Todd & Mary
We had an absolutely wonderful week at the cabin. There was nothing that Todd and Mary didn’t think of or have available. It is by far the best vacation rental we have experienced. We commented daily on how clean and well stocked this cabin was for visitors. From the charging cords next to the beds to the wide array of water toys everything was perfect for our large group. Thank you for a wonderful week of family memories!
Had a great time - beautiful spot on a nice quiet lake. Hosts made everything very easy and cabin is stocked with everything from yard games and life jackets to kitchen staples and smores skewers.
This is a great cabin. We really enjoyed our stay. We had nine people ranging from 9 months to 72. The bedroom setups were great. Everyone had plenty of space and privacy. The kitchen was well stocked and lacked nothing. Communication with the owners was great. They were very quick to respond to questions. The lake is an amazing lake for kids and adults to swim in. The water is extremely clear and clean. There are no weeds and the water is shallow all around the dock. We also had plenty of room for docking boats. The provided lily pad really made the trip for the kids. The screen porch on the south side of the cabin was a great room that was used every day. It's a great spot at any time of day and was used for puzzles and there were lots of deer to be seen throughout the day from there. The one negative of the cabin is the hill down to the lake. There are 77 steps down a very steep hill to the lake. The stairs have recently been replaced and are in good shape, but it is a bear to walk up. It gets the heart pumping and the legs burning when walking up. I had a fishing boat and could tell from the pictures that I would need a lot of extension cord length to reach the cabin in order to charge my batteries. I brought three cords that totaled over 100 feet and it wasn't enough. Fortunately there were some extension cords left on shore that I was able to use to make the length. Overall, a really nice place.
Just wonderful, rejuvenating! So comfortable with everything you will ever need for a great vacation on the lake!
Lot's to love and like about this property: The landings on the stairs to the lake. Screened in porch area. Very nicely equipped Kitchen. Dock and swimming area. Water toys. Lawn toys. Air conditioning. Ping pong table. Floating mat. More than ample deck chairs. Fire pit and firewood. Quiet lake. It was a great place for our family to spend the week.
What a beautiful and cozy place to stay. We had a big multi generational family group and filled every room, but never felt too tight. There were so many things to do and see and places to relax. We really feel we experienced everything this home had to offer! It was perfectly appointed from the kitchen tools, house amenities in the bedrooms and bathrooms and perfect toys for the lake. They’ve thought of it all! We had an easy time renting a boat and getting it to the dock. Was the clearest lake we’ve seen in MN or WI. Didn’t catch a lot of fish, but had fun trying and saw amazing wildlife on the water and on the property. Beautiful lake views. We hope to come back next summer!
Great house and great hosts
Mary & Todd have the best property in the area. It truly is a 5 star experience. The house was equipped with things beyond your need, and anything you name it pops up like a magic. The view was incredible and accessibility to the property was easy. We will surely repeat our trip. They have been a great host !
The rental property is AMAZING! All the amenities are provided…down to bandaids. We were here for a family wedding so we were not able to enjoy the outside property but the lakeshore is beautiful and fire pit looks so fun! My kids loved the ping pong table in the basement! Would love to come back again and just relax, enjoy the deck, kayak and breath the northern WI air! Loved this place! Thank you for such an amazing experience!
Phenomenal property - just as described. Todd and Mary were awesome communicators and provided many amenities that you don't normally get in a rental - we had kind of cold and rainy weather so didn't get to use a bunch of the lake toys, but we loved the gathering spaces to play games, and good size yard for bags and yard games in between the rainfalls. Oh and the views are amazing - really beautiful property.
The property is peaceful and quiet. Perfect for our family vacation. The hosts have thought of everything!
What a gem! Absolutely beautiful in every way! We have stayed at a lot of rentals, but this one tops them all! There is nothing missing from this rental; it was so thoughtfully stocked. We brought extra TP cuz usually they only give one extra roll, but not here....they supplied TP and more like Q-tips, tooth brushes, top line toiletries, outside games, floaties, the list is endless. The lake crystal clear, so nice with a sandy bottom. Sunsets were incredible. Fire pit and furniture were exceptional. We spent a lot of time in the screened porch playing games/cards. What great family memories we made here. We definitely want to re-book for future years. Todd and Mary were east to work with!! Do not hesitate to rent here.
We had a small family reunion at this location. The cabin was clean, comfortable, and well stocked. There were plenty of showers and towels for us all to get ready to go. We especially enjoyed kayaking the lake with the resident eagles and loons. The kitchen was incredibly well stocked with dishes, and cooking equipment. Fun was had by all. We talked about returning again next year!
Wow! We have been renting VRBO’s for over 15 years and this one tops the list! They provided the best of the best! High quality everything and supper clean!!! Went above and beyond as far as extra touches including beach towels, games, kayaks, seating….I could go on and on. We had a minor issue that required repair. Todd responded immediately and fixed the issue quickly. We had 12 family members ages 18-82. PS: Very, very clean lake!!!! Wish I could give them more than 5 Stars!!
Our 3 generation family of 10 had a wonderful experience at this fantastic property on Upper Eau Claire Lake. The space was very comfortable, with many thoughtful touches, such as children’s dishes, table and chairs. The furnished deck, screen porch and fire pit area, as well as the Lilypad and kayaks were a huge hit. We were lucky to have beautiful weather while we were there, but decided that even if we had been unable to be outside, there would have been plenty of great space for us inside. Thank-you Todd and Mary for being such wonderful and communicative hosts! We would love to return!
We enjoyed staying in the cabin and had so much fun. The group were very appreciative for this great opportunity for them to get this experience of staying in a cabin and this helped promoting their mental health. We would love to come back again. Thank you for letting us staying in your beautiful cabin.
Wow. This property is beautiful. Well stocked. Great location and lake. We had a blast fishing, evening campfires, and relaxing on the porch. Amenities are everything you could ask for!
