This place was perfect for my family of 5. We have a great time from the moment we arrived. If there was any question or concern the owner would immediately get back to us. Our stay was amazing. The home was exactly as advertised. We spent time outside on the deck grilling some food and time on the dock catching fish like there was no tomorrow. The kids loved playing in the loft and waking up to the great views. This place has given my family great memories. And we’re so thankful. We already can’t wait to come back! Thank you for the amazing service and letting us enjoy your cabin.

We had a great time at at lake Nahwatzel and the area. We had four beautiful days hiking in the mountains and enjoying the clear clean lake water. The camp was cozy, a throw back in time to my youth.

Sweet Little Cabin
We've been staying at this cabin once a year for a number of years now and have gotten to feel at home there. The additional parking spaces are a much appreciated addition. The view and location can't be beat. Great place to watch the stars at night after a day playing in the water. The property manager is local, and responds promptly to any requests. There is a fun little bar/restaurant just down the road within easy walking distance if you dont feel like cooking. If youre looking for a low key, reasonably priced lakefront stay you cant go wrong.

Beautiful view
We really enjoyed our stay. Beds were very comfortable. Had everything we needed. There were a few drawbacks- wooden stairs down to the lake are a bit slippery when wet, so be careful. Railing to hold onto at the final descent to the dock would be helpful. Also, parking for a boat trailer is not ideal, although it is doable.

Fall birthday with a view
My husband booked this trip for our family and it was probably the best birthday Ever! The view of the lake was amazing, the kids had fun fishing, swimming(even though it was kind of chilly) and we were so relaxed. Our family lives in the area so they were show us around even more! The folks at The Resort were friendly and the food was great! The only thing....is the road can be a bit busy and noisy. If you are pulling out of the driveway be careful, but other than that!? It was Perfect.

Lake Nahwatzel....Great place, wonderf location!!
To summarize the cabin....perfect! My girlfriend and three kids loved it! The loft with two queens was the perfect spot for the kids and the single bedroom downstairs was perfect doe us adults. The view was spectacular, the water was warm but cold at the same time. Perfect to cool you of in the 90° heat we had but not freezing.....there were plenty of fish if you wanted to go fishing. The sunsets were beautiful.....I will definitely go back!!

Perfect cabin for lake fun!
The cabin had everything we needed. We brought our own cooking and drinking water. The property was also clean and indestructible, but it’s really all about wonderful lake nahwatzel the water is clean and warm. We brought our canoe and kayaks but mostly swam off the dock. Our family had an amazing 5 day vacation and we can’t wait to come back!

Perfect Stay
The cabin was exactly as described; cozy, relaxing, clean and perfect for a family get-a-way. The neighbors on each side of the home were very kind and welcoming even though we were just tourists for a week. The lake was great for swimming, paddle boarding, jet skiing and fishing. The communication from the property manager was top notch and overall we couldn't have been happier with the entire experience. We would definitely recommend Grampy's Cabin!

Beautiful Setting
We brought our two grandsons for 4 nights. They had fun swimming and jumping off the dock. We caught enough fish to keep it interesting. The boys each had a full size bed upstairs and we had a room downstairs. We brought our little boat and were able to tie it to the dock for easy access. A great trip for all!!

Nice clean place with a great view.
The only negative things are: The driveway is very steep and it is just off the road, so it was challenging to get in and out of the property. Also there was quite a bit of road noise. And not having potable water was an incovenience.

Not as advertised
We rented a vacation rental on Nawatzel lake for 3 nights which wasn't as advertised. The amenities listed satellite/ cable TV which there was none. We were expected to stream using our accounts. They have changed the amenities since our visit. Contacted the property manager prior to arriving to ask about parking for our 19 foot bass boat and she stated there is room. There is room but the property manager failed to mention the narrowness and angle of the driveway off the road and the result was scrapped paint on the bottom of our 2 month new boat trailer and it didn't have a boat on it... thank God. Low vehicle's beware.The instruction book was not accurate and read take your garbage with you. Instead of listening to our concerns the property manager continued to talk about past guest experience I guess we expected more for the large amount paid. There are better rentals on the lake.
