Full custom kitchen, laundry facility, great room with 23' ceilings, large family room, 2 Gas fireplaces, spacious decks, and attached 3 car garage. Will be decorated for Christmas the whole month of December & part of January.

Plenty of room to spread out in this 3200 sq. ft. three level home. Large deck and patio with large firepit outside. Enjoy cooking outdoors with our Weber Grill and a 36" Char Grill Griddle - perfect for making a variety of either breakfast, lunch or dinner meals on the Griddle! Enjoy our Hot Tub on lower patio off LL bathroom door with Bluetooth outdoor speakers. 8 Beach towels & 4 robes available for use.
Power Outages - Should you experience bad weather that causes a power outage in the area - no problem with our whole house generator that will keep you up and running like nothing happened allowing you to keep your vacation stay going!
Security Devices on Property - We have a Ring Doorbell on the main entry door on the porch that has video and audio recording capability. This is used for security purposes and also to allow us the ability to communicate with guests upon arrival if they have any problems entering the cabin upon check in.

#1 Cabin in the North.
This is our 4th year at this Cabin and it never disappoints. The property is exceptionally maintained, and provisioned; you don’t have to bring anything but your food. In addition every year there is a new improvement that is made to the property to add comfort, convenience or reliability. Don’t skip over this one, if it’s available book it.

Great getaway!
Struggled a little with the keypad getting in, but after that it was smooth sailing! Lots of space, FULLY stocked kitchen, coffee bar, S’mores bar, fire pit, games, books, just so much fun for a group of teenage girls. Highly recommend.

Good times in a great place
Our group has been staying at this property since 2012 and have lots of great memories here. It’s always been a great place in a fairly remote location, but the new ownership has taken the place up a few notches in quality and comfort. If you are looking for a place to rest, cook, eat, drink, and be together in comfort, this is it.

Family Vacation
We spent a family vacation here over memorial day weekend. The property is great. Very spacious and quiet. It is stocked with everything you could need and then some. The owners are very accommodating. They made sure we had everything we needed and gave us advice on things to do in the area. We will definitely be returning.
