A great Winter's Getaway

Let me start by saying, it's easy. No need to have any anxious concerns, Miranda has it all covered. The cottages are clean as can be, so well equipped with kitchen stuff and bathroom stuff, bedroom stuff and other stuff too. It is such an absolute pleasure making stays here with Amanda seeing to it that all of our needs are met, whatever they may be. It was a good find for me several years ago and we keep finding ourselves with the need to return each year. It will be a good find for you too. Bill Lanham, Glenwood, Illinois.

A nice weekend stay!

We stayed here at the end of April and it was the perfect weekend getaway for our family! Very cozy cottage and the full kitchen was perfect. Beds were comfy. Very clean. Great location from downtown and very easy to access. We would love to come back when the weather is warmer to enjoy all the amenities!

Great relaxing time

We loved our time at the cabin. It was fantastic having everything right there for us. We’re able to use the Jon boat, kayaks, and paddle boards in the lake which was so clear. Sunset over the lake too were beautiful to watch from the living room or screened in front porch. The weather wasn’t always cooperative but great times were had by all.

Great winter getaway

The cabin was very nice and clean. The fishing was good. The only issue was we and other guests were told there would be plenty of room for trucks with trailers, but there really wasn't, so the lake access was blocked one morning. Make sure you plan ahead of you have trailers. If it wasn't for that, it would have been perfect.

Great stay

Brand new cabin. Nice to have access to John boat, paddleboards, and kayaks. The hammock was so amazing that we bought one from the local man who makes them. The owner was super nice and brought us a pastry one morning, which was lovely. Overall a great stay. The only thing we had trouble with was the people staying in the other cabins around us. We were suppose to have our own kayak, paddleboard, and chairs due to COVID and the neighbor's kids constantly took them from us. I think it needed to be explicitly said that everyone had their own equipment and it needed to stay with the cabin. Our goal was to have a relaxing week, and it was but I wish I had known other cabins were so close. Never really had any silent time to just enjoy the outdoors. I would 100% come back, but with my extended family or a large group of friends so we could rent all 4 cabins and have it all to ourselves... with the goal to socialize and not to chill.

Amazing Vacation

It was not a lot of people this time of the year. Because it is not Christmas or Summertime or Spring Break. My husband and our son went to this vacation with my husband's brother. He came from Ukraine recently. They mostly fished and cross country skied. I was not there, but I called them everyday and I was interesting about their day. They told me - beds are soft and comfortable. All lakes are not too far from this property. Also, it was a lot of snow and ice on the lakes was pretty thick. We are form Illinois and this year it was not a lot of snow and pretty warm for winter. We always want to come back to Northern Wisconsin on Summertime and Winter, any time of the year. We always check if the vacation cottage was good enough for us asking ourselves - do we want to come back? YES we want to come back to this location. Just one thing they did not like: too early Check Out time at 9:00 AM. Please make it at least at 10:00 or 11:00 AM. Thank you! The End of February - Beginning of March 2023

Cozy Winter Getaway

We spent a week in the Musky Cabin at the Timberlane Resort and had a wonderful time. We were able to access the area snowmobile trails from the cabin and had good luck ice fishing Meta Lake. The cabin is beautifully finished and well-outfitted. We spent warm and cozy nights by the gas fireplace. The cabin had reliable wifi, a smart TV and a charcoal grill. The kitchen had everything we needed and more. Highly recommend and plan to stay again!

Fantastic Retreat

Absolutely loved our weeklong stay in the Musky cabin! Everything was exactly as pictured & described. Beds we're very comfortable. The screened in porch was exceptional for watching all of the beautiful nature. It was really nice having a motorized boat included for some lake fishing. We thoroughly enjoyed the campfire and the peace and quiet! Enjoy the squirrels, two chipmunks and even two deer along the shoreline in the evening. We definitely plan to come back!!

Great place for a family getaway

Wonderful place for our family of 5 to stay for a week. Kids (ages 6 and under) couldn’t get enough of the beach and sandy lake. Corn hole and ping pong were a hit, and we also enjoyed walks down the surrounding lake roads. The only challenges we ran into was the lack of storage for food in the kitchen - it’s so well stocked, we had to keep our pantry food on the counter. Overall nice place and we would stay again.

Stunning Property Equipped With Everything You Need

My family and I rented the Bass and Musky cabins and were so very impressed! They were beautiful! A lot of thought went into the decor and set-up of the cabin. The board games were a very nice touch! We also appreciated how well the kitchen was equipped-- Pyrex baking dishes and even a crock pot! Even though it was a little chilly, we were still able to enjoy the beach and kayaks. The water was super clear, and the fish came right up to us when we were standing in the water, which was so fun for the kids! I would highly recommend Timberlane Resort. Taylor was a pleasure to work with, and we look forward to our next stay!

Excellent stay!

While it was cold for the weekend, we thoroughly enjoyed fishing on the lake! There were so many amenities to enjoy (more if it would have been warmer)! The only negative is the property manager said she'd bring us batteries for the fireplace remote and didn't - we had to keep moving the batteries back and forth between the TV remote and fireplace remote. We also tried to contact the PM on Saturday for assistance and didn't hear back until Sunday morning after we were able to resolve an issue on our own. We would definitely stay again though!!
