Quiet, secluded, comfortable Northwoods getaway

Welcome to Birch Cove Cabin!

This beautiful cabin home features a gas fireplace (Heat n' Glo), lofted bedroom with king-sized bed, walk-out lower level family room, screened porch and elevated deck overlooking the 27 acre lake. On the main floor: full bath, living room, dining area and kitchen.

Located at the end of the road, you are surrounded by 10 acres of wooded property on this peaceful lake, with over 400 feet of shoreline. With westward facing lakefront views, there is an amazing view all year.

We have made a few adjustments to address Covid-19 concerns during the pandemic.
- We continue to thoroughly clean between guests, using approved products
- We pay special attention to high-touch areas such as door knobs, handles, and light switches, among others.
- We ask guests to check-in after 4:00 in order to more thoroughly clean between guests.
- We have added additional hand sanitizing products and virucidal wipes for guest use in the cabin.
- We have recently installed a washer and new dishwasher to ensure that linens, dishes, utensils and other "shared items" are appropriately cleaned and sanitized between guests.

Updates:
- A growler from the Angry Minnow (www.angryminnow.com), local brewery, is available in the kitchen for your use. Stop by the AM for a bite and a brew, and bring some back to the cabin to enjoy around the fireplace or fire pit. Jim recommends the River Pig Pale Ale, but you can sample anything that catches your fancy.
- Doing any shopping at the MarketPlace? Use Jim's phone number at checkout to get a discount on qualifying items. AND, if you are getting gas at the neighboring Holiday gas station, use the same number to redeem any available per-gallon-discounts. If they're available, they're yours!

Winter advisory (November-May when there is snow): we recommend that you have front wheel or all wheel drive, as Wolf Lane can get icy. While it is not imperative, it may he helpful. Our plow service is excellent (plowed with 4" or more of snow), and sanding is available if there is significant ice.

Six guests can be accommodated by the king bed (loft) and two pull-out queen sofa sleepers: one each in the living room and family room (which doubles as a bedroom). And these aren't your grandparents' pull-out beds! From Room & Board, both sofa sleepers have premium, high-resiliency foam mattress with a quilted cotton cover for superior comfort with no bars or springs. For extra guests (up to eight guests total) there is ample room to utilize the inflatable queen mattress in the loft or in the family room. There is one full bathroom on the main floor, and a 3/4 bath off the family room, along with full laundry facilities and room for equipment/luggage storage.

The kitchen is well-stocked and supplied with pots, pans, cooking utensils, toaster, microwave, service for eight (both indoor and outdoor dishes for an impromptu picnic), and plenty of mugs, wine glasses, beer glasses and tumblers for your beverages.

The deck and enclosed porch are furnished with seating for 6-8, along with a propane grill. There is a fire pit and stacked firewood between the cabin and the lake shore, and the area has been carefully cleared to maximize the view of the lake while maintaining the privacy and natural beauty that attracted us to the area. Landscaping efforts are yet underway!

Take a walk along the moss-covered path in the summer, through the leaves of the oak, serviceberry and birch trees in all their autumn glory, along the snow-covered woods in winter, and in the spring, over the emerging flora of the Northwoods. Listen for bullfrogs, songbirds, owls and loons. Watch for wildlife: Sightings of bear, deer, bobcats, and turkeys aren’t unusual, and enjoy the peace and quiet of this private lake from the deck, hammock, lawn or dock.

Your Wisconsin retreat is 10 miles from downtown Hayward, WI and 5.8 miles from Springbrook center.

As guests remark, what is described is exactly what you’ll find. We offer you clean, comfortable accommodations, a quiet lakefront location, and an invitation to make yourself at home and enjoy the sights, sounds and peacefulness of the Northwoods.

Lastly but not leastly, you and your pets are very welcome with just a few reminders: the beds and furniture are for our human guests. If your furry family members are traveling with you, please note that in your reservation, and bring appropriate bedding for your pets. We are glad to supply treats, dog wipes, towels for our non-human friends, and extra food and water bowels if you need them. We ask that you leave the cabin as you found it, and clean up any accidents along the way. We understand that they happen, and there are ample items in the laundry room to use as needed: enzyme cleaners/sprays, towels for cleaning, and a bucket if is a big job! Many, many thanks.

Beautiful, Private Cabin in the Woods
Absolutely loved this cabin. Exactly as described. Very clean, comfortable and has all the amenities you need for a vacation stay. We loved the views, the privacy and quiet of the property. Plenty of room for people and pups to roam. The recommendation of AWD/4WD during snowy/muddy months is no joke! We’d love to come back during summer to enjoy the kayak, hammock and screen porch. Thanks for sharing this gem!!

A lovely place to rest and recharge
This cabin was worth the drive! The décor is thoughtful, the process to check in and out was seamless, the bed was comfortable and we had a wonderful time. You can’t beat being right on the water and with a fireplace. Would absolutely rent again!

Exceeded Expectations!
The cabin's photos and description do not do it justice. This is a fabulous place to stay, and the owner(s) really did think of everything to make it a comfortable place to stay (and work) for both humans and dogs alike! We would certainly stay again, and really appreciate the hospitality.
