Forest Lakes House | Deer Ridge Cabin | Borders BLM | Dog Friendly | Large Deck

3 Bedroom House in Forest Lakes, Bayfield

Welcome to Deer Ridge Cabin — Your Mountain Retreat in the Heart of Nature! Nestled on two private acres of forested land, Deer Ridge Cabin offers direct access to scenic BLM hiking trails right from your backyard. Tucked in a peaceful, private neighborhood near Lake Simpatico, you’ll find the perfect spot for paddleboarding, fishing (no license required), and lakeside picnics. Just 15 minutes away, explore the waters of Vallecito Lake and Lemon Reservoir for even more outdoor fun. Bring your dog with you, too! As the sun sets, Bayfield’s designation as a “dark skies” community turns the front deck into your own personal observatory — ideal for stargazing under a canopy of stars.

Summary: This cabin had everything we were looking for. The gate on the wrap around deck was a huge plus with our dog and small child. The area was quiet and beautiful. Loved all the windows and doors we could open to the outside fresh air. The furniture, sheets, towels were all comfortable. We had access to an empty pantry and big closes. I think the mattresses were new, the king mattresses were extra firm so we did have a bit of a hard time sleeping on them. 100% would rent again.
