About this property

Secluded Cabin on 13 acres; Private 50 acre lake

Our secluded cabin is nestled inside 13 wooded acres on Mirror Lake. You will enjoy your own private beach on a private lake and there is a 14 x 18 three-seasoned porch providing mosquito-free relaxation day or night. There are a total of nine homes around the lake but for the most part, you will have the lake to yourself. A paddleboard, paddleboat, 3 adult and 2 kiddie kayaks, and a canoe are available for your use. Fishing for crappie, bass, and pike is exceptional. This is a good lake to teach your kids how to fish. The lake is small (50 acres) and is ideal for small boats. If you prefer bigger lakes the Round Lake boat launch is one mile down the road. Enjoy campfires on the beach in comfortable Adirondack chairs, explore the wooded property, and enjoy morning coffee and sunrises on the wrap-around deck.

The Lake:
The water is crystal clear but the bottom is a mix of both sand and mud.
There is a cleared swimming area of approximately 20 x 20 with a sandy bottom near the 'beach'. The lake is about 30 feet deep in the center. We have a 6 x18 water mat (lilypad) that can be pulled out where the water is deep. It's easy to climb on and off while in the water.

The majority of our summer guests are repeat and book privately. From time to time schedules change and dates open up. To get on the notification list simply inquire here on VRBO.

Peace and Quiet
The home was perfect for us. We enjoyed 5 peaceful days with our two dogs. Esther was a pleasure to work with and the property has everything you need. Bonus is the location, and we were fortunate to experience the beautiful fall colors during our time. If you are looking for a relaxing place to escape your busy lives, this is it.

Long Weekend Getaway
This place was great! The setting was even nicer than the pictures could ever portray! It was so private, clean and cozy. We felt right at home. The canoes and kayaks were used each day, and our dog LOVED running back and forth down by the water. The screen room is a nice area to keep the bugs out, but we were pleasantly surprised that even while down by the lake, there were hardly any mosquitoes. We didn’t use the fire pits because it rained at night for 2 of the 3 nights, but they have two fire pits to choose from, one by the house and one by the water. Fishing was way better than we expected too. My youngest caught perch, bluegills, crappies and bass, and my husband and I found the crappies. You can watch dozens of small bluegills right near and under the dock too. Little kids would love this. We made most of our meals during our stay, and they had everything we needed. When we bbq’d steaks, my husband said he wished he had a meat thermometer. Sure enough, they had a meat thermometer! My two teenaged boys put together both puzzles, we found the cribbage board and made good use of that, and…the canoe was even used to retrieve a neighbor’s boat after he capsized! Great memories were made. I would definitely stay here again and would encourage others to do the same. Thank you for sharing your cabin!

Third Time a Charm
This is our 3rd trip to the Northwoods of Wisconsin. And as my husband would say “ best Wisconsin vaca ever!” The Maina’s cabin was everything we could have wanted for our fall vacation trip. Loved everything about it! Our dogs loved it too! Great fishing and town was close for any essentials we did need. Enjoyed the privacy, the campfires and the 3 seasons room! We had our dinners out there every night! The cabin had all the supplies and amenities for a comfortable stay! Would highly recommend!

Great week in the North Woods
This property is wonderful. We loved taking our dog on walks along the path and down by the lake. The weather was a little cold and rainy a couple of days, but the cozy cabin was perfect to cuddle up with a book. It's also just an hour and a half drive to Duluth, which made for a really fun day trip.

Fab Location & Perfect Getaway
Property is simply stunning! Located just 15 mins from downtown Hayward and just a few minutes from Round Lake, it's the perfect location! Lots of great outdoor spots on the property. We especially enjoyed the screen in area that kept those pesky mosquitos away!! Kayaking and paddle boarding on Mirror Lake was simply stunning. And wait to you hear the loons at night! Kitchen area was huge and had every available tool / gadget you could think of! Two bathrooms were plenty big and beds super comfortable. Owner was super communicative and accommodating. Would absolutely choose to stay here again! Internet was a bit slower, but gets the job done as it's the only thing available in the area.
