House is even nicer than the pictures. Lots of natural light and ample space. The bedrooms gave everyone enough personal space. The living room and kitchen were natural hangout areas.
Great place to stay with the boys for the weekend. The owners were quick to respond and answered any/all questions I had. I would highly recommend staying here.
Stay was great my family loved it. Only feedback is regarding the check in instructions, there were two different sets given and one was more up to date than the other.
My family and I had a great time. Everything was as described. We spent most of the time swimming and fishing. The lake was perfect. Check in was easy, would definitely rent again.
Perfect family get-away. Easy access to the water, spacious gathering spaces and inside games when it was a little rainy. The cabin was described accurately and the owners were super responsive. One thing to note is the cabin is a solid 30 mins from Hayward, so prepare accordingly. We are super thankful we were able to experience the perfect cabin.
Had a great stay at the Fish Haven property - a guys, family fishing trip.The property was clean and accommodations as stated. The pool table was an extra bonus and pier could handle a couple of boats and toys. The location is approximately at the midpoint of the lake, so it is very convenient when trying to fish both sides of the lake. The host, Amy, was very responsive and flexible. Caught a 41.5 in. musky as another bonus. Great place - we’ll be back!
It was a great stay, not a busy area and access to shopping is about 30-40 minutes away. There are great places to eat and fun activities in town, as well as lots of local boat rentals if you want to sit out on the lake and enjoy.

Thanks so much for your review! So good to hear you had an excellent stay!
We really enjoyed our stay. Very quiet and secluded, just what we were looking for. The fishing was pretty tough but the lake is gorgeous and the evening pontoon rides were beautiful!

Why they chose this property
We love the feel of seclusion and the beautiful sunsets on Moose Lake. This area is so rich with activity or just a place to come and relax - to get away from it all. For the active, we like to take full advantage of the outdoors year round and love to fish, boat, hike, ATV/UTV and snowmobile.
We also love the area for hiking, biking, or just nature watching.
