Rustic 1920s Lakefront Cabin with 2 Bedrooms + Sleeping Porch

Welcome to our family cabin! “Castle Point” is a rustic 2 bedroom cabin located directly on the Chain O’Lakes. It sits on a 1 acre wooded lot overlooking Beasley Lake with a large private dock (bring your boat) and fire pit. Beasley is part of the main chain and also provides quick access to the upper chain via Beasley Creek. The lake is deep and clear of vegetation off the dock for great swimming. We provide two kayaks and two canoes as well as firewood. The cabin is a short drive to restaurants, boat rentals and shopping.

A few things to consider before booking:

- Bath and beach towels are NOT provided- guests must bring their own. All bed sheets, blankets, pillows are provided. Hand towels are also provided.

- The property is best suitable for no more than 6 adults. Larger family groups (adult/kid mix) up to 8 are welcome.

- No parties, events or large group gatherings.

- If your group is more than 4 people please be aware you will need to utilize the screened-in sleeping porch. The porch overlooks the lake and you are essentially sleeping outside (a fun experience!). All bedding for the porch is provided but guests make up their own beds on the porch upon arrival.

- This is a SUMMER cabin with no central heat. It can be heated but please read the note "AC/Heat" below. The bedrooms and living room have AC.

- The fireplace may be operable during chilly weather but not guaranteed.

ABOUT: Castle Point is a rustic cabin/cottage located directly on the Chain O' Lakes. It was built over 100 years ago and has been in the same family ever since. We provide a vintage Northwoods experience. The cabin is old fashioned and rustic with tons of character and charm and is very well loved. We do our best to provide a clean and comfortable space with various updates and some modern amenities. *If you are looking for a fully updated space or hotel experience this may not be the place for you.* Also please note that there are numerous steps leading down to the lake (see photos).

THE LAKES/SURROUNDING AREA: Beasley Lake is a peaceful no-wake lake connected by a short channel to Long Lake and the rest of the Chain. The shoreline of Beasley is natural so there is no beach or hard sandy bottom but the water at the end of the dock is deep and free of vegetation for great swimming. There is a ladder for easy in and out of the water. Larger "wake lakes" are adjacent to Beasley for boating, waterskiing and tubing. The Upper Chain is also easily accessible by nearby Beasley Creek for kayaking and canoeing in a tranquil state park setting. We provide two kayaks and two canoes. Beasley Creek is a great shallow spot for kids to play. Tom Thumb mini golf is two doors down and Hartman Creek State Park is within walking/biking distance. Boat launches and rentals, restaurants and shopping are also nearby.
