Can’t beat a day on the lake! Very accommodating hosts, great location and would absolutely stay again and recommend to everyone! Lots of fish in the lake! Plenty of choices to eat in town and we enjoyed Anglers Bar! I only wish I had paid more attention to listing. You have to go to laundromat to wash clothes and in high heat fans didn’t help much. The main floor bedroom was very hot, but heat was extreme that week.

Loved the Cabernet Cabin

The Cabernet cabin was perfect for our family- our girls ran out and jumped in the water each morning, and love the bonfire at night. Kathleen and Steve were so kind and welcoming. It's was great stay, and we plan to come back!

Amazing lake house!

The house is just as advertised. It was so cozy and clean and beautifully decorated. And the fact that it’s right on the water (and I mean RIGHT on the water!) was a terrific bonus!

Cozy cabin bya quiet lake

We had a wonderful stay in the Northwoods at the Cabernet Cabin! It's on a great spot on a quiet lake. The cabin is clean and cozy. The owners Kathleen and Steve are very friendly and welcoming. Lots to do and see in the area - it's an easy drive into Hayward for shopping and dining. A great escape from city life!

Family Getaway

We enjoyed our time together at the Cabernet Cabin. Location was perfect for fishing and checking out the area. Our 3yo loved the toys and books in the little nook under the stairs. We will definitely book again and bring our fishing boat next time! Thank you for the memories :)
