BEAUTIFUL LOG HOME ON THE WESTERN SHORES OF LAKE PETENWELL - PET FRIENDLY

Nestled on the western shores of Lake Petenwell, Arbor Shores invites you to live the dream of lakeside living in the privacy of your own vacation log home. Whether it's winter, spring, summer, or fall, this sanctuary promises warmth, comfort, and the beauty of nature in abundance. As you arrive, a small arbor of young trees welcomes you to the expansive 5-acre waterfront property. The log home exudes rustic charm and modern comfort, providing ample space for your extended family of up to 14.

Step inside, and you're greeted by the grandeur of the great room, with its high cathedral windows and massive beams that evoke a sense of peace and serenity. The tasteful Northwoods decor, complete with full log furniture, sets the tone for your retreat. The main level features an open floor plan encompassing the great room, kitchen, and dining area, perfect for gatherings and shared meals. A hallway leads to a queen bedroom and the luxurious master bedroom with its own master bath, complete with a jet tub and separate shower. Venture upstairs to discover the elongated loft bedroom overlooking the great room, offering two queen-size beds and a convenient shower bath. The lower level beckons with a relaxing game room, featuring a sitting area, ping-pong table, and dart board—an ideal space for entertainment and leisure. Two additional bedrooms, one queen and one king with a futon for extra sleeping space or private sitting area, complete the lower level.

Outside, the deck provides a stunning panoramic view of the lake, offering the perfect spot to savor a morning cup of coffee or gather around the campfire pit in the evening, roasting marshmallows under the starlit sky. Just a short walk away, guests can access the community pier to tie up their boat during the day, with a boat launch and sandy-bottom swimming cove conveniently nearby.

Cozy but needs updates

The fireplace and rooms made it very cozy, but technology desperately needs to be updated. We stayed on a bitterly cold weekend and were looking forward to movies and football. The downstairs tv did not work and upstairs had limited app availability on a very old device.

Scam

Be very careful with this property especially the deposit in the contract that says return in 14 days, we received it 20 days ago and they did not return us 200 dollars better look for another better property and with the same price, it is a scam and no. you are wasting your money with these individuals. The light is very little different bulbs that do not work half, spiders everywhere, the cutlery looks like it is 100 years old, it is not cared for around, dog hair everywhere. Be careful with your money. it was the last visit to this house. be careful with your money and go somewhere else. I do not recommend this scam to anyone, be careful.

Great place for a family get together

We really enjoyed our stay, our whole family got together and were able to eat, relax, enjoy the scenery, and sleep peacefully in one location. I will warn others attempting to go to this cabin that Android GPS might take you to the cabin next door, lol. Be wary of your GPS!

Splendid fall getaway

Our family had a wonderful stay at the cabin! There was plenty of room for everyone, and the cabin was clean and cozy! We had a rare 80 degree Oct day so the kids enjoyed splasing in the lake. We enjoyed the beautiful sunrises and the beautiful, peaceful location.

Great Lake Home

We enjoyed our stay at the property. It has everything you need and was a perfect get away for our family of adult and teen children. The lake was just a short walk from the porch.

Family week

This is a nice property along the lake. The listing was mostly as described. There is limited lake view from the house but access to a small nice swimming beach once you traverse some rocks to get there. There are beach chairs available in the house. Nice sandy beach and clean enough to swim (some algae in lake in general). There is a nice wooded driveway as you enter the property, with raspberries for picking, a playset for toddlers, and parking for several cars by the house. There is a nice outdoor fire ring. In case not clear to others, note that one of the bedrooms listed is really just an open loft with no sound protection. This was not ideal for our group arrangement. Two of the beds fell apart during our trip, one multiple times (slats falling out from underneath mattress and the posts coming apart since they are not bolted in place) -- we indicated to the owners which beds were problemmatic so hopefully that will not be an issue for future guests. Note that you need to bring towels not just for beach and bathing but also hand towels and dish towels. There was enough toilet paper but we needed to bring paper towels and tissues. The nearest convenience store is 15 min away and grocery store 25 min away. Lots of beautiful stars and very little noise pollution because of that, but need to plan ahead. The listing does not mention, but there are a number of items around that are good for little kids. Books, foam toys, puzzles, a high chair, sand toys. Helpful!
