About this property

Quiet, peaceful cottage on the lake

This is a quaint 2-bedroom cottage on Razorback Lake. Come relax, unwind, and refresh at this peaceful and beautiful Northwoods getaway! Full recreation, 362-acre lake, boasts only 38 private parcels, 4 state-owned islands, and miles of pristine State-Owned Shorelines. Recently renovated bathroom, flooring, ceiling, and siding. Easy access to the lake via boat or snowmobile. We have two bedrooms with very comfortable queen-sized beds. The loft can accommodate several more guests (best for older kids). Fire pit and chiminea for hours of enjoyment, roasting marshmallows, and hanging out. Hundreds of cycling trails (paths and off-road) are nearby. Hiking, snowshoeing, and snowmobile trails as well.

We have a long private dock to park your boats or sit and take in the view on the lake. We also have kayaks available for use. We do not have boats for guest use, but we can refer you to local businesses that deliver for rental. The cabin is conveniently located on the snowmobile trail.

Wonderful cabin on a beautiful lake. Close proximity to bike trails and hiking trails. Very dog friendly spot and very thankful the hosts allow dogs as ours were in heaven. Would definitely recommend this cabin and host to others looking for a beautiful place to get away.

We had an amazing stay. Working with Madeline was a pleasure. Everything was as advertised. Only hiccup was with the internet but it wasn’t a big deal. They had docks in, kayaks ready and firewood. Thanks for everything.

Peaceful, Homey Cabin. 5 Stars!

We loved our stay at Craig's cabin. It had everything we needed and more, for a peaceful and quiet fall getaway. The cabin was super clean, and beds were the best we've ever had at a VRBO. Deer wandered through the yard several times, and it was so quiet! Wish it would have been a little warmer, we would have liked to use the kayaks. Craig was helpful, and a great host. Thank you for sharing your family's cabin.

beautiful views for relaxation

4 days of relaxation. Spent quality time together without interruptions. I have been coming to Razorback Lake since I was 7 years old. I am now 76. We always camped. We no longer camp and still wanted to come here so your cabin was perfect. We enjoyed the deck and if the weather wasn't as wet, we would have used it more. You offer many amenities for your guests. So many books and movies. We are hoping to return again.

Absolutely serene

lovely cabin on the lake. It was late in the season, but the fall colors were wonderful. Even though the weather was a little cold everything you need and lots of things that you might need are provided. There were plenty of movies, books puzzles, to keep anyone busy but the views and the peace and quiet were the best bar none. It was so quiet that the only thing that wakes you up in the morning is an owl the beds were simply Divine. I slept better than I do at home in my own bed. I can’t wait for the calendar to open up so that I can book again next year , thank you so very much for allowing me to share this little bit of heaven in the woods. The owners were very nice and kept in contact to make sure that everything was to my liking. I would recommend this property to anyone you won’t be disappointed ever I can’t wait to go back again next year!!

About the host

Hosted by Craig Conrad

Host profile image
We have lived in Sayner year-round since 2019. Before that, we would spend summers at Craig's family cabin on Razorback Lake. We bought a house through the woods, and now our cabin is a popular vacation spot for family, friends, and VRBO guests. We live far enough away for privacy, but not too far if anything is needed during your stay. Craig works remotely as a coder, and Madeline is a school social worker. We love hosting to share our beautiful Northwoods cabin for others to enjoy, appreciate and GET AWAY!!

Why they chose this property

Craig's parents bought the land 50 years ago after camping on Razorback Lake for several years. They built the cabin as a retreat for family and friends.

What makes this property unique

We have the "old school" cabin feel with updated amenities. We also have a full kitchen for all your culinary adventures.
