Wonderful Getaway!

If you love the northwoods, sound of loons, and beautiful lake view this is a place for you. My sister and I needed a place to stay while visiting nearby family. It was perfect! Super clean and accommodating! We plan to return next year.

Fabulous weekend retreat!

We came up for a short 2 night stay over Memorial Day weekend, and after the first day, wished we could have booked for a full week or two! The cabin is beautifully updated with all the necessary appliances, as well as heat/ac/wifi. We enjoyed the kayaks and sandy beach area as well! Overall, a fabulous private retreat with all the amenities. We did not take advantage of the rentals from the office (DVDs, board games, etc...) but definitely would have if we had stayed longer. If we lived closer we would come back every year!

Mom/Daughter

I brought my 93 year old mother to the area to see fall colors. She was beyond impressed with the cleanliness and set up of the cabin. She said " I could live here for a week"... Accessibility to the lake for her was not doable but I loved going on the dock etc while she watched movies from the great choice available at the resort office...

Peaceful getaway

So peaceful. Just what we needed this year, Such beautiful lake with great hiking trails. Everything we needed was a just a car ride away. The kids had a great time swimming, boating and fishing. Something for everyone to do. My favorite part was coffee in the morning with the lake view.

Beautiful cabin on a beautiful lake

Clean, well appointed cabin in quiet resort. Enjoyed the lake, campfires, and exploring the area. Hosts were very nice, The only minor thing was that I wish we had known we could have had the rowboat at our dock the whole time, for we would have used it. We did rent a boat and motor for a day and it was great to explore the lake. Thanks for a nice stay!
