We had a wonderful visit! The cabin is lovely and well stocked for our long weekend with family. The beach and lake were lovely and great for a visit with young kids (shallow, sandy beach and quiet lake). Would definitely visit again!
We had a wonderful, very comfortable stay. The scenery and views to the lake are beautiful. The cabin is very well-appointed and we were very comfortable and cozy. A great place to spend Christmas.
The cabin is beautiful and has all necessities. We enjoyed our 8-day stay. The lake and the beach are real gems. Owners responded right away to any request. Would definitely come back!
Property was prefect for a quick weekend trip with friends. It was a quick 40 minutes drive to Granite Peak for skiing and big enough to have a great après-ski.
We enjoyed the three level cabin with a deck overlooking the trees and lake. The lake water was very clear and you could see tadpoles swimming around. Truely a relaxing family getaway.
Rest, relax and chat for the weekend....catching up with long time friends. This place is perfect for that and the healthy stockpile of firewood makes the evening wind down lovely.
The cabin is fully stocked and has plenty of room. The locations is great 20 min to Stevens point or Waupaca. The lake is beautiful, clean and clear, perfect for swimming. The whole family enjoyed their stay, grandparents to grandchildren. Thank you!
We stayed at this beautiful cabin July 2024. Everything was very nice. Check in was very easy, cabin was well stocked with kitchen utensils, linens, towels, bathroom supplies etc. The beach on the property is so nice and clean. We had many things to occupy our time there. We most definatly will recommend this cabin and hope to return again. We were well satisfied!
This cabin is perfect for a group of people. The several levels provide privacy. We put all of the adult children in the basement and they had their own exit to the beach, the foosball table, bathroom, game area, and tv with sitting area. The kitchen was stocked with all of the appliances/kitchen tools we needed. The private beach makes it especially nice and the lake is so clean for swimming. We loved the paddle board and pedal boat, there were kayaks and canoes available as well. The lake is small but big enough to make all of these small boats enjoyable. The owner was responsive as was the property manager.
This was our first time trying VRBO and we absolutely loved this log cabin on the lake. Jon and Christina have thought of everything. The place is beautiful and well equiped. We were probably most impressed with the lake and its sandy beach and warm extremely clear water. We had lots of fun catching fish and trying all the water toys they provided for us. We're already talking about booking for next year as we had a great time.
Overall we had a very nice stay catching up with family! It was a little dirty when we got there, but ultimately not a huge deal.Pros: --nice area in kitchen/dining area to sit and visit. --beach area is really nice. Soft sand, clear water, and we had fun watching the small fish and looking for snails! Also nice to have the outdoor shower to rinse your feet etc.--nice foosball table downstairs for family fun. --good communication from host.Cons:--there are a LOT (61 to be exact) of somewhat steep wooden steps to get to the beach. Was a little tricky for a couple people in our group with knee issues etc, and I could see how it would be a little tough for small children.--if you are a light sleeper beware--lots of creaks and hard to be quiet to get up at night for using the restroom etc without waking others up. Overall we had a nice stay and enjoyed ourselves. Nice family getaway for a few days.
My husband and I host an annual family vacation for our children and grandchildren. Glacier Pines was the perfect setting for our time together. The house was spacious and comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked which made family dinners a breeze to prepare, serve, and enjoy. We enjoyed snuggles with our grandchildren on the deck while enjoying morning coffee. The best feature is the beautiful lake! Sandy beach, clear & clean water. We enjoyed the kayaks, canoe, and paddle board. Excellent communication from the owners too. Highly recommend this property.
This property is a stunning cabin set in the middle of the woods. The cabin itself is well appointed with everything you could possibly need, including SPACE!
The sand beach and lake were wonderful for kids who love to splash around! Please be aware that in order to get to the beach, you must take a pretty steep set of stairs which may be tough for those who are literally faint of heart.
We would recommend this cabin to anyone, especially large families who want to relax without being on top of each other.
This cabin is the perfect combination of modern and rustic with the log home build and two story field stone fireplace overlooking the great room. The no wake lake and gradual incline sandy beach made a peaceful and quiet week canoeing, paddle boarding, fishing and swimming. The rain day allowed us to have a game day and take in a movie and dinner in Stevens Point only twenty minutes away although the kitchen provides everything you need to cook a meal of which we made many from breakfast to dinner. Our chocolate lab will need a week to recover from the swimming and walks in w
We loved it! The grandkids can’t wait to go back. It is rustic, fairly secluded, and quiet. Just what we wanted. The little lake was perfect for swimming and playing for the grandkids. The kids loved the mountain biking near by. Lots of steps to get down to the water which could be a problem for some but we didn’t mind. Christina was very responsive and easy to work with. Thank you helping us make some wonderful family memories. We hope to come back!

My family has been enjoying Lake Onland for generations. I love the Amherst and greater Stevens Point area, it has so much to offer. My wife Christina and I have a young family and looking forward to creating many memories at this wonderful property.
Why they chose this property
I've been spending weekends at this lake my entire life. I have many fond childhood memories of camp fires, fishing, swimming, cross country skiing, biking and more. The area has so much to offer that my wife and I recently purchased this wonderful log home set on 3 acres with 250 feet of Lake frontage. Rent this cabin and ensure memories that will last a lifetime.
