About this property

Cabin Retreat Steps from Gull Lake

Gull Haven 700 is a beautiful cabin in the Gull Haven area of our resort, that is closest to the parking area. It has two bedrooms, and three full bathrooms that allow six guests to stay comfortably. It is just a short walk to the popular sandy beach, which allows for more privacy that lakefront cabins lack. Gull Haven 700 is a perfect place for a relaxing getaway, where you are sure to be refreshed when you depart. Make sure to enjoy your morning brew in the sunroom, where you are surrounded by large windows and serene nature views. The sunroom, located just off the dining room and kitchen, would be an ideal place to enjoy lunch in between lake activities. For dinner, make sure to grill up a delicious dinner on the private charcoal grill, or tell old family stories around an outdoor firepit while watching the sunset. Play a not-so-friendly game of poker, while the kids are hanging out with friends on the playground. Gull Haven 700 is a traditional vacation spot, perfect for new memories to be made.
