Property was amazing. Perfect for weekend getaway. We had booked a guided ice fishing trip on lake desolation so this property was the perfect location. Place was super clean with all the amenities you could ask for as well as being very secluded and private. I would highly recommend and would book again!!

Home away from home!

Absolutely adorable little cottage in the woods. The owners didn’t forget a thing. Would recommend this to anyone looking for a getaway in the woods with all bells and whistles. If you forgot to pack something they most likely will have it for you! Thank you Rustica Retreat for a special weekend away from home!
