Loons Nest Stay
We returned after staying here in 2021. The cabin is awesome and the location is great. Checking in was easy and we had a lot of family time/fun. The cold temperatures could not keep us off the lake and trails. The owners and management are also great!!

Perfect winter getaway!
The perfect winter getaway! The house was absolutely beautiful and clean. It had everything you could need for a family. The beds were comfortable, the set up is perfect, the views are gorgeous, and I cannot explain how CLEAN it was. There was not a speck of dust anywhere. Our family of five was sad to leave but look forward to coming back!

Review of Loons Nest
This is a beautiful property that has a real up north feel. There are deer that come to the back door and eat out of your hands. Very nicely furnished. The only difficulty we had was communication with management. It would also be helpful to have instructions for the furnace, the blower for the fireplace and the checkout process. The management group communicates very well after checkout. Overall wonderful place, great for a family b

Beautiful cabin in a perfect setting
The cabin slept 9 adults easily and had room for more. Very spacious and beautiful. Just off the water. Will absolutely rebook this property. Highly recommend
