A secluded feel while sitting less than a mile walk from Crystal Lake public launch. Family and pet friendly, come and enjoy the peace and solitude of up North.

Each bathroom is stocked with spare toiletries including toothbrushes, toothpaste, mouthwash, shampoo, conditioner, lotion and more!
If you plan to stay in and cook home made meals, worry not! This kitchen is fully stocked with all essentials and then some! We also provide coffee and tea essentials, as well as some dry goods in the cupboards to get you started. The island also houses a booster seat for babies/toddlers that has two trays, and can attach to chairs/stools or sit right on the floor.
Brand new full size laundry machines can be found right off the kitchen in the laundry closet so your trip doesn't have to leave you getting home exhausted and behind on laundry! Detergent provided.
The open concept moves right into the living room where you can watch nearly any streaming service on the smart TV, play board games and card games, or simply enjoy the view from a cozy seat as the back wall of the living room looks out on the large patio into the hilly woods. Spring and Summer bring dozens of butterflies into the back garden, hummingbirds and bunnies alike.
The custom hand stained pine ceiling paneling creates the perfect acoustics for an artists retreat, bring your equipment and record in near silence.
Outside we have a propane grill, a fire pit and camping chairs provided (those can be found in the Queen room closet). Also found in the queen room closet is a set of cornhole to take outside and play in the yard or right on the patio.

You will have access to the whole cabin during your stay. While we will be offsite, we encourage you to reach out any time with questions or concerns during your trip! The woods behind the patio are ours, with a walking path that goes very quickly downhill into the ravine; guests are welcome to hike the trail (we keep it very natural) at their own risk. Do not let children or pets play in the woods unattended. The shed at the top of the drive is not for guest access.
Most properties in this area are on well water and septic sewer; as is ours. We kindly ask that guests be aware of not flushing anything but waste and toilet paper into the toilets. A whole house generator on site will keep the power on in case of an outage during your trip.
Please message me if you intend to use the wood burning fire place for instructions to use it safely and where to find wood.
No smoking allowed - no exceptions.
Cigarette butts found on the ground around the property will be an additional cleaning fee of minimum $150.
Huge driveway has plenty of room for boats/trailers to park all the toys!
