Sunshine Lane Lodge

Sunshine Lane Lodge is a large, lovely cabin in a beautiful and quiet Northwoods setting on Bean Lake. We were a group of 5 friends in our seventies. The cabin was impeccably and appropriately decorated for the setting. Also, the owner included so many thoughtful amenities, such as new toothbrushes, individual shampoo tubes, etc. The kitchen was fabulous, with all new large and small appliances, dishes, cooking utensils, storage containers. Beds were so comfortable! We loved the view of the lake from the huge windows in the living room and the screened-in porch. (Soap bars and a toilet bowl cleaner were needed though.)The outdoor areas were also well thought out, with Adirondack chairs around the fire pit, acorn hole game, seating facing the lake for enjoying the scenery, a table and chairs on a patio and on the large wraparound deck, a dock, kayaks, a float in the lake, a dock, and more. Lawn and gardens were well maintained and decorated.Things a potential renter should know: The scatter rugs on the beautiful floors were slipping. We ended up rolling them up and putting them away for the duration of our stay because we did not want to fall.As two of us have mobility issues, we were disappointed that the two sets of stairs did not have hand rails. My husband, who had a stroke years ago, had to walk backwards down the stairs, which was very dangerous for him. I had asked about safety issues prior to renting and was assured that we would have no problems. Sadly, we did.

Our stay at Sunshine Lane was truly amazing! It is a beautiful property and delighted us at every turn. It was very clean and well appointed. We enjoyed the kitchen and the many hangout areas both inside and outside. Beds were comfy. The manager Justin was responsive, kind, and very good at communicating. We hope to return!!

We booked for a family trip with our son and family. I just wanted a place for the kids to play in the water during the day and roast marshmallows at night. This place did that and more! First, the house is beautiful! So much room. Comfortable furniture and beds. The kitchen had everything you’d need to make meals, including meat thermometers. Screened in porch to listen to the birds while drinking coffee. Great outdoor furniture as well. Downstairs area with easy access to outside. Speaking of which, awesome fire pit with plenty of chairs. The sandy beach area was just what we wanted, the water was so clear and not too deep for the grandkids. Nice quiet lake. Dustin, the property manager was great to work with. We hope to return next year!
