We loved our stay in Sawyer County. The house was in a private setting - just outside of Hayward. Very clean and comfortable. We came up to go riding our ATVs. It worked out great to ride from the house every day.

In the area for a wedding
Overall, our stay was great! the property was clean, secluded. It offered a comfortable space where we could include our dog to relax and enjoy our stay and visit with family. We drove 11 hours from IN to Hayward WI. When we arrived, we couldn't locate the property because the driveway looks like it was part of "East ST" and could not view house from the road. The folks at the Kennel were super helpful and friendly. On day two our dog got loose while we were at the wedding event and the folks at the Kennel caught him, secured him safely, and Jordan notified us. We were looking forward to using the firepit, however the weather kept us inside. Only thing I would request to be improved upon would be more towels offered, (only 2 in the master bathroom) maybe extra blankets or throws for extra comfort on cool damp days, please offer laundry detergent and cleaning supplies. When I usually stay at a property, I have all sheets/towels and property cleaned before I leave. Or add to listing that those things are not provided, and I could have prepared better.

Sparkling clean, great location
We loved the privacy and quietness of the property. The yard was great for letting the dogs play and having fires or sitting on deck. Yet it was only a short, easy drive from Hayward. The house itself was very clean, well stocked and we had plenty of room. We enjoyed the complimentary coffee bar.

Nice Property
We enjoyed a nice stay over Labor Day weekend with family. The prperty was very clean and well maintained. It was located in a secluded location and very peaceful. Even though it was secluded it was only a few minutes drive to downtown Hayward. The only disappointment was even thogh they had wi-fi, we had no internet service during our entire stay. 😒 Owning my own business, having to use my cell phone for everything was a challenge and ate up a lot of minutes! The hosts were quick to respond to our questions about the internet and apologetic. The check in process was a bit "techie." The host sent a link to an app that had to be downloaded. You then had to create an account in order to use the app to be able to lock and unlock the door. Had it been only my elderly mother and older sister staying not so sure they would have figured out how to use!😁 This is minor, and just a suggestion to the host, a roll of paper towels would have been useful, also a full length mirror. Women like to see how they look from head to toe!

Nature Retreat
My family and I were impressed with the property of this house. It was close enough to Hayward, but far enough away to feel like we were in the middle of a forest. We all wanted to take the house with us when we went back home. It had the perfect layout, more than enough beds, and 2 bathrooms! And we so appreciated the S'mores welcome basket, yum! We will be staying here again in the future!!

Nice location, very comfortable accommodations
We stayed here with another couple for 3 nights to do some UTV trail riding. We really enjoyed the backyard firepit in the evening after riding. We found the beds to be very comfortable, and loved that there were two bathrooms, each with a shower. The kitchen had everything we need to cook our breakfasts each morning. The home was pleasantly decorated, had comfortable furniture to lounge indoors and was very clean. We appreciated that Jordan came by before we left on our last day to meet us and ask about our stay. We had a wonderful time!

Quiet get away near Hayward WI.
We stayed 5 nights while moving across country. The house was comfortable, dog-friendly, in a secluded wooded area but still easy access to town and highway. Hosts resolved a hornet nest problem quickly, and were friendly & responsive throughout our stay. A nice stay in an area that has few vrbo's with enough beds for our family.
