The space
Built in 1966, our 1280 square foot cabin is 20’ wide by 36’ length and features Scandinavian design wood work, exposed beams and nostalgic wood paneling classic to the mid-century era. The a-frame has been recently remodeled top to bottom with guests comfort and safety in mind. A mix of mid-century modern and rustic Scandinavian design gives guests a cozy “hygge” vibe.
The cabin interior
The main floor of the cabin features a bedroom, a full bathroom, the kitchen, dining table and family room with a pellet stove and 55” TV. The a-frame was perfectly built to offer the most privacy possible on the back deck while soaking in the view of the lake. The floor to ceiling triangle windows and back deck face east to capture the sunrises. The main floor cabin features real hardwood floors, original green GE vintage stove and newer red SMEG appliances. We have both drip coffee and a Keurig, whatever your preference may be. Our kitchen is fully stocked with all the basic spices, oils, cooking ware, utensils and serving ware. Note: Our fridge does not have an automatic ice maker but we do provide trays for making your own ice. We do not have any window coverings on the living room or kitchen windows, so the sun may be bright in early morning hours. The main floor bedroom features a queen bed, night stands with USB ports in the back of bedside lamps, a dresser and full size closet.
Head upstairs to the upstairs bedroom with the classic vaulted “A” ceiling. This is the largest of the bedrooms and has a queen bed, bedside charging station, dresser, pack-n-play and coat rack. The loft upstairs is perfect for getting cozy with your favorite book, playing a record, practicing yoga or making a drink from the bar. We also have a dedicated work from cabin desk (high speed WiFi provided).
Take the spiral staircase down to the walkout basement where you’ll find another full bathroom, a laundry closet with a full size washer/dryer and three twin beds (one is a pull-out trundle). We’ve designed this lower bedroom with the kids in mind to connect with nature. The wallpaper mural features a photograph from local artist Jake Edwards. We provide plenty of books, toys and board games for kids (and adults) of all ages. The back door will take you underneath the deck to our backyard and horseshoe pit. Please note our walkout basement is open to the living room via the spiral staircase, so noise may carry from living room down to this bedroom area.
All of our bathrooms are equipped with plush spa-like towels, soap, shampoo, conditioner, and lotion for guests. Theres a first aid kit available in the ceiling cubby above the stairs landing.
Exterior
Enjoy BBQing in front of the quintessential “A” with our provided propane grill. Or sit on the back deck soaking in the views. Guests can also lounge under the deck and play a round of horse shoes or relax on the hammock. We provide a variety of outdoor games including giant Jenga, connect four and cornhole. We do provide beach towels, beach chairs and beach toys during the summer months.
