a perfect little place with all the thoughtfulness you can imagine from our host. for 80 year old travelers, a bit difficult to get to the water, but the water was clear to the bottom at the end of the dock. a perfect setup for those a few years younger, but a pleasure just for the view. relax, this is relaxation at it's finest.
The cabin was very clean and comfortable. Loved sitting on the deck overlooking the lake while enjoying an early morning cup of tea each day. Very peaceful. Wonderful week!
(The listing says there is a pool; this was just a mistake, I'm sure.)
Les points faibles : Emplacement et exactitude de lâannonce
Disappointed
I want to preface this by saying that the cabin itself is very accurate to the listing. Altho, I'm not sure I'd qualify ice cube trays in the freezer as an 'ice maker'. The cabin is clean and very comfortable and has everything you need.
Having said that..it would have been nice if the owner had mentioned the construction that started daily @ 6:30 am at the cabin directly next door. Obviously I don't blame them FOR the construction, but a 'heads up' would have been nice.
We were also extremely disappointed in the quality of the lake, especially because I specifically asked the owner about it and they said it was 'a little green, but not scummy'. Well, I wouldn't even let my dog swim in that water. It was nothing but weeds and scummy grossness.
So, the 2 main things I was looking for were a total bust: quiet and a swimable lake. Both things I asked about and was given, well not exactly truthful responses.
We wouldn't stay here again.
Knotty Pine is an idyllic cabin nestled along Upper Turtle Lake. The cabin was perfect for us complete with all the amenities one would want. The cabin was clean and welcoming, and the layout of the rooms and view was ideal. Loons were calling in the mornings and to have coffee on the deck overlooking the lake in the mornings was storybook. I would give the Knotty Pine 6 stars if I could. One more thing, after a 1,500-mile drive to get there, I would do it again in a heartbeat.
Cabin very quaint & comfortable. Property experience exactly matched the listing. Pleasant deck, lower patio, and pier to choose from for reading, conversation, or just chilling. Kitchen had all basic supplies. Great grill for outdoor cooking. Nice fire pit for evening fire. Lake was bigger than expected but quiet. Did lots of kayaking and eagle watching! Would definitely return.
Charming lake cabin atmosphere with plenty of windows that have a great view of the lake. Sunrise is a spectacular event. Provided internet access and television service is also a plus. Overall a very enjoyable experience!
This was our second time we have stayed at Knotty Pine. The weather was perfect. The cozy cabin was just right for us with easy access to the private boat dock and lake. We could sit on the deck and watch the boats on the water. Inside the cabin we had all the amenities needed for an enjoyable stay. We plan to return next year.
My husband, dog Daisy and I rented for the weekend. This place is very cozy and cute. Turtle Lake is very pretty. Swimming probably is good earlier in the season before late summer algae forms- check WI DNR for water quality. With a dog, we have to stay on our toes with this kind of thing. Nevertheless, the view is lovely, and the property is charming. The proprietor is very accessable via message, and even preemptively gave specific "last leg" directions due to some navigation systems not getting guests to the place. We would definitely come back some time and stay again.
We chose this location to be close to home for a shorter getaway and we were pleasantly surprised! The patio area and dock is perfect for relaxing and the cabin was cute and clean. Would have loved a kayak or canoe to get out on the water! Would definitely recommend!
Very nice cabin, well stocked had everything I needed.
My family came up for a bbq, there was plenty of room. It was very clean and well organized. I brought my jet ski and had a blast. I would definitely rent this cabin again!!! Thanks for the fun weekend!!
