Great pet-friendly getaway in the Northwoods for our family! The cabin was very well-appointed with everything we needed! Instructions for what we needed to bring and how to close up were very clear! We would love to stay again! We loved the fishing and seeing/ hearing the loons!
This is our second time staying here. Both times were great. Susan is very quick to respond to any questions. The lake offers good fishing, particularly for bass, and it leads to another large lake. Long Lake is massive and has a lot of wildlife on it. The cottage was very nice, clean, and up to date. Everything that was listed in the listing was provided and very accurate. We will be back in the future.
Very relaxed stay at the lake house. The paddle boats and kayak were the biggest hit as well as feedibg bluegills. We were lucky enough to see a full moon while roasting marshmallows on the firepit to make s'mores.
The property was well kept and exactly what we expected. We have had many summers on this lake with several family members owning properties. Sadly they have all sold their properties and we now have a place where we can stay and enjoy the lake and wildlife.
It was a great location and place to stay however it was dirty. It had dirt on the countertops and floors. They expect the guests to clean it up after they stay there but the previous tenants didnât. So if you are only interested in the location this is the place to go.
My family and I loved our stay at the lake house. It was very clean and a beautiful location. We visited nearby areas of Rhinelander and Eagle River. This was our first trip to the North Woods and it did not disappoint.
Cabin was very clean and comfortable! The view outside was absolutely breathe taking! Our boys had a blast too! Sad leaving.... so definitely coming back next year!
It was a great stay! The pictures don't do this place justice.
A lot larger than it looks. Great kitchen, Incredible views.
Just note you need to bring your trash with you.Grat collection of games and movies to watch and play. The internet was very slow and spotty. 100/10
Great stay and property. Swimming was great off the dock. Fishing was pretty good also. Two very minor items: not aware that we needed to bring bath towels & wash cloths, we had to take our garbage home. I believe we will be back. Loved the stay. Jim & Barb Kluball
This property is located off of any main roads and is very quiet and relaxing! It was the perfect size for the five of us. On the lake we caught so many bass we lost count! We had a boat but there was also a paddle boat and a Kayak for the kids. THe lake is very large and connects to Bass lake which is also large. Everything about this property was very nice. I believe this is the most relaxing vacation we ever had!!!
Make sure you realize you must take garbage back with you. There is no wifi or TV stations (boys wanted to watch the packers / Brewers - oh well). Other than that it was in a great location no wake lake. Perfect lake for Kayaking or fishing. Amish bulk food store in Gleason has a wonderful Deli selection! Get worms from Country ladies.
This is the second time my wife have stayed here with our dog and we've really enjoyed it each time. We take our kayaks and paddle and fish on the lake which has great bass fishing.
The house is very comfortable with a great view of the water and the pier is just a few steps out the back door.
The house has a nice open, spacious kitchen/dining area, ample sleeping space, a comfortable living room with a TV, and a fire pit out back for enjoying an evening under the stars. The host is very easy to communicate with if you have any problems.
If you want to go to town, Rhinelander, Merrill, and Tomahawk are all within a half hour drive. And if you like beer, check out Sawmill Brewing Co. in Merrill. They have excellent craft beer, a nice outside seating area under tall pine trees with a small stage for local performers, and you can bring your own food (if you like Mexican fare, I recommend Los Mescales).
All in all, a very secluded, peaceful and relaxing place to stay.
Husband and I wanted a relaxing week away to recharge. This is definitely a good spot to do this. The lake is very peaceful and quiet. Was expecting to see more birds- eagles especially, but did see a few loons. Husband caught a bass and some Blue gill, which we grilled up.
Only disappointment is the lack of Wi-Fi/ internet. We had very poor reception on our phones. Now, granted, some would say that this is truly getting away- and it was fine, but I do like to stay connected with what is going on in the world. That being said, it did give us time to play games together and just relax.
We both brought our kayaks along, and enjoyed tooting around the lake exploring.
Maybe have a kayak available? Would be nice to not have to bring along.
Overall- great place- VERY CLEAN, nice open space. Comfortable.
Thank you, Susan!
Overall it was a nice stay and the cabin is nice. BUT, a rough start finding mouse droppings on the sheets of one bed. The backup sheets were laying on the closet floor in an open garbage bag with mouse droppings on the bag. No thank you from the host for changing the sheets and not making a big deal about it because yes, it is a cabin. None of the linen was in totes to keep the mice out, only the plastic bags they were bought in which is a perfect home for mice. There was a big note on the refrigerator about how we were expected to clean the cabin but were charged a $100 cleaning fee. In the refrigerator there was blood under the glass shelves that probably leaked from a package of meet and the rest of the refrigerator was not cleaned well or at all. There were popsicles left in the freezer from someone. I asked the host about where the bath towels were located because every other place I have rented included towels and the host replies bluntly with the listing says "we don't provide towels" but the truth is that the listing doesn't say anything about bath towels and you have to assume they are not included. The basement sump pump runs about every 20 minutes so if you are a light sleeper, that is rough. It's very peaceful outside, that is until a vehicle drives down the road across the lake and it echoes across the water. The water out of the faucet was hard and tasted bad.There was an electric skillet in the kitchen but no power cord. Cell booster was nice but no WiFi or ca
We were in the area for the fall ride and since we found this beautiful home on a lake we decided to bring our kayaks as well. We could not be happier with the house, it was absolutely beautiful. Every morning the guys enjoys their coffee while us girls cooked breakfast, we enjoyed the area ride on the bikes durning the day and coming back to a fire at night was great. Very nice way to relax and end the nights. We would definitely rent this house again
My family and I have stayed in this area for vacations and fell in love with the area. We have done different projects over the years, and when this became available, we loved the lot so close to the water, we thought 'why not'. It has been lots of fun and close to home, therefore, fast and easy to get to.
I love to sit and look out the window early in the morning. I've seen fish jumping to fox running across the frozen lake,and bald eagles flying over head. My all time favorite is fishing. I've caught fish and I haven't, but I've never had a bad day.
