This is a true up north lake cabin. Nothing fancy but comfortable. Beds were comfortable with plenty of blankets and towels. The host was very accommodating and friendly. Drawbacks: the bathroom is tiny! We had to sit on the toilet half sideways or our knees touched the wall. The shower was part of a bathtub about half the normal length but the actual shower provided good water pressure. The lack of any grab bars or handles or a nonslip mat made showering a little uncomfortable. The kitchen is almost nonexistent! Food preparation was difficult even for one person. The refrigerator was very small and stopped working on the second day. We had to dispose of a lot of food and were inconvenienced while dealing with the removal and the replacement the owner provided. Dawn was very easy to deal with and did compensate us for our inconvenience which made it a little easier to take. There are two private bedrooms. The trundle bed shown in the second living room is next to the dining table so it is not private. The lake is beautiful and you can literally throw a stone from the outdoor table into the lake. The presence of a private dock with a boat lift is what sold us on this location. It was a real being able to leave our boat in the water for entire stay.
Hospitality, generosity, and overall stay was top notch. Dawn and Rocky are incredible hosts and we look forward to coming back and creating more memories at this property!
A nice, clean cabin, with classic decorating touches. The double, large windows onto the lake have a great view. Great hosts. A single, small bathroom was our only drawback.
The house was great and provided everything we needed, the hosts Dawn and Rocky were great and very easy to communicate with. Definitely will be staying with them again when in the area!!
Peacefull, serene, relaxing. Comfortable stay with all the needed amenities. Hosts were warm and friendly. Make no mistake, youre staying next to full time resident owners, but they were great.
un comfortable
The entire backside of the property is windows overlooking the lake - what a lovely spot to sit and enjoy! Dawn could not have been easier to work with - she was quick to respond to any question I might have. The cabin is just what we needed - we rented the boat, did some fishing (there is a spot to clean fish on the side of the house), had a fire, ate outside overlooking the lake - we were only inside to sleep. The kitchen was well supplied, plenty of towels in the bathroom - there was even some beach towels situated by the back door.
The cabin was clean and full of accommodations and spectacular views of the lake. Dawn and Rocky were great hosts and tended to all of our needs. The area was super quiet and peaceful. The lake was full of fish. Caught some crappie, sunny, walleye, and bass. Definite must stay again.
Property is exactly as listed. Very clean, great view from the living room. The property owners are fast to respond to any needs, and were great to work with. The water, and beach are literally steps from the front door. If we were ever in the area again, we would definitely come back here.
We had a lovely stay at this cabin! Dawn was friendly and communicative as a host. The house was clean, and had beautifully large windows that overlooked the lake. It was a fantastic view! Comfortable couches for lounging, fast wifi, and an enjoyable grassy area right outside the door for the kids to run around and play. We especially loved the little beach area and that we could use the hostâs lilypad, lifejackets, and other outdoor items. Nearby in town we found some really fun playgrounds for the kids and a yummy ice cream shop. We would 100% stay here again!
We had a great vacation on Big Birch Lake. The cabin was clean and had what we needed. Everything from check in to check out went smoothly. A great place for an outdoor vacation, making memories at the lake!!
What a relaxing stay! The cabin is just as it advertised. It had everything you needed to have a great stay. The owners next door were so kind and accommodating. We loved it!
We walked into this cabin and the first words out of my mouth were âWOW!â The scenery cannot be beat, our hosts were incredibly helpful and kind, and the cabin quickly felt like a second home. Anyone who stays here will never want to leave the tranquility and peace that being here will bring you.
Our family had an amazing vacation at this property. The owners went above and beyond and everything was great. I would highly recommend staying at this location/rental if you are looking for chill, relaxation, and a fun beach area and memories to be made with your family!
Dawn was SUPER helpful and accommodating. The View from those windows in the cabin is UNBEATABLE. The beds were more comfortable than mine at home. Lots of antiques and historical decor really made it feel like stepping back in time, and yet every modern convenience is there.The lake has some good hot spots for fishing and many boat ramps for launching. Recomend driving your boat to the other side of the lake and docking for a meal and drinks at the Historical Rock Tavern. Also, if you are fishing get your bait in Sauk Center at Fletchers bait shop, Mr. Fletcher is very knowledgeable. Over all it was a great place with hosts who really care. We WILL be back!
The cabin does have a dock and a fishing cleaning table with water hose. It does have a fire stick for TV etc. Dawn is the host with Rocky her husband and they were very helpful in all things. The fire pit was supplied with all the wood you wanted.
The house was well furnished and decorated so quaintly. Even though there's a breezeway that attaches the rental to the owner's home, it was very private; basically just like any next door neighbor. The hosts were very hospitable and available, but not intrusive at all. The lakeside setting was peaceful and the big windows have a stunning view of sunsets!
