Phenomenal place to stay!

The house and property were perfect for the trip we took. This was our 10th year of doing a bird hunting trip, and we hadn’t done a trip to Drummond before. The neighborhood is quiet with plenty of wildlife all around the house. You are close to a gas station and grocery store, and minutes away from great hunting and fishing. The house was comfortable, making the stay very pleasant, even after chasing birds through the woods the entire day.

Peaceful and Serene

Lovely setting especially for morning sunrises and coffee on the large deck! We saw deer just off the deck, cranes, ducks and a Loons. Location is close to the "Four Corners" for shopping and dining. We hiked and kayaked and drove around the island to explore. We read and relaxed. Wonderful stay! We'll be back for sure!

Special 85th Birthday

We traveled to Drummond in celebration of my Mother’s 85th birthday. She’s not had a getaway for several years so it was important to us to make this trip special. The cottage and Kari, the property manager didn’t disappoint! Kari made sure that ALL the comforts of home awaited us. She is friendly, helpful and gracious! One day during our stay, her hubbiie came back from fishing with a great haul of walleye and pike. He actually offered us a fish for dinner! We politely declined, but how nice is that??? We’ve never stayed at a VRBO rental that was so well stocked. From paper products and personal hygiene items to cooking spices, laundry detergent and more! The place was clean, comfortable and the fairy tale storybook cabin up north. Every day we were entertained by a myriad of animal activity, mink, deer, raccoons, and bird species we haven’t seen in years if at all! To the owner of this property and to Kari, we extend a huge Thank You for allowing us to make this new wonderful memory with Mom! God Bless!

Was a great stay! First day saw lots of wildlife including Eagles, deer, loons, and heron. The deer are super friendly! Property was as advertised and a great time for the family. We spent many days boating around the islands and soaking in the amazing sites and weather. Lake was a bit too low for our ski boat to dock at the pier so we launched every day.

What a Gem!

What a gem of a house! We came up for a last vacation before school starts & it did not disappoint! My father & sister joined my husband, myself & our kids, & we were all blown away by how beautiful the property was. Right on the water, we enjoyed all the wildlife that came through, had bonfires every night, & enjoyed the very spacious backyard. The house inside was cozy & perfect for our needs. We really enjoyed the stocked kitchen, along with the washer & dryer. Dryer was a little finicky but other than that, everything was absolutely lovely. Carrie made check in & check out super easy. Overall a 10/10 experience! We’ll be back for sure:)

Beautiful views

Loved the tame deer and all the wildlife on the lake. Plenty of room for my family of 4 and my 2 parents. It did get hot inside with no AC, and made sleeping a little tough, but we survived with a lot of fans. We also didn't have good luck fishing in the bay, but next time we'll have a better idea on where to go. Overall, we enjoyed our 3 days there.

Relaxing

Our stay at Dads Paradise was just that. It was kind of like staying in a nature preserve. If it wasn’t deer it was sandhill cranes, or blue herons, or the loons, just to name a few. The best of all was the treat brought to us by Casa. The bass were a welcome surprise. Thank You
