Quiet-Water Cabin Life at Our Great Escape on Lost Land Lake, Hayward WI. A RentWisconsinCabins.com Listing Partner Since 2017!

Cabintimers, if your heart beats a little slower when waves kiss a sugar-sand shoreline, you’ll feel right at home at Our Great Escape (OGE) on Lost Land Lake. This is a classic Northwoods lakefront home near Hayward, Wisconsin with a twist: it sits on one of the region’s Quiet Lakes. Boats idle. Loons call. Sunsets lean west across Wilson Bay. It’s cabin time, the way it should be.

Location and vibe
Lost Land Lake lies inside the Chequamegon National Forest east of Hayward. It connects to Teal Lake by a gentle channel. The Quiet Lakes carry a 10‑mph speed limit and no wake near shore, so paddlers, swimmers, and anglers rule the day. You can hear the wind in the pines from the screened porch. You can watch stars appear while the fire crackles on the shore. Simple evenings here feel big.

The lakehome
OGE is a four‑bedroom, three‑bath ranch‑style home with an airy great room and a two‑story river‑rock fireplace. Most living is on one level. A cozy loft overlooks the gathering space. Big windows face the water, so the outdoors follows you inside. The kitchen is ready for real meals. A large dining table brings everyone together. Two bedrooms have en‑suite baths, and there’s a third full bath between the remaining bedrooms. Comfort and space mean multi‑generation trips work well.

Beach, dock, and play
The home rests about fifty feet from 183 feet of sugar‑sand beach with weed‑free swimming. The shoreline sits in a protected cove inside Green Point on Wilson Bay. West‑facing views serve up golden hour and honest‑to‑goodness stargazing. A 40‑foot dock with a bench is ready for morning coffee and fish stories. An included 14’ Alumacraft V‑hull sets you up for sunrise trolling or a lazy tour of the bay. Need a bigger boat? A local marina in the same bay offers motor and pontoon rentals just minutes away by water or road.

Why anglers love it
Lost Land Lake is known for musky, walleye, northern pike, largemouth and smallmouth bass, crappie, and bluegill. Slow‑speed rules keep waves down and shorelines quiet. That’s good for young anglers learning to cast, and it’s great for the evening topwater bite. Bring your favorite bucktails and jigs. Keep a camera ready for bald eagles, otters, and loons.

Comforts that matter
This is a licensed, inspected seasonal vacation rental that takes cleanliness seriously. Professional cleaners reset the home between guests, and a laundry service turns linens crisp. There’s central gathering space for rainy‑day card games, plus that screened porch for bug‑free nights. Sorry, no pets.

Seasonal details
OGE hosts Cabintimers late spring through September. Early‑June weeks can be the best value, with cool nights and hungry fish. Mid‑summer means sand‑castle days and warm water. September turns quiet and golden. Plan ahead. Lakeside calendars fill fast on the Quiet Lakes.

Things to do near Hayward
Hayward sits a short drive away with the National Fresh Water Fishing Hall of Fame, local outfitters, and Main Street shops. Watch world‑class pros cut, roll, and run during Hayward’s summer lumberjack shows. Golfers can swing at Big Fish Golf Club, a Pete Dye design. Trail fans can hit the CAMBA singletrack or cruise rolling forest roads. When you want a change of water, paddle a section of the Namekagon River, part of the St. Croix National Scenic Riverway. Evenings are for a classic Northwoods supper club, where Friday fish fry and an old fashioned just make sense.

Why this stay works for Cabintimers
You want space for your crew. You want a real beach your kids can wade. You want quiet water, not a parade of jet skis. You want a dock, a porch, and a kitchen that can handle pancakes and shore lunch. That mix is rare. OGE checks those boxes with room to spare.

Book direct and save
Skip platform markups. Book directly with the owner at Our Great Escape for no service fees and the kind of local insight only owners can share. Ask about seasonal openings, best weeks for swimming or musky, and where to launch kayaks on a calm morning. Direct is better. No middleman.

Trip‑planning nuggets
Bring water shoes for the kids even though the beach is sandy. Pack binoculars for eagles. Plan one sunset paddle and one early‑morning coffee on the dock. Grab your trail shoes and a bike rack if you ride. Save a day for Hayward’s hall‑of‑fame selfie inside the giant musky. Simple rituals like these become the stories you tell next winter.

Ready to be a Cabintimer on the Quiet Lakes? Start here, breathe deep, and let the shoreline set your pace.

Silver Lake Home in Traverse City: Lakefront living for Cabintimers who love kayaks, campfires, and pure Michigan water. A RentMichiganCabins.com listing partner since 2017.

