About this property

Peaceful Vintage 1920's Lakefront Red Log Cabin

Coming down Sunset View Lane, the sign at the end of our driveway, lets you know you've arrived at Camp David! A peaceful and cozy 100 year old red log cabin. Rumor has it, this former resort cabin, was used by gangsters from Chicago! The signatures in the logs will have you standing and reading who visited this cabin over the years and when they visited! We've seen signatures from 1919! This charming red cabin was built from logs floating in the lake. Featuring 100 feet of lake front & fabulous sandy bottom for swimming. The cabin sits 40 feet from the water and is 600 square feet. Complete with modern appliances, refrigerator, gas stove and microwave. Adjoining the kitchen is the living room with a smart TV, cable and wifi is available. There is a rustic bath with shower, four season porch with two full beds. Forced air heat & window A/C. We have two exterior only security cameras. This is on at all times for security only. Porch features original logs and vaulted ceiling. A special west facing view of incredible sunsets, will not be forgotten. Spot for great campfires! A rare find, this is our personal cabin which we like to share with others.

About the host

Hosted by Wanda Hart

Host profile image
David and Wanda Hart welcome you to Camp David. Our family cabin has been the memory making machine for our family! With 4 adult children, their spouses and grandchildren, we have loved every minute spent at the cabin. We love to travel and would like to share our cabin with you. It's both quaint, charming and not like any other.

Why they chose this property

Like us - when you drive down our lane and see this red cabin for the first time, it is love at first sight. It was for us when we bought it in 1985. Up for a weekend of looking at lakeshore lots, we came across this cabin when looking at Grandma's old cabin down the road. Having grown up coming to this area since the 60's, seeing the charm of this cabin, it became a part of our memory making like grandma's before us.

What makes this property unique

The charm of the red log cabin caught our attention first - but then when we walked to the lake and saw the swimming area, we knew it was perfect. You can see to the sandy bottom of the lake for a long ways out. Fabulous swimming, boating and lake fun are the greatest memories along with the famous sunsets!
