The cabin was lovely. Deb is an amazing hostess. The cabin had everything from cooking pans to shampoo, conditioner and body wash in the bathroom. There is a large mowed lawn, lawn chairs, fire ring and wood to burn. We loved this cabin .

Perfect for us!

Communication with Deb was excellent, easy check in, everything was as listed and perfect for us. We saw the twin fawns in the front yard one evening and then another deer a while later. Location worked well for us. Hope to stay again when we are in the area.

Cozy and simple

For the price of about 104 a night, we felt that we got what we paid for. The cabin was in a great location and was cozy inside - the up north cabin vibe you’d expect! The living space provided a comfortable spot to lounge with a few people or kick back in one of the recliners and the kitchen had a small table you could sit at if desired. The beds were also comfortable. Deb, the host, was an excellent communicator and very thoughtful in turning the heat on before our arrival since the weather had taken a turn. Everything was meticulously clean upon our arrival and check in was smooth. Some things to note: Neither of the bedrooms had doors on them, only curtains, which I didn’t remember seeing in the listing. Be sure to bring cooking spray or oil as there wasn’t any and the pans were older. Only two of the four pillows on my bed actually felt like they still had enough stuffing in them so luckily we had brought the kids’ pillows for them sleeping on the sofa bed.For the price per night, which was during the off-season, I felt that it was worth the value overall and would recommend the cabin to future guests.

Perfect up north cozy cabin

Exactly what we needed for a 3 night stay up north. 3 adult men stayed in this location, and with the pull out couch we all had our own beds. Everything was clean, the owner was easy to communicate with, and we'd stay there again without hesitation.

Classic up north cabin. Had a nice stay for a wedding in town. The only thing to note is that there are curtains not doors on the bedroom - not a problem just something to know.

Relaxing get away

This place is a perfect get away for the family and a fun return to hubbard lake after 5 years. The property manager is extremely friendly and attentive, house is extremely clean and organized, overall good place to stay to explore hubbard lake and/or to just relax. Will probably book again on our next visit to the area.
