Very Private Cabin on Upper Twin Lake...Great Views...Close to Trails!

Built as a winter or summer escape for a couple or small family, this beautiful four season cabin is a great way to experience the Northwoods of Wisconsin and Hayward area. The home is very private and has great access to the lake, and nearby trails.

The cabin sits on 3.5 acres with 350 feet of frontage on Upper Twin Lake, making for a very private experience. The surroundings and views are very natural. The house itself is of the classic Northwoods archetype: 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, wood fireplace, and ample kitchen, living, porch, and deck space. The kitchen has all the essentials, the bedrooms are cozy, and the fireplace (high-efficiency) will keep you warm at night.

We've made the outside space as enjoyable as possible with a fire pit (firewood provided), picnic area, and dock for your boat. There is a large swim raft 70 yards from dock (take the canoe) in 10-13 feet of spring fed water.

The home is located on the northeastern tip of Upper Twin Lake. The lake is noted for it's great musky and bass fishing, and clear, spring-fed waters. It is also big and deep enough for water skiing and tubing. Upper Twin connects to Lower Twin and the Tiger Cat Flowage, so there is a lot of water to explore. Bird watching is exceptional. Expect to see ducks, geese, swans, and sandhill cranes in the marshy bay in front of the cabin throughout the year. A family of otters doing cute otter things makes an appearance from time to time!

If you are looking to relax in private with your loved ones, this place exudes family time. Whether it is canoeing on the lake, boating to the Blackiron Bar for a burger, catching some fresh fish for dinner, biking the forest roads, or reading on the porch, you will be able to relax undisturbed in this unique Northwoods retreat.

Winter is a very special time here. Whether it is a snowshoe down the shore of the lake, ice fishing, an XC ski session on the famous Birkie trail (5 minutes away), or a weekend of snowmobiling...winter is a great! Try visiting in winter...you will be glad you did!

With the famous resort town of Hayward just 12 miles away you can choose from a variety of world class attractions, restaurants, and shops. There are also several bars, restaurants, and supper clubs within a 3 mile radius.

Sister’s Lake Vacation

What a beautiful cabin and property! Chris and I were in awe the moment we drove up to the property, went down to the dock and went inside the cabin! It looked exactly like their pictures, clean and spacious, just beautiful! There is plenty of room to spread out and we had a fire every night inside as cool the 2nd week of June! We ventured out in the canoe on the lake, going to the sandy beach island. The best fishing was just out from the cabin, my sis catching 2 - 5 lb. bass and by the island to the left of the cabin.A word of wisdom to those who want to go in the water by the dock, don’t!!! Lol! We had brought our kayaks, getting in off the dock. I tipped mine, ending up in the water and sunk in mud up to my thighs! It took a bit to get out, but I was laughing by the time I got out! When you get out by the swim raft and beyond, the water is clear and deep! We want to come back again already but need a full week next time! Thank you for sharing your piece of Northwoods heaven!
A beautiful bass!
Caught back view and front view with coordinates!

Lovely stay at Mellow Marsh

We have nothing but wonderful things to say about this property. We have spent over 25 years vacationing in northern MN and WI at resorts and this was our first rental of a private cabin. Beautifully maintained property inside and out. On a quiet marsh that takes you to the lake, so we saw an eagle, loons, ducks, geese, and heron along with all kinds of other wildlife. Clean cabin with a well equipped kitchen and dry wood for the fireplace (rare in our experience). Great to have space between our cabin and neighbors so quiet and private. Very responsive owner. Plan to return next year!

Charming cabin on quiet lake

I and a friend had a lovely writers' retreat on this lakeside cabin with a beautiful view and a fireplace. The host responded quickly to our questions, and we felt as comfortable as if we were at home. A beautiful view from the porch and within easy driving distance from the Twin Cities.

Breathtaking views!

We decided last minute to get away for a quick, midweek relaxation trip. We now wish we’d booked this cabin for a week! Check-in was a breeze, the cabin was spotless, and the western facing view of the lake was gorgeous at every hour of the day. The cabin is set back on a picturesque, tree-framed road with little to no traffic. We enjoyed morning walks with our coffee, and late nights around the campfire with our cocktails. (All firewood was provided!) We just can’t say enough great things about this place! Thanks for a great stay - we will definitely be back!

Great!- As described and what I expected

Very much enjoyed this house on upper twin lakes. Beautiful scenery, lake views and peace and quiet. The house was accurately described and all the pictures depicted what we saw and experienced. Communication was responsive and had no issues or unanswered questions regarding arrival. The beautiful weather, 80 in late September showcased the property,well but made for a tough Musky bite.

Beautiful and quiet location on the lake. Cabin was wonderful and had more than we needed. Grounds were perfect down to the lake and very tranquil. A canoe and paddleboards were available for use, we just didn't have a chance to use them but would in the future. Property manager was always very responsive. Highly recommend.
