About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
Unplug, Unwind, and Explore at Papa's Place.
Welcome to our lakefront cabin, a heartfelt throwback to Papa's place - where summer days stretched forever, fishing lines danced in the water, and evenings meant card games by lamplight. We've captured that classic cabin charm and paired it with the modern comforts you love. We have a fully equipped kitchen, high-speed Wi-Fi, smart TV's, keyless entry, and ring camera protection. Nestled right on the water's edge, this cabin invites you to slow down. Sip your morning coffee on the patio, listen to the loons call, or roast marshmallows by the fire pit. Whether you're reliving childhood memories or making brand new ones, this is the kind of place that feels like it's always been waiting for you.
If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking.

Papa's Place was so clean and very peaceful. Close to everything yet quiet and relaxing. Enjoyed the kayaks and air hockey table. Rebekah was an amazing host and spot on with details. Would highly recommend staying there!
