Verna's Good 'Nuff Cozy Cabin on East Rush Lake!
Charming, rustic cabin on East Rush Lake in Rush City. Lakeside, tin roof screen porch faces west to watch beautiful sunsets or listen to the rain fall down. Kids will love the tree swing in the yard. Fire pit ring down by the lake shore. The BEST sunsets. Lower level of cabin is pet-friendly (see note below). This little place has everything you need for a real cabin experience that Laverne would love to see you have in her old place! Dock access and 2 kayaks for use. 2 restaurants on the lake accessible by boat!

Great place with everything we needed for a long w/e away. Beautiful view, gorgeous sunsets. Loved the screened porch being able to sit outside even with a light rain. Visited a winery and several nearby restaurants. Perfect spot….we will be back!
The six of us had a very enjoyable stay at Verna's. While it is small it met all of our needs for the weekend. With six people we were excited to see that while there was only one bathroom, there was a second toilet. We made good use of the screened room. As we told Katy, we had to leave early due to a malfunctioning boat motor. Cabin was clean and well kept.
Beautiful spot on East Rush Lake. Adorable cabin, stocked well, clean, cozy!
Katy was amazing and patient. She answered all my questions in a timely manner!
Our family truly enjoyed our stay!

Thanks so much Katie! It was a pleasure to have such a considerate guest. I hope you and your family return. :)
We loved this cabin and the chance to watch the sunset from the enclosed back porch. The kitchen is well stocked with pretty much everything you'd need to cook, the bathrooms have the FLUFFIEST towels I've ever seen in any lodging, and the sound of the lake is so soothing. We were disappointed in the WiFi (connections didn't last long), but everything else was absolutely lovely. So many places to hang out, inside and out. It's a great place to stay!

Hi Angela! So glad you enjoyed the cabin. I know the wifi situation has been a struggle. This old cabin isn't equipped with any wiring for it so we've been using extenders from our cabin next door but you're not the first to have issues with this... I think I will look into figuring out how to get this upgraded for next season. Appreciate your honest, but kind review!
We had a great time at Rush Lake, only down fall was that we kept having to reset the hot water heater.

About the host
Hosted by Katy Kiek
My name is Katy, Minnesota born and raised. Long time lover of being on the water, and home-improvement projects. I’ve spent countless hours working on this little cabin with my dad. My parents acquired the property next door to their original cabin, and intended for little Verna’s to be torn down and built-on, but after watching it sit there unoccupied for a couple years I convinced them to let me “fix up” the old cabin so we could utilize the extra space for family and friends. My family and I have been spending our summers at this lake for the past 8 years or so, and it’s one of my favorite places to be in all seasons of the year.
Why they chose this property
This cabin has fantastic character! Originally built in the 60’s by a thrifty builder, made from “leftovers” he stashed away for years. After he passed, he left the cabin to his 2 daughters, one of them named Laverne (who my parents bought the cabin from). I love the older single-hung windows, plastered walls, hand-made fireplace, and weathered doors. Hand-prints are still left on the rafters from the dirty hands of the framers. We’ve found so many cute little things in this place that you will find on display in the cabin, such as an old fishing map from the 70’s and some old handmade boat anchors. This cabin has been so well-used for decades that you can be carefree staying here and your pets can be included in your vacation without worry!
What makes this property unique
Such a short distance from the cities, this is the perfect getaway. The layout of this cabin is unique with the sleeping upstairs and the kitchen/dining downstairs in the “basement”. You come out the kitchen door into the screen porch that faces the lake and in the summers, you can leave the doors open and let the outside in. The floors downstairs are aged concrete - so no need to worry about kids running in with wet swimsuits off the lake!
