Family of five made Gnome Home our base camp for three days of boating with friends. The location was super convenient to launch the boat on LCO and meet up with lake friends. The Cabin is cute and big enough to accommodate our family of five. We enjoyed the AC in the upper bedroom that spills down to cool the main level. Everyone was comfortable and we had some hot summer temps. Kitchen was stocked with the things we needed. The fire pit was great to gather around at night and make s’mores. Check in was super easy and communication from start to finish with the Bakkens was timely and efficient. We hope to return again in the future for an even longer stay. Highly recommend!

Would not rent again. Lots of extention cords on almost everything.

Quiet

Convenient location to Hayward with fun resort restaurants close by to visit. Also a very nice supply of outdoor activities. Had fun with my family for a short trip up north.

We had such a fun time! Within 15 min to everything we wanted to do!! The home was clean and had everything we needed for our stay! My boys loved how much room there was to run outside and the fire pit was perfect for s'mores at the end of the day!

Our trip was fantastic! Tanya and Chris were quick to reply to any questions or messages. The instructions about the property was very helpful. Our whole family was comfortable in this beautiful cabin. Very clean and had everything we needed to enjoy meals there and relax. Thank you both!

The place was great. No issues. A little tight if you have a trailer but street parking worked fine. I will stay again

We enjoyed our two-week stay at this cabin. It was clean, comfortable and relaxing. The owner is very easy to work with. We would highly recommend staying at this property.

We enjoyed many walks near the cabin which was very comfortable with a patio and deck for relaxation. You can enjoy television or some good tunes on the Bluetooth sound system in the living room area. There is a park with a pavilion on Grindstone Lake and you can access the lake with boats or canoes there, as well. A convenience store is just across the road, and Spooner and Hayward are a manageable distance away for additional needs. There are many lakes in the area you can venture to as well if you want a more remote hike or day on the lake. Check out the city of Stone Lake for souvenirs, ice cream and of course, barley soda. There is a nice nature area just east of town with a short boardwalk bordered with many types of wildflowers and wetland fauna. There are several trails in the woodland portion, a free library and memory walk. Bring your camera for capturing the "Northwoods moments!"
