The host was great. The cabin is awesome, and it is a great setting with the sherwood shop up the street, and the lake and wood stove. Really quiet and relaxing. The only thing is the beds are, for the most part, not comfortable. Bring extra pillows.

Three of us stayed for a girls’s weekend in January. We had a wonderful time! The kitchen is stocked with everything you need. Lots of wood provided for the wood stove. Plenty of board games for enjoyment. Our only complaint is the downstairs futon mattress. It was so uncomfortable I slept on the couch. It needs to be replaced. Thank you so much for a wonderful time.

Charming lake cabin

I love this place! It's been beautifully remodeled and is very comfortable. I would love to visit when it's warmer, but it's very cozy in the snow. I can't wait to come back with my kids.
