The chalet was very comfortable and clean.nice to have a bathroom for each bedroom. Its dog friendly, but no smell or indication that dogs have been there. The view was fabulous! Plenty of plush towels and bathroom amenities. Few additions would be nice, a Keurig coffee maker, foil/saran wrap/few baggies in the kitchen. Also, our king bed had no mattress cover. Back Porch needed swept off. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

The home was very clean. If you want to write a book and relax this place is great, if you come with a boat to use the lake go elsewhere, try a local resort.

Great place to stay

We really enjoyed our time at the cabin. It was perfect for our family of 3. My son decided to make a “gaming room” out of the extra bedroom and loved having his own bathroom! We had everything we needed for our stay. It was our first time in the Northwoods and the location was perfect. It was short drives to get to all the surrounding towns. It was also on a quiet street and we loved seeing all the deer and turkeys on the drive to and from the house. Overall, would highly recommend this cabin!

Beautiful House

The house felt warm and homey. Kitchen had everything we needed to make dinner. Loved that we could see the lake from the living room, great fire pit, if it was warmer I would have love to sit on the big porch on the back of the house and have my morning coffee. Can’t wait to come back!

Short and sweet January getaway

This was our first time staying at this property. It's very nice! The bedrooms are all pretty big- especially the upstairs one. Everything was very clean. It is pretty far back from highway 70, so it's very quiet. It's right on Little Saint Germain lake. Lots of birds and wildlife around. We were greeted by a deer in the driveway upon arrival! We look forward to staying here again!

Beautiful Location

The lot is beautiful, and the view is wonderful. The deck and fire pit are great features. The beds are comfortable and the bedrooms and to of the bathrooms are spacious. The kitchen is very functional. There is not a lot of common space. Would not recommend for a group of more than 2-3 if you plan to spend time hanging out at the cabin.

Cabin review

Well, when we arrived in the evening, we didn’t realize that we would be bombarded by sandflies which were all over. The cabin was nice, but the furniture in the living room was very uncomfortable. Also, the outside of the cabin on the deck was fairly dirty as were the windows. The path down to the boat dock was very treacherous and that is something you might wanna look at improving. Otherwise, the cabin was fine.