Silver Lake Home in Traverse City: Lakefront living for Cabintimers who love kayaks, campfires, and pure Michigan water. A RentMichiganCabins.com listing partner since 2017.

Silver Lake Home does that magic trick where time slows down and your shoulders finally drop. This four-bedroom, two-bath waterfront home near Traverse City puts you right on a spring-fed, 600-acre lake that’s famously clear and deep—perfect for early-morning paddles and golden-hour swims. With space for up to 12, it’s set up for multi-family trips, cousins’ camp, or your crew’s annual up-north tradition.

Inside, the kitchen brings the goods for real cooking—granite counters, dishwasher, microwave, and the rare double-fridge setup that keeps local cherries cold and the brats ready for grill duty. A walkout lower level flows to the stone patio where the gas grill and built-in fire pit face the water, so nobody has to choose between tending dinner and catching that cotton-candy sunset. The living spaces are clean and well cared for, with a big screen for movie nights after the embers fade.

Bedrooms are arranged to make group logistics easy: two queen bedrooms, a third with two queens, and a fourth with double-size bunks. Two full baths mean fewer lines and more lake time. Central A/C and Wi-Fi keep everyone comfortable and connected, but the real draw is outside—step down to your private dock and a small beach cove that’s gentle for little swimmers and convenient for launching the included kayaks.

Silver Lake cabin is on an all-sports lake, so bring the boat or rent one nearby for wake-surf mornings and tube-tow laughter. Anglers can chase bluegill, perch, bass, walleye, and pike, then make quick work of the catch at the on-site fish cleaning station. When you’re ready to roam, you’re minutes to downtown Traverse City for farm-to-table bites, craft breweries, and boutique browsing. The region is a playground: hit the TART Trail by bike, plan a tasting loop on Old Mission Peninsula, and spend a day tackling the long views and sandy climbs at Sleeping Bear Dunes. Interlochen is close for a concert under the pines; Glen Arbor, Empire, and Leland reward curiosity with beaches, galleries, and smoked-fish runs that turn into impromptu picnics. When the snow flies, swap swimsuits for skis—Nordic trails, downhill turns, and snowmobile routes remake the landscape into a winter playground.

Cabintimers who appreciate straight-talk scheduling will like this: weekly, Saturday-to-Saturday bookings are standard from mid-June through August; shorter stays are possible the rest of the year, and the home rents year-round. No pets and non-smoking keeps it fresh for the next arrival. Because you book directly with the owner, you get real local guidance—where to launch, which dunes overlook is the quietest at sunrise, and the can’t-miss bakery run before a day on the water—plus no middleman fees. That’s the Cabin Time way.

Ready to start planning? Check availability and reach out to the owner through the Silver Lake Home listing on RentMichiganCabins.com to book direct. Ask about the best coves for kayaking on calm mornings, which Traverse City festival lines up with your dates, or the closest put-in for a sunset cruise. Then pack the marshmallows and a second swimsuit—you’ll use both.

Holiday Harbor Cabin: Private Lynx Lake Escape with Your Own Launch, Dock, and Backup Power. Now Taking Direct Bookings on RentWisconsinCabins.com!

Holiday Harbor Cabin: Private Lynx Lake Escape with Your Own Launch, Dock, and Backup Power. Now Taking Direct Bookings on RentWisconsinCabins.com!

If you’re looking for a true Northwoods stay where mornings begin with glassy water and loons, meet Holiday Harbor Cabin in Eagle River, Wisconsin. This two-room, two‑bath cabin sits a few steps from the shoreline on Lynx Lake—at the northern tip of the famous Eagle River Chain. Cabintimers get rare perks here: a private boat launch and dock just outside the door, sandy, gradual frontage that’s perfect for swimming, pet‑friendly stays, and a whole‑home backup generator so your vacation doesn’t skip a beat if the power flickers.

Why Cabintimers love this cabin

  • You get the place to yourself. There’s only one rental on the property—no shared fire pit, grill, or shoreline. Spread out, unplug, and let the lake set your schedule.
  • Bring the boat—or rent one. Launch your fishing boat or pontoon on‑site, tie up at your private, powered dock, or have a rental delivered right to the pier. No crowded public ramps, no scrambling for slips.
  • Sandy swim area. The shoreline steps down just an inch or two to clear, shallow water with a gentle slope—great for kids and lazy floats.
  • Stay connected when others can’t. The backup generator keeps water hot, lights on, internet streaming (HBO, Showtime, Starz, more), A/C humming, and the coffee brewing.
  • Easy sleeping for couples or small families. A queen Murphy bed with a Serta Perfect Sleeper, a queen sleeper sofa, plus a twin daybed with trundle.
  • Dog‑friendly. Well‑behaved pups are welcome—call for details.
  • Complimentary rowboat with oars and life vests so you can sneak out for sunrise casts or sunset paddles.
  • Full kitchen & outdoor cooking. Gas range/oven, microwave, coffee maker, cookware, plus a gas grill, picnic table, and lakeside seating.

