The cabin is small and simple but all you need for a relaxing long weekend away. It was nice to rent the pontoon and get out on the lake. Balsam Lake is lovely.
Deborah is a great communicator and host!

My husband and I stayed with our 3 kids (21, 14, and 10)...the cabin was so cute and had everything we needed. We rented the pontoon boat and had such a great day on the lake, swimming and fishing. The fun room was great also, honestly everything was perfect! Debbie is a fantastic person quick to reply to messages and very accommodating. We will for sure come back again.

My husband and I and my two pups booked a 4 day weekend for one last summer hurrah 9/29 through 10/2. Property was as described, location was perfect, sunrises and sunsets were beautiful. It was very peaceful as no other cabins were occupied except our host Debbie! Thank you for a wonderful get away Debbie - your property was well-maintained and lovely for our needs.

The cabin and property exceeded expectations. Great location right on balsam lake. We had 4 young kids and there was plenty of room for everyone to be comfortable and enjoy a cabin experience. Debbie was great and handled everything we needed.

Cute and cozy cabin close to the lake with a front living room full of windows. We went in early October and it was cooler than normal so the cabin was a little chilly. The host already had a space heater running before we arrived. She checked on us a couple times to make sure we we’re staying warm. Our host was very friendly and takes great care of her properties.
