Hope you found the cabin in good order after our departure on Saturday, 7/29/2023. The cabin was ideal for our stay with the loft providing an area that the Grandkids could call their own. A few comments that hopefully you will find helpful relative to the cabin rental. Not all of the outlets were functional. There were no instructions for the TV. Also think some of the batteries in the remotes needed replacing. We do understand that if the TV’s worked, streaming was needed. The lighting in the master was lacking – one bed lamp did not work (missing knob) and the bulb in the overhead fan did not work. The grill was not used. It appeared that it was somewhat disassembled. The access to the lake and the water off the dock was very disappointing. Honestly if we had known the condition the area was in we would not have rented the cabin. We had two teenagers and 2 – 10 year olds all are avid swimmers and one is a kayak enthusiast. Needless to say somewhat disappointed. Not sure why having a waterfront cabin with no clear accessibility or view of the water. Now I understand why there was no photo of the waterfront.

Perfect Getaway
The house is fully stocked with everything we needed, including a well-appointed kitchen, comfy beds and a great gas grill on the deck. The deck! The huge wraparound deck was where we spent the majority of our time. It overlooks the beautiful yard and lake. While there are neighbors, you'd never know it. We felt like we had our own secluded oasis all week.

Cabin on East Leaf
My daughter, my sister and her daughter and I had a wonderful girls' weekend at the cabin! It was very comfortable, cozy and the Northwoods decor was very welcoming. The kitchen was enjoyable to use and well stocked. The wrap around porch was amazing. Communication with the owner was great and check in was effortless and so convenient. We appreciated all the attention to detail that the cabin offers. Thank you, Dan & Marnie, for sharing your wonderful cabin with us!

Wonderful cabin - lovely owners.
My son and I had a WONDERFUL TIME at Dan and Marnie's cabin. We cooked a lot in the well-appointed kitchen, hung out and played cards by the cozy pellet stove, and enjoyed the wooded stillness by the lake. All in all, just a great stay. We hope to be back!

About the host

Hosted by Dan Whitehead

Host profile image
Dan & Marnie Whitehead purchased this property in 1998 with the dream of clearing the property enough to put their airstream camper on it until they could build their own cabin. Together with their two young daughters, they accomplished their dream and built the cabin in 2003. They have been working on finishing the cabin by themselves for the past 10 years while enjoying raising their family.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with this property because of the many lakes, parks, festivals and other community events that bring people together! The property is absolutely serene no matter what season!

What makes this property unique

East Leaf Lake not only offers a variety of activities on the lake but also on Leaf River which is also perfect for canoeing, kayaking & fishing. This is an excellent pan-fishing lake with good Walleye, Northern & Large Mouth Bass! The lake is perfect for families as there is low boat traffic on most days.
