About this property
Quiet countryside escape! Nature, relaxation, adventure abound.
Come enjoy a relaxing vacation at our 34-acre estate! Great for families or for couples that want some peace and quiet. Enjoy many activities on the property and a close hike to Wild River State Park. The property boasts a 15 acre field that frequently has up to 100 deer grazing in the evening. Turkeys and Sandhill Cranes are regular visitors as well. You are welcome to hike the property searching for Morrell Mushrooms (we can point you in the right direction). The property comes with a garden that you are welcome to help yourself from that includes corn, cucumbers, tomatoes, peas, beans and more! The other side of the property has Shitake Mushrooms, plum and apple trees that you are welcome to harvest!
Take a walk down the private gravel road and about a mile away you will be able to enter the state park. You can also drive there and park on the road to hike. Just a few miles from there is the main park entrance that has many hiking trails, horse trails and cross country skiing in the winter (on select days they rent skis).
In the summer, kick back and enjoy the quiet of nature. An above-ground pool is available and often deer and wildlife walk by. Keep an eye out for the barn cats, as they spend time in the field mousing and doing their jobs! As the evenings cool off, feel free to have a fire. Sit in the backyard as the fireflies light up the fields and the frogs start singing in the nearby swamps. If you have horses, it is only a short trot down the road to enter the park which boasts miles of riding trails. We have roughly an acre of fenced-in pasture you are welcome to use, and the barn provides a lean-to for inclimate weather. Please let us know if you will be bringing horses so we can prepare the area.
The fall is beautiful! The trees are changing color and you will be in the heart of some great leaf-looking!
In the winter, head down to Wild River State Park and do some cross country skiing! Select winters they have snowshoeing as well. If you have your own set, you are welcome to use them about the property.
In the spring, the baby animals are running around, flowers are blooming and everything is coming out of hibernation.
Inside the house, enjoy several large screen televisions, including a theater room. Shut the shades, turn down the lights and watch a movie! In the basement is also a pool table and a bar to belly up to. The master bedroom is waiting for you with a king-size Tempur-Pedic mattress. Enjoy a relaxing soak in the master bath's freestanding tub. Each bedroom boasts a memory foam mattress to ensure a restful night after your day's adventures.
Many unmentioned nearby activities include Wild Mountain Water Park and Ski Resort, Wild River Winery, Taylors Falls, Interstate Park, the pot holes, and much more!
Feel free to drop us a message with any other questions. We do not know if we will complete the backyard landscaping/deck this year. Pricing reflects this.

I grew up in Minnesota and my wife in Montana. We love the outdoors, hiking, gardening and being out on the lake. We love sharing our homes so others can have an opportunity to experience nature like we get to live daily.
