Descent Place
Very dirty, had to sweep before we unpacked. Mosquitos were really bad INSIDE the cabin. By the 3rd day we got them all killed.

Snowy spring getaway
Wonderful cedar cabin with so much room! It’s as pretty as the pictures. We enjoyed a “spring” break surrounded by snow, forest, and a hot tub. We’d love to come back again in winter weather or to enjoy the lake in the summer.

Winter Anniversary
My husband I came for a quiet anniversary get a way. We loved the location and the cabin is beautiful. We were able to snowshoe on the lake and then warm up in the hot tub. The place was really cozy for the two of us, but there is so much room we could also see having our whole family there. The communication from the host was really great and prompt. We look forward to returning when there isn't snow as I can image even more options for exploring and utilizing what the property has to offer.

Winter getaway
We had a wonderful time with the kids at this cabin! The cabin was very cozy and relaxing. The owners decorated for Christmas which was a wonderful suprise and looked beautiful. The lake was easy to access for ice fishing and snowmobile trails were nearby. We will be back!

Lovely cabin!
It was exactly as described on the listing- even better- spacious, clean, tastefully decorated and the beds were comfortable. The owners were quick to respond to questions.
