ICE FISHING GET AWAY

Great property, exceptional views....the house has great access to the lake. It snowed during our trip, so the large front windows made it a great vantage point to watch the snow and our ice fishing traps.

We really enjoyed the property. The interior was nicely updated. The fire pit on the shore was perfect. The ride to Sugarloaf was a little further than expected but the coziness of camp made up for it. Will definitely consider another stay at this property.

From the moment we pulled up and realized the spot was ours, we were awestruck!….we had our 85lbs Boxer, Max with us in tow and it immediately felt like home, the house is well appointed with everything you would need for a stay, along with the view!

The best stay with glorious view

The location and views are unbelievable. The property is by far the best on this lake. The lake itself is so warm and crystal clear! The beds were all very comfortable and we had absolutely everything we needed. The jacuzzi tub was so relaxing and super clean! We definitely didn’t want to leave and will be back to enjoy more of this place. If you are thinking about booking, stop thinking and book it! You will not regret it.
