About this property
Close to trails, COZY Cabin, close to the water, fireplace, Fall colors
Open Floor Plan - Sleeps Up To 9 - 2700 acre lake! Enjoy a lot of recreation, fall colors, snowmobiling, ATV, fishing, cross country skiing, mountain biking, ice fishing, and much more.
Come and relax and have some fun in our custom-built, beautiful log-accented cabin on the shores of Nelson Lake in Hayward, Wisconsin. Just 8 minutes from town, this retreat has everything you need to feed your senses! Gorgeous log and knotty pine interior, large and spacious rooms to sleep one - ten people, grand open concept with a magnificent vault! The kitchen is stocked with everything you need in dinnerware, glasses, coffee cups, utensils, bakeware, serving dishes, and so much more.
Come and sleep in one of our many log beds from twins to a King bed in the master bedroom! Brand new linens, pillows and comforters as well as all new bath towels are there for you to use! Why should you have to do anything when you're on vacation, but simply show up and begin having fun!
We have games, cards, puzzles, books, coloring books, and magazines here to help make your time here even more enjoyable. We have a DVD player and a library of movies to choose from. Free WIFI, Apple TV, smart tv with Netflix and many other channels and programs too. Want to have some time to bake?? This is a great getaway for that as the kitchen is huge and allows for many people to be in there at one time. The dining room table opens up to five feet by five feet and holds tons of food and/or treats! We've seen it happen so many times! It's a great gathering place for friends and family to come!
The snowmobiling and 4-wheeling trails are literally RIGHT OUT THE FRONT DOOR! You can head in numerous directions and play in the thousands of acres of forest and trail systems for days on end. All with great stopping points for food, drink, conversation and more! Do you like to fish?? Nelson Lake boasts 2716 acres, right here in Sawyer County. It's a wonderful fishing lake any time of the year. "Outstanding Bluegill and Bass action. Weeds, bogs, cribs and river channels offer countless angling opportunities including Crappie and Northern Pike," according to The DNR will tell you that Panfish and Largemouth Bass are common"

About the host
Hosted by Kevin Rixmann
K&K S Lakeside Lodge is a family owned business that strives to make your vacation the best. We have been hosting guests since 2017 and advancing our properties to better serve our guests. We take feedback seriously and annually make changes to our properties.
Why they chose this property
This property just feels like home, you will love the warmth when you first walk-thru the stone-columned entrance. HUGE vaults shine above you with knotty pine and large clean windows facing the lake welcome in all of the sunshine that mother nature has offered up! The home is decorated with log and wildlife accents everywhere. No detail is missed here. Everything you need in the kitchen is there for your use. And if you are missing some basic toiletries, you will find them on-site as well. If you want to come to just relax and stay indoors - you will have plenty to do with the new smart, 75-inch big-screen TV, a movie library, Wi-Fi, puzzles, books, and games all stocked for you.
If your are more inclined to be active outdoors, there is a clear view to the lake and a place to dock your boat, should you choose to bring one. Summertime activities right outside your door include, swimming at the beach just a short 2 minute walk from the front door, fishing (fish house again located a short 2 minute walk from the cabin), trails right out the door for four-wheeling, snowmobiling and the like, jet skiing, tubing, or just sitting by the firepit for drinks and conversation. You can even rent a pontoon boat right here! Oh, ther're kayaks on site for you to use too!
We have a gas grill ready with all the tools to cook up some good food right out on the large 28x12 maintenance free deck. A nice picnic table is there for your use or tons of room for you to rest on the cabin chairs and cushions supplied for you.
We've tried to think of everything ... because we know how valuable vacation time is for you, your family and your friends. We want to welcome you to our home and hope you make some amazing memories while you are here! Let us know if we can do anything for you!

What makes this property unique
The views from the front of the cabin are amazing! The sunrises and sunsets will take your breath away ... if you can get up early or stay up late enough:-) You can literally walk to a park which is shared by the Nelson Lake Lodge Association, to which our home is a part. You can walk to a restaurant only 5 minutes away at the Nelson Lake Landing or to Park Island Resort. The Landing even has a gas pump should you need some gas for your watercraft. For a change of scenery off the lake, you can head 8 minutes into town and shop on the main street and venture into a number of quaint restaurants, jewelry stores, clothing stores and more. You MUST go get some of the best ice cream in all of the upper Midwest! It's called West's Hayward Dairy located on west 2nd street right in Hayward:-) Hayward also hosts numerous events at the Scheer Lumberjack Shows and Village. You can see anything from log rolling, speed sawing, pole climbing, ax throwing and more in the event arena or wander right into the village and all the quaint stores and gift shops. And if you enjoy bright lights and casinos ... head on over to the Seven Winds Casino where you can play the slots, poker, craps, roulette and more. You'll find live music, good food at the buffet and restaurant, and lots of laughter.... of course COVID 19 rules are in place so call and see what is or is not happening at the time of your stay.