Where you’re staying

Holiday Harbor sits on Lynx Lake, part of the storied Eagle River Chain, a gateway to endless water. Step onto your dock and you’re minutes from classic Northwoods scenes: mornings dripping with mist, eagles tracing the treeline, and the soft hush of pines. Musky, walleye, bass, and panfish lure anglers out early; paddlers hug the shoreline to watch turtles slide from logs; swimmers post up by that sandy edge and call it a day.

What to do nearby (besides floating all afternoon)

  • Fish & boat the Chain. Explore link‑by‑link, stop for lunch by boat, or drift a weedline. Guides in Eagle River can help you target trophy muskies or introduce new anglers to the fun.
  • World Championship Derby Complex. In winter, Eagle River roars to life during the historic snowmobile races. Tour the grounds, visit during race weekends, and hop on meticulously groomed trail systems that spiderweb across Vilas County.
  • Three Eagle Trail. Bike or hike this scenic route connecting Eagle River and Three Lakes through forests and wetlands—blazing colors in fall.
  • Nicolet National Forest. Trail‑rich public land east of town for hiking, birding, snowshoeing, and quiet exploration.
  • Downtown Eagle River. Scoop old‑fashioned candy, browse outfitters, and fuel up at supper clubs that feel like time capsules.
  • Cranberry season. Come fall, tour local marshes, grab cranberry goodies, and chase peak color around the lakes.

Practical info Cabintimers always ask

  • Weekly stays, Saturday changeover.
  • Fast Wi‑Fi (wired + wireless) and free streaming channels (plus a Roku).
  • Two bathrooms, each with a shower—no waiting in line after a swim.
  • Fire pit for lakeside s’mores (bring wood from within 25 miles).
  • Parking for your trailer and easy in‑and‑out at the private launch.

Book direct and keep it local

Skip the big‑box booking fees and talk to the folks who know the shoreline best. When you book directly with the owner, you avoid service fees, get the most accurate availability, and tap into local knowledge—from “where they’re biting” to “which supper club has the best Friday fish fry.”

Birch Bay Resort: Classic Minnesota cabin life on Wabana Lake. A RentMinnesotaCabins.com Listing Partner Since 2013!

If your heart beats a little faster at the words “pine shoreline,” “panfish bite,” and “evening s’mores,” Birch Bay Resort near Grand Rapids, Minnesota is calling your name. Tucked along the clear waters of the Wabana Chain, this laid-back property brings back the best parts of cabin tradition—sand between your toes, a fish fry on the deck, and quiet mornings watching loons—without giving up modern comforts. Cabintimers, this is where simple days make the best stories.

Birch Bay Resort sits on Wabana Lake in the Chippewa National Forest, a chain famous for crystal-clear water, healthy walleye and smallmouth populations, and long, tree-lined vistas. The shoreline here is largely wild, so paddles and pontoon rides feel extra peaceful. Expect easy access to fishing, swimming, and sunset campfires just steps from your cabin door.

Cabins made for easy living

Every unit is lakefront or has a lake view—so you’re never far from the water. Kitchens are fully equipped, Wi-Fi is available, and each cabin has its own charcoal grill and deck or patio for slow breakfasts and post-adventure hangouts. Docks and a private concrete boat ramp keep boat days simple, and there’s a canoe, kayaks, and paddle boats for splash-around afternoons. Families will appreciate the swingset, plus a fish-cleaning house and live wells for the anglers in your crew. Grocery service can even take one errand off your list.

Room for two—or your whole crew

From the cozy Birch Suite (hello king-size bed for two) to the spacious Log Cottage that sleeps up to 16, you can size your stay to your group. Popular standouts include Cabin Four on the point—windows gazing right at the water—and the two-story Birch Perch with premium finishes. Many layouts add futons or bunks for flexible sleeping, and large decks are built for grilling after a day on the lake.

Things to do around Grand Rapids

When you’re not on the water, explore the region’s rich northwoods culture:

  • Forest History Center — Step into a 1900s logging camp with interactive exhibits and trails. Kids (and grown-ups) love it.
  • Wabana Chain day trips — Paddle to Bluewater, Little Trout, and Historic Trout Lake, home to the storied Joyce Estate ruins along the shore.
  • Children’s Discovery Museum — Hands-on learning that’s perfect for a rainy-day break.
  • Hill Annex Mine State Park — Tours, a scenic overlook, and even fossil hunts offer a peek into Iron Range history.

