About this property

Unplug, Unwind, and Explore at Papa's Place.

Welcome to our lakefront cabin, a heartfelt throwback to Papa's place - where summer days stretched forever, fishing lines danced in the water, and evenings meant card games by lamplight. We've captured that classic cabin charm and paired it with the modern comforts you love. We have a fully equipped kitchen, high-speed Wi-Fi, smart TV's, keyless entry, and ring camera protection. Nestled right on the water's edge, this cabin invites you to slow down. Sip your morning coffee on the patio, listen to the loons call, or roast marshmallows by the fire pit. Whether you're reliving childhood memories or making brand new ones, this is the kind of place that feels like it's always been waiting for you.

Tranquility

Papa's Place was so clean and very peaceful. Close to everything yet quiet and relaxing. Enjoyed the kayaks and air hockey table. Rebekah was an amazing host and spot on with details. Would highly recommend staying there!

Check in and then coming and go was very easy! Lots of necessities left in case we forgot or needed something! The views out the back were beautiful, kayaking was awesome, and walking around the half the lake equaled about 2.5 miles! Highly recommend- we will be back!

Papa’s place was perfect for us. All the little extras was very nice, including slippers, snores stuff and candy by the bed. The game room was very nice as well. We didn’t get out on the water but there was plenty of life jackets and kayaks. The fire pit by the waterfront was just what I needed for my morning coffee. I hope to go back next year.
