R&R privacy
Very private property with plenty of room for the family to spread out. Fishing was excellent even from the dock and the lake was easy to navigate in a fishing boat. We loved the screened porch and the ample level grassy areas outside for yard games. The air was keeping up very well even on a day with highs in the 90’s

Fantastic
We had a great time at the lake! Kids loved swimming and jumping off the dock. Fishing was spectacular, 2 of the kids caught their first Northerns, one of which was caught right off the dock along with some nice sunnies. Everyone was asking to come back next year already after day one. We loved the privacy and being able to take our dogs along. More than enough room for the 7 of us. Communication with host was excellent.

Peaceful and quiet spot on the lake.
Having a screened in porch to enjoy the outdoors without the bugs was wonderful. The cabin was very clean and comfortable. The lake water was nice and warm when we were there and not weedy by the dock, but pretty rocky. Our only complaint was being woken up early in the morning by someone right outside our windows mowing and trimming the lawn! Weird timing.

Nice getaway
Cabin had everything we needed. Nice dock and screened in porch. Huge yard with camper hookup worked well for our group. Location is somewhat remote with lots of gravel roads. Map directions do not bring you to the right address.

Great Place!
We enjoyed our stay. We were 5 brother’s getting together for some fishing and relaxing. This place afforded us the opportunity to do both. We would return again in the future.

Fantastic stay, Great Fishing!
Driving down the long driveway to the property the lake appears and its breathtaking! The property was just perfect! The views from the deck and screen porch were fantastic! We enjoyed morning coffee on the deck looking over the lake.The lake was clear and perfect for swimming paddleboarding, kayaking, floating, boating and fishing! A trip up Boy River was fantastic fishing. The property is huge and allowed for our dogs to be off-leash the whole time. Communication with the owners was easy, friendly, and timely. We are already planning to come back next year!

Really quiet, on a lake big enough to do whatever you want. Screen-in porch was breezy and perfect for when the sun went down. Address doesn't lead to the correct location, be sure to check the photos to verify the location!!

Very peaceful location. The screened in porch was fantastic! Fishing was great. The address on VRBO is incorrect. Make sure you get the address directly from the property owner before you leave home.