Back at your Minnesota resort, it’s about bikes on the path, sand-castle contests, and campfire chats that go a little too late. Simple is the point.

Why Cabintimers book direct here

Skip third-party fees and connect with local owners who actually know where the walleyes are hitting and which trail dries out first after a rain. Direct booking means better communication, more value, and those insider tips you can’t get from a call center.

Ready to make it happen?

Check availability, pick your cabin, and start planning sunrise coffee on the deck. Your Wabana Lake story starts at the source—book directly with Birch Bay Resort.

Beach Days, Craft Time, and Loons at Dusk

SweetWater’s clean, gradual-slope swimming area is made for sandcastles and splash time, while the Gathering Space offers creative projects like stone art and stepping stones for rainy afternoons or chill mornings. Evenings are easy: roast s’mores and listen for loons before bed.

Why Fish Trap Lake Hooks Cabintimers

With more than 1,100 acres, Fish Trap Lake holds walleye, northern pike, largemouth and smallmouth bass, crappie, and more. Launch a dawn patrol for walleye, work weedlines for pike, or slide into quiet coves for panfish with the kids. Public access and docks make getting on the water simple.

Minutes to Tee Times and Day Trips

Got golfers in the group? Pine Ridge Golf Club in Motley is a short drive—18 holes, friendly rates, and a pretty north woods layout.

With 700 acres to roam (max depth ~42 feet), bring the boat or rent one nearby and spend the day hopping between coves. When the wind dies at sunset, the water turns to glass—perfect for a lazy paddle.

Sturgeon River Front and Center: Sidell’s Log Cabin in Indian River, MI. A Listing Partner on RentMichiganCabins.com Since 2017!
by

Sturgeon River Front and Center: Sidell’s Log Cabin in Indian River, MI. A Listing Partner on RentMichiganCabins.com Since 2017!

Cabintimers, meet your Up North basecamp on the water. Sidell’s Sturgeon River Log Cabin puts you right on one of Michigan’s beloved blue‑ribbon trout streams, minutes from Burt Lake and an easy hop to Petoskey, Harbor Springs, and Mackinac Island. The setting is woodsy and quiet. The river soundtrack is constant. The memories come easy.

This custom cedar log cabin was built for gathering. Four bedrooms, three full baths, a fun loft, and two living areas mean the whole crew can spread out. Sleep up to 12 without stepping on toes. Pets are considered, so bring the four‑legged explorer, too. Mornings start slow on the big back deck with coffee and river views. Evenings finish around the stone fire pit right on the bank—s’mores, stars, and the Sturgeon flowing by.

Inside, a chef’s kitchen keeps the group well‑fed: high‑end stainless appliances, a big prep island, and everything you need to cook family favorites. After a day outside, sink into the sofa for a movie night or rally in the lower‑level game room. There’s Wi‑Fi and cable when you want it, but you might just opt for the cedar sauna—pure bliss after paddling, fishing, or snowmobiling.

You’re steps from Trail #7 and the North Central State Trail for four‑season fun. In summer and fall, launch kayaks, tubes, or canoes and float past the cabin. Fly anglers target browns and steelhead right out back. Prefer lake days? Devoe Beach on Burt Lake is a short drive, and a labyrinth of connected waterways—Burt, Mullett, Crooked, and beyond—opens up boating, swimming, and sandbar picnics.

Winter flips the script. Boyne Highlands, Boyne Mountain, and Nubs Nob bring downhill thrills. Sleds and snowmobiles take off from the trailhead just down the lane. Come back rosy‑cheeked, fire up the grill, and warm up in the sauna. Repeat tomorrow.

Indian River makes trip planning easy. Stock up at local markets, then explore favorite Up North towns: browse Petoskey stone shops, sip around area wineries, and catch live theater or festivals. Big Bear Adventures in town handles river trips and mini‑golf for the kids. Day‑trip to Mackinac Island for bikes and fudge, then return to your river retreat for a peaceful night by the fire.

Cabintimer tips:

• Bring waders if you fly fish—the Sturgeon is clear, quick, and loaded with structure.
• Pack yard games; the lawn between the deck and river is perfect for a cornhole showdown.
• Peak summer stays are weekly, so lock in your dates early. Booking direct means the best price and direct access to the owner’s local know‑how.

Ready to plan it? Skip service fees and book this Indian River vacation rental directly with the owner at RentMichiganCabins.com. You’ll get quick answers about gear, trailheads, and where to find that secret swimming hole.
