Guests love this home’s scenic location.
Enjoy this charming 2 bedroom cabin on Cable Lake in Spooner, Wisconsin.
In the early 1930’s, an old boxcar was skidded across the frozen Cable Lake and became a cozy little cabin. Today, tucked beneath a stand of mature Norway pines, it is a great place to enjoy the solitude and beauty of northern Wisconsin. The large front deck sits right on the waters edge and is a perfect place to relax, watch the loons, bald eagles & sunsets or plan your fishing strategy. Lovely place for up to 4 people.

The space
Cable Lake has a beautiful sandy bottom along the shore for swimming (about 10 feet out and then it can get a little mucky depending on the time of year) with private dock. Public boat landing on lake. Good fishing, fire-pit, charcoal grill, swing set, parking for 2 vehicles.

The two bedrooms are separated by a curtain and the bathroom is off of the back bedroom.

Guest access
The code to the door key pad will be given to you after booking

Note: Access to bathroom is through the master bedroom.

Other things to note
GOOD TO KNOW:
Fire extinguisher is under the kitchen sink.
Main water turn off is in the lean-to off of the back deck.
Don’t be surprised if our cat greets you (Kojak is very gentle and friendly, but please don’t let him in the boxcar or feed him).
Extra supplies and vacuum cleaner are in the master bedroom.
Cleaning supplies are under the sinks.
Extra blankets and pillows are in the dining room hutch & cedar chest.

Where I went to school: High School - Rochester, Minnesota
Our family has been enjoying the Spooner area since the late 80’s as vacationers/cabin owners. In 2014 we moved from Rochester, MN to Spooner permanently and pursued our dream of building a destination coffeehouse, The Dock Coffee. In 2018, we flung open the doors of our new love - Round Man Brewing Company- a vibrant Brewpub with great beer, great food and an amazing team! Being embraced by this wonderful community has been one of the most rewarding experiences of our lives! We hope you enjoy all it has to offer as well!
