Spooner, Wisconsin
Goose Lake Cabin is tucked back in the woods on two great lakes for plenty of privacy and relaxation. Enjoy sunset lake views right out the windows or snowshoe through the woods on a short trail to pristine Loon Lake (enjoy the dock and great swimming and paddling when the lake isn’t frozen). Enjoy the trails on foot or snowshoe (several pairs provided) or warm up by the fire in this family friendly cabin. Close to ski trails.
The space
Goose Lake Cabin is perfect for family getaways, reunions with friends, nature exploring, and an awesome launching off spot to enjoy all the area has to offer. It is NOT a good spot for your next party weekend. Please read the description carefully and ask questions if you have them in order to ensure that this is the right spot for you.
Property: 18 acres of mostly woods, some trails, stunning views, access to two unique lakes, cabin is about 1/3 mile off the main road, so it is very quiet.

Other things to note
We want you to have a great time! Please note that visitors who are not part of your total guest count are not allowed on the premises or at the lakes without permission from the host.
Wildlife: This is a cabin in the woods. Mice have been known to visit from time to time (though the neighborhood Owls are great hunters). All food should be kept in provided containers and care taken to keep the kitchen tidy.
Winter: The long drive will be plowed if more than 3 inches of snow falls. There is a shovel available, which you may need to use to clear the steps. Covered parking is available in the car port. Sleds and 2 pairs of snow shoes are available for guests.
Winter Safety: The lakes freeze unevenly, resulting in unexpected thin ice. Do not walk on the lakes, even if they appear frozen. You may see neighbors on the lakes or ice fishing, but they have experience and knowledge of the unique lake freezing patterns. You, as a new guest to the area do not have this knowledge and will be safer enjoying the lakes from shore.
Summer: Please do not bring your own boats or water craft. Both lakes are protected and we are trying hard to avoid any invasive species entering the lakes. We have a canoe, kayak, and paddleboat for you to use.
