This was our first time in the north woods looking to unplug and relax and this property delivered. Although it's 1.5 miles off the highway it really feels completely secluded. The property is completely lined with woods and about the only spot you can see the road is from the kitchen window, the rest of the property faces the woods/lake and feels very secluded.
We had everything we could ever need, the lake was prefect for swimming and we loved jumping off the dock and taking the kyacks around, and viewing the stars at night. While outside you could hear the occasional car driving by but the property sits down in a bit of a bowl so you don't get a lot of sound pollution, inside the house we could not hear any cars.
My only complaint is that the kitchen was pretty dark however we did the majority of our cooking on the Blackstone outside (I'm going to have to get one now) so it didn't matter too much. And this was one of the best stocked rentals we have ever seen. Crock pot, roaster, george forman, air fryer, plenty of bowls/platers, baking sheets, etc to service a large crowd, there was even muffin tins and a rolling pin.
There were plenty of board games and DVD's when you are done with the outside (make sure to bring bug spray) The walking paths were well maintained and good for a quick walk, the kids were disappointed that we did not get to see a bear in real life.
Thanks for the great memories.
