We rented this cabin for a little relaxing getaway before our children started school. We were hoping for some good olâ family bonding and good fishing. It did not disappoint!
We pulled into the cabin late. Even in the dark we could tell that this cabin was not like the cabins surrounding it. This is a true cabin nestled between beautiful new lake homes. But itâs ok, your not here for a fancy lake home.
The cabin has some nice updates, everything youâll need in the kitchen and a nice bathroom, but it still has that cozy cabin feel. There are lots of amenities to this place that you donât always find at a rental such as supplied soap, towels, shampoo, toilet paper, paper towels, coffee and even food items.
Letâs head outside, THIS is what you came for! Although the lake is a recreational lake and it was a holiday weekend, it was VERY quiet. We saw a handful of pontoons, a few fishing boats and two jet skis. We didnât bring any water toys but that didnât stop our family from enjoying the lake. Youâll have use of a Lilly pad, canoe, kayak, paddle boat and other beach toys. The paddle boat is a little difficult to steer but just go, take it out, youâll have a blast struggling to figure it out. Paddle straight out from the dock and start casting. Youâll likely reel in a few northerns and a bass or two. If you donât have the patience for that just put a small chunk of worm on a hook and drop it to the right of the dock. Before the line settles youâll have a sunny hooked. When the sun goes down, youâll start reeling in catfish.
Between taking pictures of all the fish you reel in, youâll want to be ready at about 7:30 to get all those family photos as the sun sets behind you. It truly is breathtaking!
Finish your day with a fire, pre set up by the host OR go into the cabin and relive your twenties with a dart board tournament! If darts arenât your cup of tea, thereâs also a large selection of games including 90âs trivia, cards, dominos and candyland.
A hidden little gem we werenât expecting was a nice, easy 2 mile walking trail about 4 blocks from the cabin. It provided a good break from fishing.
Stop on your way to the cabin at Tales and Trails in Zimmerman for minnows or grab some worms at the Holiday station. Youâll need them!
This vacation was just what we needed and we look forward to visiting again, maybe this winter for some ice fishing. Thanks for the fun Lake Fremont!
