Nice place with a few drawbacks

The place was basically very nice, beautiful location and comfortable accommodations, but we had a few issues that were never resolved. 1. They have a gorgeous big picture window great room and kitchen, but NO screens on the doors or windows so you couldn't open anything up to get fresh air. Since it does not have air conditioning, it is very stuffy and made us all very disappointed that we couldn't enjoy the Northwoods sounds and fresh air. 2. We were sent instructions to pick up the house keys at the property manager's house, and when we got there, he said we didn't need to do that because the house was open. When we got to the house, it was open, but there were no keys and both the property manager's and the owner's phone numbers did not work. I tried sending a message via VRBO, but got no response. We couldn't lock the place up for the week and fortunately nothing was stolen. 3. There was a huge hornet nest on the garage door that we just avoided, and thankfully they left us alone. 4. There was no access to a water spigot on the outside of the house, everything was shut off. We were hoping to wash off our kayaks, but no luck. Not having screens was a big disappointment for us, but other than that, it was a beautiful place and a great location for kayaking!

I cannot wait to come back - perfect family cabin!!

Just book the property - you will not be disappointed. I have 3 girls ranging from 1-15 years old and it was an absolutely perfect cabin for our family. We also had my parents stay with us and they also loved it. The views and wildlife were incredible anytime of the day. Fun watching the fish swim around the dock. My girls swam daily in front of the dock. The canoe was enjoyed many times throughout the week, too. We were within 10-20 minutes of anything we needed/wanted by boat or land and that was perfect. Walking down to the boats and having to drive a very short distance to awesome fishing spots, the falls, food and drinks, and a nice sandy beach was so convenient. We had every single dish, pan, towel, etc that you could need for a week. I also loved that I was able to come home and unpack already clean clothes thanks to the washer and dryer there. The central air conditioning felt so nice after a hot day outdoors! We had no troubles putting our 2 boats in the water and then parking the trucks and trailers at the cabin with plenty of room for us girls to run to town when we wanted without having any parking issues. The ONLY negative thing I have to say is please update some photos on this listing because the photos on here truly do not do this location and cabin justice. See you next year!

Poor communication, dirty house, inaccurate description. Here is need to know info for your stay

First, the property owner and property manager do not communicate with eachother. Propery owner (manager of vrbo listing) does not respond in a timely manner to renters, if at all. This property is listed in 2 different locations which provide conflicting information (Vrbo and Northland Lodging LLC). The house was dirty when we arrived. A half stick of salami hanging from the chandelier, moldy stinky dishes in the dishwasher, sticky counter and table, pile of dirty towels and bedding in the closet, squashed bug guts and blood on the walls (I get this happens, but is an easy thing to wipe off as you clean). The living area windows had no screens, but we later found them under a bed. Also no screens on the patio doors. There is no swimming area. The shoreline is all weeds and there is no lader on the dock. **caution! The doc is very wobbly with trip hazard boards** We fixed the bedroom door that wouldn't shut, just needed the hinge tightened. -You will need aprox 300 feet of extension cord to reach your boat for battery charging. -NOT handicap accessible at all -Nowhere to turn around in the driveway with a boat trailer, so be advised. We had to park our trailer on the roadside, have a trailer lock handy. The location on the flowage is wonderful! We had good fishing, enjoyed the wildlife that wandered through (doe and two fawns) and the loons calling. We would definitely recommend vacationing in the area, just not this property.

About the host

Hosted by Claude Dahlk

We enjoy visiting our cabin and relaxing with our friends and family that visit us when we are there. We built the cabin in 2008 and have enjoyed ice fishing, snowmobiling, boating and buying antiques in many of the small towns near our cabin. We enjoy the sounds of the loons when they call and watching/feeding the bald eagles that nest near our cabin.

Why they chose this property

We built our cabin with the intent of enjoying the recreational activities with friends and family. The uniqueness and limited access to private land owners on the Flowage was one of our desires in owning a second home.

What makes this property unique

The fishing is excellent, we know and are friends with several great fishing guides on the lake so for a beer or two I can usually pry the information out of them. We routinely feed the bald eagles the fish remains after cleaning them, both in the summer and winter months. We have an ice shanty and can drive out on the lake to catch some nice Walleyes.
