Great place to enjoy lake living!

We brought our boat, the kids (adults now), and their cousins. The cabin was exactly as we hoped it would. Clean, well organized and everything works properly. We loved access to an open dock and boating and swimming each day. Also hanging out on the deck overlooking the lake was wonderful. Thank you Vince!!!

This was a great cabin for our family of 6 and dogs. We enjoyed the cabin and the location. We were very satisfied and appreciated the owner checking in with us. We also enjoyed the lake and had some luck fishing. It was so nice to get away and have time to relax and feel safe during this crazy time.

About the host

Hosted by Vince Cerniglia

Host profile image
We have owned the cabin for 21 seasons and just don't get up enough to use it every weekend. Our thought why not share all the GREAT times we have had with others. You name it, we have done it up north and each year is a bit different.

Why they chose this property

Great place for two family's or a larger group as there are separate living areas. The cabin is close to town so you can run into Hayward for anything you might need. Hayward has a great downtown not to mention shopping.

We are also close to the hospital just in case something happens.

What makes this property unique

Nelson lake is great for anything you want to do. Fishing, recreation, boating, resorts/bars and relaxing. The lake is not that busy due to the low amount of cabins on a lake this size.

We also have a pontoon available for rental. Everything you need for a family vacation.
