Very cozy place, the host answered my message for check in info. Cute spot right by the water. Recommend leaving a shovel for snowfall to clean off front steps. Will definitely be here again!

Completely enjoyed the little cabin

In spite of the rainy weather, our family completely enjoyed the little cabin. The cabin was conveniently located short distance outside of Crandon. There were several locations where the family could get near the lake to enjoy the view. A park just a short distance from the cabin was convenient, on the water,

Cute and functional

This the second time I’ve stayed at this rental in Crandon. It’s perfect for an individual, a couple, or small family and has a lovely kitchen and open living space with a backyard and fire pit that would be ideal for summer nights. The owner is quick with communication and very nice as well. For the price you cannot get much better.

Very nice stay

Everything was clean and simple and up to date. Has everything you would need. The view of the lake and the eagles was so beautiful. The location was quiet and peaceful. Definitely a good place to stay for a getaway, I would recommend.
