The Lake Side Cabin offers the perfect blend of off-grid seclusion and modern comfort. The spacious, beautifully appointed interior makes it feel like a luxury retreat, while the outdoor activities provide endless ways to enjoy the stunning natural surroundings. From kayaking, canoeing, and paddle boarding on the quiet lake to swimming, fishing, and relaxing by the campfire, there’s something for everyone. The decks on both floors are perfect for taking in the peaceful views of the lake and surrounding evergreens. The unique experience of canoeing across Ragged Lake to reach the cabin adds an adventurous and memorable touch. Highly recommend this spot for a weekend getaway to reconnect with nature!

Teddy's (our dog) Birthday Weekend

With pets

We had a lovely stay at Laura's cabin. We were very glad to be able to enjoy the cozy space as the weather was a bit chilly for September. Our little guy and dog loved roaming around the property and dock. We especially loved the outdoor shower! Kudos to the 2 Mike's who built the cabin and also helped us out during our stay! We would love to return another time! Thank you for sharing your awesome place with us!

Looking forward to next time

We had a wonderful stay! The cabin and the property were beautiful and relaxing. The swimming was great. We enjoyed the kayaks tremendously, exploring the whole lake. We plan to return for longer next time!

Great cabin!

We spent a week at this awesome waterfront cabin. Getting there was fairly easy, about a 10 minute paddle. The cabin was fantastic, with everything we needed. Definitely recommend! Pet friendly so our dog had a blast, especially with the very vocal local chipmunks :)

Camping with Dogs

Group trip

Great spot with a private dock and lake access. Really sweet cabin with all the amenities you need already there. Clear instructions for use of propane fridge and outdoor shower. Very simple paddle across the lake. My dog was a happy camper here as well, with forest land behind the cabin and lots of space. I would definitely recommend this spot to other dog owners and their friends/families!

The cabin was beautiful and awesome. Thanks for an amazing experience. It is not truly off grid as you have cabins right next to you and you see people which was amazing. We loved that. The cabin had everything we needed and was well equipped. They also had floaties which made our experience so much better. For those who want to get there, just go straight and you will first see an island to your left and then to your right and then the cabin is right behind that. But overall it was wonderful! We would be back again!
