About this property
Sunset on the Bay 3-bedroom vacation rental on Nelson Lake w/ Private Dock!
Sunset on the Bay is a 3-bedroom vacation rental on Nelson Lake only minutes from Hayward, Wisconsin. With a beautiful westerly lake view of one of the Hayward, Wisconsin Area's most popular lakes, this comfortable vacation home lives up to its name!
A terraced landscaping and wooded setting welcomes you upon arrival. The single-story home sits naturally at the top of a gentle hill tucked into a quiet bay overlooking Nelson Lake. The layout of the home with all its modern amenities allows plenty of opportunities to soak up this Northwood's view while staying connected with the outside world (or not). The grassy lakeside yard has a campfire ring with a natural scenic vista of a largely undeveloped shoreline. There is also a deck, screened in porch and private dock from which to take in the picturesque Northwood's lake scene, too.
Inside you'll find a comfortable 3 bedroom, 2 bath vacation home with an open living room, kitchen and dining area. The sliding patio doors in the living room frame the lake view as well as open onto the lakeside deck. There is a wood burning stove to keep you cozy as well as Satellite TV, DVD player and DSL Internet to keep you connected.
The kitchen with all the essentials has an electric stove, oven, full size refrigerator/freezer, drip coffeemaker, toaster and microwave. There is a dining room table and kitchen island with stools offering plenty of counter space for meal preparation and enjoyment.
There is a carpeted bedroom off the living room with a log framed full bed. A second bedroom also has a full-sized bed while the third bedroom enjoys a beautiful view of the lake with a queen-sized bed and full bath. All three of the bedrooms have ceiling fans and there is a sofa sleeper futon in the living room.
Nelson Lake is 2,500 acres in size with a maximum depth of 33 feet, 31 miles of shoreline and 16 islands. Long a favorite of Hayward, Wisconsin fishermen, Nelson Lake has 4 public landings and is a destination for year-round water enthusiasts looking to fish, kayak, canoe or pontoon a beautiful Northern Wisconsin lake.
*We have been working with the Department of Health and have new cleaning standards and procedures for all our Beds. On each bed we will provide sheets, pillow and pillowcase and blankets. You will need to bring your own towels and any soaps.
** Pontoons, kayaks, or paddleboards can be rented as an add on to your stay**
