It was the perfect location for our annual fall UTV ride. Rooms to accomodate our group comfortably. The screen porch and outdoor grilling area were perfect for evening dinner and hanging out. The private trail to get to the public trail system was a fun little challenge, as it's a tight fit for our 4 seater machines. Overall, we loved it!

We rent someplace in the Winter area every year in October for a weeklong grouse hunt. This cabin was by far our favorite. It was exceptionally cleaned, well kept, well stocked, and well laid out. Chris was a fantastic and accommodating host and made sure everything was set for our arrival. I would highly recommend this property for any group. It is a great combination of multiple comfortable living spaces in a peaceful quiet setting.

We had a great time staying at this property and enjoyed all the amenities it had to offer. Having the pontoon included with the house was amazing and we enjoyed going out for evening rides. There were plenty of bedrooms for everyone to have their own space. The game room in the garage was a great to keep us entertained on a rainy day. We are hoping to stay again in the future!

This house is absolutely amazing! Beautiful inside and out. We loved the pool table and shuffleboard in the garage! We also played card games, went fishing on the great pontoon, watched a movie and sports! It rained a bit but there were beautiful rainbows! This was our second stay and definitely will be back. Our family consisted of 8 people ages 50 to 91! Thanks you!

Fantastic place!

This was perfect for our 3 generation family! The house is beautifully refreshed with comfortable beds, very nice bathrooms and decor. The setting is perfect on a lake and the amount of boats and toys are amazing! We played outside all day when the weather was good and stayed just as busy indoors in the game room and screen porch. They have thought of everything you could need. Very responsive to questions. Would love to come again!

A Comfy Winter Stay

House was nicely kept and served us well as we stayed for the Birkie in nearby Hayward. We even skied out in the lake one day. Beds were very comfortable and rooms all have blackout curtains, so we all slept well! Well-equipped kitchen. Nice place!

About the host

Hosted by Chris Davies

Host profile image

We wanted to purchase a lake home in Sawyer county. We love all that it has to offer from fishing, ATV, snowmobiling etc. We want to have our family and friends enjoy this new purchase as much as we are going to.

Why they chose this property

We plan on retiring to Wisconsin for the summer months in about 10 years but in the mean time we would like to take advantage of a vacation home for the next few years.

What makes this property unique

We liked this home for its easy access to the water, but we also enjoy remodeling, so get ready for new updates and added features to come. We are very excited to get started.
