We had a family group of 21 at the Log Inn and had a great time! The listing is accurate to the letter & the property is lovingly maintained. Got to chat with Jerry briefly - he is a treat! Make sure to appreciate his original artwork. The place is super clean. It has the odd small scrape or scuff, which is inevitable for a place so big. It is VERY well equipped including bath towels, linens, even toys. The kitchen has every appliance you can imagine & service for 40 was not an exaggeration. Plenty of bathrooms. The kids loved the Cousins room, which is a bit separate from the other bedrooms, so less noise!Wheelchair accessibility is not just a token ramp! My niece was able to navigate the whole first floor, every entrance, AND the outdoor spaces, and there's a bathroom that seems ADA compliant. AWESOME!We had some rain which meant a little time stuck indoors, but the furnishings and amenities are so well setup that we never felt cramped. The garage game room and multiple dining room tables for meals & card games came in clutch.Just a couple minor things: the water is somewhat hard, so we brought in bottled for drinking & cooking. (They do have a softener & provided some bottled water on arrival.)Don't expect a sandy beach: the water line is mostly wooded/shrubby and the water shallow but 3 docks meant we still had good access for kayaking, swimming, & fishing (the kids caught more than they could count!). I bet we'll be back someday!

We had a wonderful week at Log Inn. check in was easy, both Dorothy and Jerry were very pleasant and east to work with.The only thing we found surprising was that there was only one oven. With as many people as we had, a second one would have been appreciated. Everything else was fabulous! We hope we left everything easy for the housekeeping staff. Thanks again!

Great property with an interesting layout. Was perfect for our annual 4-generation family vacation. First floor BR was just right for out 75-ish seniors, and plenty of room upstairs for everyone else. Just a short drive to the beach for the girls to float on our tubes, and great fishing for the guys. Dorothy gave us a tour when we arrived, and Jerry, the owner/architect, lives nearby and Ray had great fishing tips. Jerry's artist gifts are evident throughout the property. Gracious and welcoming.

Fun Family Weekend

Great stay for an extended family (approx. 20 people). Layout is great. Lovely, self-made house. Interesting architectural juxtapositions. Love the artwork. House is clean in the ways that matter (clean beds, bathrooms, etc.) Some long-term maintenance (clean walls, matching light bulbs) are less so. Great property with super-interesting paths, water channels, bridges, etc... Vegetation obstructed lake view, which is great for wildlife, but less scenic for those who'd love to sit on the deck and watch the waves. Host is friendly and responsive. Lots of parking.

Graduation MNSU

Our family stayed at the Log Inn for my son’s college graduation. The number, set up, and location of the bedrooms within the house is perfect for multi-generational get togethers and the game room and outdoor games were wonderful. Every single thing you may need is available. The house was clean, however, there are areas that need attention - for example the sliding doors were not easy to use and screens were in disrepair. There was only one pool cue for the pool table

Grooms Dinner and Hosting

A fabulous place to host our grooms dinner as we got married at Ahavah Cottage! The venue only lets you have an hour so having a place to gather afterwards that was close and large enough to host a catered meal was important. Plenty of rooms, very large kitchen and everyone was pleased! Plus, how sweet to leave treats, wine, and a note for us! Our only note is that a little later checkout would have been nice, but not that big of a deal.

Large Family weekend

My entire family gathered here for labor day weekend and everyone enjoyed their stay. We had 16 people. There was more than enough room for everyone to have their own space and not feel crowded. Having most everything on one level was important as one family member has mobility issues and was able to function fully with the one bedroom on the main level. The kitchen had an overwhelming amount of dishes and supplies for meals. The garage was a fun hangout for our crowd and there were plenty of games indoor and outdoor to choose from. The property is beautiful with little trails to the lake. We weren’t able to utilize the lake front for swimming but found 2 beaches on the lake very close by either by boat or driving. The host was quick to respond to questions that popped up along the way.

Family getaway

The house was well equipped with supplies and cooking accessories. The game room was an excellent addition. The house fit our needs very well with all the bedrooms and bathrooms. We struggled with having enough hot water. Some of the walls and doors really need a scrubbing. The outside appearance really needs attention. The siding needs power washing and the landscaping needs some work.

Father's Day with family to take little ones fishing

We had multiple family members spending Father's Day with 2 fathers and 2 grandfathers. We wanted to get together to play games and get some fishing in for the fathers with their 10 children under 11 years old. They were able to fish from the docks and bridges. This house had everything we needed. Dorothy had many special amenities for us, making us feel welcome. The kitchen was well stocked with equipment that made serving meals easy. There was plenty of room for everyone. We had a great time.
