About this property

Hidden Lakeside Retreat! Camper + Bunkhouse in Charming Sawyer.

Unwind in Sawyer at this pleasant campground. Guests enjoy a peaceful setting perfect for relaxing and reconnecting with nature. The site includes a cozy camper that sleeps 6 people comfortably, a nice boat launch, kayaks, and a cute little bonus bunkhouse making it an excellent choice for a simple getaway. Whether you’re here to explore or just unwind, this spot offers a calm retreat from the everyday.

Couple things to mention. The bunkhouse has power but no running water. It has one full size bed in the back and a comfy couch in the living room area. There is also a mini fridge in there as well.

The front yard is very spacious and perfect for playing yard games. This lake lot is located on a peaceful dead end road which makes it great for walks with the fam!

Fishing has been a hit or miss for us here. One day we won’t have a bite, the next day my son will catch a 13” crappie right off the dock. My boys have also caught nice sunnies (even a 10” one), jumbo perch (caught a 12” jumbo), and some northerns. I’m looking forward to hearing what everyone else catches here!

This really is such a private and peaceful lake. We really hope you enjoy this property as much as we do! We have big plans next year on renovating the bunkhouse and making a nice sandy beach area as well. We’re even thinking about building a cabin here in the near future.

We look forward to welcoming you to our place.

Kolten is a great VRBO host, he’s very quick to respond to messages, and caring in that he wanted to make sure we had everything we needed for the stay. My boyfriend and I stayed in the camper with our dog, and the area was perfect for relaxing and connecting with nature. They have a beautiful, newly built deck that we spent the nights sitting at and playing cards while enjoying the stars. The property is on a small lake which had amazing views, and we also used the kayaks provided to explore the area further. The camper itself was well stocked with cooking items, and a snack basket, while also being very clean. Overall, I would recommend the stay for anyone looking for something cozy and private.
