Amazing property! Our family (10 of us total) spent a week here this August. By far the highlight of our summer. It was everything we wanted and more. First, the hosts Erin and John were great. Friendly, responsive, professional. The property was perfect. Location was the crown jewel. Secluded, private little sandy bay with perfect views. The house was super nice - efficient space that felt much bigger than the listed square footage. Decor created a chic cabin vibe with many touches of old and new that was so inviting. The house had everything we needed and more - so many board games and toy inside and water toys galore outside. Rent the pontoon boat! Best way to explore all the flowage has to offer. The hosts had it on the dock when we arrived and picked up after we left. Boat was in great shape and worked perfectly. Couldn’t have been easier. Everything was awesome, we hope we can get back to stay again soon.

This stay was amazing! Beach was great, weather was the best we could have asked for. The house was beautiful and accommodating for the entire family, having minimal steps getting down to the lake is a win for us! We’ve been renting cabins around Minong area for years and this was the best yet! Thank you for having us!

This is our second time staying this property and we love it. My niece especially loved the beach and all the toys we could play with inside on our rainy day. Couldn’t ask for a better family vacation spot.

Cozy cottage in the north woods

The host Erin was very responsive and even allowed us to change our dates last minute. we were also able to bring our dog. The property itself is really neat - tons of trees, quiet (except for the sounds of nature), and a great little beach that is tucked into a cove. If you want to grill however, you’ll need to bring your own propane. We found that a little odd, but they did have firewood included, which was a plus. If we ever head back to the Minong flowage, we would strongly consider staying here again.Thanks for sharing your Cottage with us!

Great for families!

Our group had two families with five children ages 18 months to 7 years. We were delighted by the amenities for kids (like trundle beds for kids to sleep near parents, a high chair, toys, etc). We also loved that there were two living spaces so that everyone could spread out. We hope to come back again!

Absolutely Fabulous!

We had an amazing time at Blue Chair Bay! This was our first time booking a trip at Blue Chair Bay with our family. We have been coming to the Minong Flowage for the last 14 years but never stayed here. We highly recommend! The property was as described and more! Erin had a flair for decorating and everything was so homey! Also, the beds are comfortable. We have been so many places with horrible beds. Erin was quick to answer our questions. We had the best time just being with family and laughing. We enjoyed ourselves so much we booked a mini stay in September and our family vacation again next year. We will continue to book with Erin….at least til we can retire and move on the Flowage.😊

Another Fun and Relaxing Stay

This was my and my pups’ 4th annual and my friend’s 3rd annual stay at Blue Chair Bay. There is a reason why it’s an annual trip. Wonderful home, amazing property, and fun amenities. While you can “stay connected” here if needed, it is really easy to disconnect, relax and recharge. Thank you, again, for sharing your slice of heaven!

Fun Family Retreat

This was our first time staying at the Blue Chair Bay and it won’t be our last. Loved the property, shore line, dock, and every necessity you need available to you. Tons of games for our kiddos (3 and 7 YO). We rented a pontoon for the week from John who was recommended by the owners and that worked out wonderfully. We also rented a UTV for a day from Petits in Minong to hit the trails. Beds were comfortable and enough room to spread out for some quiet time to read or watch your own movie. Only bummer was we enjoy taking walks with our pups in the morning and the road out front can be fairly busy with fast traffic. But once we turned off on a side road all was good. hosts were responsive and kind. Definitely recommend! 5 Stars!

3 Generation Family

The house was a perfect fit for our 3 generation family with 6 adults and 3 kids. The central spaces where big enough for all of us to eat and do things together and the 4 bedrooms were private and comfortable. The best part of our stay was the large sandy beach with the gradual lake bottom. We all had a great time. Have already book our stay for next year.
