Beautiful home in Waupaca!
I stayed in this home with family members for a weekend in December. The home is beautiful. There’s lots of living space. It’s close to everything Waupaca has to offer. Checking in and out was seamless. I recommend this home for any group needing a place to stay in Waupaca.

It was a beautiful home but could hear everything within the home due to the openness. Outdoor furniture was a little rundown but it still worked for us for the most part.

Great home for families
We were in town for a hockey tournament and this home was a great location. The house is well equipped with kitchen items as well as everything else for our group. We had a great time between games relaxing and hanging out with each other. Would definitely book again.

Very cool log home served us well. Everyone enjoyed themselves!! Boating, kayaking and fishing on the chain was so much fun! The only drawback for us was that it was fairly close to the highway so there was some traffic noise, mostly during the day!!

Great place!
Our family had a wonderful time with our week-long stay. Accommodations were perfect. Fun time on pontoon boat all week, too. We fixed the pontoon door, bought a new anchor and rope and cleared out the dryer vent in the garage. Great air conditioned home with beautiful features. All beds very comfy. Beautiful kitchen, woods view, and a great den-like office space upstairs. Our adult kids all found their place in the large home; nice bathrooms as well. Handy, nice washer and dryer available. We did see a mouse in the basement by the sofa but not a big deal, since it was in the basement, just an FYI. Thanks for the great time!

Spacious house and good location but…
This is a spacious house with a location close to restaurants, stores and kayak rentals. The price for renting the host’s pontoon boat for a week was very reasonable. We enjoyed the outdoor patio… just a little loud since the main road is right there. The backyard is very steep so we didn’t use it. We only had one major complaint… The air conditioning wasn’t working. I had to call the property manager and then the owner to discuss the problem. Luckily it was fixed pretty quickly because the house got up to 80°. The pontoon boat (you have to walk down the street to get to it) ran well but we could not use it at night because the running lights didn’t work. We had 12 adults in our group… Three of which had to sleep in the unfinished basement. I would say this is a more comfortable place for eight people since there are three bedrooms (master suite on the first floor) and one queen size sofa bed in the loft.

Summer Cabin Vacation
The property was very spacious. Loved the location. There were issues with the dishwasher and washer leaking water. So did not use the dishwasher. It had been running before we arrived and the water was on the floor. Did let property manager know. One of the two air mattress’s did not hold air. Overall stay was fine. Really loved all the space.

Review
The house has a good layout and served our purpose as a meeting place for our traveling and local family. I believe that the "sleeps 14" claim oversells the features. Offering the 4th bedroom in an unfinished basement (no bathroom either), with unfinished stairs to the basement is misleading potential customers. The following items affected the quality of our visit: Glass face of the wash machine was broken before our visit and should have been noted-so we would not be charged. Coffee pot did not work. Appears to be clogged-ran several water pots through but still slow. Purchased new pot. Dishwasher gave problems--odd display but still worked. Ice maker did not make ice. Had to purchase ice. In attempt to fix ice maker, adjusted the freezer control to normal (from high). Melted all the frozen food in the freezer. Bath towels were OK, only limited number of hand towels and they were marginal. Wash cloths were rags. Large number of TV controls had dead batteries -- or none at all. The check-in process was difficult and frustrating. Originally we were told we would receive info about two weeks before arrival date. We received nothing. Then the website said info available three days before arrival. Still nothing, so that morning I called and the owner said he would send it out with the hour. Unfortunately, he did not tell me he was texting the information. We had never used that method of communication before. After more phone calls, we received the info. All out of spa

Far from luxurious.
Certainly enjoyed the open concept but floors were filthy. Everyone’s feet were black from the floors. Garbage and recycling left from previous renters. Master bath sink plugged with standing water when we arrived, needed to use tub faucet which we needed to fix the handle first. Fire pit on deck was full of ashes. Don’t think insurance company would approve its location. Couldn’t use the fire pit down the hill since weeds and brush overgrown. Far from a gourmet kitchen - pots and pans dirty and had nothing to scrub them either. No baking dishes. Crock pot filthy. Minimal silverware. Toaster doesn’t work. No waffle maker or flat top for pancakes. No dishwasher soap to use. No paper toweling. No tissues either. Dryer also not working, no heat. Only room for one vehicle in garage, rest of garage used as storage. Old grill along side garage. All in all, this log home has such potential if it had necessary basic upkeep. Basement unfinished and lower deck is a disaster. Biggest disappointment was when we returned back to the house on the second day and the garage door was wide open. Called Willie, the manager who said he was at the house to pick up totes out of garage. Certainly was disrespectful since he came without any notice. We had our dogs along, they were on high alert the rest of the stay. Pontoon ran well but also in need of repair. Canopy is torn, boat lights do not work, and the front gate has been removed and replaced with a plastic chain.
