The home was AMAZING in every single way. The hosts created such a beautiful space - with more than anyone could hope for. They had baby stuff, a pack and play, fishing gear, and dropped off an extra pair of snow pants for us on the fly! It has a lot of space, so you can spread out without feeling on top of each other. Our son LOVED the sauna. Definitely coming back again!

Nice place to relax after long days of fishing.

We came up to go ice fishing on Lake Vermillion and needed a place to stay that wasn't too far away. Lowell and Nancy have a beautiful home tucked in the pines with everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. Highly recommend!

Cozy, clean, & relaxing

LOVED our stay at this beautiful property in Embarrass. The hosts were friendly & so helpful with making sure we had what we needed for our stay. The house was clean and well-kept, everything was labeled and easy to find, and we were able to enjoy some MN nature through the extensive trails on the property. Other highlights: the ping-pong table/pool table, the sauna, and the expansive bedroom with en suite bathroom. Would definitely stay here again and recommend it to others who are in the area!

A beautiful place in northern Minnesota

We came for a golf tournament with our spouses. Men golfed and the ladies shopped in Ely and Tower. Beautifully located for us to go separate ways and come back together in the evening!

Golf weekend

The VRBO was perfect for our stay for our annual golf weekend! 4 bedrooms and 3 baths was perfect for 4 men! It was really nice that the coffee was provided along with some cookies for our sweet tooth! Place is very quiet! Unfortunately Minnesota’s state bird(mosquito) was too active to enjoy the outside fire pit area! (Not onky at the VRBO property but also on the golf courses we played). Wi-Fi was very good!

Giant’s Ridge/Wilderness Golf Trip

Very clean, quiet and no unpleasant surprises. A very nice touch was the Kurieg stocked with a variety of K-cups and the Grandma’s cookies. The pool table was an added bonus for 4 golfers that got rained out one day. Overall, we had an excellent stay.

Relaxing and quiet!

We had everything we needed. The pool table was a hit with everyone. The area just got about 7 inches of fresh snow the day before we arrived and we spent a day at Giants Ridge and the rest of the time just hanging out at the house. We enjoyed walking through the woods on the trails. Would definitely go back if we went to the area again.
