About this property

Haven on Hale Lake! Pokegama down the street!

The whole family will enjoy this relaxing place to stay! 3 bedroom cabin on Hale Lake. Enjoy fishing, kayaking, paddle boarding and swimming! (2 paddle boards and 2 kayaks included). Bring your boat to put on 6700 acre Lake Pokegama just down the street!

Roast marshmallows on the back yard fire pit overlooking the lake while playing various supplied yard games. Screened in porch for buggy evenings! Updated kitchen with granite countertops! Your whole family will enjoy this cheerful place!

The Space:
This three bedroom/1 bath cabin has an open floor plan with the dining room, kitchen, and living room open to each other. This area is very well lit and has two windows facing the lake with a great view! Each bedroom has a dresser and closet and a quilt covered bed. There’s also a queen pullout couch in the living room. A desk with high-res 27” monitor is ready for your laptop if you need to catch up on any office work while you’re away with excellent WiFi available thru the house. Enjoy sunny days on the deck, fishing or water activities down by the dock, and yard games and fires in the back yard!

Other things to note:
There is no public access to Hale Lake that accommodates boats on trailers. This really keeps the lake nice and quiet. If you have a boat you want to bring, the landing for Pokegama is just down the street!

Family Vacation
We had a great stay at Hale Lake. We were able to visit family and have a family fish fry. House was well stocked right down to the Insta Pot I was able to cook my Corn on the cob in. I would stay at this property again.

Family Getaway
The location was great, so easy to get into town. Very nicely updated and decorated cabin and very comfortable for the two of us and our dogs! The screened in porch had some holes in the screen door, etc so didn’t use it. Also the gas grill was pretty rusty and dirty so couldn’t use that either. Otherwise pretty views of the lake and nice stay.

Nice little house on lake
Nice little house on lake with nice backyard and fire pit with chairs, can’t cook on fire pit so they have a separate grill, clean and has all the utensils and plates/cups needed, need to bring your own soap/shampoo, plenty of towels and bedding, had one pack and play and travel bassinet, need to take out your own garbage and wash all dishes before leaving, they have two kayaks and paddle boards that we didn’t try, dock doesnt have a railing so didn’t take little kids out for fishing, wished the Curtains were blackout like at hotels but just used a shirt to cover my eyes as the sun came up at 5am, easy to check in, fun time.

Family weekend
This was the best stocked and decorated VRBO that I’ve ever stayed at. Instapot? Yes. Knives that you can actually chop with. Double check. Extra towels, extra linens, and Lordy….a fricking cabinet that has spices left by prior renters so you don’t have to drop$100 if you want to cook something. The best part? The mattresses appeared to be new because they were lovely to sleep on. Loved it! Slow clap! Thanks so much.

Overall our stay was great! There was some issues left from the previous guest that wasn’t the owners fault. They worked quickly to fix the issue and made sure to make it right!

The 4 of us stayed here in Feb 2023 and so enjoyed our time we booked again. It is cozy, clean, and all the amenities we need. Heidi was quick to get back to me with any questions we had. This was so relaxing we have booked again for May 2024 and added a night. We can't wait to go back.

Wonderful house, everything we were hoping for! We’ll maintained property, very nice spacious bedrooms, great kitchen and living area, large dining room table for group meals. This VRBO also had kids toys that were a lot of fun for our toddler! We saw quite a few deer passing by on the lake below and had a wonderful time.

Getaway with precious friends,
This was such a relaxing time with girlfriends. One has moved away and we wanted to have time together for cards, movies, laughs and heart to heart chats. This was such a cozy place and we were all very comfortable. We brought our food and cooked it there. Heidi was always available for questions and responded right away. We want to come back again but stay longer next time. We would definitely recommend.

This is a GREAT home. We travel a lot for cross country skiing and have stayed in many vacation-rentals in MN, WI and MI. This was definitely one of the best places we stayed at. The host was very accommodating. Thank you for sharing this nice home with us.

Beautiful Lake home.
Haven on Hale Lake is a beautiful home on Hale Lake with views of Pokegama across the street! We had a large group of 2 adults, 3 teens and 2 six year olds. There was plenty of room for everyone to relax and spend time together. The beds were super comfy and the host was so considerate to provide extra linens, pillows and blankets. The kitchen is well stocked and I was able to easily cook for our big family. The home was immaculate and everything was fresh and seemed brand new. We can't wait to visit during the summer to enjoy the beautiful Lake!
