Lake home on beautiful private lake, 15 miles from downtown Hayward, WI

Nestled among north woods pines, this chalet-style lake home is a 4-season retreat. The privacy and tranquility of this home is a rare find for vacationers.

House sits on 4 wooded acres on the shores of Ole Lake in Hayward. This crystal clear water lake is perfect for boating, fishing, swimming, paddle boarding, canoeing, and kayaking. This home offers 200 feet of private lake frontage.

Because it is private, Ole Lake is "underfished." It's loaded with musky, northern pike, bass and pan fish. There is no public boat access to Ole Lake. Therefore, we provide our 22-ft pontoon boat exclusively for your use for a separate fee. Boat is not in the water between late October until some time in May.

Also, if you wish to bring your own boat, there is easy public boat access to nearby lakes: Lost Land, Teal, Round, Spider, Lac Courte Oreilles, etc.

Home is located 1/2 mile from Lost Land Lake Lodge, known for Hayward's best fish fry, where you can enjoy great food and drink with incredible views of Lost Land Lake.

Lake home has 4 bedrooms. Upstairs bedroom has a Queen size bed, and the 2 bedrooms on the main floor also have Queen size beds. There is also a set of twin bunk beds in the finished area of the basement. Finally, there is a couch/fold down futon which can also be used as a bed. For your convenience, there is a full bath on each of the 3 levels.

This property is connected to miles of trails for cross-country skiing, snowmobiles, ATVs, bicycles, etc. Ski and snowmobile straight from the yard.

Located just 15 miles from downtown Hayward, this retreat offers the best combination of privacy and convenience.

Perfect getaway for couples or families with children. No pets, please. This is a pet free/smoke free home.

This is a beautiful house! We loved the view of the lake from the house, the deck facing the lake and wrapping around the side, the patio off the deck, for an early morning cup of coffee and chatting or a glass of wine in the evening watching dark settle and lights across the lake come on. For us, 3 bathrooms is a BIG plus! There's a big screen TV where we watched a few shows. There's a water/ice maker on the refrigerator with delicious water! The island worked well for us to set out breakfast or evening snacks. And there's a big table, with plenty of chairs, for when we played games. Loved that there was a Keurig there for quick, hot cups of coffee and it works with the refillable pods! There was a good supply of dishes, glassware and flatware. There are a lot of mounted animals and fish, if that would bother you. But, most of us have hubby's who are hunters and fisherman, so it didn't bother us at all. We didn't use the boat........we just needed a place to relax and catch up with each other's lives. This fit the bill perfectly!

Thankful that Julie and Kevin share their vacation home!
This property is just beautiful! This lake home has everything you want in a VRBO: The kitchen has everything you need to cook wonderful meals. The furnishings and decor are awesome. We loved noticing something new each day. The beds are comfortable and all rooms are spotlessly clean. The outdoor area is so relaxing and beautifully landscaped. We enjoyed boating, fishing, and swimming in the lake. Biking the country roads is easy. You can walk to Lost Land Lake Lodge for dinner. Hayward is a wonderful area to vacation with many lakes, restaurants, a brewery, a few wineries, and a nice downtown area. Thank you Julie and Kevin for sharing your home, and communicating with us so easily and efficiently. We had a GREAT time!

Beautiful Cabin and Location
Great location. One of the best stocked homes we have stated at. Close to gas station for fueling our ATV's. Nice little lake, we caught a few fish. The owners we great to work with, very quick response with any question I had for them. We didnt have to trailer to get to any trails. Hayward is a great town to explore.

Long cloudy days by the fireplace.
This year was a crazy year for the weather. But, this house never disappoints. We snuggled in for a 5 day weekend by the fireplace, with a good book, and a couple of movies. The owners of this beautiful home have so much to offer just inside their doors. We will return for many more years to come. Thank you

We couldn't have asked for a better stay. The private lake was very peaceful, and the setting couldn't be more ideal. The home was beautiful and very comfortable. Being out on the pontoon and seeing the family of loons was great! A couple of us were also lucky enough to see the otters one quiet morning. Kevin and Julie made everything easy, and this is a must stay!

Quiet and relaxing outside a fun little town.
This place is beautiful. Quiet. Relaxing. Not too far from town. There are several bars/grilles close by. The lake was quiet. We only saw 2 other people on the lake over the 4 days we were there. Our party were beginner fishers so we didn't catch anything major, but there are notable fish in the lake. The property manager Kevin was extremely helpful. He gave us several recommendations for places to eat, see, etc. Very accommodating. Overall our party was happy with our stay. We definitely would recommend this place.

Wonderful mini vacation
We were only able to stay three nights, but managed to fill it with many fun times. The cabin and property were immaculate, beds were comfortable. You definitely are secluded at this property and things would be totally peaceful except there is a new cabin being constructed next door. Nothing that was too terrible though. Lake was very nice for swimming. We didn't have much luck with the fishing, but we're mainly fishing from the dock (only took pontoon out once). Firepit area in the woods was very nice, and the stars at night were so cool to see versus what you see back in the city. Communication with the owners was very good. Would definitely rent from them again!

Peaceful Relaxation
We loved our stay. The house was extremely comfortable - from the layout to the furniture/beds to the beautiful outdoor surroundings. The communal areas (kitchen, great room, etc) were perfect when we were all together as a family-- while the 3 floors of bedrooms & bathrooms gave everyone space to themselves.

The house was amazing and Kevin and Julie were great hosts. We appreciate the attention to detail of the house. The house was just right for my wife, my 3 sons and their families. Plenty of room and privacy, but common areas able to accommodate meals and game nights. The outside areas were spacious and well maintained. It was nice to be able to be outside without the bugs being too much.

Beautiful cabin! Set in a private lot, with all the amenities you need. Kevin and Julie were VERY responsive and helped with any questions we had about the cabin or surrounding area.. Great Fish Fry at Lost Land Lake Lodge! We had 6 adults and 2 kids under the age of 9 and we all had plenty of room to relax. We also found some nice deep areas in the lake to cool off and swim. Thanks Kevin and Julie for a great stay.
