Balsam lake
The cabin is right on the lake with bald eagles flying by several times a day. The only issue we had was with the bed in room 4, it was very uncomfortable.

Very Nice Place
This place is very clean and the kitchen is well stocked. We spent most of our time on the small tennis court on the property that is the perfect size for pickle ball. We brought removable lines and a net for our stay. There are large cracks in the court which might deter serious players, but added an element of humor and fun for us. There were seven of us, and that there wasn't enough couch/chair seating for all of us to gather in the family room area which was unfortunate. The cabin is older but has been updated and is comfortable. I also didn't realize that the King bed in one of the rooms was actually a day bed and trundle put together which was not ideal for my husband and I who had already set up in that room (better for kids, maybe). The views are beautiful, however, and there is plenty of seating outdoors. We also enjoyed using the two paddle boards. One of us had to work one of the days and was able to connect to a hotspot and use a computer due to no wifi. It was nice to disconnect from tech for a few days as well. Overall, the cabin worked very well for us and we had a great time!

Perfect spot on the lake
We were in a great spot on Balsam Lake - much less traffic and quiet. The house was everything we need to 2 family's of 4. The house is obviously used by family and friends because it is STOCKED with EVERYTHING you need. We were shocked how much was there for us to use. The wifi was no bit deal - our kids were having to much fun to be plugged in and it forced us adults to talk and read and relax. We would come back in a heartbeat and plan to next summer!

Nice Cabin for Family
Cabin worked out great for 5 adults and 2 children. We brought a fishing boat which was easy to to get docked at the cabin. Fishing was also good right off the dock. The screen room was great for relaxing in the evening. We had a very nice time.

Pleasant week at Balsam lake
Awesome lakefront and well kept and stocked home. Great and ample water toys. We especially loved the large screened in porch. We were disappointed that the listing was misleading in one aspect. It neither confirmed or denied that there was WiFi, which would have been useful to know as the house has spotty cell tower connectivity. After we booked it said to contact the host for WiFi information, which made it seem like they would present us with login info, or something similar. However the property does not have wifi at all. We would choose this place again but the owners should clarify WiFi status.

Lake haven
I stayed at this property with friends and had a wonderful time. The screened back porch kept us mosquito free with plenty of seating and room to move around in. The view cannot be beat and the beds were comfortable and large. I would stay again! If you are planning to stay here, know that there is no wifi and no laundry on premises (the listing does not indicate otherwise, these are just two items we accidentally of overlooked when making our selection). Other than that, we had everything we needed!

Relaxing Week on Balsam Lake
The rental on Balsam Lake was a perfect getaway for my family of 5: two teenage sons, mother-in-law, wife, and myself. Bedrooms were well equipped with comfortable beds. The two bathrooms were nice and the showers had great water pressure. The kitchen/outdoor grill has everything you need for meals, including a wonderful dining table for mealtime. We also enjoyed the rentals paddle boards and propane firepit. We were able to rent a pontoon from Sunnyside Marina on Balsam Lake, which allowed us to fully enjoy all of the lake while docking at the rental. You can even get to a few restaurants by water. When we were not on the water, we spent all of our time in the screened-in-porch. It was amazing for playing games, reading, and relaxing. It was a great stay. I would recommend to anyone considering.
