Summary: An excellent choice especially for large groups. House is well provisioned and well maintained. Nice touch having the fire place light upon arrival.Owners checked to make sure everything was on track. Exceptional experience.

Elizabeth C. Dec 28, 2025 08:51:22 AM

Summary: This cabin was absolutely amazing! Everthing was clean and very comfortable. The bedrooms are away from the from the living room making it quiet for those who wish to sleep. The kitchen was well supplied with a variety of pans and cooking supplies. The host was quick to answer any questions. I would highly recommend making a reservation.

JOHN S. Dec 8, 2025 06:54:02 AM

Summary: Entire house was clean, cozy and modern. Great layout for large family gathering. Beautiful location on lake and close to town. Great game room and bunk room perfect for kids. Host was great and replied to questions promptly. Comprehensive digital guidebook provided by host. Easy check-in process. Our entire family loved it.

Dan R. Oct 1, 2025 08:43:08 PM

Summary: A great setup for groups with plenty of room. We had 4 couples staying together, and it worked out great. While one was in the bunk room, they loved having their own bathroom. A major plus is the house layout, with all the sleeping areas on one end of the place and the main common areas on the other. That way as people woke up they could join the group without disturbing those still sleeping.The sauna was great and got used almost every day. The boat launch area could be improved, but moving massive boulders to create a cleaner area probably isn’t a priority. The dock ladder could be nicer, but is still functional.The location is phenomenal though. A few minutes drive to town and tons of attractions was great. The walking path around Miner’s lake is one driveway over and was very convenient since we had dogs with us.Our group was raving about the place and already saying we should make staying here a tradition. We’re also considering bringing a family group here as well.

Summary: Beautiful place. Loved the location and the lake was so peaceful. Heard many loons and eagles because we believe there was an eagles nest nearby. I even scared a deer on accident. It was simply a wonderful stay. Thank you!
