    We had a great trip! It was our second visit and have booked for next year. Dave is a great host.I caught a 2lb and 3lb bass hooked on the same crankbait. Does that qualify as a 5lb bass?

    We had a fantastic stay at the Overwatch. Set on a quiet, beautiful lake, this place is a hidden gem: peaceful, remote, and perfect for fishing. We caught a ton of fish and spent hours on the water. The cabin had everything we needed for a comfortable, laid-back getaway. Dave was a great host—responsive, helpful, and clearly takes pride in the place. Solid 10 out of 10.

    This was our 2nd stay. This place is everything as described and more. Fishing was as Dave described. Quality of fish caught was amazing. The cabin once again was clean, kept up and net all expectations Unfortunately we have to skip coming back in 2025 but we will be back in 2026. Thanks Dave!

    Overall the place was nice. To many rules. A lot of ants roaming around and spiders. We been at other locations cheaper and overall nicers. Could be better described, a little misleading. Dirty barbecue, not enough coal and lighter fluid.

    The Overwatch is exactly as advertised. It is a lovely place on the lake, and provides an excellent opportunity to enjoy the best of the Northwoods. We saw eagles flying overhead at various times of day. It was our first time here, and we would definitely stay at The Overwatch again. Thank you!
