Beautiful craftsmanship throughout the home. Very clean and has absolutely everything you need for an extremely comfortable stay. We loved this place! Definitely the top choice for a Hayward stay.

We had a great time and we love the cabin, It’s location and how accommodating the owners are to us. We will definitely come back again.

This property was just as nice and charming as the owners. We loved our stay at The Lodge. The Home is absolutely beautiful, clean, and well stocked. Nothing was spared and everything was considered. Everything was in working order. Martha and Dennis are very responsive, accomodating, and the property is very well managed. This was our yearly New Year family snowmobile trip. We shared the home with another family and found that it had more than enough room for all of us (including 2 dogs). The property was just as described, and even more peaceful than we could have dreamed. Our hosts were great and very quick to respond. Thank you Martha and Dennis for another great New Year family getaway! We look forward to coming back!

This is a beautiful cabin! It has all the amenities you would need. Bring your own food and you're good to go. There was a picture of the lake included with all the pictures, but the reality is that you cannot see the lake from the cabin. There is a path that takes you to the lake, but beautiful once you get down there. The cabin itself is surrounded by trees. We had the pontoon booked from the owners but last minute, it was not available. The owners took charge and found us another pontoon which was nearby and easy to pick up and return.

This home had the perfect “north woods” feel we were looking for while also being SO clean and organized. Everything was easy to use. The kitchen was super stocked with anything you would need. The attention to detail was beyond expectations. It felt very private and peaceful. Just the perfect spot for our purposes!

We spent a week at Woodhaven and Martha & Dennis are great hosts, very prompt with replies and accommodating. The house is very cozy, clean, & the kitchen has everything you need and more. We also rented the pontoon, which is definitely a must when vacationing on a lake. Good memories had by all.

This property is beautiful and well maintained. The bedrooms were comfortable, the mattresses are heavenly. The kitchen is so well stocked, nothing was needed from home but food. The dock is sturdy and long, plenty of room for our toys. They offered complimentary canoe, kayak and row boat which our family took advantage of. Martha and Dennis have thought of everything to make our stay more enjoyable. They put great thought into cleanliness and comfort. Thank you for such a beautiful location for our family to create memories in!

Our family of 12 had a great time and had everything we needed for a great vacation.

The house is everything that we wanted. Plenty of room for everyone. We have a grandson in a wheelchair, so the basement was perfect for him. My only wish is that the check in would be for more than 6 people. The house can easily sleep 12. We rented the pontoon boat and loved it. Martha and Dennis were great. See you next year

The hosts were very welcoming and the home was extremely well equipped and in great condition. We also rented the pontoon boat which was a great way to enjoy the lake. Martha even had pet bowls for our dog. There are also a few areas to sit in -one on each floor which we would be great if you had different ages all staying together. We rented at the beginning of summer so we didn’t swim but the lake had a lot of fishing spots or you could cast off the dock.

We came up to xcski, fat bike, snowshoe and relax for the weekend. Many recreational trails are 10-20 minutes from the cabin. The cabin is located on a quiet, dead end road with wooded views of Nelson Lake. The cabin was clean and had everything we needed to enjoy a long weekend, including a kitchen stocked with everything needed to cook along with extra towels and linens. Evenings were spent next to the fireplace. The manager was helpful and prompt with any questions and provided a lot of great info prior to coming to Hayward.

Beautiful property! Ample parking . Planning a return visit.

There are not enough words to summarize such a perfect stay! This cabin is fabulous! It is spotless! The pics really do not do it justice. The location is perfectly situated between surrounding cities, ie., Cable, Hayward....so it's very convenient. We had the pleasure of meeting the owners, Martha, Dennis, and Boone (their doggie). We've stayed in cabins across the country, and these are the nicest people with whom we have ever had the pleasure of staying. I can't say enough wonderful things about this experience. If you are ever in this area, I highly suggest renting Wood Haven Lodge! Dennis, Martha, and Boone will make you feel at home!

We stayed as a family of 9 (mom/dad/kids and grandparents). The home was very clean and beautiful surroundings. Great location. Only ever so slight complaint is the mattresses. The mattresses were very firm which neither couple was used to so not very uncomfortable for us , made rest hard , but others may be ok with firm. Again, only a slight complaint. Everything else was wonderful!

The owners were meticulous about organization and cleanliness of this property. Our family and our dog had all the accommodations we needed and communication with the owners was excellent. We had a great stay on a fall weekend, I would love to be back again to enjoy another season at this well cared for, cozy cabin. My kids loved all the special little extras, including personalized memory game of the cabin, drawstring bags to take home, personalized note pads and playing cards.

