We were very comfortable in the house and enjoyed our stay! The host was very responsive and the home had everything we needed! We really enjoyed the super warm fireplace and large TV.
Disappointed with game room. Other then that, our group had a very good stay. The view is to die for. The best perk of our stay. The water was cold but three of us did a cold water plunge. Have to say it wasn't bad. Wish the weather was a bit nicer because outside is where it is at for this stay.
Great views, clean home, great communication with the host through out the stay and they even accomodated our request for a late checkout! Amazing all throughout. Highly recommend this stay!
You cannot beat the views from this property. Sunrise and sunset from the balcony were amazing. Beds were comfortable and the house was spacious for our group. Had everything you needed to enjoy the lake life trip.
This was not what I was expecting. The pictures online look like a new home with a downstairs with a nice game room. This is an old cottage with a few updates. It was not clean. The ceiling fan covered in black dust/dirt. The vents were full of dirt. There were cobwebs & bugs. Hair on pillow cases, blankets and no zippered covers on the pillows. I was expecting a nice lakeside home. This was not. I would not stay here again.

Hi,
Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear the home didn’t meet your expectations. We do want to clarify a couple of points, as this property has been recently remodeled and is inspected prior to each guest’s arrival to ensure it is clean and ready.
The photos you shared appear to focus on areas that are quite high up—like the ceiling fan and upper window spaces—which can occasionally collect some dust or cobwebs between deep cleanings, especially in a lakeside setting. That said, we still take this seriously and will have our team take another look to make sure everything is up to our standards.
We also want to assure you that all sheets and linens are commercially laundered between every guest stay. Finding anything that suggested otherwise is certainly not typical, and we understand how that would be concerning.
We’re sorry this stay didn’t align with what you were hoping for. Feedback like yours is helpful as we continue to fine-tune both the home and how it’s presented. We do stand behind the cleanliness and condition of the property, but we’ll use your comments to improve wherever we can.
We appreciate you giving the cabin a try and wish you the best moving forward.

Fantastic place with great walleye fishing. Troll scatter raps at about 4’ I would recommend you bring a saute pan if you plan on cooking. Theirs was kind of rough. Other than that, highly recommend this place!
We loved the outdoor space and were able to spend time around the fire pit. Everything inside was comfortable and clean. The management was very responsive.
Hi Heather,
Thank you for your fantastic review! We're thrilled to hear that you had an absolutely awesome lake vacation. We hope to welcome you back for another amazing stay soon.
Best regards,

Property was very well kept. Only drawback is it needs more railings on the exterior for older people. Property management was great to deal with! Family had a wonderful time and would definitely stay again!
