Fun family getaway!

The cabin met our needs perfectly for a family weekend getaway with grandma and grandpa! The kitchen is fully stocked-more than any other that I’ve been to, 2 levels of spaces and bedrooms is great for families, and the community amenities are a major bonus-fishing, swing set for the kids, and a restaurant! The beach area shown in the photos is just gravel now so bring water shoes! Overall a great place that we would come back to if the opportunity arose!

This is our second time staying, and we love the location and access to the trail system as well as the quiet backyard. Not sure what extra $60 was for for additional cleaning after exit, though.

About the host

Hosted by Jean Boatman

Host profile image
Jean Boatman, I am a vacation home owner along with my husband Wayne. My husband drives truck and I am an interior decorator/painter. We built and designied this cabin with comfort and up north decor in mind.

Why they chose this property

This home is for our enjoyment now and later when we retire. We had been managing a campground in this resort and love the area. There are so many great places to dine out & shop. We enjoy The Birchwood Cafe and Just Right On Main for dining and shopping. We decided to build when the new lots became available and were first to get the best veiw of the lake.

What makes this property unique

We enjoy the people who come into this area. There is fishing, Atv trails and many nice shopping and entertaining things to do in the area. There is snowmobile trails in the winter and ice fishing or just relaxing in this comfy cabin. I also designed the basement to be either a family game area or it can be transformed into a space for scrapbooking and other crafts for up to 8 people.
