We loved the cabin - well-equipped and comfortabe with beautiful views! We especially appreciated the dock set-up; it accommodated our 20' pontoon with ease. It was a great place to relax after fishing.

Amazing place. Super clean and updated. Location is awesome. The owners happened to be in the place just up the hill when we arrived. They introduced themselves and made sure we felt at home. The neighbor and his dogs made sure to say hi. Very welcoming group. Our 2 kids loved their space with the bunk beds. The living room is spacious and comfy. Kitchen outfitted with everything we needed and more. The deck was perfect for morning coffees and evening cocktails. We don't fish hard, but found a good mix of panfish for our freezer. Handful of walleye, pike and bass, also. The lake is beautiful. Hoping to return.

Fabulous week up north

We've stayed in this cabin before and it is always well kept. Enjoyed a week of incredible weather, very good fishing, a nice campfire, and peace. Not to mention good food and a cocktail or two. Highly recommend this place for a couple or a small family.

Beautiful and comfortable cottage on a beautiful and relaxing property. Enjoyed fishing off the pier, kayaking (sit on top kayaks), and slept wonderfully. Even able to capture some photos of the northern lights. Would gladly return in the future.

We enjoyed our stay at the property. We put our boat in at the landing a couple miles away and were able to leave our boat tied up right outside the cabin. It was quiet and neighbors were friendly. The cabin is very well maintained along with the property. We hope to be back next year.

great place

We enjoyed our vacation. The cabin was super close to the lake and the docks, which was nice so the kids could fish whenever they felt like it right from shore. The Internet reception was surprisingly better than what we expected, we had no problem streaming movies at night. Would definitely stay here again!

All the adjectives…Beautiful, Peaceful, Amazing!

Honestly, this is the best cabin we’ve ever stayed in. Everything was updated and beautiful. The setting was serene, quiet, and had a wonderful lake view. Very attentive & friendly host! We did not lack for anything, and we were very lucky, to view the northern lights right outside of our door, shining over the lake! 💕

Great Cabin for your stay

This was a perfect spot for our long weekend getaway. Very clean comfortable cabin with everything that we needed. Great location on the lake. Thanks for having bumpers on your dock and poles to tie up our boat. Most places do not consider that. The fishing was really good and a nice fire pit to come back to after fishing all day to enjoy the evening. We would love to come back. We had a great time there.

Great lake cabin

Cabin was very comfortable and clean. Great view of the lake, with access to the water from beach or pier. We had a nice time canoeing on the lake and doing some casual fishing from the pier. The location is an easy drive to Eagle River and Land o Lakes for groceries, restaurants, etc. Also accessible to Bond Falls (UP MI), Blackjack Springs (Phelps), and Porcupine Mountains for hiking. Overall a great stay. Cabin is

Beautiful serene getaway

The cottage was so cozy and the perfect place for the last leg of our honeymoon. The fall colors on the lake were absolutely gorgeous! Everything was very clean and the living area and kitchen were spacious. Will be back!
