About this cabin rental

Tucked away in the middle of the Chequamegon National Forest is the delightful community of Clam Lake. Majestic pines, cluster birch, and a quiet lake provide the backdrop for our beautiful hand-hewn log home. This is a truly unique home and property! Our home is situated on our own 16 acre peninsula, surrounded by water on delightful Beaver Lake, a small refuge for waterfowl and wildlife. There is only one other property on the lake so privacy is yours. Rustic but not primitive, this home has five bedrooms (including a loft), and three bathrooms. It comfortably sleeps ten. The main floor has a large, well-equipped professional kitchen with Viking stainless dishwasher, range, and refrigerator/freezer. The kitchen is stocked with enough cookware, appliances and utensils for even the most discriminating gourmet cook. A sunny eating area with its handmade rustic pine plank table seats ten or more, and looks out over the deck and lake beyond.

The great room has a large gas fireplace, custom Old Hickory furniture, cable TV, wireless high speed internet and a DVD player. Windows facing the lake extend two stories for fabulous views of the lake and surrounding woods. Old Hickory and antique furniture is inter-mixed with comfortable seating throughout the first floor. Off of the great room is a sunny all season porch facing the lake with two story windows on three sides. It is truly a spectacular room and a favorite of our guests. The main floor has 2 charming bedrooms, one with a bunk bed, and the other a double. Both rooms are furnished with handmade log furniture and wool throw rugs. Out the back door is a deck, which is a nice spot for viewing the lake while sipping morning coffee or an evening drink. Seating is provided at a comfortable dining table with an umbrella.

Upstairs there is a master suite loft with a king bed, en suite bath with a double shower, leather chairs and a private deck. A wall of windows provide memorable views across the lake year round. The loft area is a treat in itself. Downstairs there are two knotty pine bedrooms warmly decorated with a Northwoods theme and handmade beds. They share a newly finished full bathroom. The downstairs is also home to our large game room with a pool table, game table, and foosball table. We also have a large collection of children's toys and games. The laundry area is in the basement as well.

The natural beauty of the woods can be enjoyed inside or out. A large stone firepit complete with seating overlooks the wetlands and sunsets across the lake. The lake can be enjoyed by non-motorized watercraft only. A canoe, large paddle boat and paddle boards are provided. A large wetland at the opposite end of the lake is a summer breeding ground for many waterfowl including wood ducks, sandhill cranes, Canada geese and even bald eagles. The entire house is surrounded by extensive gardens that bloom into fall. Several trails are cut through the property for a short walk or simply walk down to the forest road for a quiet stroll through the woods. Across the lake are snowmobile and ATV trails that hooks up to literally hundreds of miles of trails through the wilderness. The surrounding area is filled with year-round outdoor activities. At the end of the day, you can return to the peace and solitude of Beaver Lake... or simply never leave!

This was our second time visiting this property during winter and this cabin was exceptional as well as the property. Due to the warmer temperatures this year, we were able to have a winter fire in the firepit by the lake. Also, we saw no less than twenty beautiful elk and deer this year. Truly a memorable winter stay.

My husband and I stayed for a weeklong family getaway with our 4 adult children plus their spouses/signif others and a baby. This cabin suited us perfectly! With five bedrooms, there was enough space for everyone, though we did bring a queen air mattress due to one of the rooms having a double bed. The master BR fills the loft--it is very spacious with great views and a deck, but it is open to below so there is noise if others stay up later. The cabin was clean and the kitchen was well-stocked with dishes, pans, glassware, and cooking utensils, etc. Items that were not included but would have been nice to have on hand were tin foil, larger ziploc bags (to take our leftovers home), and basics such as sugar and coffee. The bathrooms did not have shampoo, conditioner, or body wash, so you will want to bring your own. The property itself was wonderful! It felt like we were on an island because the lake surrounds the cabin on three sides. We used the canoe, paddleboard and swimming raft quite a lot. We caught a variety of small fish from the dock and canoe--fishing esp. good at sundown. The firepit area is lovely--all stone--and overlooks the lake. No firewood--it would have been nice to have a bundle or two provided for us. We found free pickleball courts about 20min away at Silverthorne Lk Pk and rented a pontoon also 20min away at Mystic Moose Resort for just $250/day. The girls went horseback riding at Spider Lake Ranch. Overall this cabin was fantastic for us!

A very peaceful and quiet location. Tons of wildlife. Plenty of fish to catch in the lake. Tons to do in the area from hiking Copper Falls State Park to go-karting and Lumberjack shows in Hayward. Julie the host was very easy to work with. Check in was a very simple process. The cabin was very spacious and rustic. However..... The cabin was filthy! Master bedroom bed sheets had stains. Master bedroom shower had a loose valve shower handle. Dishwasher didnt clean dishes at all(we had to rewash most dishes by hand) Stove top was dirty and covered in grease. Oven didnt cook evenly. Non stick frying pans were pretty much shot due to non stick coating chipped off (were horrible to cook with). Downstairs smoke detector went off 2 nights in a row. New battery didnt seem to work. Landscaping around cabin needs attention. A lot of over grown bushes in front of deck railing. Hard to even see the lake. There was a rose bush overhanging the deck railing on table side. We couldnt even take advantage of the full table due to the rose bush was covered with thick thorns. To top things off the deck grill started on fire. With the poor cleaning of the grill, any caked on grease at the bottom of the grill caught fire and we used a fire extinguisher to put out the fire. Not to mention the grease catch was also full of grease. Grill brushes had almost no bristles left. Clean and fix your stuff people! We pay good money to stay at these places and this is what you get. So much potential here!

Wonderful property for a family vacation! It is located on a peninsula so you have the lake on three sides. The family had a great time fishing, paddle boating, kayaking, swimming, playing games, shooting pool, and grilling/cooking meals together. Great space with decks, porches, pier, beach area, trails, fire pit, swimming platform, and plenty of outside and inside area to play! One of the top places we have enjoyed!!

We have stayed at over a dozen VRBO properties in the last 10 years, either with family or friends. This is the only place we have chosen to come back again a second time and would do so a third. This property has it all. We love to cook so the superb kitchen was perfect. It wasn't seasonal to utilize the fireplace but can imagine how inviting it would be on chilly or cold days/nights. This spacious "cabin" that allowed for indoors games, private areas, a huge dining table and 3 bathrooms (esp with 3 teens) was so much appreciated. We ranged from age 10 to 74 and each one of us felt at home and found extras from books, to games and more to help entertain. We enjoyed the deck every day. We did wish there was another table so the whole family could eat there together. The two docks with canoe and new paddle boat gave room for the swimmers, kayaks and rafts so as not to interfere with those fishing. Some took early morning walks and saw wildlife each time. Not running into a bear or elk was okay but certain would have made those walks extremely exciting. We had an unexpected situation arise just prior to our check in that the owner graciously helped us resolve - so very thankful. Julie, the property manager, was very helpful and accommodating. She checked in on us after we were settled and called to let us know of a repairman coming and also another service person ahead of time. The home and the grounds were very well maintained and clean. The laundry facilities were appreciated with our group!!! The pool table a plus. Everything in and on this property was top notch. And the welcoming gift of s'mores fixin's and sticks hit it off with young and old alike. Thank you for the opportunity to stay here once again. Kudos to the owners and to the staff. .
