Oak Cabin is one of four rental cabins at our family resort located on a quiet point on beautiful Big Chetac Lake. It also happens to be the cabin the current owners used to live in all summer.
Whether you want to fish, explore nature, or just relax, this comfortable, beautifully-renovated northwoods cabin is for you. Come once, and you'll see why some customers have been coming for over 20, 30, even over 50 years: this northwoods paradise feels like home.
Everything about this cabin, from the vaulted ceilings to the knotty pine tongue-and-groove paneling to the spectacular view of the lake, all say "relax and make yourself at home." And that's what generations of our guests have done. Some come back to Oak Cabin at Nystrom's Resort for their family vacation year after year.

Our location on Big Chetac Lake is great if you just want to stay put, but it's also ideal if you want to get out and shop or see the sights in the Birchwood, Rice Lake or Hayward areas.
