It was a great stay, not a busy area and access to shopping is about 30-40 minutes away. There are great places to eat and fun activities in town, as well as lots of local boat rentals if you want to sit out on the lake and enjoy.

We had a fun week at this lake house. The property is very nice. It's a private and secluded location. We really enjoyed the solitude. The view from the deck is fantastic. We would definitely consider renting this house again.

Remote Cabin in the Woods

The cabin was beautiful and full of amenities. There was even a basket of toys in a play area for our kids. We had a nice paddle on the kayaks and kept our pontoon at the dock. It's a hike into town. The beds were big, soft, and comfortable. The closets were big.

Moose lake stay

Your property offered something great for every age group. We had some fishermen, some chefs, some young teens and one invalid (me). We were all pleasantly surprised how convenient and how well we fit into the property. We had everything we needed to enjoy a relaxing vacation. We used everything available to us and played lots of pool.

Quiet & remote with beautiful lake views

He house was very clean and comfortable with many amenities-kayaks, row boat, pool table, foosball table, poker table, grill, fire pit, and a dock. There was so much to do even on a rainy day. Our only disappointment was that we have a bigger pontoon boat and the dock was not big enough for it. From the pictures it appeared we would be fine. Great stay!

Family Vacation

Property was clean and warmly decorated- very much a Northwoods vibe! The owner was responsive to questions prior to our stay. There were some nice amenities- kayaks, rowboat, games, toys, etc. All the kids, young and old, loved the lily pad and we enjoyed watching the sunsets from the dock! There was definitely enough room for our big family. The property was a little farther from Hayward than we would have liked & the Wi-Fi a bit slow, but overall it was quiet and relaxing!

Absolutely beautiful home on Moose Lake. Our family of three stayed along with friends with a family of five. Four kid’s ages 13-15 and there was plenty of room. We really enjoyed the garage/game room in the evenings and the trail’s on ATV during the day. Lots of beautiful trails and the lake was also a hit.
