My son and I decided to take our annual fishing trip to Wisconsin this year, and after some research on a state travel website, we discovered the delightful Cabins on the Lake in Friendship, Wisconsin. This "off the beaten path" location turned out to be a hidden gem!
Upon calling to inquire about availability, I spoke with Patty, who was incredibly accommodating and friendly. She even allowed us to borrow her little rowboat for the few days we stayed. Patty's hospitality and vision for these cabins are truly remarkable. Despite only living in Friendship for a few years, she has made many friends in the Adams/Friendship community. Just mentioning her name at local restaurants got us some nice perks, likely because she is the mid-day voice on Wisconsin 106.1FM. Listening to her show while fishing on the lake was a unique and enjoyable experience.
Friendship Lake is perfect for fishing and other activities, almost like having a private lake. We caught several bluegill and crappie while trolling around the lake. However, be wary of the weeds; we had to clean the trolling motor frequently, though a machine was working hard to clear them up.
As for the cabin, we stayed in Cabin #1, which was spacious and well-equipped. The living room/dining room had a pull-out bed, and the kitchen included a full fridge, coffee maker, microwave, and dishes for our use. The bedroom had two double beds, and the cabin had a full bathroom, plus wi-fi and cable television (with a Roku TV in the bedroom). The cost for nearly a full week in the big cabin was comparable to a single night in downtown Chicago—such great value!
We will definitely be back! Thank you, Patty, for your wonderful...
Read morePatti and Eddie saved our summer vacation! After our preliminary vaca plans were abruptly ruined we needed to find a place within a week that fit our needs and wants. I started searching the internet, when cabins on the lake popped up as a possibility. I immediately called and spoke with Patti. She was extremely friendly on the phone and answered my biggest question, “She had an availability” on the lake. I snagged it!! As we live in the midwest, it was an easy drive for 2 senior citizens. When we arrived we were met by Eddie who was very nice. He checked us in and showed us to our cabin. I noticed immediately the cabins inside and out are under construction and being renovated, so I was a little worried what I got us into. However because the price of the cabin was so affordable and the fact it was right on the lake plus at the last minute, we were not going to complain! The cabins are not the biggest but has everything you would need for a week or weekend get away! Bed, shower, tv, wifi, and kitchen with most everything you need. Best of all the deck has ample seating to sit and watch the lake plus a BBQ grill to grill up some burgers. Patti and Eddie have a great story to share and eventually their cabins will reflect the beauty they...
