About this cabin rental
The perfect summer or winter getaway! Enjoy a large level lot in the summer with 2 docks for boating, fishing, and tubing. Fully furnished kitchen, outdoor grill, and fire pit. Catch a beautiful sunset from our southern shore location. Warm up by the gas fireplace in the winter after ice fishing, skiing, or snowmobiling. We are only a few feet from the shore whichever season you chose.
Excellent location on Nelson Lake, a 2500 acre lake located just a few miles north of Hayward, Wisconsin. Multiple recreational opportunities in all seasons to include local ATV/UTV/snowmobile trails as well as a large segment of the Birkebeiner ski trail and mountain bike trails nearby. Local events to include the annual Lumberjack World Championships, annual Musky Festival, and American Birkebeiner ski race. Something for everyone whether you like hiking, biking, skiing, fishing, boating, tubing, golfing or just exploring the local area. Kids will love a stop at the well know local candy shop or the National Fresh Water Hall of Fame and Museum…look for that really big fish in town!
Check out the unique shops and boutiques downtown. See the Hayward Chamber of Commerce for additional information on local dining and yearly calendar events. Multiple options for dining right on Nelson Lake…stop over at Park Island for a drink and some pizza. I never knew where “Up North” was until we stumbled upon this cozy cabin on the shores of Nelson Lake where you can get away from the daily hustle and bustle of life and make precious memories with your loved ones. We want to share this experience with you!

Spent most our time outside- large gas grill was amazing. Nice level yard for playing baggo and sitting around campfire was a plus. The house had eveything we needed. Host responded quickly to all our questions.

We really enjoyed ourselves around the fire pit, pontooning on the lake, eating great food around the area and relaxing. The Looney Bin was setup so perfectly! Everything we needed was right there for us.

We can’t say enough about the cabin and Melanie. Melanie met us when we arrived. Communication with Melanie was great.She showed us around. what a wonderful lady. The view to the lake is beautiful. The cabin was extremely nice. Decorations are so cute and nice. Kitchen was stocked with everything you will need. It was very very clean. Would recommend this to anyone who wanted a great place to stay. There was only one problem. The wheel chair didn’t fit well in the bathroom. We loved it and hope to go back again! The grand kids loved it.
Thank you for the wonderful stay!
Karen and family.

My family just spent 4 nights at the Looney Bin. The cabin was very clean and spacious for the 5 of us. During the heat of July the air conditioning was welcoming after a day fishing and tubing on Nelson Lake. We caught lots of Bluegills, Crappies and a Bass. The cabin was peaceful, private and well stocked with everything we needed. We were about 20 minutes from Hayward. Thank you Melanie and Joe for an amazing stay at the Looney Bin! The cabin was perfect for us!

House was clean, stocked with the essentials, and the hosts were easy to communicate with and responsive. This property has great frontage and while there are neighbors, you are not right on top of them like some of the other properties in the area. Would definitely recommend for families or friends.

The whole process from booking to staying was fantastic. Melanie and her husband were kind and showed us around the property. Everything was clean and as expected. We would definitely stay here again!

We loved our stay at the Looney Bin! The cabin was very clean and had all kinds of cute touches that make it feel like a cozy cabin. You could tell the hosts put time into making your stay as enjoyable as possible. We fished off the docks, went kayaking, enjoyed a campfires and bean bags (they had boards, kayaks, and so much more for us to use). The shore isn't sand but a large rock bottom which was really neat, kids enjoyed floating around in their tubes while taking a break from fishing. I have nothing negative to say about this place or the hosts - just a big thank you for sharing your cabin with us!

The cabin was very clean and well appointed with everything we needed for a Birkie weekend. Location was ideal for our planned activities. With three bedrooms and 2 baths I highly recommend for a small group or family to enjoy a comfortable stay.

My family really enjoyed our stay. The hosts were very accommodating, easy to work with and answered any questions we may had. It was right on the lake with a nice firepit and private dock. I highly recommend this place

Joe and Melanie are the best! Clean, welcoming property with fun for everyone. Close to downtown Hayward but you can have plenty of fun without leaving the Looney Bin!

Great care was taken to make this a welcoming home for guests. The little details like the s’mores basket did not go unnoticed. The owner met us at the property and spared no detail to make sure we had a spectacular stay. The home was clean, family friendly and best of all the lake views were incredible. What a great weekend we had. Such a lovely home with lovely owners. Would love to return and hope to do so next summer. Thank you Joe and Melanie!!

Looney Bin was a great, cozy place for our family of 7! The kids loved the bunk room facing the lake & adjoining room allowed us adults to take in the lake views. We kept fire pit glowing each evening. The docks made it easy for kayaks paddle boarding and boat access. An extra feature was Looney Bin was close to town dinner, lunch or no water activities! We look forward to staying at Looney Bin again!
5.0
The Looney Bin is absolutely perfect in every form of the phrase! Cozy, Comfortable & Clean. Not to mention the location is absolutely perfect as not only are you on the best lake in Wisconsin itself but you’re a rocks throw away from the snowmobile and ATV trails. The hosts pay very close attention to detail to make your stay as seamless and comfy as possible! Going back again for sure!
