☆ No dirt bikes, ATVs or tents allowed on the property.
☆ 15% discount when booking 7 days or more.
☆ We hope you can enjoy the outdoor hot tub! Because we are near two bodies of water, we chose a natural wood-fired hot tub that does not contain chemicals and can be safely drained. If guests chose to use this amenity, they will fill the tub with the hose and then start a fire to get to the optimal temperature. The first preparation will take some effort and 4-6 hours to get hot, but the resulting experience of soaking under the starts, next to the lake, is truly magical. There are no jets; you will just hear the crackling of the fire and waves on the shore. Some people will cold plunge in the Lake (or snow) and return to the hot tub. This amenity is NOT available January 1st-April 1st.
☆ No more than eight guests and no more than two cars allowed on the property. Parties or events are prohibited.
☆ Children must be monitored closely. The shore line of the lake and river and the hot tub are not fenced.
☆ Our water does go through UV and triple filtration, but drinking water will be supplied to comply with the Cook County regulations regarding homes that draw water from Lake Superior.
☆ There is a one time pet fee of $75 for up to two dogs that goes to our cleaner; please no cats or other animals. Additional fees as noted in rental contract regarding pet waste left outside or evidence of dogs on the beds. Dogs must be leashed at all times.
☆ There is NO air-conditioning in the cabin. The lake breeze and provided fans are almost always enough to keep comfortable.
☆ We are a cabin in the forest and next to two bodies of water. While we do have pest control monitor our home, there are mosquitos and flies in the summer, some months are worse than others, so bringing bug spray is recommended. On the property we have spotted moose, wolves, bears, otters, deer, fox, lynx and coyotes; please respect the wildlife by keeping all food and garbage indoors.
☆ Please let us know if you have an electric vehicle. We do not have an EV hook-up, but we will advise you of options.
☆ There is a seasonal studio cabin tucked away at one end of the property that can sleep four additional guests. It can be an additional rental for the main house.

Summary: What a beautiful spot. Everything was as described in the listing, plus the amenities they provided were wonderful - well stocked kitchen, towels to use with the hot tub, lots of games for kids and adults, and on and on. Great communication, too. I thought the wood fired hot tub might feel like a chore, but it didn't - we used it a ton and loved it. Such a special place, right on the lake and the river. We loved it and hope to be back.

Summary: This property was not only gorgeous but spotless! It is so well stocked I can’t imagine what you would need that it didn’t have. The view of the lake was picture perfect. Rockers on the front porch — became our favorite place We will certainly stay here again.

Summary: We had a lovely stay. The home is thoughtfully appointed with everything we needed. It has comfortable beds and furnishings, a well stocked kitchen, and comfortable common areas. The kids also loved the wood fired hot tub. The owners are very responsive and welcoming and the view was perfect. Thank you so much for sharing your home with us!

Summary: If you’re looking for a relaxing experience up the north shore, look no more! Truly, our family needed a place to congregate since most of us live out of state and it was very accommodating. It has all the bells and whistles in the kitchen from sharp fabulous knives to a Darth Vader toaster…lol. The enclosed porch has a game table to a sofa that faces Lake Superior. Every night we enjoyed chatting by the fire place with enough room for all 7 of us. They have views from every aspect of their adorable cabin. When I tell you we were pleasantly surprised when we entered our code to enter the “barn” looking cabin is an understatement. Decorated very lovely and so very relaxing. Thank you for a wonderful experience, and we hope to return again.
