Tim was very welcoming and answered all of our questions quickly. The house is very nice and has a lot of different activities to keep you entertained. We would definitely stay here again.
We had a great stay at this cabin. It was clean, and there was plenty of room to spread out. We loved the screened porch and spaces to gather. The owner was great to work with.
We’ve been searching for the perfect VRBO for our family vacation for about 8 years. Finally found it! Great location-only a 2 hr. drive for us, great lake with a fab sandy beach, plenty of room (the screen porch was our favorite), enough bedrooms, well-equipped kitchen, an extra fridge! and good Wi-Fi as sometimes my kids need to WFH. Host was quick to respond to our questions. We hope we can return next year!
Had a great time! The house had plenty of activities for the whole family to enjoy! Tim was a great host, answered all of our questions quickly! We would definitely stay again!
There was plenty of space in the updated home for all of us to spread out. The location on the lake is fantastic, with a nice sandy beach, and it is within walking distance of downtown. It's a wonderful place to make family memories.
We've stayed at this property before. The owner has done an excellent job of updating many things including; the kitchen and basement spaces, the pontoon boat has all new cushions and the beach firepit. Overall it's such a nice place to stay and that shore of Shell Lake is our favorite. We'll be back!
We have a blended family with a few kids, and this space was so perfect. So easy to spread out or be together. The location couldn't be better!!
The house is well stocked, and great for kids with booster seats and some beach toys, etc.
We can't wait to stay again!
Kelly, I apologize for the issues with the Wifi. You'll be happy to know that I've upgraded the router - installing a new Google mesh system that provides exceptional coverage and reliability.
Although the weather didn’t cooperate with us during our stay, we sure enjoyed visiting and playing games with family inside the newly remodeled kitchen/dininig/living room. Looking forward to getting back again very soon! Thanks Tim!
The 10 of us enjoyed our stay immensely!!! There was enough space for all of us without feeling crampedl, well laid out main kitchen, with a 2nd kitchen to put soft drinks and stuff. Also the was easy access to the beach and firepit. The only suggestion would be to add hand rails to the downstairs so older adults feel safer going downstairs.
Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2025

Melinda,
Glad you had a great week. Agree with your suggestion regarding hand rails to the basement. Will get that on to-do list for the off season. Thanks.

Tim and his family are fantastic hosts from beginning to end. The cabin location couldn't be better; so close to the water that you can hear both the waves lapping onto the sand and the loons who frequented near the dock. The home very comfortably housed my large family gathering so that everyone had their own space, yet consisted of a couple large common areas both in and outside the cabin for all to enjoy everyone's company. If available, look no further and reserve this wonderful lake cabin.
House was large enough for my family and my brother’s family to gather together but have separate areas to sleep/unwind. The beach by the house was perfect for young kids, the older kids loved the game room in the basement, fishing was great and it was walking distance to the public beach and downtown Shell Lake. The furniture was a little worn and outdated, but was clean and functional.
Were overjoyed at remodeling done since last year. Great job with all improvements. Would like to see handicapeped walkin shower on main floor with better hand bars.
We had a great family vacation. Enough space for everyone.Comfortable beds.Good wifi. Great kitchens. Central location.Great water view.Wonderful new screened in porch. Weather didn't cooperate so our pontoon time was limited. Tim was a great host. He responded promptly with the few questions we had. We even are planning on returning for another family vacation.
We had a wonderful family trip to Shell Lake! The lake home was perfect, with a great sandy beach that was ideal for our young kids to swim and play safely. The water was crystal clear, and the fishing was a blast, providing fun for the whole family. The location was fantastic—we could easily walk to the playground, coffee shop/ice cream shop, restaurants, and convenience store whenever we needed anything. A perfect spot for a relaxing and memorable family getaway!
House on Shell Lake near town with sandy bottom beach and walk out swimming. House is nice, lots of beds. Could use an upgrade of couches. Pontoon boat as an add-on to our rental was a big part of the fun!
This property is conveniently located on a beautiful sandy beach within easy walking distance of the city of Shell Lake. There was plenty of room for the entire family, and we all had a wonderful time.
Another fantastic week at this beautiful property on gorgeous Shell lake! The owner is fantastic, extremely accommodating and responds promptly to any questions I had!
