The best cabin ever!

This is my favorite cabin in the north woods. Stayed three times so far and will be back again. Immaculately clean and in three different stays have not seen a single bug. super tight windows and great air conditioning in a hot July week. Great communication every time. I highly recommend.

Fishing Trip Home Base

The cabin worked well for four fishing buddies. There were some hiccups checking in, but the owner responded immediately and remedied the situation. Boat batteries had to be charged a short walk away from the cabin, but it worked out. Washer and dryer were convenient to have there. One key was lost, but owner was chill about it.

Great cabin for snowmobiling

This is such a cute little cabin. We were there for a weekend snowmobiling trip. This rental has super easy access to the trails. We were there with our 2 teenage boys. There was plenty of space for us to hang out together on the large sofas or at the large kitchen table and everyone was able to have some space and privacy in their own rooms at night. It was also super nice to have a 2nd bathroom. It was too cold for us to use the porch area, but what a great spot that would be during a summer or fall trip. We head to Mercer every year, and we would certainly rent this cabin again.

Fun getaway

This is a great little cabin. Plenty of room to spread out. Nice location right on the trails and right on the lake. Love the gas fireplace and the sun porch (great for getting on all the riding gear in the morning without overheating inside the house!) The kitchen could definitely use a good cleaning and some previous renters didn't leave things very clean (I found some pretty yucky unwashed things in the cabinets). The provided towels and sheets are on the thin and "well used" side. But it's certainly a comfy place to stay for a family trip. We had a great time. This is our second time renting from this owner. Good experience both times. Would recommend.

Comfort from being away from home.

After checking in we noticed the dishes were put away dirty but we sanitized them so we could use them. The water was low so we had to put in and take out our boat and was told by the owner we could beach our boat but due to no information that this property was in a retreat the neighbors told us no we could not allow it. One neighbor did let us use his dock the remainder of our stay. The home is beautiful and sits with beautiful views of the water. The advertisement should state that’s it’s in a retreat and rules to follow. Overall it was a great place and the neighbors were very nice to us.

Nice home but…..

The house and property were really quite nice. The listing indicates that a pier with electrical for charging boat batteries is available for use. Perfect. The issue was this - this body of water experiences fluctuations in water level due to a dam controlled by an energy company. Four feet of fluctuation throughout the year is not uncommon. I had found out that the water level when we were going to be there was two feet below full pool. When I asked if that would be a problem with the pier I was told that it could be, but that in that event I could beach our boat at the condo association boat launch - an unimproved sand beach - overnight. When I got the info for our stay it included the condo association rules which indicated that beaching one’s boat was no longer allowed, and that if a pier was unusable due to the water level, I’d have to launch and load my boat each time. Needless to say, I couldn’t even get close to the pier (my boat is 17’-8” long), and it appeared that it’s the only pier in the area that had that issue. The kicker is that you can’t keep your trailer at the house you’re renting (where the electricity for charging the boat batteries is), but it had to be kept at the trailer parking area, which is 400-500 feet from the house. The residents are quite serious about that rule, too, even though my boat and trailer wouldn’t have blocked anyone’s driveway, and would almost not be visible from any of the homes. I was able to talk to a few of them about my issue (when they confronted me about my offense), and they did allow me to park my boat/trailer on the concrete pad in front of the detached garage of the house (which is in full view of most of the homes). Each launch included driving back to the house (not far at all), backing the trailer onto the pad, disconnecting the trailer and parking my truck in the driveway. Launching in the morning for a day of fishing was fine. Having to then reverse the process to load the boat back on the trailer, just to then disconnect it again on the pad to have dinner, then repeat the entire thing for fishing after dinner just became too much of a hassle to deal with. If you enjoy fishing with your own boat at all times of the day and evening, I’d encourage you to make sure the water level is no more than one foot below full pool or you’ll be as frustrated as we were.

Our family had a wonderful time at the property and on the lake. The home has plenty of space for our family. Dan has provided pretty much anything you need right on the property which made cooking and the overall experience so nice. Additionally, at the last minute we were not able to get our pontoon boat that we reserved and Dan stepped up to help us find another one. He is a great property owner!!
