Quiet,several boat options,shady walking roads , good lake view. The cottage is workable. Electical outlet in kitchen for microwave and coffee maker needs replaced. Cookware needs evaluated as Teflon is severely scratched .Older sections of dock need updated.
Adorable, clean, rustic cabin with beautiful & woodsy lake view & everything you need for a simple laid-back getaway. Have stayed here several times & love it each & every time
I am biased as this cabin was in my family growing up and so I have a lot of nostalgia that colors my opinions i'm sure, but the Wasilks have done a great job with this place and it is a perfect getaway for anyone who values quiet and a rustic, timeless feel.
We thoroughly enjoyed the quaint charm of the cabin and the nights by the fire pit. Wish the fishing was a little better, but the property was terrific!
third stay at BRC - THIS time for eleven days. Very quiet and relaxing. Even though it was early October the water was warm and crystal clear. Enjoyed watching the resident mink hunting along shoreline. The view, starlit nites and owner supplied firewood was very nice. Family, who lives in Gaylord, visited several times and had a great time. Thank you Wasilks for sharing this special place!
This is our second year staying here. It's just beautiful in the fall. We love the peace and quiet and that we can bring our dogs. We plan on coming again next year.
The owner needs to pay closer attention to the property. Notes were not read about things not working and cleaning was superficial, although good enough on that level. Very cozy place, on the water, wifi worked. Had a good time.
We had a very relaxing time at this cabin! It was so nice to disconnect and relax by the water and bonfire. Our pup had a blast swimming in the lake. Great location, we would stay here again!
We had the best time for a long weekend getaway! Brought some floaties to swim in the lake! The dogs loved the sandy beach! Played some corn hole during the day and campfires at night. Surprisingly the cabin stayed cool during the 80+ degree weather. Although we didn't stay inside very often, it was very comfortable. Just what we needed for some relaxation!
This was our second stay. We've already booked for next summer. This is reminiscent of the cabin cottage i stayed in as a kid. No frills. Total cozy comfort. Northern Michigan weather changes by the minute sometimes. We got lucky with 2 days of hot sun, one cloudy and one rainy, chilly day. Just what you'd expect at the Lake! Bed totally comfortable; futon not so much,lol. 1940's fridge lacks freezer space. Fridge compartment fine. Grocery store 2 miles away; perfectly convenient if you forgot to bring something. Paddling in kayak in the early hours before water got choppy was heaven. Had no luck fishing off the dock until the last night (of course!) Caught a 2.5' pike on a small lure casting off the dock towards the outer edge of neighbors lily pad patch. Perfect end to wonderful 4 day stay.
This place was such a hidden gem. The dogs loved the water and the perfect little beach. The cabin had a mountain feel to it. Perfect spot to go and unwind for a few days. I took my wife and the dogs here for her 40th bday to relax and spend time with our dogs. Mission accomplished!! Kim was great to work with and fit us in at the last minute.
One of our favorite places to stay â€ïž - cute, cozy, & clean cabin on the lake surrounded by woods. So peaceful!! Morning coffee on the porch with a good book or a peaceful kayak ride on the lake. Lots of good hiking nearby. Canât wait to return again!
This wonderful rustic cabin, built in the 1930s (by my grandfather and great-father), transports me back in time to my childhood, where I spent many summers playing in the lake, fishing, and running through the woods with my siblings. Still has most of the rustic touches that I remember from my childhood, and I think others who appreciate old things and rustic accomodations will enjoy this place as well!
This was exactly what were looking for. My wife and I and our 4 children(ages 19, 17, 7, and 1yr old) all had a great time. The cabin is a great mix of rustic with the right amenities. The private beach area, kayaks, and row boat were awesome for us to enjoy the lake, and we caught quite a few fish right from the dock. We took day trips to Hartwick Pines and Gaylord and enjoyed the home town feel of Lewiston for shopping and eating. The cabin was very clean and well stocked, and the sand beach had been raked before we arrived, all the details that show that a host cares about your stay had been attended to. Great cabin and property, great lake, great experience!
