Perfect Little Cottage
I wish I could give a rating of 10 and wasn’t limited to 5 stars! The house itself is immaculate and well stocked for all of your needs! You can easily sleep 6 comfortably using the air mattress in the living area while still having use of the room (this trip was 2 of us but we are a big family so I was scoping it out). There is ample parking and the frontage is well maintained as well. The decking outside with seating is great as well as the landings on your way down the stairs. The railings and steps are well maintained and we had no reservations traversing them. We had such a wonderful, peaceful time and cannot wait to come back! I have been coming to this lake for over 35 years and it’s one of the best experiences I’ve had. Owners are easily accessible and helpful. There is a helpful note to let you know not only property expectations but also lake rules and quiet times for the area. The welcome gift was awesome too! We will be back for sure!

Lake view house
Extremely peaceful setting in the woods with a spectacular view of a beautiful lake. We were here in October for salmon fishing nearby. I am sure this is a fantastic place to be in the summer. The host was very accommodating to our needs. An awesome property and host.

Everything was Excellent
Friends and I rented this cabin for the weekend, and it was amazing! The inside has been updated and it’s really clean. Outside you have five decks with great views, and you’re surrounded by trees. We grilled food, went kayaking, went swimming, this property has it all. Jodi was very responsive, even though we really didn’t need anything. I highly recommend this place and we will definitely be back next year!

The property and house were perfect. We rented their ponton boat to go fishing and boat riding. Boat was great the lake was bigger than we thought it would be. We will book again next year for sure. Thank you again.

Perfect lakefront getaway.
The rental was pristine and the owner attentive and accommodating. All my questions were answered in a timely manner and the owners did everything they could to enhance our stay. Highlights included a spacious deck with a fireplace, elderly-friendly stairs to the water, and a sun-soaked dock with ample seating. We docked our boat with ease and enjoyed the vast 1000-acre lake, ideal for swimming, water sports, and cruising. Overall, 10/10 experience and I’d happily rent this property again in the future.

Stop your search and just book this one!
What a wonderful place to stay for a few days while we explored the Sleeping Dunes area. Immaculate home on a beautiful lake setting – it just couldn’t have been nicer for our group. We ate breakfast and dinner here each day and found that the kitchen had everything we needed to cook meals. The home has been newly remodelled so everything top to bottom is new, clean, and gorgeous. Jodi responded to my questions beforehand immediately so that I could prepare for our trip and was kind enough even to leave a load of firewood, fixings for s’more’s for the campfire, and brought over fresh donuts our first morning there. Very attentive and exceptional host! My husband and I were travelling with visitors from Texas for this holiday and I wanted to really show off the Midwest – staying here was just an added bonus. I hadn’t anticipated that our hosts would really show them what “Midwest nice“ is all about. Wonderful home and wonderful hosts! Thank you. 😊

Big Star Lake
This cabin is located in a BEAUTIFUL setting! It is tastefully decorated and Jodi is fantastic to work with! She informed us before our trip about the misunderstanding with the advertisement regarding the number of bedrooms (there are only 2, but there is an air mattress that can be used in the living room for a 3rd bed) and was always quick to respond to any messages I sent. We loved the welcoming gift of ingredients to make s’mores — yum! When we went to use the paddle boat, it had filled with water from the storm the day before. We couldn’t find the drain plug and tried our best to empty it by hand, but we’re unsuccessful. So we just used the row boat and kayak. Life vests are provided if you need one. Overall we enjoyed our stay on Big Star Lake:)

Great property
We really enjoyed our week stay at this property. We saw a Bald Eagle fishing in the lake. The decking that goes to the lake is magnificent. The decking at the lake is huge and very comfortable. The house is modern and clean. We have rented a number of vacation rentals over the years and I would rate this as one of the better ones.
