Jake at the Lake
We and our Labrador Retriever Jake stayed 9 evenings and throughly enjoyed this home. Every window at the back of the cabin showcases a view of the serene lake, from the dining room to the living room to the primary bedroom. We relaxed and even worked a few days given the fiber-optic internet. The sandy beach is perfect for lounging and mere steps from the beautifully clear lake where you can see the bottom. The kitchen is terrifically outfitted for cooking. Within 15 minutes, the location has access to incredible day-hiking trails and a distillery we visited more than once. Our trip pooped out our puppy and filled our souls! Thank you Lehman Family for sharing Ripley Retreat with us!

Relaxing at Ripley Beach
The cabin and property was wonderful. Our weather did not cooperate as much as we would of liked but even in the rain we enjoyed the cabin stay and had a couple of days of beach time swimming and playing in the lake and lounging on the beach. We were able to do a lot of fishing and had a great time on the lake fishing, watching eagles in their nesting area and also a family of loons. Beautiful lake and area. Enjoyed every moment.

Nice fishing for young teenagers
Took grandson’s fishing for a week. Great small lake to catch bass and pike. Cabin was a nice size for the 4 of us. Paul was great to work with. Loved the bakery, coffee shop, and bait shops in Spooner. Spooner has a nice grocery store. Practiced baseball in Shell Lake. Watched movies at night on Netflix.

Great place to stay!
We had a wonderful time at Ripley Retreat. The house was very clean upon arrival and checking in was easy. The place was the perfect size for our family of 5 with enough room to sleep as well as spread out when needed. We enjoyed ice fishing with tipups and were able to catch a few Northerns and Bass not too far from shore. We would love to stay here again! Thanks!

All the basics for a great getaway!
Last minute fall weekend getaway. Serene Lake in just the right location. Had everything we needed for planned meals at home with quick excursions to Hunt Hill, Hayward, and the Namekagon. The dock was still in - chased around some grebes, otters, and watches the bald eagles build a nest. Nothing else I could want for. Thanks.

Enjoyed Our Stay, But Have Some Suggestions
We generally enjoyed our stay. the location is beautiful and we enjoyed the beauty and serenity of the lake and the surrounding area. We do have some suggestions. First, we believe there should be blinds or curtains on the front door and the side patio doors as someone could see in the cabin from the outside. We did not feel totally comfortable because of this. Second, we noted there to be cleaning supplies under the kitchen and bathroom sinks. This could be potentially dangerous to small children as well as having access to kitchen drawers that contain sharp or dangerous items. I was a child protection investigator for 25 years and part of my job was pointing out potential child safety hazards to parents. Yes, the parents are responsible for their children's well being, but the owners do have a responsibility in providing a safe environment. Third, we were put off by the owner's statement that guests could be charged an extra $100 if they checked out after 11:00 AM without previous notice or if they did not adequately clean the residence. This seemed rather threatening in nature and somewhat insulting. In all likelihood, we will not stay at this cabin again.

The Perfect Getaway
We absolutely adore this cabin and all that it has to offer. We spent most of our time outside enjoying the level beachfront (perfect for little kids) and fishing off the dock. The inside of the cabin is fully stocked with anything you would need. The mattresses are a bit tired but, everything else A+. The owners are fantastic and prompt to respond. This was our 4th time here and we look forward to many more. Highly recommend!
