This property is perfect for a larger family gathering. Plenty of space and outdoor areas and although it is right on a road the back of the property feels as if you are tucked away into the woods. We had a great time and the host is close if anything is needed.

Nice location

We enjoyed sitting around the fire and viewing the beautiful woods that this property sat on. Our grandkids loved all the space to run around and explore. We could watch the deer meander through the woods while we drink our coffee through the kitchen windows. Very secluded and peaceful. The house was adequate for our stay.

Thanks! Sounds you had a great time. The house will shortly be undergoing a few major and minor upgrades. Most guests leave 5 start reviews but I'm wondering what was missing for the 5th star in your recurrence so I could possibly address it in the upcoming improvements?!

Great location, amble space for dog

We stayed for a family weekend with our adult son. Loved the proximity to hiking trails and restaurants & brewery in Washburn. The place isn't fancy, but was perfect for us. We enjoyed the sauna and campfires outside.

Clean, quiet and secluded. One bedroom is up a ladder, only one bathroom. Nicely decorated with beautiful woodwork. Clothes dryer was not working at the moment so we had to hang some clothes.

Perfection in the northwoods

This spot fit our needs perfectly. A great location, close to orchards and the Great Lake, we spent a wonderful weekend enjoying all the property has to offer. With ample space for sleeping and lounging indoors, our favorites were the sauna with amazing windows for wilderness views, stargazing at night from the large fire pit in the woods, and the great host who made himself available for anything we needed. We will be back.

Kayaking for her birthday

Our group of 6 stayed her for 2 nights. We went kayaking on Lake Superior. Good location for that, quiet, peaceful, sleeps several, close to town. The negatives: the place has cob webs all over, fur on the ceiling fans, sticky stuff on cupboards. Nobal was great to work with, with a good Top to bottom cleaning It would be great.

Well furnished

Host is top notch! Very accommodating, communicated well. House, while all connected 2 bedrooms kinda had their own suite which our 3 30 something children used while we had the bedroom at the front part of the house. Wood stove for additional heat was nice. We have stayed at many wonderful vacation homes over the years but this one was the most furnished home we have ever stayed at. Anything you need they gave. Also, a lot of organic food, cleaning supplies, etc. I felt like I was at my house.

Family time

Plenty of room to defuse with family after long day at beach, on water, touring and shopping in Bayfield/Apostle Islands. Appreciated new bedding! Loved the Sauna! Owner readily answered e-mailed questions regarding problems with internet d/t Spectrum service issues. Appreciated presence of Smoke detectors. Would add to rental description. Also appreciated charcoal grill. Easy check-in and check-out. Mild carpet odor. Expected when allows clients with dogs.

major disappointment

The house just had no appeal. There was a bad smell when you walked in that stayed throughout the house. The layout was chopped up, so that there was no comfortable place for the six of us to gather. We ended up using kitchen chairs to watch tv and talk. The single bathroom really made things hard. Thank goodness it was a congenial group. We all felt it was way overpriced for what it offered. No one was interested in sitting outside because of the bugs. There was one tiny tray of ice cubes in the freezer. Linens had seen better days. Beds creaked, window air conditioners were noisy and ineffective. It seemed no attempt had been made to make things comfortable or attractive. A great big disappointment. We'll probably laugh about it in the future, but for all these reasons, it was not fun to stay there.

Amazing oasis

Had a great time with the family for a couple of days. My teenage daughter even complimented the house’s “viby aesthetic.” We greatly appreciated the sauna after cold swims in Lake Superior. The property manager was amazing and helpful. Would definitely recommend.

John’s place was perfect for our stay. It’s on a super quiet road but still relatively close to town. He was very communicative and generous. The rooms were comfortable and the kitchen was well-equipped. There’s a beautiful setup on the back deck overlooking the woods.

Beautiful location

Quiet location, close to town. Loved the decor/ art. Just a cool little house! We spent most of our time by the fire on the back patio area. Was the perfect place to stay with a baby- usually we camp but having a one month old with us we wanted the comfort of a home.
