It was a quite disappointing trip, and we were pretty dissatisfied with the accommodations, which is why we left a day early. Some of the items that we were disappointed with:
1)The cabin wasn’t particularly tidy or clean--I found multiple cobwebs on doorframes and in windows, the coffee pot had mold growing in the water reservoir, there was a distinct funky odor in the basement, empty beer cans were littered over the pontoon boat
2)The listing stated a dishwasher was available...I did not see one on site
3) I felt a little bit deceived by your listing noting kayaking and paddleboarding, expecting to have provisions for these activities available on site. I went back and re-read your listing, and I suppose it could be read either way, but it certainly wasn’t clear
4) The biggest disappointment was the inability to swim on site. The lake was so weedy I couldn’t even pull a crankbait through it without getting hung up every cast. I went back and looked at the listing, and it specifically noted “taking a dip in the lake from the private dock”. I suppose it’s technically possible, but it wasn’t appealing. One saving grace of all the weeds was that there were plenty of small panfish.
Following up with the property manager also did little, as the listing description has not been updated, and I was told that the weedy area is due to "dynamic characteristics of WI lakes".
Given the above, I cannot recommend either this cabin, nor any Courtney Brunner managed site.
