Located an hour outside of the Twin Cities the Loon Lookout offers a quick getaway and restful retreat. With two bedrooms, two bathrooms and an additional bunkhouse, this cabin comfortably accommodates up to 10 people. Fully modernized and complete with all the creature comforts of home. Right on the lake- for four seasons of fun, with excellent snowshoeing, fishing & swimming just out your door!
The Lake is yours! Fishing, boating, swimming, floating all right out your door. Bring your swimsuits and fun floatation rafts. Swimming off dock is clear and weed free - you can also explore and find great swimming areas throughout the Balsam Lake chain. The cabin rental comes with access to a row boat and small pontoon paddle boat (non motorized). You can also rent a boat at the Sunnyside Marina (715-485-3393) or bring your own, the Balsam Lake Beach public boat launch is located in close proximity to the cabin.
As the name suggests, common loons abound here in the summer! Wildlife watching, birding and photography are always good options so bring your binoculars and hiking sticks. Explore Balsam Lake or take a day trip, the cabin is close to both WI and MN state parks (Interstate Park in Taylors Falls MN and Crex Meadows near Grantsburg WI are two great places to explore). Wild Mountain is also a quick 20 minute drive away, with fun for the whole family. The cabin is right on the lake but tucked behind Pine Island, so it offers a peaceful lakeshore protected from the wind, nice for lakeside campfires and early morning coffee sunrises.
