Cabin 28

Modern Northwoods Cabin on Little Round Lake – New Pontoon Included!
Enjoy lakefront living in this beautifully designed three-bedroom presidential cabin located on the shores of Little Round Lake in Hayward, Wisconsin. This modern yet rustic getaway was originally designed in the late 1990s by Famous Dave Anderson to capture the charm and feel of his grandmother’s cabin—where he spent summers visiting from Chicago as a child.

The cabin features three queen beds and a sofa sleeper on each level, comfortably sleeping up to 10 guests. Inside, you'll find two full bathrooms, a fully equipped kitchen with a dishwasher, and cozy fireplaces on both levels. The two-story loft opens to a private balcony, while a spacious screened porch offers serene lake views.

Included with your stay is a brand-new Godfrey pontoon boat that seats 10—perfect for fishing, swimming, or enjoying water sports on one of the area’s most scenic lakes. Located just minutes from downtown Hayward, you'll also have easy access to local bars, restaurants, and Northwoods attractions.

This is the ultimate cabin retreat with all the comforts of home and the charm of a classic lakeside escape.

  The cabin. Was big and comfortable and access to both lakes was perfect. We received exceptional help with the pontoon as we preferred one with a canopy. One was brought over to us on the second day of our stay, when the sun came out so it was perfect.
  Light bulbs throughout the cabin need replacing and a bathmat in the lower bathroom should be included. Great stay!

  We rented cabins 28 and 29 for 11 people. We had plenty of spaces to come together for meals and to get away. These cabins are always clean and the staff is responsive and friendly. Pontoons are always clean and in good condition. Aside from the cabin review, Noah Glitto is an amazing fishing guide!

  Have stayed at this resort several times. First stay in this cabin. Enjoyed it very much. Do have two critiques. Beds (especially upstairs bedroom) were terrible. Very hard to sleep. Get a few Casper mattresses cheap and easy to fix. They get delivered in a box. No, I don’t work for them or own stock it’s what I have at home:). Pontoon only went 18mph. Not that big a deal with pontoon but beds would stop me from renting again. Mostly that upstairs bedroom
  Had to switch for downstairs with son who was happy to take the master until he slept in it...

  We recently vacationed with Grand Pines Resort. We stayed in cabin 28 and it was all we wanted plus more! The cabin was spacious and clean and right on the lake. A pontoon was included with our cabin which we used many times. We were located near a convenience store and great bar and grills. When we needed help with something Mandi was just a phone call away and always responsive. We had a wonderful time and highly recommend!

Pontoon very well used-ripped seats and carpet.wonderful lake to be on but would not choose this cabin again. Local restaurants were great, easy access to area attractions, fishing and water activities great!

  Kevin S from Mokena, IL recommends this vacation rental

  The cabin was exactly like it was described in the brochure. We loved the location and the weather was perfect. We had a few small snags though. Our garbage was one of those that were in the cabinet types and we had gnats the entire time we were there when we opened the cabinet door. We found some food in the cabinet that must have fallen out of the garbage. Also we had a handful of electrical devices that were loose. There were two switches and a few outlets that were incredibly loose. As a retired electrician it would take 15 minutes to fix these issues. On the plus side we had a pontoon boat that fit under neath the bridge and were able to get on Big Round, and try our luck fishing. One more thing was when we went to use the extra bed the frame underneath was broke. We immediately contacted Grand Pines about the issue. They seemed like they already knew and told us to use it, which we did as we had four families. Overall a good experience, just slightly disappointed as we went at prime time of the season and paid top dollar.

  Cabin 28 is beautifully decorated and very spacious. Cabin 31 is not. The carpet in 31 is filthy and needs to be replaced. The furnishings are sub-standard and this cabin was not worth the money. I would have complained in person but the office was not open when we checked out on Sunday. Completely different experience depending on what cabin you were staying in.

  Stayed in Cabin 28 the second week in June. The whole family (including 6 young children) were able to come. We spent the week fishing, swimming, and exploring Hayward. The Monday Flea Market is a favorite of ours. This is the first year we have all stayed in a cabin. The location was great and we all had fun. The pontoon that comes with the cabin worked well for the kids. They also caught panfish from the dock. We hope to be able to make the trip again next year.
