Wonderful stay

Our stay was excellent- the bensons were wonderful hosts. We had a personalized gift basket upon our arrival with a welcome card, the cabin was impeccable clean, the game room was an absolute hit, especially since it rained most of our stay. They thought of everything that you may need for kids and beyond. It was our first time in Hayward and we booked this on a whim-beautiful property, we are SO glad we did. We will definitely stay again, cannot recommend this enough!

Short but wonderful stay!

We had just the first 2 nights of the Memorial Day holiday weekend available for our stay but definitely left us wishing we had one more night! The property description was spot-on accurate and the photos show everything very well. Jon and Courtney have truly thought of every to make for an enjoyable stay! If you find yourself bored, that’s on you, because there are games and water sports galore, not to mention all of the streaming services on the tv’s! If you forgot something, no worries, Jon and Courtney probably have it there for you! The price tag on this rental is a little higher than I typically like to go, but with the amenities provided and attention to detail, I can honestly say that I got what I paid for! Highly recommended!!

The cutest cabin ever

I just cannot say enough how wonderful this cabin is! It's so clean, everything is decorated so cute, the beds are comfy, everything you could possibly need and more! The game room was amazing and all the games/toys make it a huge family hit! 10 mins from Hayward so easy trip into town for whatever you need but also totally secluded for peace and quiet! We will definitely be back!

A Slice of Heaven

Up to visit family and memories of childhood cabin summers. The stay exceeded all expectations. The hosts have thought of everything for family fun to solitude that the Wisconsin Tigar Cat flowage offers. Wonderful "welcome" guest basket and lovely personal card from Hosts. Both Courney and Jon extremely responsive and available during my stay. Wildlife splendid.... with wild Loons chatting on the lake in the mornings, Bull frogs, Eagles soaring, Owls hooting in early evenings, Heron family grazing on the marsh during the day and Mama doe with baby fawn coming for early morning clover breakfast. Game area even exciting solo or with family. Darts and Pac man memories for me. Not as good as back in the day however fun. Kitchen well equipped, grill wonderful. Indeed, house is all that was advertised...views out every window enhanced the experience. Highly recommend for families or couples and even solo retreat. Will be back for sure.

My daughter and I really enjoyed the time at your cabin. We did have one issue that did arise. Upon checkin we noticed a slight odor, like a dead mouse. That odor continued to increase throughout our stay. We spent time looking to see if we could find the mouse but were unable to locate it. We do understand that we were not staying at the Ritz, and we were in the woods.

We loved our weekend in Hayward. The cabin was well equipped and perfect for our family of 5. The kids raved about all the things there were to do and the game room was a huge hit. The welcome basket with smores supplies was a really nice surprise! We will definitely be returning one day.

Hayward cabin

We had a great time at the cabin. The game room was a blast, lots of outdoor games too. We took the kayaks and conoue out on the lake. My 7 year old's face lit up when he saw the gift/snack basket with smores supplies and treats. We used the grill and fire pit most of the evenings. Hayward is only about a 15 minute drive to pick up supplies or go to a restaurant. It was a great way to finish off summer!

This property was perfect for a trip with our two teenagers. Everything was just as listed and we thoroughly enjoyed the game room and water activites. It was easy to get from our area to the bigger lake and we loved exploring it. I also really appreciated the welcome packet they sent, we ended up doing a couple of the suggested activites nearby.

Great stay, beautiful property

Our young family had a great time at the cabin and will most definitely be back! The game room provided hours of entertainment for our 4 kids - and I suspect they will be talking about it until we return. Everything you could need and more is provided by the generous hosts. Hayward was still a winter wonderland during our late March visit and we enjoyed exploring the secluded property on the provided snowshoes, skiing from the nearby OO Birkie trailhead, and venturing out to Cable/Hayward shops and restaurants. Book it!

Stay Number “2” just as fun as the First Time

In looking for alternative spring break plans besides jetting off to another state or country we wanted to do something that was drivable so we decided on a two part vacation combining two things our children like, swimming and games with some outdoor fun. The swimming was done at another location but knowing how much fun our children had during our first stay at Jon and Courtney’s place we had to include a few days at their cabin. Our children enjoyed our stay here just as much as the first time and even had fun outside in the snow which included a snowshoe hike and building a snowman. My wife and I also enjoy this cabin because the kids can entertain themselves quite easily which allowed us to have some downtime to relax. Because of the great kitchen once we arrived we did not leave since we prepared all our meals at the cabin. Jon and Courtney’s cabin does have it all and we will look for a third stay at some point as this has now become one of our favorite vacation spots for any season. Thank you again for the wonderful hospitality, again.
