Very Pleased
The description of the property and the details listed were spot on. We were very pleased overall. The only advice would be to some additional bedding/blankets. That could support a group of eight. Thanks again!

Lazy Bear Den
My family and I stayed at Lazy Bear Den and absolutely loved it. The house was as described and had everything we needed. The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking, etc. There was nothing we needed that was not there. The property is beautiful and we loved all the wildlife. We especially enjoyed the cozy wood burning stove in the evenings! And my dog enjoyed frolicking in the snow in the back yard. I had a problem with the code for door lock when we initially arrived. I called the property owner who immediatly answered and helped us with code. I would highly recommend Lazy Bear Den. You won't be disappointed!

Great vacation spot
Nicely settled home in a quiet area. If lake fishing is your thing, there is one associated with the subdivision. Home is close to town of Bayfield. Conveniently located to get around the area. Lakes, rivers close by. Excellent things to do inside - play pool, foosball, games, etc. Recommend this location for your stay.
