Fun fishing trip.
The ice wasn’t perfect during our stay, but the cabin was nice. Clean, plenty of sleeping space and lots of games in the garage. Would recommend for anyone looking for a nice place to stay.

Wonderful Lake House
When I booked this house it was a new listing and didn't have any reviews, but the pics looked good so I took a chance. I'm so glad I did!!! I have stayed at quite a few properties and this was by far my favorite. House was clean and comfortable. Kitchen was stocked with all the necessities plus more. Beds were good. There is tons of extra place for guests to sleep besides the 2 bedrooms, including plenty of blankets and pillows. The lake has one of the nicest sandy bottoms I have seen. Lots of fish caught right off the dock as well in the boat we brought. Screen porch was nice when the bugs got to be too much. Game room was so much fun for the teens and adults. We will definitely be back! Thanks for a great stay

MN Summertime!!!
This place was perfect for our family & friends weekend (kids from infants to 12 yrs & 4 adults)! We have stayed many place & never had such a soft sand beach/lake bottom without weeds! The game garage was a blast & entertained the adults and big kids. The swimming raft, floating mat, and kayaks kept us on the water too! We brought our boat and chose to beach it since the bottom is all sand, as we are a bit particular ;) Overall the place is very well cared for & supplied with all we needed. The hosts were fantastic at communicating when we needed.

Fun family getaway
We were definitely in our “happy place” staying at this cabin with our family. (10 adults and four grandchildren) We enjoyed swimming, fishing, kayaking, campfires, and the game room! Our grandson caught his very first fish (Northern) off the new dock! Nice tar road is great for walks and bike rides. The hosts were super friendly, very easy to work with, and had quick responses to any inquiries we had! We would definitely stay here again!
