A beautiful lakefront home! It was perfect for our little group getaway to hike the ice age trail and enjoy time together. The outside fire pit was fantastic and lots of firewood. The inside fireplace was warm and cozy. I would definitely stay here again.

The cozy cabin provided ample comfort and space for my family to have both together time and privacy. The beautifully kept property did have one bathroom/toilet issue that required addressing. We were all grateful to have such a lovely place to call home for a week and would be very happy to stay there again. The fireplace was a big draw on cold November days. Many memories were made :)

We enjoyed the lake, the water temp in the 50’s but my group swam daily. Fire pit was nice and wood provided. In town for a wedding, the property worked out well.

A wonderful Wautoma stay!

We had a wonderful stay with our daughter, son-in-law and grandson in Wautoma at this beautiful VRBO. It was central to a few day trips but we also just enjoyed being together and hanging out in the water( especially our 3 year old grandson- he said the water was his favorite part if the trip). We are already talking about returning next summer.
