About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Stunning Sunsets. Great fishing from dock. Sandy Shore. Clean and remodeled. AC.

Charming cottage that is clean/nice for your family VK! Has been remodeled but still has a cabin feel.

Includes a dock with spots for 2 boats.

The area in front is sandy to about 2 or 3 feet. Excellent fishing right off the dock. Neighborhood beach down the road is large, sandy to 7 feet. Orv trails and boat launch are both only a quarter mile away.

Built in the early 40's, the Interior decor pays homage to the 40s-50s cabin era and the local loon population.

2 window AC units handle all of the space. Recommend keeping bedroom doors open for air movement but stays nice and cool.

Galley kitchen with most of what you would need to cook meals for 8. WiFi. Microwave. Coffee pot and filters.

No dishwasher. No laundry.

Tons of ample seating to see the sunsets and sun rises over the lake and enjoy meals.

Outdoor fire pit is fun for making smores and has a few chairs.

Will share top secret fishing spots and also leave poles and hooks there so the kids can fish off dock.

Max people is 8.

Wonderful spot on the lake for our vacation. The cabin had superb views, was comfortable and everything worked well. Wi-Fi was excellent. The kids enjoyed catching fish off the dock. Weather was very nice.

Great place to stay on Lake St Helen. Great fishing, Close to downtown and other places. Lots of beds for people and the layout of the house works great for larger families. Kitchen has the things you need to cook at good meal. Large patio firepit works great and sitting out on it listening to the Loons is a bonus. House is well kept. Parking is tight. Would stay again. We had a great time!
