Weekend trip to Bond Falls. Great location house was great. Inky problem was I couldn’t get shower to work in the master bedroom. Other than that and a rainy weekend it was perfect. Would definitely rent again

Terrific Place

First of all and having traveled a lot I can attest that there is no better place to be on earth than the north woods of Wisconsin in the summertime. Snowmobilers, cross country skiers and ice fisher people will say the same about winter. And of the 15 thousand lakes in Wisconsin, North Twin could be a poster child. Good fishing, great, safe beach for the kids (although I'd recommend water shoes cause we found a few hooks in the sand) a terrific bald eagle and loon show and I was pleasantly surprised at the lack of boat traffic. The house is comfy, well equipped, quiet setting and we'll be back.

Wonderful stay

this is a great place for young children. The beach is sandy and the water is shallow. water depth is about 2.5 ft at the dock. The sandy beach is not as wide as in the pictures but still great for the young ones to play and make sand castles. The house has plenty of room and is stocked well enough. we stayed 3 days and prepared every meal and did not lack in finding what we needed for cooking. We were a family of 4 adults 2 children 3 and 1 and a dog. They have 4 kayaks. We used a couple of them. I seen plenty of paddles there for all to go out. It was a great stay. Loved the view the only complaint that we had was the double bunk bed is seriously noisy. very hard to sleep when every move you make wakes you up. other than that all slept well and we loved our stay

Nice Cabin on the Lake

We enjoyed our stay here and would return. Were granted early check in but had already planned our trip around the 4pm check-in time so we weren't able to take advantage of that. Very sandy and shallow but I was able to get my Ranger 619 to the dock and secure it without getting in the water. Enough room to maneuver in the driveway with the boat trailer on. Great swimming area for kids, nice firepit, everything you'd need in the house including heat which unfortunately we ended up using even though it was the first weekend in Sept. What luck lol. The day we got here it was 40deg, the day we left 78deg. So pack accordingly. Close to a nice boat launch in Phelps, and The Great Escape bar and grille. Not far from Eagle River. Lots of board games. The water from the sink tasted just fine. First day here, the internet didn't work but the team resolved that within about 24 hrs. Due to that, we missed the first Packer game of the year (on Peacock only) and our kids didn't have internet to help occupy them during the massive cold front the first day or following morning. Once fixed the speed was plenty fast (around 20Mbps) to steam Netflix etc. As other reviews mentioned the bunk beds are squeaky, and although they are a nice size I wouldn't have an adult sleep in them. Smells a tad like dog urine or a musty cabin if that bothers you. Didn't affect us any as we have dogs but left them home. Overall no real complaints, just trying to be informative.
