About this property

Relax in our quiet, lakefront cabin

Nestled on cozy Shay Lake in northern Wisconsin, Lone Cedar Cabin is perfect for a week on the lake or a weekend hitting the trails! Our peaceful 1300 square foot cabin sits on 50 feet of lakefront property. With 3 bedrooms and a spacious living area, there is plenty of room for groups up to 12. (Note the additional per person fee for groups over 8.)

Shay Lake is yours for fishing, swimming, or boating. Rent our 22 foot pontoon boat to make your stay more fun!** Relax at the cabin or check out the surrounding areas of Lakewood, Suring, and Crivitz. In the summer, try whitewater rafting, golfing, biking, gift shops, wineries, casinos, or horseback riding. For a winter getaway, add ice fishing, cross country skiing, and snowmobiling to the list! Information on nearby attractions and activities are available in the cabin or use the Wi-Fi to plan your own adventure.

Oconto County has 450+ miles of ATV trails and many snowmobile trails. Trail maps for both are available in the cabin. We have plenty of parking for your trailers and vehicles, plus you can connect to the trails directly from the cabin. In the summer, just a quick ride out of the mile long driveway will bring you to the trails where you can travel in any direction, seeking out your favorite destination, bar, casino, or restaurant. If traveling by sled, a ride across the lake will get you to the snowmobile trails or head out the driveway where you can take a quick ditch ride and hook directly up to the groomed trails.

**Pontoon rental available:
$300 for a 2 night stay
($100 for each additional night)
$700 for a 7 night stay
(We provide 11 adult life vests and a throwable flotation device)

Let us know if you want to rent the pontoon as well. We will add it to your booking and send you a new quote.

We loved our first family vacation. The cabin was super clean and spacious. With a baby next time would bring a gate for the steps from kitchen to living area. Pontoon rental totally worth it. It was relaxing, quiet and safe. Would recommend and will rent again.

Lovely lake getaway

The cabin was lovely! Everyone slept comfortably in the large rooms. Four young kids took over one of the bunk rooms and loved hanging out and having a “sleepover” Beautiful lake nice and quiet. The cabin was a perfect retreat to hang out and relax! Lake was great for swimming! We all had a ball!

Very good property, and cabin has a lot of great amenities. We did have a great time, one thing that was a little bothersome was the owners stayed 2 houses down and did show up multiple times. Other than that everything else was great.

Great cabin by the lake.

We have rented this cabin multiple times and have always enjoyed our stay. The cabin is clean and has a great location. The lake is quiet and the pontoon boat is great for spending time out on the lake.

Up North getaway

Great cabin on Shay Lake. The cabin is spacious and clean. The lake is beautiful and the fishing was great. We also rented the boat which was fun. This is the 2nd time we rented the cabin this year, we had to come back after our great experience in early summer.

Wonderful and Relaxing

Peaceful stay. Boat rental was worth it. Loved it, would stay there again. Cabin had everything we needed. And when we did have questions, hosts responded quickly. Not as secluded as I thought it was going to be but it we were one of 3 boats on the lake everyday so that was awesome.

Lake perfection

A wonderful house for family get away. The steps from the pier to the lake were terrific for the kids to easily get in the water. The house was so clean and the games provided were so fun. The kayaks and row boat were a great bonus. Would definitely rent again! Thanks for a great vacation!!

Amazing lake cottage

Rented the cabin for a family vacation. Property is so remote and beautiful as is the cottage. Big, roomy, very well kept up by the owners. We had an amazing time hiking the wooded trails, kayaking, fishing, swimming, and enjoying campfires at night. It was the perfect relaxing vacation needed! Hope to visit here again in the future.

Quiet and Remote

Some difficulty with GPS finding the address. You turn on a grandma’s lane and take a drive through the woods. It was absolutely gorgeous but at first I was panicking that we were not on the correct road. All is well, just keep driving. Great hosts, lovely cabin. Small lake that we really enjoyed kayaking on daily. We also brought inflatable tubes and the kids had fun playing on those. It’s the most clear lake water we’ve ever seen.

Very Pleasant

This trip was a "gift of time" for our niece/nephews and it was all of that. We had the best time. The house had everything we could have possibility needed from the kitchen to towels to outside. We would definitely stay again. The lake was also peaceful.

Lovely lake retreat

Ran up north to see if we could catch a glimpse of the northern lights. No luck but our family had a blast. Fishing on the lake, sitting by the firepit, watching the sunset and playing card games. So much fun and plenty of space. The cabin is completely stocked. Lovely!

Wonderful week on Shay Lake

We had the most amazing time staying at the Nelson's cabin! This was our 2nd time and it was just as great as the 1st. We had 6 adults and 6 kids ages 7 and under. They had everything we needed for a good time. We also rented the pontoon which is a must! So much swimming, fishing and just riding around the lake. The loons were an added bonus. They are so fun to watch. We can't say enough about this place. The hosts are incredibly easy to work with! So helpful and quick to respond. Thank you again for everything! We made the best memories as an extended family.

Relaxing

We had a wonderful time at the Lone Cedar Cabin. Weather was great, the water very clear....Cabin was very well maintained and clean. There is plenty of space to sleep, perfect for large families. There is one bathroom, but it was more than enough. We enjoyed kayaking, swimming and walking around the woods. The one thing that we didn't like was AC. I worked but not always so it was uncomfortable at times. I would recommend this place to everybody who wants to relax and rest.

Very peaceful retreat

We had a very nice time at this peaceful cabin. We loved the small lake that only had a few other boaters/fishermen. We enjoyed the fire pit every night right by the water. Everyone caught a fish when we took the pontoon out on the lake. This was one of the most well stocked houses we've rented, with plenty of towels and games. We would bring our own DVDs for rain days next time since we don't have a Hulu or Netflix account. The only drawback is that the yard is rather small, which is fine for most, but our 3 little boys needed a little more room to run. Overall we had a great stay!
