Hayward, Wisconsin
A beautiful year round, all season log cabin on private peninsula with over 900 feet of lake shore on pristine spring-fed "Clear Lake", stocked with many varieties of fish and speed motor-boating limited to four hours per day. Has great ice-fishing and snowmobilers welcome as well with full view of entire lake from cabin for easy monitoring of family and friends. There's an aerial video of property in photo section. Cabin has 4 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms and sleeps 12-17 easily in 8 beds, folding mattress cot and convertible sofa , with all linen and towels provided. All amenities listed including fully equipped kitchen, wireless internet with WiFi, Satellite TV with local programming, oared fishing boat, canoe and paddle-boat. Outdoor deck, gas grill with propane provided and outdoor fire pit. Lower floor features regulation Brunswick pool table, electric piano, 8-position felt card table and many books and board games available for rainy days.
The property and house is beautiful and described well. We had 8 adults and 3 small children and we had plenty of room for everyone. The decent size dining room table hosted card games and the pool table in the basement was super fun. The kitchen is well equipped with dishes, utensils, pots & pans, etc. However, there were only 2 kitchen towels and no wash clothes (luckily we brought our own after reading the previous reviews). There was one bath towel per person, which was fine for our family because we brought our own large beach towels for the water fun. The water is very clear, and even though there are weeds in the shallow area, they are clean weeds...not like the green algae stuff in southern Minnesota. The paddle boat was fun and clean. There was only one canoe paddle so we used an oar from the row boat. We just appreciated that they offered water craft at all. We only have one complaint and it's really more of a concern. The bottom stair going down to the dock is broken. I was the first one to step on it. I stumbled on the step, but was able to recover my balance. Luckily I went in front of my 81 year old mother. I don't think she would have been able to catch herself, in which case this would be a very different review.
A group of 4 couples stayed for 3 nights. Enjoyed the grounds, fire ring, daily walks, frequent deer sightings, playing pool and shared spaces.
The property is gorgeous and the house itself is spacious and has plenty of sleeping spots. The land is very private with only a small link preventing this from being an island. Great views on a quiet lake.
The location is beautiful and private. The house is very comfortable and well stocked. It accommodated our group of 9 very comfortably. We brought a trolling motor to use on the stated aluminum boat that was supposed to be available but quickly found it had a leak in it and was not usable. The last steps to dock are not safe and need repair. The whole dock was very shaky. Overall, we had a great stay due to location and beautiful house!
Overall a positive experience. The property is lovely, with its wooded location and view of the lake. The house could use some modernization, the steps to the pier need repair esp. at the bottom, but we very much appreciated the deck. Fishing off the pier was fun for the youngsters, as was “discovering” rocks, shells, and miscellany on the sandy bottom. The lake is small but afforded some vey good fishing and lounging with our rented pontoon.
This is a good cabin for multiple families. The bedrooms are good sized and most have multiple beds so they more easily sleep a family. The location on the peninsula is very pretty and there is easy access to Hayward. In the winter you definitely need AWD or 4WD. A minivan in our group had to be towed back out (the tow driver who also plowed the drive was very friendly).
Beautiful big home on Clearlake. Caught fish right off the dock! Enjoyed walks around property and down the street. Saw a deer one night. Home is clean and welcoming. I highly recommend and would stay here again
We loved the property. Plenty of room for our group of 8 adults and one child. The lake was so clear and quiet. We enjoyed paddle boarding every day and fishing. Played lots of yard games in the driveway and wandered in the woods. We visited the local winery for dinner one night and saw a young black bear on our way home! Our only issues were minor. Kitchen wasn’t well stocked with some of the basics compared to many rentals There were not nearly enough towels in the house. One hand towel in the bathroom and one in the kitchen for nine people for 4 days. We went in to Walmart and bought bathroom and kitchen towels and left them there. The location definitely made up for the little things. We’d go back for sure.
The property was very peaceful with lake on 3 sides and Loons in the lake. They have done some renovations on the home and there are more that could be done. Overall a nice, relaxing stay.
Group of friends that been traveling together for past 7 years came to Hayward! Beautiful secluded cabin with all the amenities surrounded by a beautiful clean quiet lake. We will definitely be back. On suggestion yo clean up and make entrance to your dock swim area safer. But otherwise great for a getaway!!!
Beautiful location. Peaceful and quiet. Host and cleaning staff were very easy to communicate with and friendly. Plenty of space in the house for entertaining and cooking meals for a group of 6 adults. Enjoyed the outdoor fire pit and taking walks around the property water’s edge. Loved waking up to the sound of the loon on the lake in the morning. Did not do much swimming, quite weedy, not much of a sandy beach. Slight hill/incline down to the dock, little difficult for older ones to access with stairs only part way down. The inside of the cabin is in desperate need of a deep cleaning, cosmetic repairs and some updating of furniture. However, this did not affect our stay overall, we had a great time with our group.
9 family members stayed at the property. Large house with plenty of sleeping options. House is located on a peninsula so you have lake views on all sides. Good fire pit area. Access to dock. Boat landing nearby. I’d recommend.
If you would like to spend time away from the busy city life do not look further- this is the place! Great house ,beautiful like, peaceful surroundings of nature! There was enough space for 10 people comfortably enjoying the house. There was everything we needed for worries free vacation. We were very thankful for canoe and boats so we can enjoy fishing and exploring the lake. Water in the lake is very clear which made our swimming great as well. Defiantly would like to come back!
This was our third time back at this property and we can't say enough good things about it. The fishing was awesome, the swimming can't be beat, and the location is fantastic. The property is definitely lived in, but that makes it all the more comfortable given that we had teens & adults going in and out from the lake for lunch. We can't wait to come back!
We had a great time staying here. When we arrived, we had a hard time finding a few things, but the owners texted back promptly to help us find what we needed with the exception of a second canoe paddle, which might have ended up on the bottom of the lake. The house had plenty of room for our group of 9 with 2 dogs. The house has a paddle boat, a canoe , and a fishing boat, but we didn't use that one. We rented kayaks in Hayward and the company was able to lend us an extra canoe paddle, so we had lots of watercraft!
The cabin is on a beautiful, secluded location with tall trees and lake views on three sides. Everything was great inside and out, with plenty of room for everyone. The kids enjoyed the pool table and paddle boat. We launched our boat before we arrived to the cabin as the road to the cabin is long and narrow with some hills. We enjoyed seeing all the loons on the lake and the water is clear enough to see them swimming underwater. Thanks for the great stay!
We appreciated having space in the cabin to spread out, and the surrounding woods were beautiful. The kitchen was also well stocked! We really enjoyed the canoe and paddleboat available.
This is an amazing property if you are looking for the feeling of seclusion as you are surrounded by water on the peninsula. Quieter, smaller lake. The cabin is exactly as advertised. Clean, functional, and worked great for our group of 10. Easy check in process and the hosts were very responsive.
