Gorgeous New 2BR Family Beach Retreat with Paddle Boat

Quiet, idyllic lake setting. Lovely place to canoe/kayak/bird-watch. Close to Hunt Hill for hiking, 15 min drive to Shell Lake Arts Center. We enjoyed driving up to Spooner for shopping and dining. Responsive hosts. Nice stay!

This place was great I would highly recommend! We ended up meeting the owners and they were so nice. They helped with anything I had questions on. We will definitely be back.

It was a fantastic way to spend my 45th birthday weekend. The cabin was perfect and very clean. Our dogs and us loved the beach and clean water. Fishing was good also. Overall a great place to stay. We will be back.

Communication was very good with the host! The cabin was very nice and had everything we needed for our stay!

We had a wonderful weekend at Ripley Retreat! The cabin is adorable - updated, clean, comfortable, cozy and had everything we needed for our stay. The view of the lake is beautiful especially at sunset with the fall foliage. Our dogs had the best time playing in the crystal clear water and on the sandy beach. Paul was great to rent from - friendly and quick communication. We hope to be back soon! Thank you!

The place was beautiful. We had a great time. The views and private beach was amazing. Our dogs loved the beach and playing in the water. The owners were so nice and easy to communicate with. They have literally thought of everything. Unfortunately we had some pretty cold weather but even so we made the best of it. We would definitely love to come back next summer.

This cabin was exactly as expected from the listing. It is clean, even being located ON the beach the floors looked brand new. It turned out we overpacked - almost everything we needed was available to us there, making our stay comfortable and easy. The lake is beautiful and great for swimming. It is pretty shallow near the beach so my kids had a ton of space to play safely. We will return!

We had a great time at the cabin. The kitchen was fully stocked and Paul was very easy to communicate with.

We had another great stay this year. My 5 year old was able to catch over 100 fish from the pier in the week we spent. Paul is extremely responsive and flexible. Thank you!

Wow! This place was perfect for our family of 3. The beach was just as beautiful as the pictures show. The owners have thought of everything, from toiletries to a fully-stocked kitchen to extra bedding to outdoor furniture and games. We rented the pontoon for an extra fee (less for 5 days than we would have paid elsewhere for 5 hours!). There is a pond behind the cabin that I was afraid would mean lots of misquitos. I was wrong. I did not see a single misquito on 5 days. I would certainly go back!

2nd time staying here. We absolutely love it. Great for our small kids and dog.

Perfect size, beautiful picturesque spot on icy lake . Wonderfully equipped kitchen, immaculately clean. Loved our time there and can’t think of a better place to prepare for the race or enjoy after!

We had another great stay. Love coming here for a little ice fishing with the kids and to just getaway. The house is always clean and the owners are so nice and quick to respond. Thank you again for a great weekend!
