The Perfect Getaway!
This was my family's second time staying here because it was just so perfect for us!! The kitchen is fully stocked with everything we needed to cook and eat our meals. Our favorite part of the home is hands down the screened in porch. We eat every meal out there, play games, and just relax. The staff is FABULOUS and is quick to respond to any questions. I highly recommend staying here!!

Perfect Retreat Spot
Family stayed over Thanksgiving, with a fantastic snowfall. We were grateful for the garage for the car and the nice stash of firewood! Cosy, comfortable and relaxing couple of days!

This property was as advertised and communication with the host was excellent. It was nice having a boat to rent from the house with a 115hp motor. I would like to call out there is no marina on the 3 lakes you have access too, so to refuel the boat you will need to utilize the gas cans in the garage. They have 8 kayaks at the house which was great so the whole family could go if they wanted to. Overall we had a great time and would recommend this location to others.

Great Stay!
Love this property! The large screened in porch that faces the lake is perfect for relaxing. The lawn out to the lake is also very level making it easier to navigate. The interior was spacious enough for our group, but also seemed very cozy. Definately will be back!

Excellent stay!
This place is a complete gem! The porch alone warrants a 5-star review, but the whole place is wonderful. The yard is great for lawn games and toddler exploration, the house is easy for people who can't navigate stairs, and the upstairs is terrific for those of us who want to retreat for a bit (or longer). Just perfection! Thanks for sharing this space with us!

Amazing property!!!!
We came up to ride the bike paths and hike with our dog. This property was perfect! It has a flat backyard for our pup to play ball on, no stairs to the pier and a gorgeous screened in porch we sat on every night as it was cooler the week we were there. It was very clean and comfy, and the owners/management team were readily available. It was a fantastic week!Thank you!Sara B

North Star Retreat
We’ve rented many cabins over the years and this one is a standout! Comfy beds, well stocked kitchen, great seating in living area and on large screened in porch, plenty of dining and game playing space, and everything in working order was so appreciated. Big winds and down pouring rain didn’t keep us from enjoying every minute! We even enough fish for one meal! Thanks so much for keeping your rental cottage pristine!

Excellent Property
The property was as clean as any we have stayed in. The home is well-appointed with all the essentials. The furniture was solid and comfortable. Having use of the garage was a huge bonus, as we were able to park our boat in there, (away from the mosquitos) while we prepped it for the water. We caught a 34" Muskie casting off the dock. The screen porch is a great place to hang out with the family on rainy days. We will be re-booking this property again!

Had a blast at North Star retreat
My customers and I very much enjoy this house. We have friends that live on this driveway/road so it was very easy to connect with them. The house was very accommodating, the kitchen was great for late night conversations and early morning story telling. My only complaint was that the house is set up for couples. 3 bedrooms 3 couples. We had 4 guys so one of us had to sleep on the couch. Still one of the best houses I have used.

Perfect!
The house had everything we needed and was exceptionally clean!! Very comfortable beds and furniture! We had an issue with the furnace the first day and someone came out right away and it was fixed by the next day...it was not an issue at all and gave us a good reason to use the fireplace. Enjoyed the kayaks and fishing. Went to Porcupine Mountain to hike, see Lake in the Clouds, waterfalls and Lake Superior. Rode awesome Winman mtb trails twice and the Vilas County paved trail. Dixie's has wonderful coffee and we had a good dinner at Aqualand Ale House, otherwise the kitchen was well-supplied with all the cooking equipment we needed. We would definitely stay again!

Awesome Retreat
Just a wonderful property that has new appliances, all the kitchen supplies you would need to prepare a gourmet meal, and most importantly great bedding that allows one to have a well rested sleep!
