Wonderful place to stay!
Just finished a visit to this cabin - returning after a stay here last year. The host is very attentive - comes by for an initial tour and answers questions, then easily available by email - and the cabin is nicely stocked with a lot of extras. Very near to New Richmond - lots of nice restaurants - and also near lovely Willow River State Park. Bass Lake is very pretty and quiet. We recommend this place for a great “cabin-on-a-lake experience”!

Felt dirty and mildewy
The person who owns the cabin is very nice, but the cabin has a ton of their personal things inside. For example, old robes hanging on the bathroom doors, clothes in the drawers... it felt very dirty. I had to quick and clean before more guests arrived, sweep the stairs, and clean out all the spider webs from the paddle boat and canes. I opened all the windows to get the mildewy smell out especially in the basement.

Great cabin on a lake
We stayed here with 9 women for a bachelorette party of women in their mid 30s! We had noticed in some of the reviews of the listing some slightly negative things, but the boat and some of the interior decor had been updated since those reviews. We had a great stay, Reggie was awesome to work with!

What a way to kick off summer!
Two friends and I rented this cabin for two nights. It's so fantastic! It had everything we hoped for--lakefront, gorgeous views (that porch in the trees!), a hot tub, and space for all of us to have a bed. We're already plotting a return visit!

Late family Christmas
This cabin was the perfect location for our family to get together from Iowa, Minnesota and Wisconsin. We had such a great time. There was plenty of room for all 8 of us and the winter weather was perfect. Some people ice fished with some nice catches, some just played in the snow. We played games, and even spent a little time in the hot tub. We hope to came back in the summer. We were so happy to have

This cabin was exactly what we needed. Beautiful area and plenty of space for everyone.
Robert was a phone call away with any questions or needs we had. My son Tanner would have been 26 yrs old on Dec 2…. We celebrated him, lit a couple Chinese lanterns over the beautiful lake, took walks with our dog. Neighbors were friendly and inviting ! Thankyou for sharing your home with us, we would definitely rent this place again!

Not exactly what we expected
I need to say that this was not the cabin we expected for the premium price we paid. We had a good time, the owner was nice and accommodating, however the cabin could use some really big cleaning. It’s jammed with little things like hundreds of dolls and little things all over the place. That made us think about the cleaning process and we had concerns with dust and places inside that it’s impossible to clean and dust. Also the carpet was super old and nasty looking. We all thought what could be underneath the carpet. Also the kitchen was very dated and not clean, we found dishes and utensils that were never washed after use, which it was disgusting. If you have a little kid and you go to this place, it would be a horrible choice! The lift was very nice to use, however it wasn’t working properly and we almost got stuck one time because it stopped in the middle. Luckily our friends were in the cabin and we call them so they activated the lift. We paid to use the so called pontoon (platform with plastic chairs basically). It was ok, however the motor was struggling with 4 people on board. Overall we made the best out of everything, but wouldn’t go back to this place if we have a chance. I am trying to be fair and express our group concerns sos other people know what to expect. I did not have an impression that we will be somewhat disappointed from reading the reviews. They all were great and cheerful for some reason. Our experience was different and not so great!

Perfect little cabin getaway!
We had an excellent time here for our family’s cabin get-together. Reggie was a super friendly, helpful host. We had no trouble finding the place with the help of phone navigation, and everything was exactly as pictured. When the listing says “fully stocked,” they MEAN it - we ended up bringing more than we needed. We had a great time cruising the lake on the boat, the view was picturesque, and the neighborhood was super quiet. 10/10 would go back.

SO GREAT!
We spent 3 nights at this cabin and really enjoyed these accommodations. The cabin sits on a very pretty lake that we explored in canoes that are provided. There is a wonderful deck and a screened in porch. There were lots of little amenities in the cabin that made our visit so comfortable. The cabin is 15 minutes away from grocery stores and restaurants in Hudson and in New Richmond. The best part was our host, who really went the extra mile to make sure we knew how everything worked in the cabin and answered questions about the area. We would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful weekend
Instead of staying at a block of hotel rooms for a wedding, my family was able to gather at this awesome cabin and hangout together between the festivities. Reggie was a great host and personally showed us all the amenities we could take advantage of. We were blessed with gorgeous weather and took full advantage of the lake by using the canoes and pontoon boat. Cabin had a fun vibe with lots of interesting knick knacks to look at. Only wished we could have spent more time there!

Very nice cabin close to the cities. Be aware the cabin has a LOT of knickknacks, which were endlessly tempting to my kids to mess with, and some old dolls they found quite creepy. The stairs to the lake are steep and numerous- at least 70! But the lake is very clean and so many fish, and the host is very nice and communicates very well.

This log cabin on a beautiful lake on a wooded lot is a lovely getaway from the city. This is clearly a family treasure and the fun and friendships of the family is reflected throughout. We had bad weather so enjoyed playing games from their collection. Will need to come back in the summer to enjoy the lake!
