The log sided three bedroom cabin is located on Loon Lake less than 10 minutes from Turtle Lake, WI to the south and Cumberland, WI to the north, which is about an hour from the Twin Cities Metro area. Surrounded by the Loon Lake State Wildlife Area, this north woods getaway is on a wooded point with lakeshore on two sides of the cabin, giving a sense of privacy. The cabin’s open design main floor kitchen, dining and living room offer great views of the lake with the dock and swimming area 25 feet from the patio door. The main floor's knotty pine interior has one bedroom next to the bathroom and a rustic tree branch railing staircase that leads to the two bedrooms on the second level.
The lake water is clear with a mostly sandy bottom, which is great for swimming and other outdoor recreation like fishing and canoeing with frequent sightings of deer, loons and other wildlife. The back bay is not normally used by power boats and pontoons, providing a great backwoods escape for paddlers. The public boat landing is on the south end of the lake. The lake has great fishing for Northern, Large Mouth Bass, Crappies and Sunfish. (View photos for a lake map) The lake is surrounded by public land with trails for hiking, hunting or viewing nature.

Comstock Cheese & Sauage located minutes away from the cabin in Comstock offers an excellent variety of cheese, meats, wines, gifts and best of all ice cream.
