  • Family time on the lake

    4/5

    Cabin was perfect size and location for us and our two young kids. Beds were very comfortable! The views were amazing and it was very peaceful. We were bummed the dock wasn’t out for the kids to fish, but we still could fish from shore and at a nearby park. Loved the long weekend. Would definitely come again.

    Manager's Response:

    From the owner, "Hi Heather, we're glad you enjoyed your stay. Unfortunately, the lake water level has been low so far and has delayed putting the dock in."

  • Nice little cabin

    4/5

    The cabin was nice, we hoped to fish the lake but after arriving we learned that the lake is drained down 4 feet starting in September (not sure if this is yearly) so we were unable to launch our boat. We did find another lake close by to fish and found some big ones! The cabin had everything we needed to cook meals and kids loved playing with the toys they had.

  • Great weekend getaway!

    5/5

    This place is tucked away in a private area on Nelson Lake. The cabin is stocked with all amenities you would need for camping. The neighbor dogs next door can be a little noisy, but otherwise this place is perfect!