Very Clean property. Nice Lake ,Parking a little tight but Martha and Dennis were very Accommodating. Would stay again if making a trip to Hayward.

This property is beyond a doubt clean and well stocked! Martha has everything in place to make your stay comfortable and worry free. Lake was clear - good swimming and fishing. A definite winner of a rental!

Our family of 12 had a wonderful time at Wood Haven! The cabin was beautiful and very well appointed. Dennis and Martha thought of everything! We also rented their pontoon, which worked great for fishing and cruising. We had great luck fishing off the dock, too. The fish cleaning house was a plus. Swimming next to the dock was ideal. Martha and Dennis, the hosts, are the best!

The cabin was PRISTINE, beautiful beyond measure (all wood) and the amenities were endless. We rented the pontoon, and everything was ready to go. Martha and Dennis were attentive, gracious and extremely helpful. We've made new friends! This is a great place for family/friends to gather to reconnect. It is spacious, gorgeous, and clean..not a dust bunny anywhere. Could have stayed all summer.

Beautiful home, great location and everything we needed for our family and friends for our annual spring break trip. Martha was very helpful to our family during check in and fun to chat with. We would stay again for sure.

We had an excellent time and will definitely be coming back.

This was a great home-away-from home for us for 2 weeks. We had multiple families during the stay and the layout of this cabin was perfect. Three floors each with bedrooms and bathrooms gave everyone their space. It's a very clean and well-appointed space. We had many meals there an couldn't have asked for a better stocked kitchen -- everything a foodie could need or want!

Renters were great. House was very clean and organized. Definitely would rent again.

Wonderful property to ice fish, ice skate, hike and sled. Property manager/owners were very responsive.

Our family of 10 adults plus several grandchildren had a wonderful stay at Wood Haven Lodge and cabin. We especially enjoyed hanging out along the shoreline by the cabin And hours of time on and in the lake swimming and fishing. Loved having the two docks with plenty of room for our three boats. Boone came to visit us a few times which was great since we had two dogs with us also. Martha and Dennis we very helpful and a joy to work with.!

We had a great time for a weeks vacation. Unfortunately we were blamed for damage to a dresser that to this day we say we didn’t do the damage.

Dennis and Martha are just the nicest people. They made our trip during COVID possible by going above and beyond what anyone else would do. The house was so clean we felt very comfortable during this trying time. Thanks for making our trip possible.

This home is wonderful! Great location- 10 mins from downtown Hayward. Kitchen is ideal! It has everything you need. The house was so clean and welcoming. Martha was a perfect hostess.

Great place for family get togethers or just a group of guys up ice fishing which is what we were. Would highly recommend.

Our family of 16 and of all ages were warmly received by Martha and her husband Dennis. We enjoyed sledding, ice fishing, and eating s'mores around the fire as well as cooking in their well supplied kitchen and relaxing and playing games near their cozy fireplace. They were very generous with their time, suggestions, and occasionally, gear. It was a great place to weekend with so many people. Very clean and well kept.

My husband and I just spent the long Thanksgiving weekend at Wood Haven Lodge with my two sisters and their husbands and I can't even begin to tell you how fantastic it was. With three separate levels, each having its own bedroom (or two!) and bath, it was wonderful for each couple to have their own space. However, we spent most of our time together in the ultra-cozy main-level family room, cooking in the amazingly well-equipped kitchen, while listening to music with the woodburning fireplace going nearly all day every day. There's also a second living space in the lower level with a gas fireplace and giant TV, so IF there had been kids involved, they would have had their own space to hang, too. Martha and Dennis could not have been better hosts! They are close by and highly attentive, without hovering. Super friendly and a delight to get to know. When the snow storm hit later that weekend, Dennis was out plowing and shoveling out our cars before we were barely out of bed! And then, when my car wouldn't start after the below zero night, he cheerfully gave it the jump start it needed. I honestly don't know what we would have done without them close by. Every inch of this lovely lodge is beautifully appointed. North woodsy touches, without being too kitchy. The beds are comfortable with cozy flannel sheets and the lucky person or couple who gets the Master Suite will enjoy another fireplace and private ensuite master bath. The backdrop of the woods outside through the large windows overlooking the lake, with the freshly fallen snow, was breathtaking. An added bonus was having the Four Seasons Supper Club and Resort within walking distance (less than a block) when we didn't feel like cooking. The owners currently live on premises, so they were able to open even during the storm. More delightful people to meet and excellent food in the restaurant and bar. If you're looking for a perfect place to spend some quality winter time, this is your spot!
