About this cabin rental

This is a genuine 1928 Sears log cabin built from a cabin kit - yes, a build your own cabin kit. The outside is incredibly preserved and the inside offers a perfect blend of preservation with a touch of modern efficiency. However, between the lake views, sauna, fishing, and meals on the patio, you'll hardly be inside.

Sauna - The sauna is a traditional dry sauna with rocks and an electric heater. It is a barrel design which is recommended for 2-4 people and can reach temperatures of around 180.

We also offer free private docking for up to 4 small/medium size boats just 100 yards from the mouth of the channel. Mooring whips are provided, but if north/northeast winds are ever predicted to approach 20MPH, boat owners will want to temporarily pull out or rent a guest slip at Sawmill.

Finally, we offer 24/7 complimentary gym access at our local gym just down the road (~2 miles).

This a genuine family run business (mom, dad and son) and a real family summer home.


Location:

The Cabin sits on a private peninusla once known as Torquatus Island. Don't Google it - it can't be found. Anyways, Torquatus Island ceased to exist sometime in the 80s when the late Bud McCarty constructed the island's first breakwall thereby turning the island into a peninsula. Then, in the 90s, my dad bought the log cabin next door to Bud's place. Fast forward to today, having pooled our funds to buy & relocate to Bud's former home, our family would now like to offer our historic log cabin for rent. We'll be your only neighbors on the "island", but we're pretty tame these days and promise not to bother you :)
