Photos and Description of the Hayward vacation house rental
House, 4 Bedrooms + Loft, 3 Baths, (Sleeps 10-12)

Welcome to 'Our Great Escape,' LLC. Isn't is time you 'escaped' the fast-paced craziness of today's world and took a step back in time to a simpler way of life?

OGE is located just 16 miles East of Hayward, WI off of Hwy. 77, and then 8 Miles North on 'Upper A.' Hayward features charming shops, the Fresh Water Fishing Hall of Fame, numerous festivals, and a variety of attractions. Just 7 miles from your front door is a full-service convenience/ bait and tackle store for those last minute and emergency needs to include boat and auto gas. There are several dining/supper clubs and restaurants including a couple on Lost Land Lake, as well as golf courses, riding stables, and boat repair; all within a short driving distance. The upscale Ranch style home sits just 50 feet back from 183 feet of sugar sand beach featuring a Western view of soaring bald eagles, loons, and spectacular sunsets. OGE's panoramic front porch is located in Wilson Bay just inside Green Point on the quiet waters of Lost Land Lake, and the Chequamegon National Forest is your surrounding Northwoods home. Lost Land Lake is a 1304-acre gem connected by thoroughfare to 1049-acre Teal Lake; they are the 'Quiet Lakes;' lakes with a 10mph speed limit and no motorized watersports to include: no water-skiing, jet-sking, tubing, or motor-trolling; these activities are not allowed at any time.

Included in your rental is a 40' long dock with bench seat for summer night stargazing,lounging, and of course fishing for the little ones in your group. Also included is a 14' V-hull 4-seat Alumacraft boat. Additional boat, boat motor, and/or pontoon rental is available from Wilson Bay Lodge just 5 minutes away by boat or car. So, whether you are an avid fisherman, nature lover, canoe or kayak enthusiast, or just want to unwind, it's all waiting for you, not just outside... but inside as well. It is OGE's desire that you experience the peace and quiet of lake living during your stay, while enjoying all the comforts of home.

The Ranch home is 1 1/2 stories with all rooms on one level, except the bedroom loft that overlooks the Great Room with its' two-story river rock fireplace, and the finished full-service laundry room located in the basement. The open-floor plan is not only conducive to entertaining and socializing, but there are views of the lake from almost every room. In fact, the West facing windows and French doors in the kitchen, Great Room, and one of the two master en-suite bedrooms, bring the outdoors in to you. The fully equipped kitchen has all the expected conveniences plus stainless appliances, and a large center island with seating for four. The dining area is adjacent to the kitchen island and features a large dining room table with a built-in lazy susan that comfortably seats up to ten. There is also a folding 4-seat dining table for up to four toddlers/small children. There are four good size bedrooms- two with connecting en-suite bathrooms, and a third bathroom between two hallway bedrooms.

The cottage was everything and more than we expected. We were here with our daughters, husbands and grandchildren for our 50th wedding anniversary. We had a fabulous time and will always remember the memories we made. Our grandchildren had the times of their lives fishing everyday off the dock. We can't count the number of fish they caughter. We were all very impressed with all the new appliances and the overall cleanliness of the entire house and grounds. If things work out that everyone can get off at the same time again, this will definitely be our first choice of where to go. Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to stay at OGE.

My wife and I have rented other homes from VRBO/Home Away in the past and this by far is the best experience we had. If you read the reviews, look at the pictures, and talk to the owner, you will have no surprises. This home is exactly as represented. It is clean, neat, comfortable, quiet, peaceful and secluded. The sandy shoreline is great and wonderful views of the lake. This house is in the best spot on the lake. Plenty of fish to be caught, saw bald eagles, deer, fox, loons and ducks just from sitting in the screened porch. If I were to own a home on a lake in Wisconsin, this is the house I would want. I can't say enough nice things about this home or the owner. You will not be disappointed. Everything was so easy from going to get a pontoon rental from Jim at Wilson's Bay Lodge on the lake to the welcome package provided by the owner. You will have a great experience here.

My family and I had the pleasure to return to "Our Great Escape" again this year. Another beautiful and relaxing vacation that we all needed. The beauty and quality of the cabin offered us a chance to enjoy each other and to enjoy the breathtaking beauty of nature. A couple days of cooler weather gave us a chance to enjoy it's cozy fireplace and charm, while the rest of the beautiful days gave us the chance to enjoy the beauty of the lake and the wildlife. A truly wonderful place to relax and enjoy the pleasures that life offers. We are already counting down the days to next year!!

Amazing family vacation in the perfect vacation home!!!

My family and I had the most amazing week at OGE!!! Everything about the experience met or exceeded our expectations. I can't say enough about what a fantastic time we had here - absolutely everything we needed was already at the home. We had a large group: 6 adults + 5 kids (ages 2-8) and we had plenty of space and felt very comfortable. The entire week was so incredibly relaxing. It was the perfect place of all of us to be able to just enjoy being together, although there was plenty of space for individuals to have quiet time for reading, napping, etc. The property is beautifully maintained and the owner attended to every detail we needed both before and during our stay. The entire house was very clean and comfortable. The beach and swim area was absolutely perfect for the kids in our group - the adults were able to monitor the swimming from the beach without having to always be in the water. The shallow beach was perfect for the youngest kids in our group, and the older kids spent hours jumping off the dock!! We also spent many hours fishing right from the dock, and it was really nice to have the boat come with the property, as we used that every day for fishing outings as well, and just to tool around and see the lake (we rented a motor from Wilson's Bay Lodge, and the folks there were very helpful as well). Much time was spent reading on the front porch - there was plenty of seating for the group. We were able to enjoy a bonfire every night. The area was GREAT for cycling/running/hiking!!! We enjoyed the property so much that we actually never ate out or did any touristy things in Hayward, except to make trips to the store, which was close enough to make it accessible, but far enough away that we truly felt like we were "away from it all". Everything we needed was in the kitchen, and the grill was a very nice amenity, and we especially appreciated having so many of the infant/toddler supplies there that we didn't have to lug along with us. The view from the home was spectacular!! The photos of the property are very accurate. We saw several eagles and enjoyed many gorgeous sunsets. We had a fantastic week - we felt so welcome and well-cared for by the owner - it is obvious he puts a lot of time into making his guests comfortable. My kids are already asking when we can go back!!! Thanks for a truly memorable week, OGE!!!!

My family and I recently stayed at this home for our annual vacation. Our family is large (2 adults + 5 kiddos) and we had extra family visiting (+3 more adults). We cannot say enough about how wonderful the home, location & owner are. Absolutely everything you could want is already in the home. We found the house easy to get around (especially since we have a special needs teen who is in a wheelchair). There is super easy (and short!) access to the dock and lakefront. The owner is very conscienous and thoughtful...anything that might need instructions has them and they are ready and waiting. And, for those Moms out there...the house is the cleanest I have ever encountered when renting a summer home. We had such an amazing time, I know we will be remembering this from years to come. Everything you see in the description and pictures is 100% accurate. The fishermen in our family LOVED the fishing and had great results. The non-fishermen in our party enjoyed the peacefullness of the lake and house. We travelled from Northern Florida to vacation in Hayward and the owner did a fabulous job making sure we had plently of information about the area and activities for everyone. We rode horses at the Spider Lake Riding stables (from the house, it's a right onto 77 and you'll find it on the left in about 2 miles. Great folks there, too. Bought killer bread from the Hayward Bakery downtown. Took a very comfortable day trip to Madeline Island so the kids could see one of the Great Lakes. You won't be dissappointed if you choose to stay here!!!
