Beautiful spacious house. The main floor living area felt bigger than the photos. It also has a nice flat area leading out to the water. There is a super Nintendo classic with many games there which was a bit with my kids on the rainy day. 30 minutes from the cuyuna trails, but note that you won't get access to the garage to store bikes

It’s great to hear the spacious living area and easy access to the water stood out, and that the Super Nintendo gave the kids something fun to do on the rainy day. Thank you as well for mentioning the garage access for future Cuyuna trail guests. We truly appreciate the 10/10 review and hope to have you back! --- Evan & Annie

Excellent get-away!! Beautiful surroundings, quiet lake, and friendly township!!! Downfall.. everything closes at 10pm. Don't bring your own boat, it's a private lake so no public launches. Beds were comfortable, even the doggy bed!!

Fantastic stay at this Butterfield Lake cabin!We had a wonderful family vacation here with our group of 11, including three little ones under three, and the cabin handled us all with ease. It was incredibly spacious with easy access down to the lake — perfect for fishing and swimming from the pontoon and the dock. It includes paddle boards and kayaks which were a big hit! Everything inside was brand new, and it showed; the beds were extremely comfortable, and the cleanliness was absolutely pristine from top to bottom.The kitchen was well stocked with plenty of utensils and cookware, which made cooking for a big group simple. They have thought of literally anything you need. In the evenings we played lots of card games and gathered around the big fire pit for s’mores and a cozy campfire. The deck has a beautiful view of the dock, and the views overall were amazing. It’s also only nine minutes to the town of Emily, which was handy for grabbing anything we needed.The hosts were friendly and available. I would rate this property as excellent!

Girls weekend and had lots of fun. House was large enough for all of us to move around. Lots of amenities including multiple paddle boards, paddle boats, and kayaks. Abundance of dishes, silverware, towels, blankets, and pillows. They had everything we needed and more. Very nice gas grill on deck. Lots of indoor and outdoor games and activities. We will definitely be coming back. Hosts were quick to respond to any questions.
