Great family get-away

Perfect family get-away. Easy access to the water, spacious gathering spaces and inside games when it was a little rainy. The cabin was described accurately and the owners were super responsive. One thing to note is the cabin is a solid 30 mins from Hayward, so prepare accordingly. We are super thankful we were able to experience the perfect cabin.

Had a great stay at the Fish Haven property - a guys, family fishing trip.The property was clean and accommodations as stated. The pool table was an extra bonus and pier could handle a couple of boats and toys. The location is approximately at the midpoint of the lake, so it is very convenient when trying to fish both sides of the lake. The host, Amy, was very responsive and flexible. Caught a 41.5 in. musky as another bonus. Great place - we’ll be back!

Why they chose this property

We love the feel of seclusion and the beautiful sunsets on Moose Lake. This area is so rich with activity or just a place to come and relax - to get away from it all. For the active, we like to take full advantage of the outdoors year round and love to fish, boat, hike, ATV/UTV and snowmobile.

We also love the area for hiking, biking, or just nature watching.
