My youngest daughter was married with reception in Albert Lea and all of us were from out of town needing a central hangout spot. Our families include all ages. Everyone raved again and again how perfect this cabin met our needs, especially as the weather was bitter cold and we spent so much time in doors. Highly recommend and would definitely come back if the need arose.

Highly recommend this spacious well cared for property. Perfect place for a family get together (4 siblings and spouses). It was a great space to gather and also have some quiet privacy. All the little touches made it feel like home away from home. It is stocked with everything you need for a truly a stress free stay. Loved the screened-in porch and fire pit.

This was by far the best equipped rental we’ve ever stayed in. They have thought of everything. We had ages 5 to 75 and everyone found what they needed. The kids had tons of toys and things to stay entertained. The grandparents could relax on the screen porch and enjoy the view. We hope to return again.

Great house for family vacation

The house was big enough for our family yet cozy enough to make us feel at home. So many things to do and fishing and kayaking was perfect I would highly recommend it for anyone wanting a family getaway.

About the host

Hosted by Kevin Ross

Host profile image
Kevin and I have been blessed to spend family time at our relatives lake homes since our children were born. We wanted to be able to share that with our family and friends. Our goal was also to open that experience up to the community. We wanted to create a space to slow down and enjoy the outdoors.

~ Kevin and Emily ~

Why they chose this property

We immediately fell in love with this log home. We found it when driving home from our child's summer camp. It provides great space to come together as a big group but still allows moments of solitude. The yard and garden are great for games and relaxation. It has a great story and ties the history of the property into this newer home.

What makes this property unique

** 4 Bedrooms - 2.5 Baths - sleeps up to 14
** Toys for all ages: kayaks, canoe, life jackets, fishing poles, snow shoes, baseball gloves, basketballs, toddler and preschool toys on every level
** Heated garage rec room - air hockey, foosball, jukebox
** Lower Level game room - lots of board games, puzzles, card games
** Relaxing screened in porch
** Well equipped kitchen
** Garden loft with a reading nook and secret kids only play area
** In floor heat - never have cold feet!
** Perennial, herb and vegetable gardens
