Fall Break Getaway

We had a wonderful stay! Kelsey did a fantastic job communicating everything. The cabin was just as described, plus many west facing windows overlooking the lake for gorgeous sunsets over the fall colors. Easy drive from Minneapolis. We hope to return in the summer to enjoy the water.

Sunset Cabin time

The Sunset cabin worked perfect for our group. The kitchen is very well stocked. The view of the lake is very restful both from inside and from outside. The dock and water provided lots of fun for the kids, and the fishing was very good. The response to any question was immediate and we felt well cared for.

Great place to stay!

We went as a family and everyone had a great time! Fishing on the boat and off the dock gave us lots of great stories! The campfire was nice to roast hot dogs and smores! The boat deck is wonderful for watching sunsets and drinking coffee in the morning! The neighbor was very friendly and made us feel welcomed. Sauna looks inviting but never made time to use it. The street is a dead end in both directions which made it safe for walks with the kids. I wish we would of brought scooters or bikes, roads are nicely paved. The location of the cabin on the lake was nice for our family kayakers, not too much boat traffic. Definately going back next year!

Clean, comfy and spacious!

This property was a great fit for us. Interesting floor plan that gave 7 people all the space needed inside and out. Beautiful view of the lake! New dock accommodated the two boats that we brought. We made full use of the spacious deck and fireplace. Beds were comfy. We were there for a full week, so it was really a nice touch to have a washer and dryer available to us. Kitchen was fully equipped with everything you need. We felt very fortunate to have had 6 days of beautiful weather and the fishing was super. Everybody went home with a full two-day limit of fish. We will be back! Dan and Karla Klinkhammer

Great views of lake and sunset, clean, well stocked, good layout of cabin

The cabin was a great layout for my family. My family consisted of 3 couples, my mother and my daughter. The activity room that has the futon works as a separate room as it has french doors that close off but still has access to the bathroom that is a "jack/jill style" that can be accessed from one of the bedrooms. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking pots, cutlery, plates, toaster, and various other items. Michele called me to let me know that per WI rental rules we needed to bring all items that were to be ingested including sugar, cooking oils, salt/pepper etc. This was great info prior to arrival so we could pack accordingly as we prepared all meals there. The grill they provided was really nice as well. There were extra linens for the futon. All the bedding looked new and there were plenty of towels. Two small things that could be improved and are easily solvable are: 1) Faster response time on communication 2) Making a binder that includes essential information on cabin, check-out requirements (stripping sheets etc), and helpful insider tips in the area (Jonzy's if you forget bare essentials) Today with cellphones, I'm used to responses to be within a minimum of 48 hours from my experience of other owners. Currently Michele's daughter's number is on the listing and so it was slow to get responses. I would advise the decision maker to be the listed. Once I got Michele's direct line it was very quick responses. Having the binder just enables renters to be able to know in advance of check-out what is required. I texted Michele and it was bare minimum of what needed to be done which was nice but just easier to have in book. Overall a very pleasurable experience and the two call-outs can be very easily improved.

Balsam Lake Perfect location!

This location is amazing! Balsam Lake is perfect for boating, tubing, jet skiing, kayaking, paddle boarding, fishing. We caught lots of fish right off of the dock. Brought a boat and a watercraft and they both easily fit on the dock. In the evening, the fire pit was great for a sunset bonfire and s’mores and in the am the deck above the boathouse was perfect for watching the loons. Wow! We are hoping to get back there next year!! The cabin was very clean and cozy!

Great Cabin for Making Memories

We wanted a cabin to make more family memories with our kids and grandkids and the cabin had all we needed to do just that! The views from the new boat deck and house deck are beautiful. The steps off of the dock for the grand kids to swim worked just great. Lots of room to gather together or the kids to have their own space and TV! This cabin sure meet our needs! Comfy with beautiful views!

Family fun at the lake

This lake home exceeded our expectations. There was plenty of areas for separation both inside and out. We started our mornings on the boathouse deck and ended the afternoons playing games on the house deck. Several evenings we had a fire in the fire pit with wood that was cut and split for our use.
