We had a total of 9 people, all family staying this year. We've been coming to Hayward for over 45 years with our family. This year, we had extended family join us so we had to upgrade to something bigger. This place is amazing! We literally got lost in the house when touring it upon our arrival LOL. The woodwork is beautiful, every room was interesting and beautifully decorated and just right for our taste. The weather was great and we went swimming, tried out the paddleboard and I kayaked for the first time in my life - I'm 53! ;) We caught fish and enjoyed our evenings watching Breaking Bad (my Dad) and playing board games and dice on the nice big kitchen table which supported all of us. Thank you for a wonderful stay. The communication was perfect with the property owner and very accommodating to us. There is one thing I can mention is that tree right smack dab in the front door really needs to be trimmed, or even better, just removed. You have to walk around it to grab the handle to open the door. THANK YOU for a great vacation in Hayward, WI - our favorite place to be. Already looking forward to 2024 :)
