Relaxing Getaway

We couldn’t have found a nicer place for a relaxing getaway! The home was so cute, so clean and had everything you would need. It felt like I was visiting my Mom, a place full of love! It was right next to the many bike trails Boulder Junction has and restaurants and shops. Fran was the best host and we will definitely come again!

Great stay!

We had plenty of space for our group of 7. The home is well equipped with ample supplies for cooking and day to day comforts. The location was perfect for our fishing outtings, as well as bike rides to the park and ice cream! The fairy garden was a delight for our granddaughter! Thanks for your hospitality Fran!

Nosey owner

The inside of the house was clean. The outside was kind of a mess with the owner rooming the property almost daily even having lunch at the picnic table. One evening spraying deer spray which smelled awful.

Perfect Northwoods Getaway!

The property was absolutely beautiful, just off of a small stream with a pier, the kids took kayaks down to a joining lakes. We saw deer daily including an albino. We enjoyef bonfires outside several nights. The home was very cozy and spacious, plenty of room for the 5 of us. We had everything we needed and then some. Fran was wonderful, very welcoming and accommodating. Beautiful gardens surrounding the house, and within walking distance of the downtown, the Ice Shanty and just down the road from Gooch's - one of our favorite restaurants. Hope to stay here again.Wish we could never leave. Thank you, Fran!!

Communication is Very Good!

I am unable to comment on the property itself or the area as I was hospitalized the afternoon before my proposed stay. The property owner was very good with communication, she had actually called me to tell how to check in to the home and all of the important information we needed to know. Communication continued to be good after I notified them I was unable to attend. I wish I could comment on the property itself as I was very much looking forward to spending time in the area.

Great Weekend Getaway Spot

Fran, thanks for your hospitality. Sweet Emma’s was perfect for our long weekend trip to Boulder Junction. The house was great for four of us, and we enjoyed drinking wine on the pier after riding the bike trail. Access to the trail was fantastic!

Fran made it easy to check in and the home is supplied with everything we needed. Surprisingly quiet even though the home is on the main road going into Boulder Junction. Fans that Fran supplied were helpful for warm nights. We enjoyed the canoe and kayak on the river right by the house and the bike path right out theFront door.

Incredible Cabin

We stayed a week and loved every minute. The cabin is amazingly well stocked. The kitchen has every conceivable thing you could need for cooking. The cabin is much bigger than the picture show. The river is amazing and there are so many boat options right on the property. It was a great kayak to Boulder Lake. We would stay here again in a heartbeat
