About this property

The fishing is great! Trails are close by. Enjoy summer in the Northwoods!

Located in the heart of one of the largest trail systems in the US. Five miles from the town of Cable. Close to 3 Birkie trailheads: OO, Boedecker and Birkie Ridge. This cabin is located on a snowmobile/ATV route. Ski and bike tuning facilities provided in the sports room off the screened in porch. Enjoy the view of Pacwawong Springs (from the cabin or dock)- a waterfowl migration area with a pair of Trumpeter Swans here most of the year. The screened in porch is a great place to eat or read and not deal with bugs. There is a gas firepit and a large deck.

This cabin was PERFECT! Super clean, quiet, really nice setup and relaxing- exactly what we needed. We enjoyed sitting outside and watching the lake activity and night sky. Location was close to town, but far enough away to feel secluded. Kitchen had absolutely everything we were needing and nicely organized. If TV is what you need, plan on bringing a tablet or laptop, OR just enjoy the company and outdoors. :)

Comfy and Charming

We loved this little cabin--it was one of the most comfortable places we've rented. The place was immaculately clean and had everything we needed. The property is a very quiet area. It was raining like crazy when we were there so we didn't take a lot of deck time, but the lakeside was beautiful. I would rent here again.

Time to unwind

Cabin had everything we needed to compliment our stay. Owners were very quick to respond with answers to our questions. If you want to unwind and relax, this is for you. Cable is close by and well worth a visit.
There were 5 swans in the lake, beautiful to watch.

Short getaway

My partner and I stayed there for 3 nights in the middle of April. The cabin was very cozy, and the location was in the middle of a little bit of everything. Our favorite things were the screened in porch and the convince of the canoe.

About the host

Hosted by Le Sedlacek and Terry Dahmen

Host profile image
We retired from our respective careers: Le as a nurse practitioner in neurology and Terry from municipal park and grounds maintenance. We decided to move farther north in Wisconsin to start a vacation rental business. We both love hosting. The ample opportunity for multiple outdoor summer and winter sports keeps us loving the area.

Why they chose this property

The log cabin has served as the perfect area for respite from daily life or the place to have easy access to multiple trail heads. Our guests have loved the ability to disconnect.

What makes this property unique

Peaceful-no motor boats on the lake. Gigantic white and red pine trees. Town is just 5 miles away if you need groceries or other basics.
