Cabin had plenty of space for our family and dog. The weather was brutal but the cabin was sealed and warm throughout our trip. We would definitely rent again.

The house was great, and the managers went above and beyond! We would definitely stay here again. The only thing I would add is that it would have been nice to know that there was a cabin very close on the left that will share the some of the yard and parking space. If we stay again, we will rent both and just have family use the second space.

About the host

Hosted by Tim

Host profile image
We are a family-owned business based in Mercer, Wisconsin, and we enjoy sharing the Northwoods experience with our guests. When we're not working, you'll usually find us fishing, hunting, boating, or spending time outdoors with our family.

We take pride in providing clean, well-maintained properties and helping guests make the most of their stay by sharing local knowledge, recommendations, and insider tips. Whether you're visiting to relax by the lake, explore the trails, or enjoy some of the area's excellent fishing, we're glad to host you and hope you'll make lasting memories during your stay.

Why they chose this property

We chose this area because it offers everything we love about the Northwoods. Surrounded by lakes, forests, and miles of trails, it provides the perfect balance of relaxation and outdoor adventure.

What we enjoy most is the peaceful atmosphere and easy access to fishing, boating, ATV and snowmobile trails, hiking, and wildlife viewing. Even though it feels secluded and quiet, you're still just a short drive from local restaurants, shops, and community events. It's a place where you can truly unplug, slow down, and enjoy time with family and friends.

What makes this property unique

Bayview 1 offers the rare opportunity to stay directly on the Turtle Flambeau Flowage, one of Wisconsin's premier destinations for fishing, boating, and exploring the Northwoods. With over 13,000 acres of water, numerous islands, and miles of undeveloped shoreline, the Flowage provides a true wilderness experience that is difficult to find elsewhere.

The cabin features warm log-sided construction, large windows that bring in natural light, and a spacious deck where guests can relax and take in the peaceful surroundings. Whether you're casting for musky and walleye, watching bald eagles soar overhead, or simply enjoying a quiet evening by the water, Bayview 1 offers an authentic Northwoods getaway.
