We had booked this property well in advance for a family vacation. Walking into this house made us awe struck! The pictures are great, but don't quite do the justice it deserves. It makes you feel like you are at home. Every appliance, kitchen item, and space for everything is right there. The other features that caught my eye were that the house is decorated like the owners live there full-time. Most VRBO's seem to take out all the nice decorations- not this house. Keeping nice things in the house for us to enjoy made it feel cozy. It was perfect for entertaining our family of 10 adults with room to spread out. The pool table was a nice option for when the weather wasn't perfect for outdoor activities. The outdoor space, outdoor equipment and amenities left plenty to do as well. Check-in and check-out was easy. If we had to do laundry, everything was supplied. The only thing I recommend is to bring an extra set of paper products as they are given as an initial courtesy, but it is the guests duty to replenish them once they are out. This minor inconvenience did not warrant NOT giving it 5 stars!!! We will definitely consider this property in the future and so should you!

The property was better than we expected. It was clean, updated, yet rustic. The view of the lake was pristine. Although the water and air were cold for July it did not stop us from having a fabulous northern experience in this beautiful home.

The log home is definitely nicer than the pictures. We enjoyed boating, tubing, swimming, fishing and relaxing during our week stay. The amenities were great. Many family members enjoyed the paddle board and the kayak. Our accommodations comfortably fit all fourteen family members. Every evening had a cool lake breeze, and more windows with screens facing the lake would have even made our stay much better.

Beautiful log and stone home, well stocked kitchen, and comfortable beds, even though it rained most of the weekend there were plenty of things to keep us entertained. Thanks for letting us use your lovely cabin, we'll try to make it back next year.

We rented this house for a father and son trip and it was perfect.First, the house and property are simply stunning. Kathryn was very quick to reply to any questions we had. It was amazing all of the different amenities the house had from basic spices, cooking utensils, coolers, the list goes on. The location of the house in a back bay was so nice and great fire pit. Their grill is massive and worked great for us. We hopefully be returning in the future.

Our overall experience was very good. The house handled our large family well. We enjoyed the gathering places, private dock and large yard a lot. House was well stocked, except for toilet paper, hand soap in sinks and large shower towels. The master bedrooms were very nice. Screens on the other bedroom windows would be nice as some of the bedrooms got a little hot. Couldn't open the bedroom windows as bugs could get in without the screens. Or central air if that's possible. The view and area were awesome and we would definitely recommend to others and would book again.

House O Logs has everything a family would want. The house itself is amazing and plenty of room for everyone. The dock and beach are great for water sports and fishing (kids caught fish off the dock) and the immaculately maintained lawn was great for family soccer, corn hole (supplied) and just plain running around. The owner Kathryn was very accomodating and available for any questions. 30 minutes to Ely and the Sudan Mine is about 20 minutes away and worth a visit. Boats can be rented close and the Y store and Zups in Tower have everything you might need. The house construction is amazing!! The property is also very private with no neighbors visible...except from the dock. We HIGHLY recommend!!

The cabin is absolutely beautiful. The logs are gorgeous and the room sizes were great. The owner is wonderful to work with. The reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 was because I thought some of the amenities were lacking. For example I thought the beach chairs were kinda cheap. They were thin plastic chairs and most were broken. The kitchen towels were old and stained, I ended up buying my own. Normally I wouldn't have a big problem with any of this but when I pay top dollar I expect those items would be top of the line. Overall we had a wonderful stay. The location is amazing and the loons were great. I would definitely stay again.

We had a great time at this property! We stayed with 6 adults and 4 children (ages 5 years - 10 months). Everyone was able to have their own space and spread out. The bay this house is on is quiet and pristine. We had a couple of loons (plus one baby) greet us a few times a day! The kitchen was well equipped and we appreciated the additional refrigerator around the corner in the laundry room as well as pantry. The kids LOVED the large backyard space, beach, and fishing right off the dock! The adults enjoyed beverages on the deck at night and the comfy living room chairs. We were excited to use the canoe at the boat house as well. The owner is very communicative and quick to respond to messages. We also talked about how great the property would be in the winter time as well! Thanks for a great stay for all.

Really enjoyed our stay. Great big house with a yard that the kids loved. Clean, cozy and really great for escaping with a big family for a week long vacation on the lake. Thanks again for everything Kathryn!

We had an extended weekend planned with family and this rental did not disappoint. Not only is the home absolutely beautiful, but the cabin is stocked with games and activities for rain or shine. My only advice is to bring your own stuff if you're worried about child proofing i.e. gates and play pens.

The executive log home was what was advertised. We made group dinners, ate at the large dining room table and watched football near the fire place. We had a mis-hap with one of our cars' tires and the owner generously showed up with an air compressor which solved the situation. The bedrooms were nice and we enjoyed the up north woods sauna.

My family and I really enjoyed our week at this cabin! The place was very clean and accommodated our family very well. The kitchen has everything you would need. The location in a quiet bay is ideal. There is a very nice deck with a great little place to eat outside that is not pictured here as well. I would highly recommend and we are already considering booking again!

I just assumed that a high end property would include paper towels and toilet paper, so for future renters it would be great to let them know ahead of time. Sleeping was a little warm with just fans as the daytime temps were unusually warm. Bunk house had no indoor plumbing so the kids weren’t interested in sleeping there.

Overall the property is nice however it does not have air conditioning and only a few windows have screens, this makes it very hard to cool down at night without filling the house with mosquitos. Even when there was a breeze on the lake it could not be taken advantage of due to the lack of screens. In, addition the owner is not the easiest person to deal with, we paid an outlandish event fee to have an event at this house and to cover additional cleaning fees, even after cleaning much more then would be required for such a fee we were charged another cleaning fee after we had left. While the house is nice the hassle caused by the owner made the experience less enjoyable.

We loved the property location. The front yard had plenty of space for yard games. The stairways were difficult for our 85 year old parent to navigate. The openness made for sound to be heard throughout the house. This is a beautiful home but it was not ideal for our family.

Impressed would be a understatement. The property was better than expected. There more than enough space space for the 7 in our party and the house is full of amenities and things to do. Will definitely look for an opportunity to bring our families next time. Kathryn was very quick to respond and flexible with all of our requests. I would highly recommend this property if you’re looking for a true getaway from the city life.

This property is truly amazing and the cabin is spectacular. More then enough room for a larger group of 8-12. Kathryn was great through the entire process. Northern Minnesota is beautiful this time of year. The cabin is in a great spot for fishing and a world class golf course is near by. Great experience!
