Great vacation home!

We had an amazing time! This is our second time staying here, it’s a beautiful home and clean! Lot is private and quiet. We had our family of 9, kids and adults and we all had a great time on the water, enjoying the sunsets and campfires in the evening. Owners are great to work with. Definitely will be back!

Perfect setting for relaxation and fun!

The cabin was so nice, just as expected. The lake was clear, and the dock and the sandy beach were great. We paddle boarded many times in the clean, clear lake and had so much fun! Most of the time, we were the only ones on the lake. What a great place and location to have fun and relax!

Ox Lake Vacation

We had an amazing time! The house was very clean, and equipped with all our needs. The property owners had an amazing manual to answer our questions and had the fire wood stocked up for cozy fires. The lake access was nice along with the dock. They also had comfy hammocks to rest in. There were multiple towns close to go in and explore too.

Perfect stay

This cabin has everything you would hope for a northern minnesota getaway. There is a perfect, sandy swimming area for kids (and adults), paddleboards and kayaks to take out on the lake, and a well equipped living space for relaxing in at the beginning and end of the day. We all had a great time!

Great Time on Ox Yoke Lake

The property provided a wonderful place for our family to gather. We enjoyed using the kayaks, paddle boards, and fishing off the dock. The solitude and scenery of Ox Yoke Lake gave us a restful and relaxing place to spend time with family. Our time spent at this VRBO certainly met our expectations.

Great home and private lake with small beach area

We had a wonderful stay with something to do for everyone in our family …small kids, teenagers, parents and grandparents. The house was stocked with everything we needed. Clean. Beautiful location. Quiet area but close enough to grocery/hardware/fishing store if you needed anything. Kayaks and paddle boards to use were a great bonus!!

Wonderful Stay

This was a perfect end-of-summer getaway for our family. The house was even more beautiful in person and the location offered a lot of peace and privacy. Our 3 year old loved playing on the sandy beach, watching the loons and looking for fish. We also enjoyed venturing to Walker and Hackensack and riding bikes in the Chippewa National Forest. The house was very clean, well-stocked and met all of our needs. This vacation home checked all the boxes for our family and we hope to visit again!

Peaceful place

This place is very nice. It had everything we needed in the house, and lots to do outside as well - bbq, gas grill, kayaks, paddleboards, hammocks, beautifully clear water- lovely! We brought our boat and kept it at the dock when we weren't fishing. Our hosts were responsive to our needs and we couldn't have asked for more. It was wonderful.

The perfect getaway!

This is our second time staying at this property, and we love it so much! My husband and I and our 3 kids (5, 3, and 8 months) have so much fun playing on the beach, boating (we bring our own and tie it up on the property’s dock), fishing, and taking little trips into Walker and Hackensack. The kitchen is well equipped. The owners are so responsive, and even though they’re on a septic system, you have access to laundry which is so helpful with swim suits and messy kid clothes. We’re always so sad to leave which is a sign of the good times had 🙂

Family fun

The home is beautiful and has pretty much anything you would need. The lake is super clear and very clean. Our whole family loves using the paddle boards and kayaks and the kids through the hammocks were a lot of fun as well. We really loved sitting on the dock and watching the sunset and we had the most perfect view of the start once it got dark. It was really a perfect way to relax and spend some time just enjoying being together. I would definitely recommend this location.

So beautiful… =)

We absolutely loved the property and the lake was amazing! Very clear - you could spot the fish before they took the bait. Loved the beach area too! The slope going down to the beach is steep - be careful of your footing. The dock was large and perfect for bobber fishing, sitting and watching the spectacular sunset. Cabin was clean, beautiful and slightly sound proof as neighbors were closer than expected. We really enjoyed our stay and we plan to book again.*
