Great family week at the Great Escape!

Property is as described. Fully stocked kitchen, plenty of towels, blankets and other supplies. Beds were very comfortable. This property is located in a very quiet, peaceful and private location. The spacious deck and screened porch were favorite hangout spaces. The lake is great for fishing! Caught enough fish for a couple meals and even more to take home. Owners very easy to communicate with and very responsive to our questions. Highly recommend this property, would rent again!

Annual Family Vacation

My family has been camping in Hayward for over 20 years, and this year we decided to do a Vrbo. We were so happy with our experience at the Great Escape! The house was clean, fully stocked, and the owners were very responsive. The house was very private, and the views were beautiful. We will definitely stay here again!

Great location

House was plenty big enough for our family and had all the amenities we needed. Liked the fact that the property had a path and level walk to the dock and that it had a spot to clean fish. The dock had a bench at the end which was nice for fishing around the dock. Thanks for allowing us to spend our vacation at your property. Thanks for

Great Cabin in a beautiful setting.

Every year our group gets together to relax and do some fishing. This year we tried something new and chose this cabin in the beautiful Hayward area. We were not disappointed. Quiet beautiful setting, wood burning fireplace, our own dock, and plenty of room for the 7 of us. We will definitely be back.

Iowa Family Fishing Trip in Wisconsin

We love Hayward and have since the early 2000s. We've stayed on various lakes. Fished and mountain biked. This place calls us back year after year. The Chippewa Flowage and this VRBO were the best we've stayed at and on thus far. Everything was perfect. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will be back.

The Great Escape: Chippewa Flowage

Our stay was great. The property was very well maintained and clean. It is a very nice, quality home and was just as described. A key item was that they provided so many extras that others dont, extra pots, pans, utensils, bags, lighters, you name it. They had a great firepit with unlimited dry wood, very nice. And best of all was the location. Very quiet, private and if you have a boat (we did) the dock and dock location cant be beat. Over all : Very nice.

Truly A Great Escape!

My wife & I just finished up a month in this wonderful house. It was “just as described” - which is refreshing.Visiting friends & family were delighted at the property and its amazing location. Lake Chippewa is one of America’s largest “wilderness lakes”! 25-square miles of virtually undisturbed shoreline. Bald eagles, loons, deer, an unbelievable amount of wildlife. This has to be one of the most magnificent VRBO rentals in the North Woods!! We could not be more pleased with our stay at THE GREAT ESCAPE.

Very nice home on one of the best lakes in Wisconsin

Been to the area many times, first stay at this property. The home is very nice--full of everything you'll need for a week of vacation. It's nice that the home is so well stocked! Everything was clean and welcoming. The host was easy to communicate with. Chippewa Flowage is an absolutely beautiful body of water. It's mostly wilderness and wildlife abounds. If you're staying here, it's a waste to not have a boat. The home sits on a narrow, quiet cove, which is nice, but you won't get a real feel/view of the lake without a boat. We rented a pontoon for the week, which we used a lot. It was a good sized boat and tying it up securely to the dock took some creativity since there are no cleats on the dock. If you're going to dock a boat, definitely bring your own ropes and a couple large carabiners. There were a couple ropes left on the dock, which helped, but it took some real effort to tie the boat securely enough to withstand whatever wind/storms could occur. A couple dock cleats would be a VERY welcome addition. Fishing from the dock was pretty good, got a few pike, a few bass, and a single perch. There wasn't much in the way of panfish, but that's okay. The firepit is really nice and we used that one night. Overall, I highly recommend this home!

Beautiful cabin and location

We were so pleased with The Great Escape cabin. Ann was wonderful to work with and was always quick to respond and accommodate. Ann agreed to allow 12 people when I asked if we could bring an air mattress. The kitchen had EVERYTHING you would need. The cabin is secluded and peaceful. It’s a tough lake to fish because it’s so large, but we figured it out toward the end of the week. Fishing off the dock wasn’t fruitful, but I think it’s because the lake was two feet lower than normal. I highly recommend this cabin!!! So beautiful!
