This cabin was beautiful and perfect size for our group of 8. We really enjoyed our stay, close to store but felt like you were in the middle of nowhere. It snowed while we were there and made it feel magical. I highly recommend this place.

Beautiful!

We all enjoyed our stay at "a Wispful Dream". The location was perfect for our needs. We felt secluded in the woods but we were close to the lake and to stores. The interior was beautiful and nicely equipped. We had plenty of room and it was an enjoyable stay.
