About the host

Hosted by Darrin Stuhr

Host profile image
We are the Stuhrs. We purchased the property from the neighboring Kochs in 2020. The property was built by the local builder, Wes Hanson. The property is nestled in 4 acres of woods that was given to the Koch children by their grandfather. The grandchildren built treehouse in the woods and those memories lived out years later in beautifully designed "treetop" cabins in the heart of Crosslake. We hope you enjoy the cabin as much as we do.

What makes this property unique

Crosslake Treetop Escape is a rare blend of rustic charm and modern comfort set high among the woods in Crosslake, MN, offering a “tree‑top” getaway unlike any other. Our two‑bedroom cabin is perfectly appointed for couples or small groups: a fully stocked kitchen, modern amenities, strong WiFi, contactless entry, and a cozy gas fireplace. What makes it really special is the location — perched above 4 acres of pine, birch, and oak with wildlife, foliage, and views all around, yet just minutes away from the Whitefish Chain of Lakes, Crosslake’s shops, trails, and dining. Whatever the season — lake life in summer, snow‑coated tranquility in winter — it delivers a private, peaceful escape in nature without sacrificing comfort.
