Very Private Cabin on Upper Twin Lake...Great Views...Close to Trails!
Built as a winter or summer escape for a couple or small family, this beautiful four season cabin is a great way to experience the Northwoods of Wisconsin and Hayward area. The home is very private and has great access to the lake, and nearby trails.
The cabin sits on 3.5 acres with 350 feet of frontage on Upper Twin Lake, making for a very private experience. The surroundings and views are very natural. The house itself is of the classic Northwoods archetype: 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, wood fireplace, and ample kitchen, living, porch, and deck space. The kitchen has all the essentials, the bedrooms are cozy, and the fireplace (high-efficiency) will keep you warm at night.
We've made the outside space as enjoyable as possible with a fire pit (firewood provided), picnic area, and dock for your boat. There is a large swim raft 70 yards from dock (take the canoe) in 10-13 feet of spring fed water.
The home is located on the northeastern tip of Upper Twin Lake. The lake is noted for it's great musky and bass fishing, and clear, spring-fed waters. It is also big and deep enough for water skiing and tubing. Upper Twin connects to Lower Twin and the Tiger Cat Flowage, so there is a lot of water to explore. Bird watching is exceptional. Expect to see ducks, geese, swans, and sandhill cranes in the marshy bay in front of the cabin throughout the year. A family of otters doing cute otter things makes an appearance from time to time!
If you are looking to relax in private with your loved ones, this place exudes family time. Whether it is canoeing on the lake, boating to the Blackiron Bar for a burger, catching some fresh fish for dinner, biking the forest roads, or reading on the porch, you will be able to relax undisturbed in this unique Northwoods retreat.
Winter is a very special time here. Whether it is a snowshoe down the shore of the lake, ice fishing, an XC ski session on the famous Birkie trail (5 minutes away), or a weekend of snowmobiling...winter is a great! Try visiting in winter...you will be glad you did!
With the famous resort town of Hayward just 12 miles away you can choose from a variety of world class attractions, restaurants, and shops. There are also several bars, restaurants, and supper clubs within a 3 mile radius.

This cabin was perfect for a quiet get away for my husband and me. The cabin was overall maintained nicely and clean. Having the canoe and paddle boards was a great perk.
Beautiful view of the lake, bring your binoculars for bird watching. Lovely cabin. Nearby restaurant Tavern at White Stag Farm did a great job too. Thank you, would stay again!
Perfect location for canoeing, hiking, solitude and the beauty of loon calls. Great availability of dining establishments. It's a little slice of heaven!
I and a friend had a lovely writers' retreat on this lakeside cabin with a beautiful view and a fireplace. The host responded quickly to our questions, and we felt as comfortable as if we were at home. A beautiful view from the porch and within easy driving distance from the Twin Cities.
Owner was super accommodating. Place was clean and just like the pictures on the website. Close to Hayward, quiet, just a nice VRBO all around. Very Happy with our stay.
We loved this property! It’s absolutely stunning! Everything was clean. The canoe was a blast to take out on the lake. Host was very responsive and accommodating. Would definitely book again!
Great location, love the front porch/room and fireplace. Just perfect for the holiday getaway!! Quiet road so could go on walks! Didnt go near the water due to weather but the views from the house were great!!
Quiet location on a pretty lake. Great views and nice layout. Several nice spots to sit and relax.
The fire pit was in a perfect location. Great biking near by.
Look forward to staying again next year!
My fiance and I wanted to get away for a few days and were lucky enough to find this gem. Amazing place to stay with great amenities and the best sunsets ever! Will for sure rent again. Thank you!
The cabin is cozy and nicely furnished. Views are incredible. The lakeside, marsh, and lake provide photo ops as well as relaxing vistas. The area offers many chances to hike, bike, ski, or just relax and recharge.
Combination of cleanliness, comfort, beauty inside and the surroundings, access to the lake with the canoe and privacy. The silence other than the birds and the wind in the trees, and the darkness at night were quite the gifts to city dwellers.
We had a fantastic time in this cozy cabin for an relaxing anniversary getaway. Close enough to town to easily stock up on supplies, but far enough from the highway that you can feel totally disconnected from the outside world. The view of the lake out the back wall of windows is fabulous. And the place was well stocked with firewood and board games and puzzles for cozy nights in. It was exactly the kind of relaxing getaway we were hoping for.
Beautiful and quiet location on the lake. Cabin was wonderful and had more than we needed. Grounds were perfect down to the lake and very tranquil. A canoe and paddleboards were available for use, we just didn't have a chance to use them but would in the future. Property manager was always very responsive. Highly recommend.
