Idyllic Wisconsin Lake Front Cabin on Fabulous Cisco Chain

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice and quiet property. The cabin is very well taken care of. Spent a weekend at the cabin and it was the perfect spot for a little getaway, just make sure to bring plenty of bug spray!"

Brand New Secluded Cabins in Arbor Vitae, WI

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great mother/daughter long weekend up north and this cabin was an absolute delight to stay in! The location is fantastic, so clean, gorgeous spread out property and fantastic fire pit. We enjoyed every minute at this cabin. So clean and cozy and modern! Had absolutely everything we needed and more. Lots of deer roaming about, bald eagles and more. Would definitely recommend this stay for anyone looking for a relaxing getaway in the north woods. Hope to return soon!!"

Stunning 180 degree views from Gresham Retreat's 520 ft of private lakefront

10/10 Excellent

"Pure magic... a place like no other. I cannot say enough about my experience here. It is worth every penny for the peaceful serenity that is Greshem Retreat. It truly is a retreat in every sense. The property is secluded and exactly as described in the listing. The hosts are amazing and responded within minutes any time I had a question. It is evident they aren't in it for the money and genuinely want guests to have the best experience possible. Book this today.. you will not regret it. I've already rebooked my next stay."

Lakefront one bedroom cabin with private dock

6/10 Okay

"The area is nice and the place was fine. Very rustic cabin in a beautiful setting. It was good value for the price. There seemed to be a miscommunication with the listing as it clearly showed boats and the dock in the photos and the listing said outside amenities was “boat” but when I asked the host she said it was a private dock and private boat launch. I’m not sure what this meant. I also had to ask for details like what to do with the garbage. This kind of stuff should be in a welcome package or email. Overall a nice stay with a few small hiccups. "

Lakefront two Bedroom Cabin With Private Dock

6/10 Okay

"I was nervous about booking this property because of some of the poor reviews. But I booked anyways because the location was right for our needs. Let me start by saying a don’t mind “rustic accommodations” but this place lacked care. There was trash from other guests in the fire pit, the yard and a bucket on the porch with waste. Upon entry it was clean, but as you go in there is a significant slope to the rear of the home, the linoleum is rippled, the porch is uneven with warped and has rotting boards that presented a serious trip and slip hazard. At the rear of the home is the bathroom. The shower required approximately 45 minutes between showers because of standing water build up. There were ample towels but it was my perception that they were there because the hosts are aware of the problem and this is their idea of a fix for now. I was travelling with my mother who is very spry but nearly 70 and I have several safety concerns. Additionally, there is no porch light, some of the lights in the home were burnt out and there was a lack of basic supplies like trash bags. When we attempted to follow the limited check out instructions and take out the trash, we found that it was pad locked shut. The neighbors informed us it was closed for the season, they agreed to take care of the trash for us. Lastly, my family that was camped nearby, came to fish in the afternoon, upon arrival we found that midway through our stay they pulled our dock without notice. "
