Great communication! Amazing views right on the shoreline of the lake. Easy to get kayaks in and out of. This rustic cabin had everything we needed and the hosts really take care of the place. The small town of Barrett is a gem.

Great location and satisfying accommodations

Perfect for our 4 day/3 night summer getaway. Cabin included so much to enjoy our stay. The AC worked terrific and the dock was connected directly to the deck making super easy access to swim, fish and kayak. We loved the large deck, bbq grill & fire pit as well.

We LOVE this place! It’s relaxing & comfotable…and there’s something magical about the deck…I can sit out there for hours. There are beautiful sunrise views, fishing on the dock is so handy, and people in town are so nice. I wish there was a ladder so we could swim here but the town beach is nice.

Great property

Clean, welcoming home accurately advertised. Great space for enjoying the views of the lake. We had a successful fishing weekend catching walleye, northern, bass, crappie, sheepshead, and sunfish. Charcoal grill and fire pit made for peaceful evenings.

Reunion

Needed a place to stay for a reunion in the area. Perfect location for this, especially since we were at the Pavilion in Barrett one of the days. That was within walking distance. Awesome views of the lake from the porch and living room, the last night especially! Sheets, towels, paper towels, toilet paper, laundry detergent etc all available at property.

Keep It a Secret!

No, that would be selfish. Me and my Son and Daughter all can hardly wait to return. Beautiful Barrett Lake is just steps from your door. The place is beautifully furnished, fun and well supplied kitchen. Air conditioning was great, and wonderful shower. Having the kayak available was a real bonus. It was so perfect, we almost don’t want to tell anyone about it, but we really will. Thank you for all you have done to great this lovely ‘Get Away’. VYONNE HOWG

Decent little place - reasonable price

Our stay in the small town of Barrett was overall good. The property is a bit "rustic" from the outside but decent / clean on the inside. The neighbors were very nice & friendly. It was quiet, safe, and peaceful there. Pros : 1) WiFi, TV, Washing Machine & dryer all worked! 2) We were able to add our own TV accounts via Roku which was nice since it rained hard on some days / nights.3) we were able to fit a 17' boat in the garage (diagonally) during one of the more severe storms. 4) the dock was nice to tie the boat up to so we didn't have to trailer it every day. (bring your own bumper bouys)5) all plates, cookware, utensils, towels, etc were included.6) for us the fishing was great! We night fished from 7pm - midnight 4 of the nights and caught 30 walleye (15" - 23") and a handful of huge crappies. Cons : 1) short amount of time on hot water for showers. After a 5-10 min shower the next person will have to wait a while for hot water.2) the fire pit needs replaced. Some larger coals did fall through the rust holes in the bottom however there was a protective mat underneath to shield the wood deck.3) The AC unit did cool the house ok, however it was a bit loud if you tried to watch TV with it running and tripped the circuit breaker twice during our stay.
