Fantastic place!

This was perfect for our 3 generation family! The house is beautifully refreshed with comfortable beds, very nice bathrooms and decor. The setting is perfect on a lake and the amount of boats and toys are amazing! We played outside all day when the weather was good and stayed just as busy indoors in the game room and screen porch. They have thought of everything you could need. Very responsive to questions. Would love to come again!

Great place!

We loved the property. The house is spacious and beautiful. The game room provided many hours of fun! We were a little surprised at the cleaning "rules" and that we had to make our own beds. That would be the only negative thing we had to say about this property.

Great Spot In Winter, WI

We had a great time on our long weekend to Winter, WI. This house is in a nice, mostly quiet area on the lake. The house itself is nicely redone and very large with lots of amenities. The garage was a great spot to hang out and watch the game while playing games. The house has plenty of space for watching movies or playing games. Large, clean bedrooms as well. Would definitely stay again.

Plenty of room for all of us. Very clean. We did have to shovel and snow blow to make the driveway wider since we had trucks and trailers for the snowmobiles, otherwise a great stay.

Beautiful waterfront property

We really enjoyed our stay. They had everything you could possibly need, for any type of weather. We spent a lot of time out canoeing, paddle boarding, or just reading in the sunroom. We all agree this was the perfect up north getaway. Thank you again!

A Comfy Winter Stay

House was nicely kept and served us well as we stayed for the Birkie in nearby Hayward. We even skied out in the lake one day. Beds were very comfortable and rooms all have blackout curtains, so we all slept well! Well-equipped kitchen. Nice place!

Family fun

We had such a wonderful stay. Even though it rained on and off one of the days, there was something for everyone in the garage including pool, darts, shuffleboard and arcade games. The screened in porch was lovely with a beautiful view of the lake. The kids loved to fish off the pier, jump on the float and float on the paddle boat. The place was spacious enough for three families with kids ranging from 6-13. We also loved the swing surrounding the campfire pit. Thanks for all the memories!

Family Vacation

It was a very relaxing experience. Having access to a pontoon is an extra bonus. The 3-season porch was very nice. The garage had a lot of fun games. The temperature difference from upstairs to downstairs was quite substantial - varying 8-10 degrees. Difficult to regulate temperature for both families when sleeping on different levels. Overall great time, would rent again!

Perfect Family Getaway

The property was beautiful & spacious. I love that the location was private & not overcrowded. The kids could be out on the lake with the paddle boards & not have to worry about a ton of boat traffic. The garage was amazing- it has a pool table, darts, foosball, & air hockey! Perfect for a rain day & when everyone has had too much sun ;) Would definitely stay again!!

Snowmobile trip 2023

No access to snowmobile trails but that didn't bother us. The property was excellent! Clean and ready to move in for a short stay. Very nice game room in the heated garage. TV's in every room. Easy access to washer & dryer. Games available inside house. Pictures on the wall made it easy to return the property to the condition it was when we arrived. Thanks for sharing your home with us!!

Young family oasis

This was a wonderful place for our family (Highchair/ pack n play). Laundry on site is convenient. Beach area was clean and good amount without weeds. Water is clear/ dark amber color. Shallow enough for my 4 yr old to be head above water off the end of the pier. Coarse/Rough sand. S barber is a small lake but peaceful. 6-8 ft deep max, so we had to be very careful tubing, avoiding the edges. Barber lake, where the boat launch is and connected by a small channel, was bigger and much deeper. The hosts were quick, polite, and attentive. My only (mild) criticism is I prefer when linens are professionally laundered, not by renters for the next guest. The living room carpet had quite a bit of dog hair on it so I had to vacuum right after we arrived. Regardless, we would absolutely stay again! The davis' have made this a place with many conveniences for their guests to relax and enjoy the lake. Thank you!

Best Family Getaway! We're coming back!

Where to start?! First, let me start with the fact my family consists of 8 adults and little additions over the years, now up to 5 total. We have been doing family cabin rentals every summer for over 8 years and have yet to find one that checks all our boxes and doesn't deceive their ad on VRBO - UNTIL NOW!!! I cannot express enough how amazing this cabin was! So much so we're coming back next year!! First repeat stay ever! The owners, Pete & Chris, were the most hospital, accommodating, generous, and their home was incredible. 5 stars on all fronts. It was clean, comfy, spacious, plenty of extra toys [soooo many extra toys, the kids were never bored!]. Plenty of rooms for everyone to sleep comfortably. The screened in porch was a bonus we didnt even realize we loved! And the game room was used everyday! The beach was absolutely perfect, and to our surprise a trampoline and even the pontoon! The lake was very quiet and not super busy but just perfect for swimming, boating, and of course fishing. Best part is the pictures were not deceiving at all, like weve had in the past. They actually dont even do it justice. We highly recommend!!! We cannot wait to come back next year! Thank you Pete and Chris, we truly love your home and appreciate the memories we had with our family there.

Amazing Fall Trip

My wife and I had to make some last minute changes to our fall trip, this place was available, so we gave it a try. We are so glad that we did. Christine was so great to work with, if we needed something she was quick to respond. The place was very nice and you can tell that they are in the middle of making a lot of upgrades. Their sectional couch was so comfortable, and the king size bed in the master was even better. Made for a great few days of relaxing since it was so could while we were there. We did manage to have a couple of fires at the fire pit and took the canoe for a trip around the lake. The house was very well stocked with everything we needed. Was even able to get the smart tv hooked into my hotspot so we could watch some movies. The area was very nice too, we took a hike up at Morgan Falls and the fall colors were awesome! Only down fall to this place, and the owners have no control over this and I am sure it annoys them too. The house is backwards, it would be nice if the big picture window in the living room over looked the lake!!. But when they built the place they put the bathroom and guest bedrooms on the lake side. But after all said and done, we loved this place and would love to come back in a couple years and see all the updates that are coming!

About the host

Hosted by Chris Davies

Host profile image
We wanted to purchase a lake home in Sawyer county. We love all that it has to offer from fishing, ATV, snowmobiling etc. We want to have our family and friends enjoy this new purchase as much as we are going to.

Why they chose this property

We plan on retiring to Wisconsin for the summer months in about 10 years but in the mean time we would like to take advantage of a vacation home for the next few years.

What makes this property unique

We liked this home for its easy access to the water, but we also enjoy remodeling, so get ready for new updates and added features to come. We are very excited to get started.
