About this property

Hidden Lakeside Gem! Peaceful Campsite + Bunkhouse in Charming Sawyer.

Unwind in Sawyer at this pleasant campground. Guests enjoy a peaceful setting perfect for relaxing and reconnecting with nature. The site includes full hook ups for your camper/RV, a nice boat launch, kayaks, and a cute little bunkhouse making it an excellent choice for a simple getaway. Whether you’re here to explore or just unwind, this spot offers a calm retreat from the everyday.

Couple things to mention. The bunkhouse has power but no running water. It has one couch but does not pull out to a bed. I had to put “sofa bed” on the description in order to go to the next step. You will have to bring your own cot or air mattress as well. There is a mini fridge in there as well as a microwave and a cast iron skillet.

The front yard is very spacious and perfect for playing yard games. This lake lot is located on a peaceful dead end road which makes it great for walks with the fam!

Fishing has been a hit or miss for us here. One day we won’t have a bite, the next day my son will catch a 13” crappie right off the dock. My boys have also caught nice sunnies (even a 10” one), jumbo perch (caught a 12” jumbo), and some northerns. I’m looking forward to hearing what everyone else catches here!

This really is such a private and peaceful lake. We have an older couple as neighbors who are truly amazing people so we do ask that once it gets a little late to not blare music too loud or anything like that just so we can still respect them and their house.

We really hope you enjoy this property as much as we do! We have big plans next year on renovating the bunkhouse and making a nice sandy beach area as well. We’re evening thinking about building a cabin here in the near future.

We look forward to welcoming you to our place.
The accommodation features a patio and space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Other standard amenities include a microwave, a refrigerator, and a stovetop.
