot

This was our first time trying VRBO and we absolutely loved this log cabin on the lake. Jon and Christina have thought of everything. The place is beautiful and well equiped. We were probably most impressed with the lake and its sandy beach and warm extremely clear water. We had lots of fun catching fish and trying all the water toys they provided for us. We're already talking about booking for next year as we had a great time.

Our Family Gathering

We loved it! The grandkids can’t wait to go back. It is rustic, fairly secluded, and quiet. Just what we wanted. The little lake was perfect for swimming and playing for the grandkids. The kids loved the mountain biking near by. Lots of steps to get down to the water which could be a problem for some but we didn’t mind. Christina was very responsive and easy to work with. Thank you helping us make some wonderful family memories. We hope to come back!

Second visit

We returned here after a couple of years. It is as good, or better than before (which I rated then at 5 stars). Beautiful well-maintained spacious log interior. Large, mostly private acreage, plenty of sandy beach-front access to a perfectly sized clean quiet lake (paddleboard, canoe, kayak, all great to have access to). Steep hike back up from the lake is the only potential issue I could imagine if someone in your group has trouble with stairs. Otherwise, perfect. Quick responses from the owners were also very helpful.

Convenient quiet lake location for family fun

We spent a week here with family and enjoyed the no wake lake with kayaks we brought and the paddle boat supplied at the property. The kitchen is well supplied, the beach is beautiful, the water is so clear. Several of the boys fished and caught multiple fish on the lake. The fire pit area is laid out nice and is great for smores and campfire stories. We used the grill for hamburgers and steaks, it worked great. One thing to consider though its 61 stairs down to the beach so if you are hauling things up and down be prepared. The other thing is due to the open floor plan you dont have much privacy in the house, you can hear everyone everywhere at all times. For us it wasnt a problem but for some people it might be. We golfed a couple courses in the area and getting to town wasn't too bad at all. Overall one of the best family vacations.

A memorable family Memorial Day Weekend

The house worked well for our family, we had 5 adults and two young children. There is a pond that must breed mosquitoes in hot weather, we did encounter a few already, and is also a safety hazard for little kids. The small no-wake lake is perfect for children to play in and learn to paddle or row a canoe or kayak. There were some issues with the house, lots of dust, one bedroom had a crusty carpet spot that smelled like urine. One screen door was broken off. All knives were dull. No collander. No instructions for TV, we never did learn how to operate it. Plenty of general supplies and towels. Comfortable beds. Beautiful view from the deck.

About the host

Host profile image
My family has been enjoying Lake Onland for generations. I love the Amherst and greater Stevens Point area, it has so much to offer. My wife Christina and I have a young family and looking forward to creating many memories at this wonderful property.

Why they chose this property

I've been spending weekends at this lake my entire life. I have many fond childhood memories of camp fires, fishing, swimming, cross country skiing, biking and more. The area has so much to offer that my wife and I recently purchased this wonderful log home set on 3 acres with 250 feet of Lake frontage. Rent this cabin and ensure memories that will last a lifetime.

What makes this property unique

The private beach on this property can't be beat.
