BATHROOMS: 2

*For winter Guests, please be aware that a four-wheel drive vehicle is required. The property is plowed regularly, but there is always a chance that ice will form on the small hill leading to the property. When possible, it is strongly suggested to arrive during the daylight hours. Please try to avoid arriving at night.

Sharp, crisp, open. The Wolf Den hides its glory when you pull into the lake house drive. It appears to be an unassuming home with a cute front porch-- and then you walk into the home! You don't need to travel far north to capture the Up North feel at The Wolf Den. The knotty pine captures that essence. The kitchen is large and open, with a nice amount of counter space, where you will be able to cook without bumping into each other. The coffee bar is tucked in an alcove of the kitchen. You can dine in the bar-like seating and have a cup of coffee for two (2), or sit together with a larger group off the living room at the dining room table.

The four (4) bedrooms are all tastefully decorated with simple pastels which feel warm and peaceful as you move about your stay. The Master Bedroom even has a California King bed. The other three (3) bedrooms all have Queen beds. The two (2) bathrooms are of comfortable size with recent renovations. Your laundry needs are also easy to meet with the washer/dryer laundry room.

The deck facing the water provides plenty of space too. It's an idyllic setting to capture all four seasons as you are surrounded by trees are mesmerized by the fall colors, peaceful lakefront in the summer, watch the snow, or the melting of the ice in the spring. The views here will always capture you, especially if you are soaking in a hot tub while taking them in!

It's a joy to be able to bring your special, four-legged friend(s) and enjoy the shared swimming space as you soak in those fabulous memories together.

Annual Cousin (Girl) Getaway
Overall we were highly satisfied and had a very comforting and welcoming stay! Peaceful and pleasant by the water with backyard hot tub experience. We were a bit hesitate on the walk up into the house with little lighting from the parking and would like to recommend some solar lights and/or outside sensor lights to accommodate. Outside of that we extremely enjoyed our stay at the "Wolf Den"!!! Thank you for treating us with your hospitality of the place and cleanliness. Have a blessed day!

Wolf’s Den
Overall the house was in good shape and clean. Very nice decor and furniture. The front and back decks were great. For larger groups would need your own chairs though. The furniture only accommodates 4-5 people. The dining table only had 6 chairs but could accommodate 8. No options available for additional seating at the house. Bedrooms were large but no dressers available. The raised decks in the front and back are dangerous if you don’t watch when you’re walking. A different color or a stripe at the edge would be helpful. Overall, we enjoyed the house and was very pleased.

Underwhelming
The property was not as secluded as we were led to believe in pictures. The porch and deck looked as though they had not been swept in a year. The hot tub was dirty and never kept the appropriate temperature. When called to fix it they sent us a YouTube tutorial! The smoke detector needed batteries! It was beeping as soon as we walked in. Lake access was a small overgrown patch a few houses down. And the internet was spotty at best. No dishwasher as advertised. And the window unit air conditioner was not installed making the 80 degree days a little warm. Not exactly a dream vacation spot. We left early!
