Relaxing cabin escape
The cabin is spacious and well appointed, having every thing we needed or wanted from kitchen items, to extra blankets, to kayaks. Six women had a lovely stay, kayaking, reading, knitting, and exploring the area. The lake is right out the back door, perfect for kayaking several times every day. The owners kept in contact from the day we booked the cabin until the day we left. They are very organized and provide lots of information, which allowed us to have a fabulous time.

Great Cabin
Our family had a great time at the cabin. The kids loved fishing off the dock, swimming, the swing over the lake, paddle boating, ect. The cabin was stocked with everything we needed! The lake was weedy past the dock but the kids didn't seem to mind. We will definitely be booking again!

Great family weekend!
We had a great weekend with family! The cabin was clean and had everything we needed to relax and enjoy our stay. It snowed most of the weekend, but we still got out skiing at Trollhaugen, enjoyed a walk on the lake, and had a great dinner at Indianhead Supper Club. The big dining table was perfect for game night!

Cabin built for family with kids.
Location was great for the area of lakes we wanted. & price was very affordable. Unfortunately many utensils & dishes in cabinets were dirty & gross with food crusted to them. Also we had 5 men to accommodate for sleeping & basically only one bed in the master bedroom was worth sleeping in. The others are bunks more suitable for children & sleeping was terrible & uncomfortable with the available beds. Overall this is a great place for families with kids but didn't suit our basics with sleeping as i thought it would. The customer manager service was amazing though. Still Overall glad we had a nice place. Thx.

A Lovely Lakeside Getaway
The cabin was very comfortable, clean, and well stocked with everything we needed. Our kids loved having access to the paddle boat, kayaks, and canoe and we all spent a lot of time swimming/jumping off the raft. Communication with the property manager was easy and she had quick responses to our questions. We had a great experience!

My family had the most amazing time while staying at Cabin on Blake!! From paddleboating to kayaking, to games, grilling and stories around the bonfire. It was the perfect vacation for our family.

A cute, quiet getaway!
The cabin is beautiful and fit our family of 6 easily. It was clean and very well stocked. The lake is a bit weedy, but fishing was excellent off the dock! The neighbors are very close on one side, but they weren't outside much, so it didn't affect our stay at all. Overall, it was a great spot for a quick family getaway!

Big Blake Cabin is a Home Away From Home
The cabin was very nice and comfortable. They have everything a person would need there. The lake was beautiful and it was nice to see the eagles, loons, and raw beauty of northern Wisconsin. The property owners made everything so easy, and they checked up on us to see if we needed anything. Very good place to stay if you are looking for a getaway from normal life.

Great stay
We had a great little getaway. The house was clean and well stocked. My kids loved the game and toys tucked in the closet. Overall great place and lots of beds. The bunk beds have tall mattresses so probably for older kids. The bunk bed upstairs has a ladder that just leans against the bed, definitely not for kids. But many more beds here than needed for max capacity so no big deal

Lake house
The house and the views were beautiful. It was clean and for the most part we had everything we needed. My only complaint is that the AC was not working and there were no clear instructions on how to turn it on. The owner was quick to send someone out and fix it though. There is no vents in the basement bedroom so that room also became very warm. And lastly there was dangerous blue green algae in the lake. We had to learn this from w neighbor, not the owner. This is something out of anyone control but It could be a dangerous situation and something that should be monitored and shared by the owner.
