Norm and Sue are wonderfull people. So glad we got to talk a little before I went off hiking. Wife and son did some fishing and relaxed in cabin while I hiked and I did same after hiking both days. All in all was a very pleasent stay. I would recommend to all.

Lovely view
Lovely view of river at this property. Be sure to bring linens. Hosts were gracious and brought sheets. Pillows etc. Over. Thank goodness because we didn't bring any due to description saying linens were included under property amenities. Host did send email which went under our radar mentioning no linens etc. No railing by the step to get in. And it's a sketchy step. I'm only mentioning this cause our other couple was older and the old wooden step was higher than average.The view is incredible. My complaint would be the smell of the whole cabin. A candle did help. It could use a major cleaning and needs a little help but ... It's not like we spent a huge amount of money to stay there.

The views were beautiful, the colors were starting to turn, so we enjoyed the dock in the morning with coffee, and the stars at night with hot tea. Will definitely be back!

Space was clean and of good size. The single window a/c unit had difficulty keeping up with the heat. Property owner welcomed me as I arrived, which was very helpful since the building is not well marked. The directions provided were very helpful. Considering an autumn stay.

It served its purpose
Needs some updating and fixing. Mouse traps arranged all around house. Not the most clean. I wouldn't of taken a shower in the shower if you'd paid me to. When it says airconditioned, they mean one little window unit that could barely keep up. Bedrooms were hot! Sue and Norm, great hosts! House just needs a little work and updating.

Get Away
It was a cute place on the Chippewa River. We enjoyed grilling out and our view from the dining room table was spectacular. We also enjoyed the ducks coming right up to us . Having fires in the fire pit in the evening and watching the sunset and the stars . A lot of neat places to explore in the area and great hiking trails. Norm and Sue were great hosts .

Awesome view of Chippewa River
We found Sue and Norm’s place after abandoning plans to tent camp - rainy week predicted. Beautiful setting along the Chippewa River. Comfortable beds. Dining and relaxing seating area with large window view of the River. Fire ring out side between the cabin and water - we were able to use it two of the nights. From here, we drove to nearby sites to hike portions of the beautiful Ice Age Trail. Great bird watching both at the cabin and on the Trail. Nearby Cornell has 2 good ice cream shops plus we enjoyed pizza and beer at the Moonridge Brewing Company in Cornell. Norm and Sue were great hosts and responsive to inquiries. Sue even called during one storm to make sure we were ok.

Quaint spot. Cozy, beautiful lake and bon fire is nice
It’s a nice space for a get together. Has old time charm. The shower was having a hard time draining. That was the one downside, but great stay!

Being honest
Norm and Sue were very good about helping us find their rental. The listing had the wrong address, but Sue had called to find out our arrival time and she gave correct address. However, GPS wasn't able to find it. We had wonderful view of river and cottage was spacious. But, the place needs a good cleaning. Especially bathroom/shower and cobwebs/dust throughout. If clean, we'd make it a repeat location.

Peaceful retreat on the Flambeau River
My parents and I enjoyed our recent stay at this cabin. Although not quite as remote as we anticipated (owners and neighbors on adjoining lots), the property was in good condition, very clean, and well described in the listing as far as what to bring. The lake shore was picturesque--a great spot to enjoy a book and beverage in the early morning hours. The owners were pleasant and hospitable, and we definitely recommend them/their place to other guests!

Great stay!
Norm and Sue were wonderful. Before arriving they answered all questions quickly and they made sure we had everything we needed when we arrived. The house being steps away from the river was fantastic. We enjoyed many hours outside fishing and relaxing. The house had everything we needed. I highly recommend this place, Norm and Sue went above and beyond to make sure our stay was perfect. I have always stayed in hotels when traveling, so was nervous to try Vrbo but will use them again for future traveling.

The right size for us
Even though it was cold and rainy much of our stay the cottage was warm and cozy. It was just the right size for a birthday party with 9 adults. When the sun came out later in our stay the views of the water were great.
