Stepaway Vacation Rentals- Birch Hideaway

Loved the property and the wonderful view of lake. Cabin was the perfect size for my husband and I. Our dog enjoyed himself as well. We will definitely return

This property was as advertised on VRBO! The interior was clean and brought that true up-north feeling to our vacation! The property and Lake frontage was wonderful! Like all up-north cabins , there were a few quirky amenities, which only add to the cabin experience! Overall an excellent time on our vacation!!

Overall, not too bad. Occasionally there was a horrible raw sewage smell from the kitchen, but since we spent most of our time outside, it didn't affect us too much. The cabin is quite small, but the view of the lake is lovely. Only thing better would be an option to rent a motor for the boat.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Step away was was over the top with help to repair the power at the pier and replace a defective coffee maker. concerns were fixed with in a couple of hours. Best ever

The location on the lake was beautiful! We caught a lot of fish right off the dock. The cabin itself was a letdown. It was very tight for a family of 4. The kitchen is super small and almost impossible to cook a meal in it and serve. The floor is slanted so we had to watch our step. There were a lot of ants throughout. The cabins are very close! We could see in the neighbors bathroom from the kitchen. There is no privacy outside. You can hear the neighbors conversations and dogs barking. The fire pit is a tiny metal pit, could not cook on it. The worst part was the raw sewage smell outside. It made it almost unbearable to sit outside if the wind was right. The 9am checkout is a little early. We had to wake up very early to get the car packed and clean up. The area is great and there is a lot to do but with a family the cabin was disappointing.

I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: While the cabin itself was nice and the view was great, there were a few significant issues. The interior of the cabin was infested with ants, especially the kitchen and bathroom despite the presence of ant traps and us adding even more. My wife was awakened one night with ants crawling on her. There was also a pervasive odor of raw sewage from the outside that penetrated inside the cabin. As bad as these things were, the worst thing was discovering that the water reservoir on the coffee maker was caked in mildew after we had already drank a few pots of bad tasting coffee. There’s also additional maintenance issues in the bathroom.

The cabin is well maintained, at great location and the rental management staff held a good communication. Highly recommend it.

Every day we had to wipe water off the floor in the kitchen. It came from the area between the refrigerator and the stove.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The cabin was adorable and exactly what we like when we stay in the northwoods - rustic charm with modern amenities. Little St Germain is a beautiful lake and the South Bay, which is what the cabin is on, was perfect for our swimming needs. We would have loved a little more pier space to lie/lounge on! It’s a truly lovely place that we most definitely will be returning to.

Wonderful cozy rustic cabin in a quiet spot. Reminds me of resorts we went to as kids but with air conditioning? Sandy shoreline was great for swimming. Abundant bluegills. Great place and would definitely stay again.
