They even have extra equipment if you need anything to make your cabin more functional for you. We loved our visit so much, we booked next year's trip before we even left! See you in 2018, Pine Forest Lodge!

DO NOT STAY HERE!!! FIRST OFF, I'D LIKE TO NOTE THAT WE RENTED THE CABIN THRU "VACASA.COM"…read moreVACATION RENTALS. We also spoke to the onsite owners Missy & Wayne when we arrived at the cabin, about issues we immediately observed. The owners were sarcastic and didn't want to resolve the issues we brought to their attention. They told us to talk to the company that we had made the reservations thru. So here's our experience at The Gateway Lodge & Resort - the "HoneyMoon Cabin" rental. My husband & I rented this cabin for Labor Day weekend. Cabin was so bad we only stayed 1 night (& ONLY stayed that night cause we were too exhausted from driving all day to drive any further to find new lodging). Besides the bugs flying around in the living room/dining room space, there was mold in the bathroom, inadequate very dim lighting throughout cabin (with half the overhead lights in kitchen not working), bedding was old, worn & dirty, kitchen was inadequately stocked (when I opened the silverware drawer there were "3" forks (1 of which the prongs were bent), the only seating provided in the cabin was an old worn dirty futon (with springs poking thru) and a small dining table with 2 uncomfortable chairs), the gas fireplace did not work (even though Vacasa-the property mgmt company we rented from- advertised that there was a working fireplace). When we asked Missy & Wayne about the fireplace not working they laughed & told us that our fireplace hadn't worked in over 2 years and that they had planned to remove it but just hadn't gotten round to it. WiFI didn't work, outside dining table was dirty, the "free" to use canoes were corroded with dirt & looked as though they hadn't been cleaned in a long, long time. Moving on to what appeared to be (3) FIRE/SAFETY HAZARDS INSIDE THE CABIN. 1. PICTURE ATTACHED -In our bedroom, there was a breaker box on the wall. Beside it there was a large handful of long wires that apparently came from the outside of the cabin thru the wall and into the bedroom. They were just hanging there with a piece of tape around them. 2. VIDEO ATTACHED -In the living room-Above the fireplace-sitting on a shelf, is an ancient CD player and sound system that did not appear to work, but were plugged into the same electrical outlet that the fireplace is plugged into. (Keep in mind this gas fireplace was plugged in even though it hadn't worked in over 2 years, according to the owners). You can see there are 4 items plugged into the one wall outlet on the right side of fireplace; and 1 item plugged into the electrical outlet on the left side of fireplace, with numerous wires hanging down & stretched up & around. 3. VIDEO ATTACHED -The inside HVAC unit was not enclosed. Unit was installed inside the bathroom on left hand side (you can see the curtain hanging in front of it in the video). Instead of it being installed with proper enclosure as required by Wisconsin code, It was installed in the bathroom with no enclosure - only a full length curtain to hide it from sight. My husband & I immediately requested a full refund the same night we arrived at the cabin, and are still being given the run around by Vacasa.com property management. I am now pursuing thru the assistance of the WI Dept of Agriculture/Trade & Consumer Protection Bureau!!!!
