This is our third stay in this cabin. It is clean, well equipped, and convenient. The host makes us feel welcome with a lovely note on the kitchen table. The instructions for arriving and departing are clear and concise. It is a beautiful location. We would recommend it to anyone who enjoys the beauty of the north woods.
We all enjoying our stay at the property from fishing to fire pit to grilling out or simply hanging out at the cabin. We caught fish and saw a couple elk cows. All in all it was great
Perfect up north cabin, with a fantastic lake view! We spent 4 days and enjoyed every minute. We spent time kayaking and fishing upper clam lake and nearby day lake. Did well enough to have a bluegill fish fry. We spent a day in Bayfield and toured the apostle islands. It was a quick drive from the cabin. All the local establishments had friendly and helpful staff. We took a drive down nearby Mathey Road and saw 5-6 elk standing next to the road. Overall the vacation was great and the cabin was fantastic. We enjoyed the books that gave the history of the cabin. Great personal touch that brought life and character to this place. Thanks for opening your cabin to us!
We had a wonderful time at this property! It is truly a northwoods old-world Wisconsin experience - just what we were looking for. The cabin was clean, quiet, and beautifully decorated. The central air was a nice touch - although we didn't need it! The ample firewood (both indoors and out) was also much appreciated. We would love to return!
The cabin was larger inside than the photos made it appear. We had a great time and found everything we needed to have a relaxing stay.
The cabin was clean and well equipped. We were welcomed with a handmade greeting card that was so thoughtful. Instructions for opening the cabin were clear and concise and for closing it as well. The neighborhood is quiet. The view across the lake was gorgeous this year. We would gladly recommend this cabin to anyone who wants a comfortable place to stay in the Clam Lake area.
We booked this trip to hopefully see or hear the elk and we saw a herd the first night! The cabin and location was nice and we really enjoyed the books they had regarding the history of the property.
From the moment we arrived at Cabin Hovestol, we felt right at home. We were even welcomed by an elk bugling in the distance nearby. We have been going on vacations in the woods for over 40 years and have never encountered a cleaner, more comfortable and more value added property than this one. The owner was congenial and responsive. The kitchen was bright, airy and well equipped and we enjoyed several meals at the charming old dining room table with a view of the lake. The bed was very comfortable and we could have left our pillows at home. The cabin was tastefully decorated, uncluttered and a good use of space. It was fascinating reading about the Hovestol family and history of the cabin. We sampled some of the area establishments, such as the Bierstube for drinks, sandwiches and a fantastic view at Garmisch Resort on Lake Namakagon, watched the Packer game at Ransom’s in Clam Lake and shopped in Hayward on a rainy day. We would have liked to try the pizza or broasted chicken at the newly renovated Chippewa Outpost in Clam Lake but ran out of time. We fished for bluegills and crappies, photographed a flock of swans, searched for elk and enjoyed a fire in the wood stove on those chilly fall days. All in all, everything about Cabin Hovestol far exceeded our expectations. We wanted for nothing and considered it a privilege to stay here.
My family enjoyed our stay at the lake.
Enjoyed the view of the lake during our meals, sunsets by the fire, kayaking, my grandson enjoyed hours in the hammock. It is a very peaceful cabin, nicely decorated. I hope to return sometime. My grandson and I had a hard time leaving, we loved our stay. Friday night fish fry at Garmish was the best we had in a very long time, the Old Fashions where pretty good too :)
Beautiful and peaceful getaway. Everything was just as described. I had a friend one time in Austin TX that told me to stop telling everyone about this Fantastic taco place we had discovered. And sure enough, within 2-3 years it went from a walk-up joint to a large restaurant with a 2 hour wait for seating. And in that spirit, there's a selfish part of me that hates leaving this review but I cannot do that to such gracious hosts. From the swans, the elk, the loon to the cabin and lake itself-simply Perfection. Fishing? Yes, we fished and did very well. But fisher friends-you'll have to mind your own bobber on that one. I will say this Texas gal out-fished a Northern guy so there is that. Reserve with confidence. We look forward to returning and are extremely grateful to Joel & Annette. We miss it already!
