Quiet, secluded, comfortable Northwoods getaway

Welcome to Birch Cove Cabin!

This beautiful cabin home features a gas fireplace (Heat n' Glo), lofted bedroom with king-sized bed, walk-out lower level family room, screened porch and elevated deck overlooking the 27 acre lake. On the main floor: full bath, living room, dining area and kitchen.

Located at the end of the road, you are surrounded by 10 acres of wooded property on this peaceful lake, with over 400 feet of shoreline. With westward facing lakefront views, there is an amazing view all year.

We have made a few adjustments to address Covid-19 concerns during the pandemic.
- We continue to thoroughly clean between guests, using approved products
- We pay special attention to high-touch areas such as door knobs, handles, and light switches, among others.
- We ask guests to check-in after 4:00 in order to more thoroughly clean between guests.
- We have added additional hand sanitizing products and virucidal wipes for guest use in the cabin.
- We have recently installed a washer and new dishwasher to ensure that linens, dishes, utensils and other "shared items" are appropriately cleaned and sanitized between guests.

Updates:
- A growler from the Angry Minnow (www.angryminnow.com), local brewery, is available in the kitchen for your use. Stop by the AM for a bite and a brew, and bring some back to the cabin to enjoy around the fireplace or fire pit. Jim recommends the River Pig Pale Ale, but you can sample anything that catches your fancy.
- Doing any shopping at the MarketPlace? Use Jim's phone number at checkout to get a discount on qualifying items. AND, if you are getting gas at the neighboring Holiday gas station, use the same number to redeem any available per-gallon-discounts. If they're available, they're yours!

Winter advisory (November-May when there is snow): we recommend that you have front wheel or all wheel drive, as Wolf Lane can get icy. While it is not imperative, it may he helpful. Our plow service is excellent (plowed with 4" or more of snow), and sanding is available if there is significant ice.

Six guests can be accommodated by the king bed (loft) and two pull-out queen sofa sleepers: one each in the living room and family room (which doubles as a bedroom). And these aren't your grandparents' pull-out beds! From Room & Board, both sofa sleepers have premium, high-resiliency foam mattress with a quilted cotton cover for superior comfort with no bars or springs. For extra guests (up to eight guests total) there is ample room to utilize the inflatable queen mattress in the loft or in the family room. There is one full bathroom on the main floor, and a 3/4 bath off the family room, along with full laundry facilities and room for equipment/luggage storage.

The kitchen is well-stocked and supplied with pots, pans, cooking utensils, toaster, microwave, service for eight (both indoor and outdoor dishes for an impromptu picnic), and plenty of mugs, wine glasses, beer glasses and tumblers for your beverages.

The deck and enclosed porch are furnished with seating for 6-8, along with a propane grill. There is a fire pit and stacked firewood between the cabin and the lake shore, and the area has been carefully cleared to maximize the view of the lake while maintaining the privacy and natural beauty that attracted us to the area. Landscaping efforts are yet underway!

Take a walk along the moss-covered path in the summer, through the leaves of the oak, serviceberry and birch trees in all their autumn glory, along the snow-covered woods in winter, and in the spring, over the emerging flora of the Northwoods. Listen for bullfrogs, songbirds, owls and loons. Watch for wildlife: Sightings of bear, deer, bobcats, and turkeys aren’t unusual, and enjoy the peace and quiet of this private lake from the deck, hammock, lawn or dock.

Your Wisconsin retreat is 10 miles from downtown Hayward, WI and 5.8 miles from Springbrook center.

As guests remark, what is described is exactly what you’ll find. We offer you clean, comfortable accommodations, a quiet lakefront location, and an invitation to make yourself at home and enjoy the sights, sounds and peacefulness of the Northwoods.

Lastly but not leastly, you and your pets are very welcome with just a few reminders: the beds and furniture are for our human guests. If your furry family members are traveling with you, please note that in your reservation, and bring appropriate bedding for your pets. We are glad to supply treats, dog wipes, towels for our non-human friends, and extra food and water bowels if you need them. We ask that you leave the cabin as you found it, and clean up any accidents along the way. We understand that they happen, and there are ample items in the laundry room to use as needed: enzyme cleaners/sprays, towels for cleaning, and a bucket if is a big job! Many, many thanks.

Upon driving up and walking in the cabin it was very well done. The cabin was clean and inviting. We even got some snow which made it even more picturesque. I would recommend this cabin to all that want to get away for a relaxing time in the north woods. Thanks again Jim for sharing your beautiful cabin with us!

What an AMAZING property! Just the perfect quiet, restful and cozy cabin. We had such a great time having campfires, exploring the area and relaxing. Jim is a great host and the listing describes what to expect exactly. The cabin is well stocked and very clean. The drive in makes you feel like you are out in the wilderness, yet you are close to town for activities.

A beautiful property and well designed cabin! My husband and i enjoyed our stay. The cabin is well decorated comfortable and well furnished. There was no possibility of fishing or kayaking due to the lack of a safe pier and water levels which was disappointing. We love the Hayward atea and enjoy our time together every year!with e

Wonderful getaway in the north woods
My husband and I just got home from our stay at this wonderful cabin. The home had everything you could need and then some. We loved the layout of the home, the decor, the extras that were provided and that it was pet friendly. We wanted a quiet cabin and that’s what we got but we were just a short drive away to Hayward for great dining, shopping, and hiking experiences. We are definitely thinking about coming back next year.

Beautiful well equipped cozy cabin. Very spacious and very clean.
Our stay was wonderful and the cabin was beautiful. Well equipped for all your needs. The only thing negative was we couldn’t use dock to put kayak in lake because it was damaged. And personally I would have a TV on main floor also. Other than that it was amazing.

Paradise in the woods
Truly, there is no better way to describe this place than an absolute paradise in the woods. The location Is completely private and has everything you could possibly want or need. It’s clean, the beds are comfortable, And there are so many things to do during your stay. We have stayed at many rentals over the years and cannot say enough about how wonderful this place is. We will definitely be back!

Calm and Comfort at Birch Cove
Every detail was considered, from the charming, elegant decor to dog treats on the counter to the hooks standing by for the hammock. We used every available, beautiful space for relaxation. We played games on the 3 season porch, ate on the deck, kayaked on the lake and watched the sunset from the swing. There is clearly so much love and thoughtfulness put into this retreat and we can't wait to come back!
