The views from the hill are spectacular. The water is very clear but was only 63 degrees, so we were unable to swim. Fishing was not very good. Access is to the lake is okay -- you do have to walk down several steps and cross a not very busy road to get to the pier. As such, I would not recommend this for elderly, small children, or people with dogs that are not well behaved. We are in our 60s and were able to navigate the steps with no problem. Crandon and the grocery, liquor and bait stores are a very short drive away. The cabin is a bit spartan and dated, but had everything we needed as far as cooking. It could use some updates and TLC. The beds are comfortable. There is only one parking spot near the cabin, with additional parking about 50 yards away. Unfortunately, we were victims of some bad weather, crazy storms and high winds. My 16' boat got hammered on the pier, damaged, and eventually swamped which is no fault of the owner. We were only able to use our boat 3 out of 6.5 days as a result. Nonetheless, we had an enjoyable time. It's getting harder to find rentals that accept dogs, and thankfully Kathy still does.
