Be aware during this season that it does rain a bit and the many holes that are on the dirt road to the cabin can be filled with water quickly and for at least 2 days after. Depending on the vehicle, you may have to cross over to other road at times to avoid getting stuck.

Excellent location and property away from it all! The lakefront is extensive with wide open views. The dock is great. Bed is hard but bringing a mattress pad or additional comforter easily remedies this little drawback. The property is clean and well maintained. We look forward to our next visit in October.

The cabin was beautiful but the cleaning crew do not do a good job at cleaning after each visitor. Some maintenance need to be done to the cabin like fixing the fan above the kitchen, fixing the light under the microwave, one of the pull out couches is broken and multiple light bulbs were out. I would have felt safer if there was a bolt that I can lock from the inside when I was sleeping since every visitor uses the same key I felt a bit unsafe with the fact that there was not a latch or an inside lock I could use while me and my family were sleeping. One last thing is that on the paperwork that I received when I made my reservation it said that there were 2 queen size beds and 4 twin beds. When I arrived at the cabin there were 1 queen size bed, 4 twin size beds and 2 pull out couches. The Pioneer village was a great little place to go and visit. The springs are amazing.

The cabin was very nice and spacious. It had everything to cook light meals. So relaxing on the lake. We brought our small boat. The road into the cabin is very narrow and winding, but we made it through with a ram 3500 dually and a 17ft skiff. Word of caution if you are going to the cabin during hunting season maybe don't go hiking around the cabin. We could hear dogs running many of the days we were there. Others wise the lake and the cabin were very relaxing.

You, nature and nothing else!
Cabin has all modern amenities (fully equipped kitchen, bathroom, kayak, life jackets,fire woods, fire pit).
It comfortably sleeps 10 people, you just need to bring bedsheets, pillows blankets and towels, that's it!
"Unfortunately" we were getting full internet (T-mobile), so that also kept kids occupied.
Can't wait to go back there again, and again, and again!!!
