Amazing lake view. Small sandy beach and firm lake bottom. Easy to wade out. No weeds. We enjoyed the fire pit area. Cabin is on the small side but very comfortable. Kitchen is well stocked. Perfect for the wife, me and the dogs. Easy check in and great communication with the owners. Best lake view we’ve ever had.

We have stayed at this darling house several times. We love it! The house has everything that you would need for your stay. It is always very clean and comfortable. The lake views are spectacular! Great outdoor area around a fire pit, and pier for your boat. Young children would definitely enjoy the sandy beach. Very private! Best location on the lake: easy to get to all of the local restaurants. Perfect !!

Relaxing on the shores of Lake Namakagon
Sweet little spot nestled on the edge of the lake - loons, eagles, the lapping of water on the shore, blue sky and pine trees. Everything a couple of city-dwellers needs to decompress and unwind. Great location to explore the woods in the area - mountain biking trails and unique dining experiences nearby. Highly recommend a trip to Delta Diner, we loved it. Chris was a true pleasure to chat with, he couldn't have been more accommodating helping us get situated. Cabin is comfy and has a great vibe. Truly appreciate that we could bring our dog along, she enjoyed it too!

Great Stay!
Had an amazing time with my family! The house was perfect. Clean, comfortable and decorated so well! The property is private, quiet with a beautiful view of the lake! So much to do, fish, swim, boating, kayaking, sitting by the bonfire! Chris the host was so responsive. He was helpful with renting a boat, food recommendations, and even mailing my daughters purse after finding out she left it there. Truly a great experience.

This place has it all! The location is excellent and the view will make it hard to leave! Not only is it a very peaceful setting but my husband and I saw Eagles as we enjoyed our morning coffee...the North Woods is a magical place to begin with and Robins Nest is the perfect place to stay and enjoy it. Cannot wait to visit again!

Fall Colors
The cabin was clean, comfortable, and well equipped with all the essentials. It is located on a quiet peninsula with beautiful views of the lake. We lucked out and caught the colors at their peak. We enjoyed our stay and hope to return again to spend more time on the lake.

Awesome stay!
We had an awesome week-long stay here! The location is suberb, with a great view over the central part of Lake Namakagon. The private dock with available boat lift was a huge plus for us and our pontoon, and we enjoyed paddling the provided kayaks. The cabin has been updated and was very clean. We have rented many cabins on this lake in the past, and this was among the best--perfect for a couple or small group. Hosts Chris and Tammy were fantastic: friendly and flexible when we needed to slightly adjust our stay dates--plus they took the initiative to reach out after we accidentally left a couple of items behind. Highly recommend!

This is a lovely cabin very reminiscent of cabins of yesteryear, but completely updated and very comfortable. The views were stunning and a very quiet surrounding. We did kayaking and hiking on nearby trails, shopping in Cable and overall and a very relaxing week. The cabin and information Chris supplied us with was clear and we no issues.

A Peaceful Northwoods Retreat
This cabin reminded me of my grandma's "up north" cabin --but with plumbing and a beautiful renovation - which makes the cabin very charming. We used the fire pit each night and had some nice fires by the lake. We also rented a boat - which was brought right to our dock by the business owners. The fishing was pretty good - we had a couple nice days of catches. It's a wonderfully peaceful setting - the view of the stars at night was just amazing - so many more than we see here at home. We did drive up to the Superior/Duluth area for a day - it's only about an hour a half - if you are looking for other things to do as well. Chris - the owner was outstanding - so responsive to my questions. We actually got to meet in person as well - A great trip - I would recommend - for small families or couples.
