Balsam Lake, Wisconsin
A quick 1.5 hr beautiful drive close to the Twin Cities and there you have it the 'up north feel'. Balsam Lake is a premier lake that has plenty to offer. The lake is 1901 acres of great fishing, several islands, public beach perfect for a summer get away. Boat to one of many restaurants on the lake and easy access the marina. This lake makes it relaxing with all it has to offer.
Cozy up to the bonfire over looking the lake and listen to the wildlife sing. We enjoy looking at the lake at all hours, and every time we capture something different. Swing in the hammock that over looks the lake or just lay back and relax in the sitting deck. Perfect breeze hits you on all sides, the smell of summer is in the air.
The cabin is a easy to access one story. it is roughly 1000 sq ft with updated amenities. Sit on the deck that overlooks the lake. In the cabin we have updated everything to make the stay extra easy. One of my major needs as a mother of 3 was a washer and dryer in which is located in the bathroom. The cabin has 2 bedrooms, 1bath, and a pullout sofa in the porch. The kitchen is equipped with everything you should need. It is a great space for entertaining your family. Plenty of parking down the winding driveway. I am all about comfort when I step foot at the lake.
There is a public boat entrance if you decide to bring your boat or you can rent ours for an additional fee. There is so much I could keep adding with the perks, but i will let the pictures speak for themselves!
We hope you have a pleasant stay and look forward to this being a yearly trip for you!
The cabin was exactly as described. We had everything we needed for a relaxing girls getaway. Kitchen well equipped, comfortable beds and an incredible view are just a few of the great things about this cabin. So many places to enjoy the property. I definitely recommend this retreat!
My family had a wonderful time staying on Balsam Lake. Property was clean with all expected amenities. The fishing was excellent and the available pontoon for rent made lake access easy. Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking to get away for a few days with a family of four!
Loved the cabin and the decor. We really enjoyed the outdoor spaces and lakefront dock setup. We really enjoyed our stay and would recommend to others. Thank you!
Very accurate listing. Host was wonderful to work with.
Family of 4, plenty of room. Lots of seating areas, nice dock for our boat. Only downside was low water pressure. Showers were a trickle. Everything else was very nice. I’d stay there again!
Balsam Lake is gorgeous! Jumping off the dock into the clean water is a blast for all ages! The cabin is great too. The fridge was leaking inside but it sounds like a new one is coming. The beds were very comfy. All the seating options outside were great even though a few chairs around the fire pit were broken. The pontoon boat ran great and was so fun to use to explore the lake, drop the anchor and swim, or drive up to the lodge for dinner. It is really beat up inside but it serves its purpose! Overall it was a really wonderful lake vacation!
Everything we needed for a nice long weekend getaway at the lake! Boating, swimming, fishing, fire pit and local food.
Our family of five had a great weekend at the cabin! The owners were easy to work with, quick to respond and the kids had a blast on the boat and jumping off the floating dock. Would recommend and would stay here again!
Nice secluded lot! The lake was beautiful and Melissa was so easy to work with!
Melissa, our host, was awesome in every way. We loved the lake and the setting. We will be back!
Great cozy cabin in a great location. Swimming and sunsets from the dock were perfect and just what we needed. Definitely recommend loading up on essential groceries before arrival, closest “real” one is about 20 minutes away and a bit pricey by comparison. All in all the cabin was great and we can’t wait to come back!
property was on a nice part of Balsam Lake. Overall things were ok. Lighting inside is dark and could use more working lites. Some of the windows were not operable, with the bathroom not having windows for fresh air. Beds were good. Outdoor patio needed to be cleaned a bit better. Overall an okay place to stay, but didn't wow me for the price.
Exactly as described. Melissa was awesome with communicating. Cabin was clean, and had every thing we needed for a three night stay! Bass fishing was fantastic, only recommendation for people brining boats is make sure your bumpers are the very thick/wide kind. The dock is nice and brand new, which means that the posts are the newer wider plastic ones. It got pretty nasty one night, and unfortunately my bumpers weren't thicker than the dock posts, so the boat took a beating which was my fault! Just hoping to avoid it happening to someone else ?
Very easy renting and very good communication
This cabin is perfect! Easy to get to from the cities and has all the amenities you could want. We absolutely loved all the outdoor space (so much seating!) and couldn't get enough of the view. The dock wasn't in yet for the season but sounds like it will be ASAP! Can't wait to go back!
