Fall Colors Paradise Waterfront Log Cabin w/Ponton Rental Option Family-friendly

Stunning Lakefront Cabin Retreat | 3BR + Loft + 2BA | Sleeps 10 | Main Level Bedroom | Canoes, Kayaks & Paddleboard Included

Get away from the noise of the Cities to Little Resort on Big Trade lake, a stunning year-round log cabin on a peaceful 500-acre lake only 1.5 hours away from the Twin Cities. Perfect for swimming, fishing, and boating (pontoon rental available)!

The cabin itself is a beautiful 3 bedroom year round log home on a tranquil 500 acre lake surrounded by woods and wildlife that will instantly provide the relaxing sensation of a deep breath. It is situated on a quiet peninsula that looks out on a beautiful sun lit bay. The yard is very spacious and level with a gentle slope to the lake. No stairs to get to the water! We have a dock that is ready for you to tie up to, and 2 public launches within 2 miles.

HOME HIGHLIGHTS
* Amenities designed for family fun (kayaks, canoe, firepit, grill, indoor fireplace, board games)
* Plenty of indoor and outdoor space to spread out
* Fully-stocked kitchen
* Free parking
* Fast Wifi

In the summertime, our lake is great for swimming, fishing, and boating and is sure to produce an abundance of sunshine-fed smiles and laughter. Use the grill to cook up some steaks, make smores at our lakeside firepit, or just grab a drink and relax on the dock as the loons sing the sun down. The incredible sunsets get even better when you are bathed in the beautiful light while cruising the lake in a comfy pontoon. We are happy to help you coordinate drop-off and pick-up of a rental pontoon directly to and from the dock. Trust me when I tell you that boating does not get any easier than this! If you prefer more relaxed water activities we have a canoe, 2 kayaks, a paddle boat, Life vests, and water toys, for our guests to get out and enjoy the beautiful scenery and wildlife that our lake has to offer. We also provide lawn chairs, badminton, and bean bags to help you take advantage of the large flat yard surrounding the cabin. Did I mention the fishing is great right off the dock? It is! We never fail to get a shore lunch at the cabin :)

The fall offers gorgeous hikes and cozy nights. The colors are truly stunning! For hunters there is thousands of acres of public hunting land available within 15-30 mn of the cabin with plenty of Deer, Grouse, pheasant and Wild turkey around. If you don't want to work so hard for the birds there is a terrific game farm with all the amenities including 5 stand trap in a heated trailer that goes all winter long.

The winter time offers an incredible cozy and relaxing environment with a lot of great ways to get outside and enjoy. Cross country ski, snow shoe, ice fish, Hunt, play boot hockey, take our sleds for a ride, or snow mobile on some of the near by local trails. Down hill skiing and tubbing can be found just 40 minutes from the cabin at Wild Mountain. After you are done with Jack Frost, warm up next to a roaring fire with a warm drink, bake some cookies, play some board games and enjoy family and friends with old fashioned fun that only a log cabin in the country can provide.

The comfortable and well appointed interior of this cabin and the stunning beauty of this place will have you wishing you'd booked longer. We love this place and we would love to share it with you! We hope to see you soon. Please let me know if you have any questions at all.

Amazing and peaceful cabin! We needed a little time to unwind and this cabin was everything we hoped for! It is peaceful and so well appointed! The cabin was stocked with everything we needed and more! The layout was amazing for our family of 6! The fishing from the dock was wonderful. We would have easily had a meal or two if we were keeping them! The kids loved all the yard games and kayaks! We grabbed pizzas from the local dairy farm store and they were excellent! Cannot say enough positive things about this wonderful cabin! Our family cannot wait to return in the future! Thank you for sharing this special place with others!

Amazing stay! Peaceful and quiet

Plenty to do around Grantsburg, Webster and Siren which are all small towns. Fireplace with cut wood just outside the door, board games, and plenty of rooms if you are bringing the whole family. There is a great grill and bar called Route 35 in Webster and if you are a hunter there is public land nearby and gun ranges. We had a great time!

Excellent winter stay!

This is truly a beautiful, well appointed cabin. It was very comfortable and full of all items needed. Although the weather was incredibly cold, the fireplace was helpful in keeping the cabin warm. We enjoyed a low key weekend watching movies, reading and keeping warm by the fire. The beds were very comfortable and rooms all had great views of the lake. I can't wait to come back another time with my family.

Perfect Cabin

We had a great time here for a three day weekend. We rented the pontoon that the owner referred us too. That worked out great. Great fishing from the dock as the kids caught over 100 Crappies over the weekend. Great lake to boat on as well. The cabin was clean we were very happy with our stay. Plenty of stocked wood for fires and the charcoal grill was clean and ready to go. Overall a great experience for our family. Groceries and bait only about 10 minutes away, so it was nice to be able to grab things we wanted if needed.

family of 5 adults had a wonderful time at John's property!! This Lake is a perfect spot for those that like to swim and those that like to fish. We rented the Pontoon from the guy John recommended and took it out daily to swim in the deep water and fish. What we also enjoyed about the Lake is that it is pretty deep about 15 yards from the shore where you will feel NO weeds so swimming close to the cabin was fun too!John provided 3 kayaks, 1 canoe , paddle boat and floaties for all to use, which we did. He also provided a few yard games which we enjoyed. We enjoyed grilling on the charcoal grill and had a few evening fires by the firepit.The fisherman in our group easily caught over 100 good sized fish during our stay.Great Lake for fishing!!The Lake house was very comfortable and super clean. During our stay the temperature was in the 90s and humid so the air conditioning in the unit was so appreciated!! John provided all the towels and linen but I would recommend bringing more towels since there is no laundry use and the towels got a little rank after constant wetness and humidity.There also is no dishwasher so for the larger groups, I would recommend bringing paper plates to help with the after meal clean up.Another thing that was mentioned in another review that we realized the first time we walked up the interior stairs is, the stairs are creaky. It worked out for us because the early risers in the group slept downstairs and the late sleepers slept upstairs, so
