Summer Family Vacation

We absolutely loved our stay! The property is beautiful and perfect for a family vacation. We enjoyed being able to sit together at the large kitchen table. Everything you need or could think of needing was available. The kids loved the bowling, kayaks, toys, and beach. We hope to stay a full week next year! Thank you for the perfect multigeneration family vacation.

We had a wonderful time spending Labor Day weekend here with the family. We’ve stayed all around Wisconsin, and this property is our absolute favorite!The common area is so spacious and well designed to spend time together. But the outdoors are just out of this world! There was so much forest to explore, we even went mushroom foraging. Fishing was great here too and the lake is gorgeous. Thank you to the property owners for having so many water activities available. We loved being able to kayak around the lake.Overall this property is gorgeous, clean and straightforward to access. Thank you for an unforgettable stay!

Great house and property for our party of six. We were in the area for work. Worked all day, and fished all evening. Caught a bunch of fish, mostly walleye. I would definitely recommend if you are looking for a quality place on a lake!
