Relaxing
We really enjoyed our stay! The cabin was comfortable and had everything we needed for a long weekend escape. It was a convenient place to use as a home base while going to antique stores and leaf peeping in the surrounding areas. Chuck and Susie were incredibly thoughtful without being intrusive. Thank you for your hospitality!

Relaxing Weekend
Fall colors were beautiful as we sat on the dock and fished between rain showers. Rain didn’t ruin our quick family getaway as there was plenty to do inside. Cabin is roomy and has a beautiful view. We played games as a family and enjoyed just being together. It is an older home and smelled slightly musty/damp but it was clean. The only downfall for our creature comfort is the shower was very small and the bath tub was difficult to get in and out of. Overall it was a good place to stay.

About the host

Hosted by Susan Carr

Host profile image
We have been sharing the lake home we were blessed with, as we do not have the time to enjoy it right now! We have had many of the same families come back year after year for the past decade! We enjoy telling about you about the local attractions, and having you relax and have the best vacation possible! Come stay and play....at our Northwoods Retreat!

Why they chose this property

The lake home you can vacation at has a nice level lot, with a view of the lake from every window! The sunsets are incredible, and it is a very quiet and peaceful lake...come and enjoy this beautiful property!

What makes this property unique

There is a 'no-wake law' in effect from 6 PM until 10 AM, making this the perfect lake for people who like a lot of action during the day, yet who like to fish and enjoy the quiet too!
