* NUEVA LISTA * BIRCH BRAE-Amazing House en Big Lake, rodeado de bosques y arte

Birch Brae was a beautiful location for our family and friends’ long weekend getaway. The photographs of the property do not do it justice. It was more stunning in person. For those who love the outdoors, there is so much to do on property and close by. We took advantage of the bicycles and the well-kept trail nearby. We also spent a little time canoeing on Big Lake. We even did a hike around another lake in the area, which we found on one of the maps provided. The kitchen is large and inviting should you want to spend time cooking and chatting with everyone around. There was also more than enough room for our group to sit and eat. We enjoyed our time thoroughly playing euchre and cribbage, roasting s’mores, and relaxing in front of the fireplace.We weren’t fully prepared for the iron-rich water, so be sure to bring bottles or jugs if you are particular. That said, town is not too far, so you can pick up any supplies you may have forgotten. Speaking of water, shower pressure and temperature were good, and there was never a struggle to find an open bathroom in a time of need. We would happily return to this beautiful lake cabin and would recommend it for a family getaway in the north woods.

Great place for family and friends to gather!

Amazing weekend in a beautiful place. Very spacious place with great decor and on an amazing Lake.

Overall impressions in these categories: House: Beautiful. Big enough for our group of 13, kids and adults. Kitchen is more than great. Screened porch is better than good. Dining area large enough we could all eat in the same area. Rec room including table tennis was used a lot.Water: Fishing was slow but that's no one's fault. Kayaks were used a lot everyday. The shallow sandy bottom was amazing for our kids to play and swim in. The dock held our two boats easily. Stairs to water are not intimidating and easily traversed even by this old man. Lake is not too big and not too small.Amenities: Kitchen was well supplied. Kayaks and canoe were well used. Lots of paper towels and toilet paper. Two washers and two dryers. Fire pit worked well and so did the firewood. Plenty of lawn chairs. WiFi worked great. Not sure the Loons came with the house but they were present every day.Misc: Host was very responsive with answers to our questions. Boat landing is very close. Overall Stay: Low cabin density around the lake leads to low boat traffic and a peaceful experience. We had a great time hanging at the house, on the dock, in the water, and boating and fishing the lake. This rental has everything we look for in our yearly Big Trip and we usually go somewhere different every year but this place would be the only one we would consider going back to for another year.

Our family had a wonderful stay at this location. There was plenty of room for the 18 of us to both spread out and come together.
