Great location
Left a note for owner on our departure; any issues were not that important. The location was wonderful: easy access to Itasca State Park and to Park Rapids. The dry firewood offered was greatly appreciated, especially after a downpour the night we arrived.

Peaceful place to spend your time
Great place to stay. Dock has a bench, fire pit area is outstanding and has lights. Kayaks were fun to watch the sunset on the water. Comfortable bed and the grill was clean and worked flawlessly. Deck is a great place to soak up the woods. All that and it’s only 20 minutes to Itaska.
