Relaxing getaway
The house was very comfortable and spacious--loved the layout, it had a pleasant "open" feel and lovely view of the lake. We had everything we needed with kitchen, laundry, balcony and deck, bedding and towels, and boats were a big plus. The tap water tasted clean and very good, which is not always the case on vacation! Fishing for northern was good from kayaks and we could catch some bluegills and bass off the pier. We went at the end of May, and the mosquitoes were fierce on the first day when it was rainy and cloudy, but not nearly as bad on the sunny, slightly windy days. The lake was very weedy, but a machine was working on cutting down the weeds while we were there. We spent one afternoon at Fawn-Doe-Rosa wildlife park, which was delightful--great place to take children to see animals up close. Also went hiking at Interstate Park, which has spectacular scenery for short hikes. Overall we enjoyed our stay very much and would gladly come back again!

Great Vacation
It was very a nice place to stay. It had a lot of accomodations. Everything worked out. The only thing that would be an improvement is the wi-fi but it was also nice to have that good quality family time without the screen time. Great fishing and the quality times

Successful Fishing Trip
My brothers-in-law and I stayed at this cabin for a fishing weekend and had a great time. Though White Ash Lake is small, we caught a lot of fish including some larger Northern and Bass. The cabin itself is comfortable and clean and was a good space for the three of us. The only drawback to note is there is no WiFi, so be prepared if you need cell service. We hope to be back again next year!

Fantastic
Loved the location, bring your fishing pole. The kids can catch plenty of fish off the dock. If your lucky you can catch the 24" northern I returned to the lake, just from fishing from the dock with a top water. The owners were very welcoming. There are plenty of things to keep you occupied. The beds were comfortable. Plenty of room for everyone.
