We have stayed here four times now and every time is as great as the first. Marc and John are great to work with and the cabin, lake, fishing and town are great as well. Thank you Marc and John for letting us rent your wonderful cabin.

Perfect location
This was a very nice place for location and house was a perfect size. Great that we had a private dock and beach area. Place was not overly packed, barely anybody on the beach. We brought our pontoon and were able to leave it in the water for the 2 nights we were there. If you've never been in battle lake town, you'll need to go check out all the shops and eating places. Neighbors were friendly and the owners were right next door if you needed anything. Overall great place!

Wonderful Property and Owners
We just left this property and are ready to go back. Owners were wonderful to work with and the lake was great too. The house was very nice and updated. We had 7 people and had plenty of room. The owners were very quick to answer any questions we had leading up to our trip as well as any questions we had once we had arrived. The property also has its own dock and sandy beach that we spent most of our time at. We have already discussed going back next year and many years to come.

Great place!
Very nice cottage right on the lake. House was very clean, we slept 6 of us comfortably with room to spare. Owners were exceptionally responsive to our questions and pointed us in the right direction on various amenities in the city and the surrounding area. The shoreline is very clean with nice sand in this area for the kids to play. Kids had a blast fishing, caught a ton of sunfish but also several nice walleye and bass. All around great place, look forward to returning.

Very nice cabin
This is a nice and recently remodeled cabin, across the street from the lake. The street is usually quiet and not an issue. Kitchen is well equipped, cabin has good flexibility in sleeping arrangements. The lake is absolutely beautiful and the beach really is sandy and nice. Nice walking/biking path runs along the lake.
