Jul 21, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, location Disliked: Check-in #### Zac Efron entry mirror Wonderful location, but there were some things that could be improved. For one, the rental service gave us the wrong entry key code, and because it’s a service, it was a multi-step process to get to the person that could actually help us. And property manager not overly concerned that we had the wrong code. Also, wifi was very lacking in service. The cabin was clean, bedding and towels very nice. The cabin itself was awkwardly laid out but very spacious kitchen. The lake access was great with electricity near the pier. Could have some yard games. Shared deck and fire pit worked out great. Fun neighbors. Checkout process simple.Lastly, absolutely found the Zac Efron mural mirror in entry hilarious. Maybe a bit out of place. Would stay again but nightly rate a bit a high for this cabin. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/f230e6c4-1e44-43b8-9a36-572f57a55f9b-1753124905131.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Leslie H.

Dec 19, 2023 #### Nice but beware This place seemed to be a perfect fit for what we were looking for. We were in the area to do some ice fishing and needed a simple rental to lay our heads and a shower. The pictures looked great. Dealing with Vacasa was a little bit of a challenge. I asked for an early check-in and was told that the housekeeper would text me when it was ready. The unit wasn’t rented the night before. I never did received that text but we went straight to fishing instead. When we did get to our rental, we went to the unit in the picture of this listing. After a call to Vacasa to say that the code didn’t work, we came to find out that it was the unit next door. So the picture of this listing is incorrectly the unit A. The inside of the unit was very clean and welcoming. Again, we looking for nothing more than a couple beds, bathroom, and a shower. My minuscule complaints would be Vacasa for poor communication and false advertising. The unit’s floors were pitched to the side making it dizzying. Finally, the shower sprayer holder was broken and wouldn’t stay up. Other than that, cute unit, would stay again. ##### Scott S. Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Susan M.
